Should I Delete That?
My big boobs with Jackie Adedeji
This week on the pod, Em and Alex are joined by the brilliant Jackie Adedeji. When Jackie was 11, she woke up to find she had FF cup boobs. She was unable to do the things her peers around her were doing, limited by the size of her breasts. Jackie was shamed into feeling as though her breasts made her a burden, and strongly considered getting a breast reduction. However, she decided practiced body neutrality as a stepping stone towards self acceptance. Jackie is now thriving, but it isn't always easy. Her energy is joyous, and you can follow her on Instagram @ohmygoshitsjackie or check out her Channel 4 documentary here: https://www.channel4.com/programmes/my-big-boobs-untold/on-demand/74692-001

Life as a Woman in the British Army
01:02:16||Ep. 143TW: sexual assault, rape, suicideThis week on the podcast, Em and Alex are joined by Gemma Morgan. When Gemma joined the Army, she discovered very quickly how she had to behave as a woman to get by: prove your strength by pushing yourself harder than you ever thought possible, but ensure you act small enough so you don't step on the toes of your male counterparts. This balancing act proved near impossible under the weight of oppressive misogyny deeply entrenched within the structure of the British Armed Forces, where razors were supplied for men to shape their facial hair while sanitary products for her and others that needed them weren't even a consideration. Gemma's Army career didn't go to plan, with trauma, abuse and PTSD all featuring in her story. She explains how she went from outstanding soldier to suffering a near-fatal mental health crisis, and why she is now demanding change. Gemma found help and hope, and wants to show others that they can too.If you have been affected by any topics in this episode, or you want to talk to someone, you can call the Samaritans free, anytime, at 116 123If you are a member of the Armed Forces community and you need help, you can call Help For Heroes weekdays 9-5 on 0300 303 9888 you can also submit a form anytime at https://www.helpforheroes.org.uk/application/You can buy Gemma's book, Pink Camouflage, here: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pink-Camouflage-soldiers-resilience-leadership/dp/1804251232Follow us on Instagram @shouldideletethatEmail us at shouldideletethatpod@gmail.comEdited by Daisy GrantMusic by Alex AndrewIs It Just Me: My bumhole's not my business
