We are delighted to be able to attend this year’s Wellbeing Symposium on 11th November 2015 at the Kent Event Centre, Deltling, Kent Showground. Miranda joined us in the studio to give us the low down on all the great speakers lined up plus some “hot off the press” news. Don’t forget you can get your discounted ticket if you quote the code Jan mentions during the show. See you there.
We were joined by Dr Sophie Shotter, founder of Illuminate Skin Clinics. It was a delight to hear Dr Sophie’s training in cosmetic medicine is extensive. She told us that this area in the UK is not very regulated and basic requirements to perform injectable treatments are minimal. However, her ethics have spurred her to go above and beyond to ensure she is offering her clients the best treatments available in a safe environment. Another award winner too, Dr Sophie shared a few top tips on skincare for all.
Yes, we were back live in the Channel Radio studio with another wonderful guest, the lovely Dee Stringer of Swelling Matters. She turned up in her bright and cheery car and then explained how she started her own business 15 months ago and has had huge successes with her clients, as well as winning 2 awards at the fantastic Health and Beauty Awards earlier this year. Dee explains what Lipedema and Lymphoedema are and how she can help with a variety of treatments in the privacy of her client’s own homes.
Nutritional Practitioner and Family Wellness Coach Deborah Mulvany of Shaping Wellness joined Jan in the studio today for a chat. You can follow Deborah on Twitter @Shapingwellness, contact her via her Facebook page, or visit her website.
Well, after Angela had her little rant about car drivers, Jan shared some recent research on Sleep depravation and we shared tips on sleeping in this summer heatwave. Angela also explained a little about one of the tools she uses in her coaching and or team development work within organisations, Myers Briggs Type® Indicator (a Personality Preference Indicator). If you would like to know more Angela has provided a copy of the handout she uses on her courses via her website homepage.

The original Who Cares Wins team of presenters were back in action today as Sue Parker joined us in the studio. We also had a phonecall from a great guy listening into our show from New York, USA plus more tweets and mentions. Thanks everyone for listening, tweeting, liking and interacting with our show. Sue Parker updated us on what she’s been working on plus she was modelling her Lion design T-Shirt for the Global White Lion Trust (which you can buy from their website shop).
Today’s show we focussed on our foundations – our feet! As well as it being Sir Edmund Hillary’s birthday and the day “we” landed on the Moon, we were able to chat with J
ay Lall of The Kent Foot and Ankle Clinic about why she chose a career with feet. We quizzed her on the difference between a Chiropodist and a Podiatrist and she shared some great tips for looking after our feet during the summer and in general. We also explored the benefits/pitfalls of certain summer footwear (male and female) and when best to wear what. Finally we had some tips on exercising for our feet. As she says, our feet take us everywhere so we need to look after them just like we do our teeth and eyes.
Barbara Seal who runs both The Wealden Hypnotherapy Practice and Hypnobambinos with her daughter Danielle, explained to us what Hypnobirthing is, how it can help make a real difference to labour and birth.

A jam packed show diary meant that our interview with Julie Dennis a few months ago had to wait until today to be aired. We chatted with Julie about Menopause, the common symptoms and the simple natural solutions she helps her clients look at. She also has a FREE report, ‘Menopause Mania to Menopause Magic‘, that our listeners can take. We also explored what exactly are Hormones and how do they affect our weight, body shape and energy levels. Julie gave us a few tips to consider with recognising the signs of hormone imbalance and what to do about them. There’s even a tip for our male listeners too!
