Shelly Horton: Confidence, Humour, Glam, 1500 Red Carpets - And Her New Book I’m Your PERI Godmother

This week Nicola and Di chat with the funny and vibrant Shelly Horton. Shelly is a bold, outspoken journalist and TV presenter, who has been on our screens in Australia for decades. We chat about her pathway to confidence plus her new book, I’m Your PERI Godmother.  We hear all about how Shelly got her start in TV, the cruel way she was fired for being “too fat”, and how she made her way back onto our screens through a mentor, a goal-setting course, and the power of visualisation and dressing the part.  Shelly gives us some of her highlights from her 6 years as a gossip columnist and the 1500 events she attended in that time - including her favourite celebrities and who was the worst - you’ll want to tune in to hear those stories!  We also talk all about Shelly’s brilliant new book, I’m Your PERI Godmother, which has been described as a hilarious guide to help you survive perimenopause with science, helpful tips and proven treatments. Shelly tells us about her own journey with perimenopause and the way it completely changed her mental health. She talks about her own lack of knowledge in this area, and how she thought menopause was for old ladies. As Shelly says, it’s so important for us all to educate ourselves about perimenopause and then decide what’s best for us. The best part is, Shelly has a way of making this topic fun and we laughed a lot in this interview.  And finally we ask Shelly about her tips for being more confident, and simple things that people can do to feel more prepared if they have a speech coming up.  We absolutely loved chatting with Shelly and it felt like we had a good girlfriend at the back fence with us. We hope you love it as much as we did.  This episode is proudly supported by Montgomery Investment Management, trusted experts helping you build and protect your financial future.
