The Emma Guns Show
Hayley Quinn | Top tips for Dating in a Digital Age.
Hayley Quinn is a dating and confidence coach who joins me on the podcast to share her expertise on dating, making connections and knowing what you want from and in a relationship.
Hayley is one of the UKโs leading dating coaches and her story of how she came to be one of the leading, and most trusted, authorities on dating, for both men and women, has a slightly unusual beginning. But it was this perspective, the origins of which she shares during our conversation, that allowed her to create her own unique insights, courses and workshops that have helped people in how they approach their own dating life.
In this conversation, Hayley and I discuss:
- Whether there really is a โpower playโ at work when youโre in the dating โgameโ.
- The rules of dating and whether they actually exist or not.
- How to turn text chemistry into a real connection in person (when and where lockdown restrictions allow)
- How to express yourself authentically.
- The dangers of getting hooked on the idea of someone, but why itโs such an easy trap to fall into.
- The value in getting to know yourself before dating.
- Why rejection is a vital part of dating and why itโs vital to learn how to handle it.
- The many and varied, and quite unhelpful, dating โtruismsโ out there.
- Dating after separation, divorce or after the breakdown of a long-term relationship.
- How to communicate what your needs are, and so much moreโฆ

It's not about a 10 lb weight loss, although that's part of it, it's about increasing lean muscle mass and reducing fat and that requires a little tinkering, redirecting and a whole lot more accountability.๐ฐ You can follow Zana Morris on Instagram. ๐ In this video I'm wearing:With Nothing Underneath Boyfriend Shirt, ยฃ110.*contains affiliate links.๐ง Contact me:office@emmaguns.com๐ Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:๐ฑ https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/Never Diet Again!

In this video, I explain the methods I used to stop that cycle, keep the weight off and mend my relationship with food.๐ฐ This video also features an update on my own 10 lb weight loss challenge. ๐ In this video I'm wearing:Vieve Gratitude Attitude Hoodie, ยฃ49.*contains affiliate links.๐ง Contact me:office@emmaguns.com๐ Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:๐ฑ https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/I can't believe these results in just ONE WEEK!

39:06|โ๐ผ Subscribe -- https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-emma-guns-show/id1102982843Setting Myself a Weight Loss Challenge | The Emma Guns Show๐ I have a hankering to lose a little weight. Not just because summer is around the corner but because after two years of maintaining a 40lb weight loss, I fancy another challenge. Just to be clear, I've yo-yo dieted for the majority of my adult life and maintaining this weight loss is something I'm really proud of. The real 'win' though was overcoming something close to binge eating disorder (BED) that involved a highly emotional and irrational response to fake hunger cues. As a result, I was on a 30-year rollercoaster of either restricting, dieting and exercising excessively or eating to excess. Finding the 'happy' medium somewhere between the two has not been easy and though I'm happy with how I look now, I'd like to challenge myself to get even leaner and even stronger. Come with me on this journey?๐ In this video I'm wearing:Branded Moniker 'Emma' Tee, ยฃ25.

32:35|โ๐ผ Subscribe -- https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-emma-guns-show/id1102982843Is Anyone Bio-Hacking Anymore? | The Emma Guns Show๐ I haven't discussed biohacking in any great detail on the podcast for about five years. Back then it felt like something on the tip of the wellness industries tongue and something being embraced by people who wanted to have agency over how they felt. Nowadays, it feels as though biohacking has gone viral with our foods, supplements and gym choices all subtly re-branded to imply a easier route to health and wellness requiring far less effort - just a small little bio-hack here and there.๐ฐ We were discussing it years ago with Wim Hof and Davinia Taylor as well as in the #26habits series, so I though it was time to revisit...๐ง Contact me:office@emmaguns.com๐ Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:๐ฑ https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/Michelle Visage on Making Your Dreams a Reality
01:11:59|โ๐ผ Subscribe -- https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/the-emma-guns-show/id1102982843Michelle Visage on Making Your Dreams a Reality | The Emma Guns Show๐ I love podcasting. I love interviewing people and I adore getting to know somebody, what makes them tick and how they navigate the world and how they approach their lives via an informal chat, like the ones on my podcast feed. However, sometimes there are gems that get lost in the hundreds of episodes I've produced and I feel that now's the time to bring a few back to 'the surface' if you will. That's why I'm re-posting my conversation with Michelle Visage. She's such a thoughtful, considered interviewee and I took so much away from our conversation. Not least that if you really set your mind to something, if you see exactly where you want to get to, then you're far more likely to get there. And you only need to see how much Michelle has achieved in the years since we spoke to see that what she was saying is true...๐ In this video I'm wearing:Zara Burgundy Jumper, ยฃ34.99.*contains affiliate links.๐ง Contact me:office@emmaguns.com๐ Read me:Subscribe to my Substack: https://emmaguns.substack.com/Follow me:๐ฑ https://www.instagram.com/emmaguns/Why I stopped weighing myself, too many 'unicorns' and Lucy Letby

Have we gone from a few inspirational unicorns to a sea of unicorns, which has made unicorns feel a bit boring? I ponder this and, thanks to a listener request, have some new inspiration.I've been fascinated by the Lucy Letby case and how things have changed from being 'banged to rights' to 'oh, she might be innocent' and I think Redhanded's episodes were incredible and well worth watching/listening to. @RedHandedthepod links below:The original episodeThe 'we were wrong' episode๐ฐ I also share a potentially amazing new product tackling hair loss.
