Spinning Plates with Sophie Ellis-Bextor

In Spinning Plates Sophie speaks to busy working women, who also happen to be mothers, about how they make it work. The contributors are diverse, including entrepreneurs, artists, journalists, CEO’s, musicians and chefs, such as Fearne Cotton, Thomasina Miers, Candice Braithwaite, Caitlin Moran and Sophie’s Mum, Janet Ellis. Each one-hour episode is a relaxed conversation about the expectation of work and the realities of parenting, with all the tears and laughter along the way that you’d expect. For anyone who feels like they have to put on a lot of different hats in their life and play many roles, ‘Spinning Plates’ is the podcast for you.

Sophie says; “Chatting to all these incredible, inspiring women for my podcast has been fascinating. It’s so interesting finding out how everyone has their own way of dealing with the challenges of motherhood and ambition. I talk about it with my girlfriend’s all the time anyway, so it’s been wonderful to have the podcast as a way to be legitimately nosey! I thank every single one of the women I’ve spoken to for their honestly, their good humour and their generosity. I think they will help every working mum out there know we are all in it together.”
