Conversations with Candice is the podcast where the talks go a little bit deeper. Hosted by two-time Sunday Times bestselling author, broadcaster and cultural commentator Candice Brathwaite, this is a space built for people who are done playing small and ready to rebuild on their own terms. Using the metaphor of building a house, each episode explores a different stage of reconstructing your life, from identity, boundaries and self-trust, to relationships, parenting, ambition, career and emotional healing. Candice speaks honestly about the experiences often left unspoken: parental estrangement, burnout, marriage, friendship and the relentless pressure to “hold everything together”. This isn’t a self-help podcast that lectures. It’s a conversation, warm, honest, sometimes funny and always real. Think auntie’s living room, but make it transformative. For the people navigating work, family, love and personal change who value emotional intelligence, cultural awareness and a no-bullshit approach to growth. Remain Unrealistic.

This is the stage where your new identity stops being internal and starts showing up in the real world for everyone to see, judge, and witness. In this episode, Candice breaks down why the fear you're feeling isn't really about failure, it's about  exposure . She unpacks the three types of people in your audience (supporters, observers, and resistors), why resistors say more about themselves than about you, and how to keep building even when the noise gets loud. We're also covering Candice's practical tools to help you push through: The 48-Hour Rule Naming Your Audience The 10% Expansion Rule Replacing Approval with Evidence If your structure is going up and things are feeling tight, sticky, and scary; that's exactly where you're supposed to be.
