On this week's episode, Lovely Leaky Ladies, Jen and Soph chat to Instagram High Priestess, Sarah Tyrrell (aka @selfloveandsarah) who you might have seen on the Late Late Show recently. Sarah is a body positivity activist, brilliant writer, and goddamn inspiration to all of us who need to get the hell on that self love train (in every sense;)). We sat down to talk about what it was like to become a mum unexpectedly at 19, how she weathered years of severe mental illness, survived an eating disorder and suicidal ideation and came to self acceptance. We also covered how finally in the last year, she ditched having crap sex in favour of "weird" sex, the importance of hanging out naked and most intriguingly, the Irish swingers scene.
