    Even when you are excelling in your technical, management or clinical skills the ability to influence, speak with candour and collaborate with colleagues, remains imperative for success. A high percentage of work pressure and conflict can come through miscommunication. While we have the best intention, the way we communicate, both with words and body language can sometimes be misunderstood, leading to frustration, conflict, pressure or delays.

    So, how can we communicate with confidence and influence with impact? How can you build gravitas in your daily interactions? And how can you address work conflicts or misunderstandings with ease? These are some of the questions we will be exploring in this episode, alongside Business Psychologist, Jill Williams. Throughout her career, Jill has coached highly influential leaders in how to best communicate and create healthy and supportive teams.

    One of the most remarkable aspects of being a human is our ability to feel compassion for others. That can be for people we know, right through to complete strangers. As with many things in life, it comes with a downside, because the very act of being supportive, compassionate, and caring towards others extracts a cost, both emotionally and physically. There is a limit to how much compassion we can provide for others and if we cross the line there are real and profound consequences for our own wellbeing. We know those working in customer, management or patient facing roles, particularly in the current climate are at significant risk.

    In this podcast with Philippa Spencer, Chartered Psychologist, we will unpack the topic of compassion fatigue, explain what it is, why it occurs and help people recognise their own risk factors. We will share ideas and strategies for how to maintain personal wellbeing so the ability to care for others remains intact and is maintained over time.

In this episode, we focus on the power of sleep.

    Sound sleep, rather than being passive, is arguably the most crucial component in promoting whole-body health.

    In this information age, many of us are very aware of what we ‘should’ be doing to support our health and sleep, but this might not easily translate into action. So we may not reap the benefits. In this podcast, we want to take the solutions for better sleep from theory to practice.

    We will explore the most common reasons for which people struggle with sleep and actions that worked for them. We will help you better understand your sleep behaviour so that you can put in place strategies that work for you.

    In this podcast, you will hear from Yuwa Aghedo, Naturopath, Nutritional Therapist, Herbalist, Lecturer. Yuwa has practices on London's Harley Street and has helped hundreds of individuals with sleep-related challenges such as insomnia.

    Key questionsWhat are some of the most common sleep challenges people are having?What typically causes people to struggle with falling asleep and what can they do if they experience this?What can those who consider themselves night owls and struggle to wake up early do to support their sleep rhythm?Could revenge procrastination be the reason for trouble falling asleep and how can we overcome this?Do you recommend any herbs to support falling asleep?What can we do to address trouble staying asleep?How can the menstrual cycle impact sleep?
    Quick-fire questionsCan we sleep too much? When would it be wise to seek professional help?What is your checklist for good sleep? What part do supplements play in relation to sleep?What are some of the key things to consider if choosing to try supplements?

This episode focuses on women’s health. In this episode we take a deep dive into the role of the female hormones and how hormonal balance may tip off or be restored with nutrition, rest and exercise.

    ‘It’s not me, it’s my hormones.’

    The female sex hormones, those tiny little messengers moving around our bodies, do so much more than just regulating the menstrual cycle. Receptors for oestrogen, for example, are located throughout the body, so the hormones quite literally affect us head to toe.

    They can determine things like our energy levels, emotional state, stress response, as well as gut and endocrine health. And it is a two way street; the way we eat, move, and sleep can also affect our hormonal balance, certain habits tipping it off entirely.

    Bloating, fatigue, blood sugar problems, mood swings. There are about 150 different signs of hormonal imbalance. We tap into the power of getting to know your own self, your own cycle, and going with your flow (pun not intended).

    Joining us today is Charlotte Hunter, a registered and qualified Nutritional Therapist and Functional Medicine Practitioner for 10 years. In her day to day life, she helps men, women and children eat well and be healthy. Her firm belief is that food can be nutritious, delicious, and can support a number of health conditions and issues. Her main focus is helping women navigate the menopause. She knows how food can help balance hormones, making conditions and challenges less impactful and more manageable.

In this episode, we take a look at what actually happens in our bodies when we are stressed.

    When was the last time you skipped lunch because of work worries? Do you ever have back or neck tension? Do you find your breath more shallow when stressed?

    Stress and other emotions have their cheeky way of making their way into our bodies. They can impact our digestive system, our muscles and even the biology and physiology of our brains.

    In this episode we will be exploring how you can tackle stress hands on, and work with your body to release the tension, pressure and worry.

    Today’s guest is Katrina Hession, new mom (aka stress expert), she has had a 15-year career in the TV industry as a Producer managing her fair share of stress, big projects, and long hours. Since re-qualifying as a mindfulness coach and yoga teacher she has delivered wellbeing workshops to a vast range of companies from banks to advertising agencies. She’s FeelGood’s favourite mindfulness coach and enjoys debunking the myth that mindfulness is ‘fluffy’ with practical, science-based content.

In this episode we take a look at what emotional agility is and why it is important in today’s world.

    We all make plans, we have goals and dreams. We create targets and aim forward with full steam. But, even when we have the best intentions and carefully scripted action plans, stress, anxiety, pressure often still make their way in. No amount of planning can stop the unexpected from happening. We don’t know what will come to shake our ground.

    Good or bad, change is imminent, and it is emotional. We can rationalise our way through change and unexpected obstacles, but we often cannot control how our physical and emotional bodies react. This is where emotional agility lies.

    In this episode, joining us is Danni Haig. Danni is an organisational psychologist and coach, working with senior leaders and CEO’s on a constant basis to help them in managing not just their minds, but their emotions when things don’t go to plan. On top of that, she works with different teams in organisations, to help them develop better emotional agility in their day to day interactions, with their colleagues, their personal relationships, and when the unexpected happens.

Whether that be on your lunch break, on your commute or simply when you need to get moving more, this series has something for everyone. In this first episode we talk about the upside of down time. Despite our best intentions to live balanced lives, the modern world demands that we are almost always connected and productive. It feels counterintuitive to take time out when your to-do list is a mile long. Much like sleep but very different to sleep, rest has positive outcomes for our physical, mental, and emotional health. Most rest techniques, which take no longer than 20 minutes, can help you achieve calm in the middle of the storm or revive you when exhausted - while improving productivity. In this episode we discuss what rest actually is, how different it is to sleep and inactivity, and how we can maximise our daily emotional and physical rest. Joining us in our journey through rest and recovery is Dr. Colin Robertson. Colin has been involved in human performance and sports science his entire professional career. Besides working with professional athletes, Colin has been a key player in advancing the research in chronobiology, looking at the impact of sleep and recovery in human performance.

  • The Beat podcast is designed for healthcare professionals only and is brought to you by Nutricia. In this episode of The Beat podcast, our regular host Avril, a Midwife, Childbirth Educator and Hypnobirthing practitioner, talks to fellow midwife, Pip. Pip is currently working as a Delivery Suite Sister and has a wealth of experience supporting parents-to-be through all aspects of pregnancy, birth and the postpartum. Pip has trained and worked in some of the leading maternity units in the UK, and is also the founder of Midwife Pip, a midwifery platform that aims to provide parents-to-be with the latest pregnancy advice, antenatal classes and postpartum support services. During this episode, Avril and Pip focus on the topic of parents’ feeding choices. They discuss their personal observations of working closely with new parents-to-be, talk about how those parents are deciding on whether to breastfeed, formula feed or combination feed, and the challenges in helping parents to make informed decisions about what is right for them.

    Important notification: Breastfeeding is best for babies and provides many benefits. It is important that, in preparation for and during breastfeeding, you eat a varied, balanced diet. Combined breast and bottle feeding in the first weeks of life may reduce the supply of your own breastmilk, and reversing the decision not to breastfeed is difficult. The social and financial implications of using an infant formula should be considered. Improper use of an infant formula or inappropriate foods or feeding methods may present a health hazard. If you use an infant formula, you should follow manufacturer’s instructions for use carefully – failure to follow the instructions may make your baby ill. Always consult your doctor, midwife or health visitor for advice about feeding your baby.
