Sunday Sofa Series
This podcast began five years ago as Becoming A Butterfly - a raw, unfiltered space where I shared my story of Mental Health, recovery, and more recently, T1 Diabetes
Over two series, it became a home for messy, honest conversations about stigma, resilience, and figuring out life in your twenties. The name ‘Becoming A Butterfly’ came from my journey with mental health - shutting myself away, keeping myself small, then slowly finding my confidence again
But just like I’ve grown, the podcast has too
What started as Becoming A Butterfly has now evolved into the Sunday Sofa Series - a weekly 15 to 30 minute conversation on life, health, happiness, and healing
It’s still honest, imperfect, and raw - but now with a clearer focus; to give you a Sunday reset, a space to breathe, and a reminder that you’re not alone in whatever you’re navigating
Get comfy and come sit with me on the sofa, SL x
