Ever wished you could recapture the joy and freedom of your playful childhood? Dr Mickey James, a passionate researcher of play at Swansea University and the founder of Girls to the Front, knows how to reignite that lost spark.

Learn more about Mickey's transformation from a rule-abiding child to a rule-breaking adult, a journey that is bound to resonate and inspire you. Listen as she passionately shares her mission to empower young girls to value their unique abilities and dare to dream beyond societal expectations by being unafraid to take up space. We take a closer look at everyday activities and how they harbor the potential for immense joy and self-discovery, especially  when we make room for little acts of rebellion and micro-mischief! 

We dive into the irrefutable role of play in building resilience and self-confidence. Mickey then encourages us all to amplify our voices, live authentically and crank the volume, not only on ourselves but those around us too. It's time to embrace our individuality boldly, ignite our rebellious spirits, and join the playful revolution. Are you ready to make some mischief?!

Have you ever felt trapped by the daily grind and responsibilities, shrunk yourself to 'fit in' or followed the rules then realised they didn't bring you the success or happiness you'd been promised?

I wanted to escape but instead of running away, I decided that ordinary is optional, and I could DECIDE to live authentically, put FUN back on the agenda and do more of the things that made me feel alive. This podcast is one of them and through these conversations I'd love nothing more than to be able to help you do the same!
