Radio Gorgeous

It's Tudormania at the moment with the much awaited Mary Queen Queen of Scots film out now. With impeccable timing the guest today on Radio Gorgeous is author, Kate Hubbard who works at the Royal Literary fund. She has written a book about a powerful, wealthy and creative Tudor woman, who outlived her four husbands. She was a friend of Queen Elizabeth and spent a few years with Mary Queen of Scots as her soft jailer (they sewed together). And most importantly she was an amateur architect who loved building and designing houses and their interiors. She was the richest Tudor woman in  England after the Queen, she is BESS OF HARDWICK.

Devices & Desires, Bess of Hardwick and the building of Elizabethan England by Kate Hubbard, published by Chatto and Windus.

Candida Meyrick gave up sugar over four years ago and rarely drinks alcohol. She found it nigh impossible to find a restorative grown up drink that was not a herbal tea bag. Candida started to grow herbs in her garden and instinctively she has invented something completely original: Positive Potions. Candida's garden is in Anglesey a tiny island off the north wales coast, she came into Radio Gorgeous so we could try her super healthy tinctures.

You will always find interesting women on Radio Gorgeous

This month’s Latte Lounge podcast asks why diets, healthy eating plans and cutting out certain foods always fail? Because it’s not the diet - it’s our head that is interfering with our intentions.

Katie chats about a revolutionary new weight management programme with the founder of Boddymatterz Louise Andres-Vicaria who has created a 12-week plan which supports your body and mind and helps you change your habits forever. Louise gives us some amazing tips for changing our attitude towards our relationships with ourselves and our food. We also hear from one of the first women to pilot test this new programme, Alene, who tells us about how well she’s done on the programme and why it’s so different.

Katie also talks to Josephine about what’s going on in the Latte Lounge in January, from divorce support and advice to inspiring travel blogs plus an interview with the gorgeous Liz Earle MBE who shared her top tips for living well during midlife.

We also hear how The Latte Lounge will be aligning itself with The Eve appeal, a charity which is supporting a research team at UCL who aim to develop one test to predict four cancers (breast, womb, ovarian and cervical).

Grace Kitto, Saving Grace with Donna Freed

A lifetime of habitual overeating added up to obesity for Grace Kitto. Both her mother and her husband's father died of diabetes and it was a real concern. But it was when she realised that there was a subconscious need to eat and she needed to access that to change the behaviour. She doesn't believe in dieting, however, when she was obese she needed to get to a healthy weight before she could get to that point. Along the way, she tried a lot of diets and when they stopped working, she moved on to another. Interspersed with research and actual facts, not fads, about dieting. 

This story won Grace the Mslexia Award for Women's Memoir 2014.
