This week, we hear from two of your favourite guests, Melissa Tattam and Izzy Utterson.

I’m bringing you the ultimate summer reset episode which is packed with the best wellness tips and mindset shifts.

This is a different style of episode and one which we haven't done before but we wanted to go back through some of your favourites to provide you an episode full of takeaways.

Eating more organic and being mindful of what you put into your body
Supplements and collagen favourites
Creating an external environment that helps you thrive
Letting go of the all-or-nothing mindset
Building consistency in a realistic and sustainable way
Small shifts that can make a big impact on your wellbeing

If you’ve been craving a reset, a motivation boost or a healthier mindset going into summer, or maybe you just need reminding on the things that deep down you already know but find it hard to actually implement, this episode is for you.

In my kitchen this week I’m joined by the Co-Founders of Absolute Collagen, Maxine and Darcy Laceby, to talk about the journey of building one of the UK’s leading collagen brands from the ground up.
Founded in 2015, Absolute Collagen was created long before collagen became the wellness buzzword we know today. Back then, we weren’t adding collagen to coffees, smoothies and chocolate bars, Maxine and Darcy were truly ahead of the curve.
In this episode, Maxine shares how her own experience of drinking bone broth and noticing the benefits sparked the idea for the brand, and how the mother-daughter duo went on to create a business focused on helping women feel their best from the inside out.
Maxine is the emotion and purpose behind the brand and Darcy is the science, to which there is plenty of science. Absolute Collagen is expert backed, it has been peer-reviewed and placebo-controlled which in today's environment is an important point to note.
We talk about entrepreneurship, taking risks, building a brand with purpose, and why investing in yourself and your wellbeing matters at every age.
We dive into the different types of collagen and also the different ways you can take it to ensure that whichever collagen you decide to take you know that it will work and be effective.
If you want to make sure you are taking the right collagen, this episode is for you

Topics we discuss:
The beginning of Absolute Collagen at a time when Collagen wasn't a buzz word
The benefits of collagen
How did you get people to listen and understand the benefits
The two types of collagen; bovine and marine
The different ways to take it; topical vs ingestible
Thoughts on gummies as a way to take collagen
What to be aware of when choosing your brand and type of collagen
GLP1 and the new GLP1 sculpt product

We are back this week with another solo episode on how I stay consistent!

If you struggle to keep going and feel like you always pick things up and then drop them and beat yourself up for "failing" this one is for you!

I'm sharing the habits, mindset shifts and little rules that help me stay consistent, from working out and eating well, to showing up for this podcast and building Healthy Habits.

Consistency isn't about being perfectly disciplined everyday, it's about setting yourself up properly, removing as many decisions as possible, choosing things you actually enjoy and knowing exactly why you are doing it.

In this episode I also share a little honest update on Healthy Habits and why I would love your help shaping what comes next.

So grab your pen and paper, get your notes app out and let's right the down the rules for staying consistent

In my kitchen this week, I am joined by Sunna Van Kampen from Tonic Health - the man behind some of our best supermarket decisions.
In this episode, we take a deep dive into how to make smarter choices when we’re walking the aisles. Why is it so easy to pick the “wrong” option? What’s really going on behind food labels and health claims? And should we actually be fibre maxxing, upping our protein, or swapping to oat milk?

We explore how the food we eat is one of the biggest daily decisions we make and yet it’s also one of the easiest to get wrong. From misleading marketing to confusing nutrition advice, Sunna breaks down how the system is designed, and how we can take back control without overcomplicating things.

Sunna is also the author of The Good, The Bad and The Healthy, where he cuts through the noise to help us better understand what we’re really putting into our bodies. In this conversation, he shares practical, no-nonsense advice to help you shop, eat, and think about food in a way that actually supports your health without the overwhelm.

Whether you’re trying to eat better, feel better, or just make more confident choices at the supermarket, this episode is packed with insights you can start using straight away.

Topics we discuss:
How to make the right decision in the supermarket
How to read a products packaging properly
Which dairy should we be eating
Which plant milk is better for us
Is high fat good for us
Protein powders - are they full of fillers or a good addition to our diet
The power of bone broth
Alcohol
The power of your social life to your health
Top brands to keep an eye on in the supermarkets

In my kitchen this week, I’m so excited to have my mum joining me!
I truly couldn’t think of a more special person to celebrate 200 episodes with.

In this milestone episode, we sit down for a deeply personal conversation about her health and wellness journey, including her experience with breast cancer. After losing my grandma to breast cancer a few years ago, hearing that my mum had also been diagnosed was something that completely shook our family.

In this episode, we talk openly about everything that followed, the decisions, the changes, the strength it’s taken, and the perspective it’s given her. It’s an honest and heartfelt conversation about resilience, family, and navigating something no one ever expects to face.

You can expect laughter, tears, and a whole lot of love in this very special episode.

Topics discussed:

Mums diet pre cancer
Mums diet post cancer
Her view on "healthy" and how it has changed
Her care free relationship with food and how that set me and my brother up for the future
The moment mum found out she had Breast Cancer
Her journey and treatment
Her relationship with alcohol
Adding organs into her diet
Buying organic produce
Healthy Household swaps she has made
