It was a thrill and a pleasure to record my very first Bridechilla live Podcast in front of a fabulous audience in Chicago recently Brideside, in their aptly named ‘babe cave’.In this episode, I chat with Brideside founders Nicole and Sonali about friendship, body image and avoiding confrontation (or just going head-on into it!). Join us as we talk about how a moment of Whoo! Sparked a friendship as well as a business. As any bride, and some bride-to-be’s may well know, the bridesmaids are just as important, even though tensions can arise and friendships may be lost afterwards.A HUGE thanks to all who attended. We’re super keen to organise more live events and hope to come to a venue near you soon!
