Trigger warning - there is an overarching theme of disordered eating in this episode. When the downs leave you feeling up and vice versa.

Today I feel... I don't know, but rubbish. So I'm rambling about it incoherently. Maybe one day someone will understand.

An episode of 2 parts: Firstly experiences of those who work in the NHS and secondly the innovative ways that fitness enthusiasts are altering their training regimes.

This episode evolved out of several others. The three audio contributions I received were placed under different headings. Then I received the anonymous contribution and it seemed to tie things together; hence “Honesty”. I can’t think of anyone who I’ve spoken to since this pandemic started who hasn’t had to change the way they think or operate. We hear from a pub landlord (who’s now become a virtual pub landlord and is supporting the community while considering the impact on his business (If yo...
I'm partial to a little exercise from time to time and follow a few related accounts on social media. I sense anxiety, quite understandably, from those who've found their livelihoods disrupted by the closure of gyms and subsequent lockdown and want to explore the impact on fitness professionals - in the first instance. How did it feel when the closure of gyms was announced? What's the financial and emotional impact? Will this change the way that clients access training and exercise in the future...
How are we dealing with the Coronavirus Lockdown? People share their stories and perspectives on the situation. My intention is that this will become a record of the impact of the lockdown; how it's affected us financially, mentally and socially. This is a departure from the normal Improve, Inspire, Impact podcasts (hence the new, serious, music) but these are unprecedented times. Coronavirus is certainly having an impact on us all so it fulfils one of the criteria. Episode 2 concentrates on edu...

Beth demonstrates incredible resilience dealing with Bi-polar disorder, an eating disorder and ADHD. And yet she describes herself as being "an expert at failing". And that's why I had to put this podcast's title in inverted comma's. Listen and decide for yourself whether her description is justified. (I don't think it is!) During our conversation we talk a little bit about physics, just to set the scene, and hear about Beth's experiences and challenges throughout her education. Beth is very hon...
Khaled is an inspiration. His story demonstrates resilience in the face of adversity and how he has drawn on his experience to improve his own prospects and the lives of others. With a desire to integrate into the community in his new home town, Khaled became a volunteer with many local groups and projects. He has particular empathy with the homeless having endured difficult times when he sought refuge from war-torn Syria. The full story of his journey to England can be read in Human Crossings: ...
Only me! Talking about things I've learnt over the last 12 months. 2019 has been a year of contrast; fantastic memories but also sadness and grief. I'm moving into 2020 wiser, more realistic in my expectations and more honest about my hopes and fears. I feel vulnerable and uncomfortable sharing my struggles with mental health and disordered eating in this episode - but someone may relate or I may stop someone from feeling the way that I have done - and that gives me purpose. What qualifies me fo...
How volunteering can impact and improve your life as well as others. Caroline will inspire you as she talks honestly about the benefits, pitfalls and lessons learnt during many years of voluntary work. We also touch on ageing, authenticity and a 60 before 60 challenge.
A week in the Lake District - no exercise (Dr's orders!) - and loads of food. My idea of hell! So I decided to record my experience, thoughts and feelings. An attempt at self-improvement and a tiny bit of positive momentum to further my eating disorder recovery.
