We’ll pick a winner and announce it on our stories next week 🤍 What if the real problem isn't what you're eating, but what's eating you? In today’s episode, we’re joined by nutritionist and former model Sarah Ann Macklin, who retrained in nutritional science after experiencing serious health challenges during her modelling career, and now also hosts the Live Well Be Well podcast. We explore why emotional eating has nothing to do with willpower, the ‘add not subtract’ mindset that reshapes your relationship with food, and how the wellness industry intentionally keeps nutrition confusing to keep you coming back. You’ll learn: 🧠 1 skill that matters more than any diet😫 Why emotional eating isn't a willpower problem (and what actually helps instead)📍 The 3 step NNN technique for emotional eating🌙 What to eat before bed to calm your mind📲 Why most nutrition advice online is confusing (and often wrong) Resources & links mentioned: ‘Healthy Shouldn’t Be This Hard’ book - https://linktr.ee/HealthySBTH?utm_source=ig&utm_medium=social&utm_content=link_in_bio&fbclid=PAZXh0bgNhZW0CMTEAc3J0YwZhcHBfaWQPOTM2NjE5NzQzMzkyNDU5AAGndN4t5FannHgouqEov2ydOImDMeK0d5pWyGT37cG2QFWoRfYETje4nv2Gzak_aem_uXAo6Olt18Pg1clcHb-1Hg Live Well, Be Well Podcast - https://open.spotify.com/show/5JhQAqzTWR3ENNV5afJXFV Sarah’s Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sarahannmacklin/ Support for anyone affected by eating disorders:-firststepsed.co.uk-beateatingdisorders.org.uk or 0808 801 0677 (England), 0808 801 0433 (Wales) Professional body for talking therapy and counselling - bacp.co.uk Links to subscribe / follow: Apple Podcasts: ⁠https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/her-discussions-by-dr-faye/id1835829612⁠ Spotify: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/5viLYizHD4Zy6J42iqtPRo⁠ Can I ask you a BIG favour? 💙 Please leave a review or rating.

What if the reason you’re struggling isn’t you, but the systems around you? This week, I sat down with Jenny Okolo, a mental health occupational therapist and TEDx speaker, who has worked across forensic mental health and the prison system, to talk about ADHD, autism and what happens when neurodivergent people are expected to fit into environments that weren’t designed with them in mind. We also talk about: ⚡ The 70% rule that can make life with ADHD easier 🏫 How schools, healthcare & prisons can fail neurodivergent people 💼 What your workplace can actually do to support ADHD 📱 When self diagnosis helps VS when it can become harmful 👀 Why someone’s worst behaviour doesn’t tell you their whole story Resources & links mentioned: -Jenny’s TEDx Talk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MMg_s4mGjVY -Jenny’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jenokolo/?hl=en -Faye’s ADHD book recommendation: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/0971460973?ref_=ppx_hzsearch_conn_dt_b_fed_asin_title_1
