Obesity is one of the biggest public health concerns at the moment, and often the conversation centres around how the individual is personally responsible. 

In this episode I speak with Jenny Rosborough where we explore all of the different factors that play into obesity and weight management. Jenny is a registered nutritionist who specialises in public health. Jenny works with Jamie Oliver as the Head of Nutrition and works in Public Health to change the conversation when it comes to obesity and public health.

We often hear the term “disorder” used in mental health, which can insinuate that our brains are not functioning correctly or that they are “abnormal”. In this video, I offer another perspective on how some mental health issues that would generally be classed as “disordered” may just be part of the human experience.

In this episode, I'm speaking about why psychology is an important factor to consider when changing your diet. The psychology of behaviour change and habits is becoming more recognised as an important factor to consider when making changes, however we still don't see the importance of it, in first wave interventions. 

This episode covers why psychology is an important factor to consider for making dietary changes.

In this episode, I speak to relationship therapist Nicole Banner about building a better relationship with your partner. 

With approximately 200 questions submitted, this podcast was highly anticipated! I hope you get as much from it as I did.

Nicole Banner is a therapist with Spectrum Mental Health who works in Dublin City. She has recently set up her own Instagram page (nbanner.therapy) to talk about these topics, as well as mental health more broadly.

In this episode, I speak with Chartered Counselling Psychologist Nicole Paulie who works as an onsite workplace psychologist and offers private counselling in Dublin.

I have collected questions from my Instagram page (headfirst0) about what people struggle with at work, and we’ve addressed them on this episode!

I found it really interesting talking to Nicole because so many people who have difficulty with their mental health cite work issues as a significant contributor.

Check it out if you have difficulty with workplace stress or if you find it difficult to balance work and life.
