Show Notes

Rita Ora joins Claire Sanderson on Just As Well following her Women’s Health cover shoot to talk all things wellness, strength and longevity.

In this honest and energising conversation, Rita shares how turning 30 changed her approach to health, why she now treats her body “like an athlete,” and the routines that keep her feeling strong on stage and off.

From strength training and heated sculpt classes to red light therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, fasting and collagen coffee — Rita opens up about what she’s tried, what works for her, and what she’s ditched along the way.

She also speaks candidly about how her mum’s breast cancer diagnosis shaped her health mindset, managing health anxiety, and why balance — not perfection — is the real goal.

Plus:

Rita’s exact morning routine

Her sleep setup (including the gadget she swears by)

Why she prioritises lifting weights

Cold plunges vs heat therapy

Supplements she rates (and the ones she questions)

Fasting and gut health

Brain health and peptides

Her comfort food confession

And the one piece of advice every woman needs to hear

✨ “Don’t feel guilty if you eat something you love.”
