First, pinch me time â because weâve got the REAL-LIFE LEGEND that is Yotam Ottolenghi on the show! If anyone has ever wondered what the celebrated chef, writer, restaurateur, and veggie rehabilitator Yotam Ottolenghi is truly like, this episode is the perfect introduction. Youâll meet a clever, driven, and utterly charming person whose life mission is to make people happy through food.
We dive into a career that began with unexpected fame and evolved into him becoming one of the worldâs most influential chefs, with over 11 million books sold globally. We decode the âOttolenghi Effectââor why so many of us actually know what sumac and tahini areâand explore the family ties and global collaborations behind the 100 recipes in his latest book, Comfort.
The conversation also touches on the joy and realness of gay parenting, why he created the Ottolenghi Test Kitchen, and his personal take on what "Just Right" means, both in life and in the kitchen. And of course, there are surprisesâincluding the kitchen tools and essentials he uses (and those he doesnât!).
Above all, this episode will leave anyone hungryâhungry for the comfort food that feels like home and inspired by Yotamâs ability to stay creative under pressure. His secret? Collaborating closely with others. As Yotam says, thatâs where the real magic happens.
Comfort, by Yotam Ottolenghi and co-authors Helen Goh, Verena Lochmuller and Tara Wigley is out now.

This episode is a masterclass on how to rebuild when a dream career ends, and how to start again and do it better.
Henry Holland is a fashion designer turned ceramicist renowned for his quintessentially British style, but beneath his playful image lies a belief system and mindset thatâs taken him from a chip shop in Ramsbottom to the catwalks of London, and beyond.
In this episode Melanie and Henry explore his two âinstant successâ stories, how a mental health crisis at university set him up for life, and why his second career is where he found fulfillment.
Find out how Henry sets goals, measures success and stays on an upward trajectory - and prepare for some lessons in Henry Hollandâs secret magic!
This conversation shares a refreshing perspective on the ups and downs involved in finding your just right and why sitting still for long enough to know what to do next, shows us how to do the next right thing and succeed, better.

How does feeling not good enough as a kid impact us when weâre older? What can we do to wise up to a culture that sells us crappy stuff to make us feel better? Does finding the sweet spot of enoughness help?

Aja Barber doesnât sugar coat it. In this conversation Melanie and Aja talk about why most people resist the uncomfortable truth and lean into how Aja got the fire in her belly, why it matters, and how she found enoughness for herself.

Are we doing enough to change the way we shop for clothes? Is the sustainable fashion movement making any progress? Find out the reality in this episode of The Enoughness.
Melanie talks to Rachel Arthur, one of the most influential women in fashion you may never have heard of. Why? Rachel created the United Nations Sustainable Fashion Playbook, a guide for influencers and fashion communicators to inspire us all to buy less crap, and love and appreciate clothes more.
In this episode we trash fashion headlines, dig into influencers on the shill, discuss the joy of renting Ganni, throw shade on Edward Bernays, and share why knowing all this stuff matters.
Rachel also talks about the legislation that could change everything for fast fashion, why she nearly gave it all up, and how, like Goldilocks, she carefully worked out her version of âjust rightâ and changed her life in inspirational ways.

How did Savile Row entrepreneur Patrick Grant become Britainâs best-known advocate against crappy plastic clothes and the owner of an affordable clothing factory in Blackburn? And why did an exploding oven tray and dodgy plug socket result in Less, his 2024 bestselling book about how we can all live happier lives with less but better stuff?
In this conversation, Melanie and Patrick leap from the philosophy of Marcus Aurelius to ÂŁ1 lunches, why he properly loves a factory, and how making things went from a decent everyday job for millions of people, to a pursuit mainly for those with wealth.
Along the way Patrick shares why every twist and turn of his life and varied career - expert on Savile Row tailoring, TV Judge on the BBCâs Sewing Bee, author, and founder of Community Clothing - feeds into his true purpose, to challenge us to reframe what we want, and why we want it.

Getting to the essence of what we need to thrive in life is trial and error for some, and an uphill struggle for others. Something successful author and beauty editor Sali Hughes knows only too well because sheâs lived on both sides of the poverty divide.
In this conversation Melanie and Sali talk about the craziness of skincare misinformation - salmon sperm, anyone? - the joy of Chanel, why hyaluronic acid is not what you think it is, and the spark that ignited her hygiene poverty charity Beauty Banks.
Along the way, Sali shares the impact online trolls had on her mental health and how she recovered, the childhood reasons behind her love of a full fridge, her no-nonsense take on manifestation culture, and the Enoughness gem - how many skincare products we actually need.

After achieving his PHD in Public Health Dr Brett Staniland did something crazy, he shifted his career to fashion, bringing his academic love of a fancy fact with him. Today, the 30-year-old model, activist and identical twin is on a mission to inspire the Love Island generation to make positive change - and, so far, heâs nailing it.
Thanks to Brettâs subtle activism while appearing on the show, Love Island dropped their fast fashion sponsors for eBay, sparking a culture shift towards pre-loved clothes, but thatâs not enough for Brett.
In this conversation, Melanie and Brett talk about the desire for impact, how to stay focussed on your purpose and why long-term wins are always better than quick fixes.
Along the way Brett opens up about online abuse, his working-class Derbyshire roots, and why his favourite item of clothing is a womenâs suit by Lemaire - for himself!
And Brett shares how to build the perfect menâs wardrobe and prescribes a new way to shop - best of all, with his approach, everyone wins.

How do we find our good enough? Psychotherapist Jodie Cariss is co-founder of the worldâs first on-demand mental health service, The Self Space, and understands this subject so well she has the tattoo to prove it.
In this conversation Melanie and Jodie discuss where feelings of not good enough come from â hello core beliefs! - and go there with their own too.
They also talk about the importance of creating a space between wanting and having, and why little everyday actions help us find, and stay, in our sweet spot for pleasure and life satisfaction.
Along the way, Jodie opens up about her transformation from kids TV host to founder of a growing mental health business, what lobsters can teach us about change and the unexpected healing power of a Gucci handbag.
Jodieâs book with The Self Space co-founder Chance Marshall - How to Grow Through What You Go Through: Mental Maintenance for Modern Lives - is available now.
