  • Ep. 283 - Breathwork with Jane Randall and Laura Greenham
    Jun 10 2026

    Today, we talk about breathing! Breathwork expert Jane Randall joins us with Laura Greenham who has been helped by Lovefly AND Breathwork with Jane.

    About Jane:

    I spent the early part of my career as an Air Hostess flying with British Caledonian flying both short and long haul to West African, North and South Americas and Europe my first long haul was to Abidjan on the Ivory Coast with Blue Sky holidays…….

    I have continued to travel throughout my life and now regularly fly to Canada and New Zealand to visit my children. After raising my family I indulged in my passion of horses and being a competitor competed in my first International Dressage test four years later. This led to me becoming a Performance Coach for Equestrians and a MSc in Sports Coaching. I soon realised that the challenges I was helping people with in sport were the same that people face in every day life including anxiety around flying.

    Now I coach people in all walks of life wrapping my performance coaching around functional breathing practices, daily practices that can be done anywhere to overcome pressure, anxiety, overthinking and confidence so that they can focus on the the things that matter to them. My approach is supportive, grounded in science giving people the tools to regulate their nervous system.

    Repeating the logo of B’Cal “We never forget you have a choice” If we choose to we can all make changes - just like Laura who conquered her sky!

    About Laura:

    I'm Laura Greenham, a wedding and portrait photographer from Berkshire.

    I have been part of the LoveFly Community since 2012 and have found it absolutely fantastic.

    As someone who suffers from claustrophobia and having experienced intense nervousness around flying, I wanted to share my recent journey with you how I’ve learned to manage my anxiety and build confidence in the air using LoveFly Knowledge and practical breathing techniques and mind set shifts with Jane.

    This has helped me get through the long-awaited build up to the trip, the airport to being on the plane. I'm excited to "look forward" to future trips away!

  • Ep. 281 - Mike Lawson, Author and SkyPeople What Cabin Crew REALLY train for
    May 27 2026

    In this fascinating episode of the Lovefly Fear of Flying Podcast, we welcome back aviation trainer and author Mike Lawson from SkyPeople to uncover what cabin crew training is REALLY like behind the scenes.

    Mike Lawson is an aviation professional and novelist. After working for a number of airlines in various positions from cabin crew to management, Mike now holds the title of Training, Outreach and Project Manager at SkyPeople Training where he manages the training products for both Cabin Crew and Pilots for airlines both in the UK and across the globe. His novel, WINGING IT, reflects on all of his experiences gained at 40,000ft.

    With more than 22 years in aviation, Mike shares incredible stories from airlines across the world, explains how cabin crew are trained to keep passengers safe, and reveals why modern aviation safety standards are more rigorous than ever. From emergency procedures and aviation security to conflict management, wet drills, first aid and crew communication, this episode gives nervous flyers a rare insight into the professionalism behind every commercial flight.

    Mike also discusses: ️ The difference between UK and European cabin crew training ️ Why aviation remains one of the safest forms of travel ️ How cabin crew manage disruptive passengers ️ What’s changed since Covid ️ The reality of working for airlines behind the glamour ️ Wild stories from bankrupt airlines and chaotic operations ️ Why cabin crew need empathy, resilience and calm under pressure ️ How SkyPeople helps future cabin crew launch aviation careers We also chat about Mike’s new aviation romcom Winging It, inspired by his years flying around the world. Whether you’re a nervous flyer, aviation enthusiast, aspiring cabin crew member, or simply curious about what really happens behind the cabin door, this episode is packed with insight, humour and reassurance. Lovefly helps nervous flyers feel calmer, more informed and more confident about flying through expert interviews, real experiences and practical support.

I can't praise these podcasts enough. They enabled me to get on a plane again after 14 years of being too scared to fly. Always interesting speakers and the chance to hear other people's experiences and tips for dealing with this horrible fear. Really supportive group on Facebook too. Thank you Lovefly.
