Inspired by my own journey with mental health, I founded Girls Talk, our own safe space where we share, listen and support each other.

So get cozy and join me. Adieu Burr for some much-needed Girls Talk.

Hi to my lovely listeners and welcome back to Girls Talk. Before we get into it, I have some very exciting news to share. I'm sure you've already seen it, but I am pregnant. We've come so far together and I'm so excited to share this new chapter with you. Today, we have a truly special episode. Almost a decade ago I had the

privilege of witnessing people, places and things on the West End, a powerful exploration of

addiction, rehab and the journey to self-acceptance. Joining me is the one and only Denise Goff.

Denise discusses reprising her role as Emma, her personal journey with sobriety,

and the lasting impact of people, places and things.

Denise, welcome to the podcast.

Where are you? Are you at home?

I'm at home, yeah.

Yeah, so exhausted.

Yeah, but like, yeah, I'm exhausted, but I'm also full of power.

Yeah.

Does that make sense?

Do you know what I mean?

Yeah.

I wonder if you feel that they've been pregnant. It can go either way, can't it?

One of my sisters felt like she had all of this power, even though she was tired, because you're doing something quite.

I'm not saying what I'm doing is making a baby.

I mean, close. It's close.

And there's definitely something in it because I'm older and I'm more experienced.

And it's far deeper than it was the first time.
