I am thrilled to bring you my latest conversation with Susannah Taylor, artist and wellbeing editor. Susannah first came on the podcast in 2023, and has since gone on to launch her art at solo shows in London, collaborating with brands and inspiring a generation of women looking for creative fulfilment midlife. This is a brilliant conversation about change in our 40s and 50s. Susannah talks about confidence, the emerging field of neuro-aesthetics, finding the confidence to make the leap into a new career or business, and why using our hands and listening to our hearts is imperative in a world so digitally connected that we have found ourselves in the midst of a loneliness epidemic. Finding ways to feel more human is at the heart of Susannah's work. Listen in and feel inspired.

I am so delighted to welcome Marian Boswall as my guest on Life Without Walls. Her work as a landscape architect to some of the most beautiful gardens in the UK has won her many awards. Her love of Eastern philosophy and practices combines with a deep love of the land, nature and the healing it brings. Marian shares how we can do our bit to nurture the land around us, and find healing for ourselves in the process. In this very real and moving conversation, we also talk about the loss of Marian's second daughter and how this compelled her to move out of management consultancy and find a new path. Grief demands that we take time on our journey, and Marian shares her experience in this far reaching conversation.
