My wonderful guest this week is Ali McDowall, one of the two directors and creators of The Positive Planner, a daily journal that helps you track how you’re feeling and work through what’s on your mind. Mum of two, and PND discusser, Ali is beautiful, warm, passionate and a real joy to chat to (we are already planning a drink when she's next in London!)
