  Happier Grey Podcast Episode 113 - With Julie Kelly

  Aug 14, 202620 minS1

  In this episode I'm chatting to Julie Kelly who chose to ditch the dye 10 years ago. Initially, her hair was still darker at the back, which she didn't love. Over time the back has lightened, to the more even shade she has today. She's also chosen to grow her hair, and embrace it's natural curls. Julie has to be one of the most active guests I've ever interviewed, having completed a London to Paris cycle ride, and a coast-to-coast paddle board trip, in the last few years raising money for cancer charities.

  Happier Grey Podcast Episode 111 - With Helen Hirsh Spence

  Jul 17, 202623 minS1

  In this episode I'm chatting with Helen Hirsh Spence, who ditched the dye during Lockdown. She'd started to challenge her inner ageist before she started the grow out, and saw the transformation as a visible demonstration of her new mindset. Helen has done lots of things in her life, and in keen to continue to do so. In the past decade she became an age provocateur, advancing a new stage of life, elderhood. Her TeDEX talk "Embrace Age with a Longevity Mindset" had more than 100,000 views in the first week, and she's also written a book "Reset: Making the Most of the Rest of you Life".

  Happier Grey Podcast Episode 110 - With Meg McKeen

  Jul 3, 202629 minS1

  In this episode I'm chatting to Meg McKeen, who ditched dye at 40. She'd previously been dyeing it jet black, so she had the full skunk stripe during her grow out. Her grey hair transition coincided with a major period of change in her life, with a relationship break-up, her grandmother dying, the early stages her own business, and choosing to sell up and travel full time all happening around the same time. Now at 47, Meg loves her silver hair, and the life she's created.

  Happier Grey Podcast Episode 109 - With Mia Maugé

  Jun 19, 202632 minS1

  In this episode I'm chatting to Mia Maugé, who ditched the dye in 2016. She made the decision for a number of reasons, but I love that encouragement from her daughters was one of them. They had friends who were dyeing their hair platinum, and thought their mother would like great with it too. Mia started her Instagram page in 2020, because she was frustrated by the lack of representation of people like her by fashion and beauty brands. The page quickly led to her being scouted by modelling agencies, and finding a community of silver sisters.

  Happier Grey Podcast Episode 108 - With Sue Whitaker

  Jun 5, 202624 minS1

  In this episode I'm chatting to Sue Whitaker who originally started dyeing her hair whilst working in a corporate environment, after senior managers suggested she would be taken more seriously if she wore more make-up, switched her trousers for dresses, and had neater hair. Sue grew her colour out in Lockdown, and found them middle stages of her grow out the most challenging. Whilst her family were very supportive, her work colleagues had plenty to say.
