Sophie Bradbury Cox Is Living Her Best Rainbow Life 🌈👩‍🦼🛍

In this short episode, Peta shares a personal reflection on 2025, a year defined more by endurance than spark. She talks about living through ongoing illness and injury, the role of work and conversation in keeping her grounded, and the relationships that carried her through a difficult year.

Peta also explains a brief pause to the podcast as she undergoes gallbladder surgery, and shares her hopes for 2026, choosing the word steady over spark.

Thank you for listening, for your patience, and for being part of this community. The podcast will return soon.

The Beauty of Being Blind: Eita London

IVF Journey and Disability Discrimination

Lucy Edwards is a broadcaster, journalist, and one of the most recognisable blind content creators in the world. In this episode, she opens up about losing her sight at 17, building a career online, and why she proudly says, “I love being blind now.”

We talk about the grief of going blind, how she found confidence through storytelling, and her latest venture: launching the accessible beauty brand Etia London. Lucy also shares her IVF journey and the decision to screen for the gene that caused her blindness—a deeply personal and nuanced choice.

This is a powerful conversation about disability, identity, and what it means to take control of your narrative.
