Episode 159: Ro Fielden-Cook

Spinning Plates with Sophie Ellis-Bextor

Ro Fielden-Cook is a woman with a heck of a life story.

She has 3 sons: twins Alfie and Charlie (aged 15) and Freddie (aged 7).

She is the founder of a wellbeing and fitness community ‘The SHE Collective’ which has a holistic approach to giving busy women more life, more confidence and more energy.

She had her twins as a single mother as she left University. One of the twins, Alfie, was diagnosed with a life-limiting condition called SMA when he was still a baby. Her story of fighting for her son’s health and then falling in love is jaw-dropper.

Ro talks about her wonderful rock of a mum, and also about losing her incredible-sounding dad when she was a teenager.

Ro’s positive spirit is inspiring and I guarantee you’ll be using her dad’s motto ‘Onwards and upwards’ when you’ve finished listening.

Spinning Plates is presented by Sophie Ellis-Bextor, produced by Claire Jones and post-production by Richard Jones.
