Charlie Hedges "I look at a no, and go how do I turn it into a yes"

Season 6, Episode 1,   Jan 01, 2023, 08:02 PM

Hello and welcome to a brand new season of the Monday Mile podcast. After a little festive break we are back with a bang to inspire you to join us, whilst we walk and talk. This is Season 6 and today we are in central London with a lady who is making an impact on our airwaves. 

She’s a rockstar Mum to her beautiful daughter, and a Radio DJ who presents ON RADIO 1 Live Lounge as part of "Rickie, Melvin and Charlie". Yes, you've guessed, it's Charlie Hedges! Charlie kicked off 2023 for us with a set on the decks, seeing us well into the New Year and is proof of the pudding that you can be a Mum, and pave the way in the media and balance the two.


We chat mood boards and manifesting a dream, how to create and chase that vision for the New Year and beyond, and to never take "no" for an answer. Instead we chat about taking that "no" and turning it into a positive. We dig into Charlie making her way into one of the most popular radio shows in the country, starting out as the tea lady at Kiss Radio as well as juggling a degree and becoming one of the youngest ever breakfast presenters this country has seen. This chat is impactful, inspiring and it’s got me fired up, so I hope it does the same for you too. Happy New Year!

Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on?

Each episode drops on a Monday morning as a bitesize piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week. Sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes, entrepreneurs, doctors, authors and broadcasters ’ secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.
