  • Dangerously poor advice

    Really terrible podcast that exploits women at one of their most vulnerable phases in life. Terribly inaccurate and harmful content.

  • Life changing advice for midlifers

    James and Claire are my trusted source, go to support and comforting peers through this midlife rollercoaster. When your emotions are all over the place and you are bombarded with information, it’s been a life saver to have you guys there who I trust not only are up to date qualified but also experienced in all of this stuff for me to know what to do. Thank you sooo much and keep up the good work!

  • Jam packed with relatable, empowering info

    I’ve recently started listening to James & Claire and really enjoy their approach. Each podcast is jam packed with takeaway tips - either from their own experience, from evidence based research, or a combination of the two. They cover so many important topics, always in a really relatable chatty style. Highly recommend for anyone on a health journey wanting to dig deeper into what derails us, why, and how to stay on track.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Raising Teens: From Conflict To Connection - Interview with Dr Suzanne Simpson
Q: Why do you think so many teenagers struggle at adolescence?
The guest explains that teens are wired for negativity and undergo brain changes until their mid-20s, making them more impulsive and emotional; social media and digital environments have amplified these challenges, contributing to anxiety and other mental health concerns.
The GLP-1 Revolution: Upacking The Real Story, With Dr Max Pemberton & Dr Courtney Raspin
Q: What should someone consider before starting GLP-1 therapy?
Assess readiness for lifestyle changes, understand that medication is a tool, not a cure, and plan for long-term strategies including hunger awareness, sleep, alcohol moderation, and exercise to protect muscle and bone health.
The GLP-1 Revolution: Upacking The Real Story, With Dr Max Pemberton & Dr Courtney Raspin
Q: What led you to write this book about GLP-1s and weight management?
We observed how GLP-1s can dramatically suppress appetite, but also saw patients lose sight of the psychological work needed to sustain changes once the medication is stopped. The book aims to combine medical guidance with psychotherapeutic tools to help people change their relationship with food.
Men's Mental Fitness: An Interview With Neil Smith
Q: What can women do to support men in their mental health journeys?
Women can be conduits to help men connect with resources and community, often acting as a bridge between men and mental health supports.
