Hello, I'm Sophia Lusbexter and welcome to Spinning Plates, the podcast where I speak to

to busy working women who also happen to be mothers about how they make it work.

I'm a singer and I've released seven albums in between having my five sons aged 16 months to 16 years,

so I spin a few plates myself.

Being a mother can be the most amazing thing,

but can also be hard to find time for yourself and your own ambitions.

I want to be a bit nosy and see how other people balance everything.

Welcome to spinning plates.

Can you hear the music?

I hope it's quite enough in here.

I am talking to you from Portsmouth,

where I've come for a nation radio event.

I'm about to sing for half an hour.

I'm going to be interviewed by Foxy, Neil Foxx, Dr. Fox, as I know him.

And I'll sing a little bit.

And there's a load of lovely people at front who are like competition winners.

And I'm in a hotel and I'm getting ready.

And then I thought, oh, I have to speak to you,

which is a nice thing to do. But yeah, I can hear Prince Kiss coming through the door.

And if you can hear it, quite frankly, that's quite nice, right?

Good song, Prince.

So we've reached the 100th episode.
