In this week's episode of Outspoken Mental Health I'm talking about health anxiety and how it can exacerbate more general feelings of panic (plus how to stop it from doing so).

I also chat about a new technique I'm using to keep anxious thoughts and feelings at bay. It's proving to be incredibly simple and effective!!

My fabulous, feisty, funny Mum joins me for a Mother's Day special where we reflect on the past year.

We discuss:

• Tipsy fragrance testing
• Breaking the loo door in a posh Chanel Boutique
• Finding a new passion at 70
• Thai Massage and fabulous podiatrists

And so much more.

I really hope you enjoy our chat and have a great Mother's Day whether with your mum or a woman who means the world to you xx

It's our weekly beauty deep dive with the amazing beauty editor of Women's Health, Perdita Nouril aka Perdi.

This week we're chatting about the wonderful haircare brand Davines. Perdita travelled to their HQ in Italy this week and was blown away by their sustainability credentials, commitment to regenerative farming AND the Michelin star food that they serve their employees.

We also talk about our products of the week (P has an awesome cleanser and mine is a spectacular body scrub) and also have a chat about what's going on with heritage makeup brands at the moment (are they losing their way a bit? Will Gen Z brands last?)

During the episode I talk about the nature of my fear and also a fear of flying in general. I chat about the things I'm doing to try and face it head on, including taking part in the British Airways Fear of Flying Course.

Half way through the episode you'll an interview I did with Captain Steve Allright just before my course flight on Saturday (he's an amazing British Airways pilot and runs the fear of flying course).
