A new season sees a change in direction for the Rude Health podcast, now aimed at helping women over 40 feel empowered to navigate the clusterfuck that is midlife!

I really want to help this population, including myself navigate this stage of our lives.

I've had quite a lot of significant changes go on in my life in the past 18 months that have made me realise that these are the people that I want to help.

I want to help you to feel better physically, mentally, and emotionally, regardless of what the fuck your hormones are up to.

I want to show people that there's still so much you can do to positively impact your health, whether you are pre peri or post menopausal.

In this episode I'm give you a bit of a background about why I chose to do that.

If you enjoyed this episode I would love it if you'd leave 5 star review!

Have you ever heard the phrase, 'Good Food, Good Mood' - turns out there's some actual science behind it 😉

Tune in to this week's solo episode, as I chat about gut health, why your food affects your mood, why superfoods aren't a thing, and how to avoid Alzheimer's.

In this solo episode I cover a range of topics relating to HOW we eat, and the morality we place on food, and emotional eating.

Do you think you're a bad person for what you stick in your gob?

Are there certain foods you just can't trust yourself to be around?

Do you label foods as 'naughty' or think healthy foods are 'boring?

Then you might wanna wrap your ears around this episode, as I give some tips for dealing with this, as well as how to maintain your new version of healthy once you achieve it.

Getting to a healthy weight is just the beginning!

This is a CRACKER of an episode!

Join me as I chat to Dr Ed Pooley, GP.....

Ed works as an NHS GP with an interest in the interface between psychology and health. Prior to medical school he was a researcher in molecular biology, neuropathology and behavioural genetics.

When not working in primary care, Ed works as a communications consultant training doctors and healthcare teams to communicate more effectively with each other and with their patients (if you work in the medical profession you can buy Ed's book here) - and all that experience certainly made for an interesting conversation!

We talk about the complexities of fat loss, body image and the influence of social media, bariatric surgery and the options for overweight people on the NHS, and even Slimming F*cking World gets a mention!

If you believe that the answer to obesity is 'eat less, move more' then you might wanna open your ears (and your mind), to listen to this.

Enjoy the show!

Join me in this solo episode as I chat about where the greatest effort and adaptation needs to happen in order for you to be successful with your health goals.

Mindset matters, and as you shift to a new version of yourself, there will be battles to be had with the old version.

Learn to like being uncomfortable, embrace the process, and realise that as long as you are doing A version of 'healthy' on any given day, you're still winning.

This is an EPIC episode where I chat to my favourite Canadian, Kristen Ingraham Morgan.

Passionate coach, owner of LN CrossFit in Lincoln, previous Food Ninja client, founder of the Strong Girls Squad and wearer of many fitness-related hats.

We cover her journey to better balance, and therefore better health, the dangers of 'popular' nutrition programmes in the fitness industry, and why ethical coaching, with the person's whole health as the main consideration, should be the ONLY choice.

We also find out how a conversation with one of her members made Kristen go full Liam Neesom and set up the Strong Girl Squad, to help the next generation of girls to define and create their own version of healthy.

You can find out more about the Strong Girl Squad here, and you can follow LN CrossFit here.
