Hello and welcome to another episode of Iway with Jameena Jamil.

0:03.5

You're right. I'm fine. I have been overwhelmed by the amount of wonderful, wonderful DMs

0:10.8

and messages and comments from all of you about, in particular, last week's episode with

0:15.4

Catherine Ryan. She is a fabulous comedian and writer and actress and she was on the show

0:21.4

talking to me about many things to do with feminism and surviving comedy as a woman,

0:26.1

but also she came on and talked to me in depth about a miscarriage that she went through this

1:31.0

about all of this very difficult and nuanced and often quite stigmatised staff together. So thank

1:36.8

you for that. It makes me feel warm and fuzzy and just excited to keep bringing you more of these

1:42.4

conversations that we also desperately need. Today we are covering a very different subject. I am

1:48.7

interviewing my stylist who is also and way more importantly, Celine Dion stylist and then even
