• Emma Barnett – Will the broadcaster’s biological age reveal be a bad news day for Emma?

  Emma Barnett is 40 years old and at the top of her game. She’s regularly up at 330 in the morning to broadcast to the nation and to hold powerful people to account. But will the early starts and work stress have played havoc with her body? Emma’s used to asking the questions but in this frank, thought-provoking conversation, Emma talks openly about the impact of 6 rounds of IVF followed by early years parenting, her endometriosis, her more recent diagnosis of adenomyosis, and the lifestyle changes she is trying to alleviate her symptoms. She’s not too worried about how she’ll look as she gets older, but she is hoping to feel better as she ages with the long-term goal of retiring in Miami with big hair!From Kate Bush to Nigel Farage, to Nazanin Zahgari Ratcliffe, Emma has interviewed them all and is one of the youngest presenters ever to reach such heady heights of broadcasting. But is she really? Listen in to find out! Dr Nichola is, of course on hand to talk in more depth about endometriosis and how it affects inflammation. Plus how and why shift work impacts our biological age. Emma talks about anti-semitism in this episode which was recorded in August before the attack at the Heaton Park Synagogue in Manchester. Emma also talked about her book Maternity Service and the range of colouring books she has created with her husband - Colour Your Streets https://colouryourstreets.co.uk/?srsltid=AfmBOorUHbG2nR3Dez5OnzaSo8PHwdMgCp_vO9NTtzdWTvktKeQUQZaH Senior Video Producer – Elena CottonVideo Producer– David MaySocial Media - Demi BrockwayArtwork – Ben Watkins Video Editor - Mossie CassidyHead of Video – Edie JefferysSound Designer – Phil AtkinsExecutive Producer – Henrietta HarrisonHead of Production – Cat MoranChief Creative Officer – Lucie Cave
