  • Women on Top - Punam Krishan

    Women on Top - Punam Krishan
    Feb 4 2026
    Recorded live at Collector’s Hall, Glasgow. egg founder and host Kylie Reid is joined by Punam Krishan for a joyful, honest and reassuring conversation about women’s health, hormones and being kinder to ourselves.

    Punam is an NHS GP based in Glasgow, a regular doctor on BBC Morning Live, a mum of two, and widely known as your GP bestie for health and wellbeing. She also appeared on Strictly Come Dancing in 2024, a journey we talk about in this episode, from vision boarding to intentionally putting herself forward.

    At the heart of this live conversation is perimenopause, a topic affecting so many women in the egg community. Punam brings clarity, compassion and calm, helping to normalise what can often feel confusing or overwhelming.

    Together, Kylie and Punam talk openly about symptoms, supplements, coffee and alcohol, what is worth your time and money, and what probably is not. A key thread throughout is Punam’s belief that women deserve to be heard and to feel seen.

    She reframes menopause not as an ending, but as a period of transformation and a powerful new chapter. As you will hear, there is plenty of laughter, and a noticeable shift in the room as women leave feeling lighter, reassured and connected.

    What discussed:
    Perimenopause and common symptoms
    Being kinder to ourselves and opening up conversations
    Supplements, what works and what does not
    Views on coffee, alcohol and lifestyle choices
    Vision boarding and her journey onto Strictly
    Why menopause can be a powerful time of transformation

  • A Conversation with Sarra Hoy – Strength in the Stillness

    A Conversation with Sarra Hoy – Strength in the Stillness
    Jun 4 2025
    Recorded live at the Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh.

    During this powerful live episode of Women on Top, our Egg Head host Kylie Reid sits down with Sarra Hoy for an unforgettable conversation that left the Lyceum in quiet tears and standing ovation.

    Sarra opens up about her incredible journey — from a legal career shaped by a curiosity about crime and Death Row, to standing beside her husband, Sir Chris Hoy, through Olympic triumphs, and now navigating both his terminal diagnosis and her own battle with MS.

    Their love story? Straight out of a movie — love at first sight in Grand Cru, Edinburgh. “I thought he was the most handsome man I’d ever met,” she beams.

    But it’s Sarra’s reflections on togetherness that truly moved the room. “We’re going to move mountains, and we’re going to do it together. It’s the biggest privilege, becoming a team.”

    Through years of long-distance, raising two premature babies, and rebuilding after life-altering health news, Sarra’s message is simple yet profound: Be present. Choose life. Embrace joy. Share your story.

    It’s a conversation full of grace, grit, and the quiet strength of showing up — one day at a time.

    What we talk about:
    • Meeting Chris Hoy and navigating life in and out of the spotlight
    • Supporting her husband’s Olympic career (and cooking superfood curries on the side!)
    • Raising premature babies and her work with Bliss Scotland
    • Facing a personal MS diagnosis with strength and perspective
    • Why she believes in the power of storytelling and choosing presence over perfection
    Recorded at: The Lyceum Theatre, Edinburgh at Women on Top: May 2025

    Mentioned in this episode:
    • Bliss Scotland
    • Samaritans
