Alice Thomson is a certified lifestyle medicine practitioner, health coach, and former dentist with a passion for empowering outdoor-loving women to connect, relax, and reclaim their lifestyle. Grounded in science, her coaching approach is simple, actionable, and tailored to help women cultivate confidence, health, and vitality—no matter their circumstances.
Her work focuses on exploring the transformative power of movement in the great outdoors, nutritious food, restorative sleep, and relaxation. A cornerstone of her philosophy is the belief that community and connection are the "bread and butter" of a happy and fulfilling life.
In the past year, she found herself feeling a little lonely and isolated in her new role as a self-employed coach working from home. This inspired her to create "Fresh Fridays," a unique in-person networking event with a wellness twist for outdoor-loving businesswomen. These events combine hiking in the stunning Scottish countryside, enjoying good coffee, and prioritising health—because, as she puts it, "that's smart business!"
This fusion of business, personal development, and health has been an exciting journey for her, and she is continually expanding her offerings in this space.
Outside of her work, she is passionate about team sports, trail running with her dog, wild swimming, singing, and being the best mum to her three children. She lives on a farm in rural Fife, Scotland, with her husband, whom she lovingly describes as "long-suffering yet super lucky."

I have had some incredible guests on this podcast. I have had some brilliant experts, some fantastic case studies of medics and entrepreneurs.
With this episode, though, what I thought I'd try and do is a couple of solo episodes just sharing some of my experience, some of my thought processes, some of the stuff that I do behind the scenes within my program and within my work, one to one with doctors.
I just want to be able to support anybody that's out there that's not sure what next step to take. Um, if you're not ready to reach out and maybe work in a group or maybe work one to one, you might just get the one or two snippets of advice from these sessions that will help you be able to move forward with your idea. Anything is possible.
But I am not here to tell you that it's easy. I'm here to give you real life insights, real life thoughts and practical solutions and suggestions and to how you go about doing this, how you go about venturing into this new world of entrepreneurship that is so very, very different to the world of medicine that we are used to.
I hope you enjoy.

Charlotte Ellis Maldari has spent nearly 20 years helping leading creative businesses find their ideal clients and build lasting authority. Charlotte believes you should establish yourself as the authority in your field, and then automate your outreach—so clients come to you, ready to invest.
Charlotte and I met nearly a year ago through a group programme with Gemma Gilbert and I was fascinated about what she was offering.
Charlotte has sales and marketing in her bones and in this episode we have a rich and informative conversation that will help anyone who is ready to go in their business and ready to reach a wider audience.
Her reflections and analogies such as ‘teach a man to fish’ and the importance of not labeling ourselves as one thing or another really resonated with me.
We discuss marketing, sales, brand and building a business that works for you as a busy parent and Mum.

Richard is an entrepreneur who is now supporting doctors on their entrepreneurial journey. In this episode we share our experiences of working with doctor and the struggles we have specifically around starting and scaling our businesses. We discuss vision, mission and values, establishing our authority and getting used to selling.
There are so many transferable skills between medicine and business that we also discuss.
A bit about Richard.
After experiencing burnout, a little over a year ago, Richard rediscovered himself through reflection, journaling, and stillness.
This transformative journey, coupled with over 10 years of experience as an entrepreneur and helping his husband build his own business, kick-started his path to assisting other doctors in building their own businesses and personal brands.
As the founder of the Doctorpreneur Network, Richard supports medical doctors on their entrepreneurial journey—whether they’re exploring possibilities, navigating unfamiliar terrain, or scaling their ventures.
With a proven, systems-driven approach, he empowers doctors to find clarity, build confidence, and create self-sustaining businesses that unlock their full potential.

Aileen Alexander is a medic who has done what so many medics hope to do. She’s now running an incredibly successful online lifestyle medicine business with clients across the globe.
In this episode we talk about how she started off on this path as a bit of an accident but has had the same struggles and hurdles as us all along the way.
Pricing, imposter syndrome, failed launches…
Her story will inspire you to keep moving forward one step at a time.
Dr Aileen Alexander is a former NHS GP who left in 2019 to pursue a career in Lifestyle Medicine specialising in sustainable weight loss and food freedom for women. She began her entrepreneurial journey in 2016, and navigated crippling imposter syndrome before hiring mentors to scale her business and replace her GP income and ultimately making the leap to leave the NHS!
Since then, Aileen has worked with hundreds of patients across the UK and internationally, guiding them toward long term health improvements. Supported by a close knit team of four, she balances her career with family life as a stepmom of two and is currently expecting her own child! Aileen is a firm believer in work-life balance and ease over hustle. She has demonstrated that with the right systems, processes and mindset you can run a successful and growing business while working less than 35 hours a week!
Aileen's expertise has reached a wide audience through a TEDx talk in 2022, an article she was invited to write for Hello!, and features in publications like Stylist, Prima, and Fabulous. She’s grateful for the chance to share her passion for lifestyle medicine and connect with people who are looking for a sustainable approach to health.
