Podcasts 

In the recent months, I have been lucky enough to be a guest on a number of different podcasts, hosted by a variety of different people, all experts in their own right. 

Podcasts are a great way of picking up new information and insights from experts, as well as a source of entertainment that is free and so easily accessible.

I really enjoy sharing information that has the potential to make a difference to people’s lives and empowering others to take ownership of their nutrition and lifestyle and podcasts are a great way of doing that!
