Angelica Bridges gets behind the Imperfectly Perfect Campaign's Global Efforts.

‘There is no such thing as perfection. To me, it just means being yourself and not worrying about creating an image or having to prove anything to anyone that you are a certain way or anything. People I find will love you more for your honesty, for being who you are, not trying to be someone else because you’ll never align if you are trying to be someone else. The more authentic you are in this life, in this world the easier it is and like you said the more you let go of things, things then get easier and they start to flow and that’s about being Imperfect’ @angelicabridges

A huge honour having the incredible Angelica Bridges getting straight behind our Global Efforts and share her story on the Podcast.

Perhaps best known for her role as “Lt. Taylor Walsh”, on the international television series, “BAYWATCH”, The show which went on to become, “The Most Watched Television Show in the World" and aired in 142 countries, she has appeared in countless movies and tv series, graced the covers of some of the most iconic publications, toured internationally with an early music career, is an author, a businesswoman and philanthropist who not only has her own foundation to give back but helps countless organisations dear to her heart all year round and in the upcoming episode we get to hear about everything.

We go deep and get to know the person behind the profession, the accolades and career, and see where it all began for Angelica

'Helping Girls Glow' with Liv Phyland

Whether she’s surfing, singing, or dancing like there’s nobody watching, Liv Phyland has energy to burn. She’s the television presenter with a genuine lust for life.

Her television debut was in 2011, when she became the host of ABC3’s flagship show Studio3. Then 2015, saw a jump from ABC to host Eleven’s music show The Loop (Network 10), alongside Scott Tweedie.

Indulging in her love for all things lifestyle and adventure, she has also appeared in her own show Liv on the Edge, and her adventure web series Letting Go. In 2019 Liv worked with Discover Japan to create the digital series Discover Japan: Okinawa with Liv Phyland. She also co-hosted two specials for the newly created Network Ten platform 10 Travlr for Tourism NZ in 2019, and Northern Territory, and Cairns in 2020.

She has MC’d events such as the Fun4Kids festival, Cyber Safety Summit, St Kilda Festival, ARIA’s Red Carpet, The Retailer Awards and Tropfest.

We are so excited for you to listen to this episode as Liv delves straight in to the topic at hand with the conversations that we still see been shied away from.

We hear how people can be affected by mental health not just directly, but also indirectly like Liv openly shares on the episode from seeing some of her closest people go through their struggles and how many people still shy away from the subject at hand when they feel they have nothing to contribute to the conversation because they haven't been directly affected personally.

This is such an important episode especially for those who feel exactly like this in not thinking that they have anything to say or advocate for.

The importance of knowing Mental Health can and does effect everyone of us throughout our life being that either directly or like this episode discusses indirectly.

Speaking out and sharing that

“it was the worst, I freaked out,”

and post-show life allowed him to realise he didn’t actually “want” any of the aspects that came alongside fame.

'I had to shut half of me off or I don't believe I would've survived being thrown into fame so quick' with Suzanne Shaw.

Listen to this episode from ImperfectlyPerfect Podcast on Spotify. Suzanne Shaw shot to instant fame in 2001 as part of the winning pop group 'Hearsay' on the very first reality show 'Popstars' in the UK. What followed was a whirlwind career.

Suzanne Shaw shot to instant fame in 2001 as part of the winning pop group ‘Hearsay’ on the very first reality show ‘Popstars’ in the UK. What followed was a whirlwind career. The group’s debut single was the fastest selling non-charitable record in UK chart history, selling over 1.3 million copies. They went on to have 2 number one records and 4 top 10 hits. They had their own Saturday night TV show Hear’say It’s Saturday, performed at the Royal Variety Show with Elton John, and headlined their own hit UK tour. When they split in 2003, Suzanne carved a successful career in musical theatre, plays and television.

At the start of 2020, Suzanne spoke openly about her battle with mental health and that by making some big lifestyle changes it helped reduce her depression and anxiety.

Such an in depth conversation this week with Suzanne, as Founder Glenn Marsden discusses not only a career that has seen some incredible highlights but also what comes with being thrust into stardom at such heights and so quickly. We hear about the effects it can have on your mental wellbeing and how Suzanne navigated through this period, on one hand enjoying her passion of performing on stage but on the other finding herself having to shut half of herself off due to seeing weekly articles on her private life rather than what she was there to do.

We also hear all about her latest project the 'Shaw Happy Plan' in which from such an overwhelming response from her followers and the media with Suzanne documenting her own journey, she developed a movement through her social platform to help so many others worldwide with lifestyle habits and changes.

To find out more information about Suzanne and to keep up to date with her latest projects, you can find her across her social media platforms at: @suzi_shaw

Be sure to also make a donation through her funding page via her socials as she takes on her first Marathon in aid of raising funds for Mental Health.

Atomic Kitten's Natasha Hamilton gets behind the Imperfectly Perfect Campaign's Global Efforts

‘Nobody is perfect. I think people are terrified to grow and get outside of their comfort zone because they are so caught up in trying to portray perfection. The minute I just went, This is Bullshit, I am not perfect. Some days I’m a complete mess. For me, my social media is being authentic to who I am. There will be days when I just show up and I’ll go into my group and I’ll be like; I don’t feel good. I am this ball of energy, but I’m also like this little softie as well. Don’t be afraid, it’s not a weakness. When you acknowledge it, that’s the first step to change.
For me, I just want to use the platforms that I do have to 1: empower people and 2: to take away that pressure that people put on themselves.’

‘Being honest. Being an honest person. I still do and try to be something I am not if I am around a certain environment or if I am speaking to certain people because I feel I am such a terrible person at wanting people to like me, but the minute I am honest, that is ME, that is my RAW. That’s who I am. I have my flaws, I have my faults, I can’t know everything, I can’t be able to do everything but at the same time now give myself the credit where credit is due. So it’s being honest, imperfectly perfect’ - @suzi_shaw

Go out into the world and be exactly who you are. Dr Seuss said; ‘Those who matter, don’t mind and those who mind, don’t matter’and that’s exactly how I want my children and myself.

Are you allowing yourself to be honest? - Jamelia

Navigating Through Life as an Empath with Recording Artist Shay J.

'In a world where we are comparing social media, where we are taught and told to be perfect all of the time. We really need to flip the switch, and know that it is so important to acknowledge our mental health. To acknowledge that it's ok to not always have it together, to always be perfect.

We really need to flip the switch, and know that it is so important to acknowledge our mental health. To acknowledge that it’s ok to not always have it together, to always be perfect. In fact, being imperfectly perfect is what everyone needs to be. It is so important for everybody to really acknowledge that mental health is not something that you should shy away from. ’ We are so grateful Shay J - Former NBA and Canadian Football league dancer turned Triple Threat Canadian Recording Artist who is currently in the process of debuting her new EP Singles Release in Los Angeles joins us in the studio today for an amazing chat about life, about career and shares her own personal story with her mental health and navigating through life as an empath.
