Today's guest is Alex Higham of Exhale Healthy Coffee; a brilliant coffee brand that I excitedly discovered and tried in 2020 and have not looked back since!

As well as the founder of 'Exhale', Alex is a Dad to two girls, husband to Kirsty (co-founder of Exhale) and keen runner.

In this episode we speak about:

• Alex's health journey and the story of how 'Exhale' came about
• where their delicious coffee comes from and how it is made to be so healthy
• the many health benefits of good quality coffee and the decaffeination method used by Exhale
• some of the research on consuming caffeine in pregnancy and as a nursing Mum

For my 30th episode of the podcast, I was inspired (by Zoe Blaskey of 'Motherkind') to share a meditation that I recorded for you.

Having done guided meditations for many, many years during my yoga classes and 1:1 sessions I wanted to treat you, my listeners, to this guided relaxation.

If you're new to meditation, please don't put any pressure on yourself to feel anything in particular.

Whether you get to listen to this during the craziness of half term or another precious stolen window of time, I invite you to…

• listen
• breath deeply
• and relax a little more

PLEASE NOTE: Do not listen while driving as you may get dozy(!). I've been told my voice is "like a balm" and I do try my best to help you relax to the max ;)

Enjoy!

Today's guest on the podcast is Jodie Garth; Mother, Artist and Motherhood Coach. Jodie and I met in late 2021 whilst on a (life-changing) course about Matrescence with Amy Taylor-Kabbaz.

Jodie and I have both learned, grown and evolved so much through — and since — the 'Mama Rising' course, and I wanted to share Jodie's story here.

In this episode we speak about:

• menstrual cycle awareness, what we're not taught about our bodies and passing the wisdom on to our children
• the challenges of ADHD and motherhood combined
• healing in hindsight when you find out more about yourself
• matrescence and ADHD
• Jodie's expression as an artist and finding her voice through collage
