Episode 17 - Behind the Bloggers

Our special guest today is Caitlin Boyle, the voice behind the blog Healthy Tipping Point and author of Operation Beautiful. Her book stems from the Operation Beautiful movement which encourages women to lead more positive and healthy lives... one post-it note at a time.

We put out a call for questions in anticipation of Caitlin's appearance and there was a definite theme among the responses - you asked a lot about the world of blogging. So thank you kindly for giving this episode a clear topic!

These questions were the most popular:

• Do you ever get tired of blogging?
• How do you cope with critical and/or hurtful comments?
• Do you have any tips for newbies?

So today we go BEHIND THE BLOGGERRRRRRS to find out the answers.

We also answer a query that has nothing to do with blogging:

• How do you deal with negative self talk?

Caitlin also chats to us about the Operation Beautiful phenomenon and power of a well-placed Post-It note. Then she takes on the 60 Seconds speed round.

Apologies in advance for a bit of audio fuzziness during Caitlin's interview, not sure what happened there!
