Latest episode
For our final episode this season, Gemma is honoured to be joined by Dr Rangan Chatterjee: a medical doctor, best-selling author, TV presenter and host of the top-ranking health podcast Feel Better, Live More.
As one of the most influential doctors in the UK, Dr Rangan Chatterjee wants to change how medicine will be practised for years to come, with a mission to help people around the globe live better lives.
If you’ve been tempted by the idea of minimal living but thought it was unachievable, this episode is for you. Madeleine talks about a slow, kindness-based approach to sustainability – a refreshing take on a topic that can at times feel inflexible.
She and Gemma explore how conscious decision-making benefits our wellbeing; letting go of perfection and how this can make way for self-discovery; and how being kind to ourselves, our bodies and the planet are one and the same.
In this deep and spiritual chat, Jonny and Gemma discuss the importance of living in the now, and how it feels to reach your goals, only to have the experience not live up to your expectations.
Jonny talks about how health isn’t a goal you can ever achieve, but a work in progress. He recalls how his passion for gut health started and what it means now, and how it’s part of his overall journey in terms of how his perception and appreciation of his body has changed since being a sportsman. This is a really rich conversation with so much for everybody to take from it, as well as Jonny’s practical tips for wellbeing.
With her debut book ‘Ugly’ out in February 2023, Anita talks to Gemma about how beauty standards have evolved over the ages, and how they impact our lives and define our identity. Their insightful chat covers not fitting in as a child in the 1980s, colourism, colonialism, living with ADHD, and the landmark moment of seeing an Asian person as a main character and love interest in Bridgerton season 2.
She also shares advice on curating your social media feed to change your perspective, using beauty products as self care not concealment, and time management and self care when you have ADHD. This refreshingly positive podcast will inspire you to embrace your authentic self and celebrate your uniqueness.
Kat Farmer, AKA @doesmybumlook40, is loved on social media for her honest but upbeat posts, whether that’s laughing at herself in an unflattering outfit in a high street changing room, or getting raw and emotional sharing the challenges of parenting a teenager with autism.
Now, with her new book Get Changed: Finding The New You Through Fashion already a Sunday Times bestseller, she talks to Gemma about how what we wear is linked with our sense of personal identity and how so many of us lose track of who we are - especially as we get older and find our time and energy taken up with work and family. She shares some practical tips about finding your fashion tribe, talks about her own experiences of menopause and getting older (and why you should wear what you want at any age) and her guilt at not realising her daughter was coeliac.
