In the eighth podcast episode of Same Shit Different Brain’s third series, Rebecca talks to Leticia Fonseca.

Leticia is a personal finance mentor and she helps people, particularly women, to have a healthier relationship with money. She is the founder of Master Your Finances and a self-proclaimed ‘infectiously positive powerhouse’. Leticia talks about the close relationship between money and how we treat ourselves, after personally discovering the positive financial impact of getting to know and love herself more.

They discuss the resilience Leticia’s built up over the years since experiencing depression when she was younger, and going through a divorce. She shares about the challenges she faced around that time and how she's now found the right practices to build up her self-esteem; and to have a whole new appreciation for life.

They also chat about how Leticia came over from Brazil to London to change her life, ended up working in the city and built a career she loved; and how grateful she is to her younger self for doing that.

In the sixth podcast episode of Same Shit Different Brain’s third series, Rebecca talks to producer for the creative and tech industries, Emma Jackson. 

You may have seen Emma landing a plane with Kevin Bacon in an EE ad. As she likes to put it, she only gets out of bed for world firsts. She racked up millions of views for content produced for Cut Youtube channel, and using entertainment to show diverse role models is a particular joy of hers. She’s proudly and loudly neurodivergent, and they talk about their shared experiences with late diagnosed ADHD.

Emma  inspired Rebecca to talk about her ADHD publicly for the first time in a real-life space, during the Q+A of a panel talk she appeared in. As well as comparing notes on ADHD, they talk about female empowerment and how women can get better at recognising our own achievements, while businesses also need to have fairer systems for advancing people.

Also, how to approach allyship and why we have to put the work in to speak up for people without speaking *over* them; positive psychology and the science of happiness; trauma around ADHD why meditation and somatic processing are so important with neurodivergence; and what it was like to land that plane with Kevin Bacon.
