Women in Focus

Join our host Helen Berriman for Women in Focus from British Naturism, a podcast dedicated to celebrating and empowering women through naturism. Our podcast is created by women for women, although we warmly invite men to join us and listen as well.

In each episode, we delve into insightful conversations, exploring various aspects of naturism through the lens of womens' experiences. Whether you are a seasoned naturist, new to the way of life or just intrigued, we aim to educate and inspire. We highlight the experiences, challenges, and triumphs of women in naturism. Promoting body acceptance and self love, we explore how women across the planet have shed their clothes and freed up their minds, leading them toward a more fulfilling life in all areas; one that no longer keeps them restricted - emotionally, mentally, physically, and in all other ways.

Helen talks to Martha Vickery
Episode 5
Released: Saturday 6th April 2024
Helen interviews Martha Vickery, a 27 year old dreadmaker from Somerset, UK. Martha joined British Naturism when she was 19 on her way home from a naturist waterpark experience which truely turned her life around. Having fought with her weight and body dysmorphic attitudes throughout her teens, a joke about a naked waterpark visit turned into a reality that she faced head-on, and she has never looked back. She is now a public leading light for younger women in naturism, having taken a central role in the Channel 4 series Naked Education.
