Hello, my name is Susie. I started the Inside Out Series because I wanted to encourage lighthearted and relatable conversations around anything and everything taboo! Each episode will feature a guest speaker; we’ll get down to the nitty gritty of what’s going on in their lives and then play a game of life on a desert island…hopefully one day we’ll have a mailbag too! You can find us on Instagram @susieflory or please email susie@susieflory.com for any inquiries. Thank you so much for listening!

NATALIA RUDIN: PRIVATE CHEF TO ONLINE STARDOM
Dec 15, 2025

The Inside Out series is back — and certainly with a bang. This week’s guest is overnight social media sensation and now best-selling author, Natalia Rudin. Yes, Nat had “one lucky video” that went viral, but don’t be dissuaded — behind that video were years of hard work. Nat joins Susie to discuss everything from her natural drive and the food industry to her own personal relationship with food. She truly shows us how hard work, perseverance, and consistency pay off. If you’re looking to build a business or grow your own personal brand, then this episode is for you.

Lydia Graham- Balancing modelling and a passion for comfy yet glamorous knickers!
Feb 18, 2021

This is an episode I really wish I had filmed; when Lydia Graham arrived at my flat looking SO effortlessly cool with a coffee in one hand and croissant in the other I was blown away by her beauty- this girl is absolutely gorgeous, inside and out! Lydia became a model aged 17 after winning a contest and has recently founded her own brand ‘Oh Lydia Intimates’.  

As much as we avoid admitting we live in M&S knickers, I know we all love a pair of granny pants. Well, Lydia has somehow managed to make this concept fashi...

Michelle Griffith-Robinson - Life after the olympics and love at first sight!
Jan 19, 2021

I didn’t actually believe wonder woman was a real-life human until I met today’s guest. In this episode, I’m joined by former Olympic triple jumper, superstar mum, and just generally the world's biggest babe Michelle. She is nothing other than a ball of contagious energy and she joins me in an honest conversation on balancing determination, drive, and simply being human. 

The story of how she met her husband is by far the best thing I’ve ever heard- which proves my theory ‘if you don’t ask you don’t get’.  I know it’ll make you smi...

Georgia Hearn - Drug addiction and going sober
Dec 15, 2020

It has to be said, the majority of my guests have come about as a result of me, rather shamelessly siding into their DM’s. However, when it comes to today’s guest- the roles were completely reversed. Georgia Hearn, aka Clean Geeg, initially contacted me asking for help with setting up her own podcast; I wish my mother had told me. What I didn’t know, was that not only is she an amazing freelance chef - check her out on IG but she also carries a really inspiring story. 

Georgia joins me today to talk about a...

Dec 07, 2020

Before introducing today’s guest, I just wanted to make you aware that this episode contains sensitive content, if your mental health is at risk, please avoid it.

At the age of just 12, Michael was already smoking crack. As a teenager, he went on serve time in the Young Offenders institute on three different occasions first for robbery, then...

Daisy Knatchbull - Balancing female entrepreneurship and everything else!
Dec 03, 2020

Before kindly being put in touch with Daisy Knatchbull I had heard from multiple sources that this girl was seriously impressive- which I can absolutely confirm.  After years of working for a men’s tailoring company and in an aim to break fashion rules, Daisy was the first female to turn up to the  Royal enclosure wearing a top hat and tails- unsurprisingly her Carrie Bradshaw approach meant she was nothing other than applauded in. 

With that, she founded The Deck London, where she crafts very cool tailored suits exclusively for women. But not only is Daisy an am...

After quite literally sliding into Isa’s DMs circa 2016, she has rebranded from her former life as The Goodness Guru to a young professional that is Isabella Robinson nutrition.
