In this episode I sit down to talk to Sarah Hunt, a hardworking PA to a MD during the day, but also a single mum to two young girls aged 6 and 8. The eldest has special needs, in form of a chromosome disorder. Sarah is originally from Australia, but has been in the UK coming up 18 years, after initially coming over on a 1 year career break! She has worked hard on herself in the last few years to keep a good balance of health and fitness and self care but also going out with friends and enjoying herself and living life to the full!I want to find out how Sarah fits it all in (she has even started a side-line business!), and why she finds it so important to take time out for herself. As the saying goes, you can't pour from an empty cup, and Sarah has truly taken that to heart in order to be the mummy she wants to be for her girls. I hope you will be as inspired as I was after listening to our conversation.

We all keep hearing how bad sugar is for us, but what about artificial sweeteners?

A few years ago, before I had understood the connection between food and health, my mother in law told me she’d got a book from the book people when they’d come to her work. It was a book by someone calling themselves the medicinal chef. She thought I’d like it, she said, because I had started dipping my toes into changing my diet. Little did she or I know what this book would lead to for me. From thinking that being slim was the way forward and that what I had to do was eat less and move more, the book taught me that it is what I eat that matters. And the author of this book was none other than Dale Pinnock, who I have with me on the show today! Dale Pinnock has dedicated the last nearly 30 years of his life to the field of Nutrition and helping people like you and me achieve better health. Nutrition is an incredibly powerful and effective tool in the management and prevention of disease. It represents one of the key things that we can actually do for ourselves to actively play a role in our own healthcare.He is a Sunday Times best selling author of 18 books, clinical practitioner, TV presenter and teacher. He holds a BSc in Human Nutrition, a BSc in Herbal Medicine, and a Post Graduate Degree in Nutritional Medicine. He is also the creator of the culinary medicine college, of which I am one of the students. In this episode we talk about the health issues facing us in today's society and what we can do to improve our own health.You can find Dale Pinnock on www.dalepinnock.com or on Instagram under @themedicinalchef

Sarah Griffith is a health coach, parenting mentor and children's eating specialist. In this conversation we talk about what we as parents can do to help our children enjoy mealtimes more, how she helps the families that come to see her and what results they are seeing in their children's eating habits. I have myself worked with Sarah to help one of my children enjoy food more, and what's so great about Sarah is that she doesn't just sit there and tell you what to do, but rather, she helps you find solutions yourself that work for your family setting. Her help has made mealtimes so much more enjoyable in our household and has helped us find strategies that have allowed us to introduce a wider variety of foods at dinner time. To find Sarah, please head to Instagram and search for @feelbetterfamilies where she has lots of advice, freebies and info on how you can work with her.

Natalie Costa is a woman I have been following on Instagram for a while. Whenever I share any of her posts with my friends, they always comment on her ability to see their child, and it often feels as though she is speaking directly to them. This is why I wanted to have a talk with her on my podcast, especially now that schools are back and some children might find it hard to settle back in, form friendships and manage their feelings. We raise all these issues in this conversation. With over ten years experience in teaching and education, Natalie Costa is all too familiar with the struggles, pressures and demands that both teachers and children face.This is why she created POWER THOUGHTS. Power Thoughts is a teaching, coaching and mindfulness based service which is aimed at empowering children to tap into the ‘power’ of their minds. Through their sessions the children are taught how to become confident, resilient and robust, developing a ‘can-do’ attitude that allows them to flourish both in and out of the classroom setting.Currently, my eldest daughter and I are going through one of her courses in how to manage big feelings. It is truly making us think about how we react to things, and helping us put words on where we feel our feelings when they get overwhelming. During the first video, both my daughter and I sat nodding because it was as though Natalie was speaking about my daughter, as she was so spot on with so much. This made us both feel less alone in our feelings, because other children are clearly feeling similar to us.If you want to find out how Natalie can help you and your child, please head over to her website https://www.powerthoughts.co.uk/ or you can find her on Instagram under @powerthoughtsnc
