The following article of the Health industry is: “The Future of Mexican Healthcare Under President Sheinbaum” by Guillaume Corpart, Founder & CEO, Global Health Intelligence.

This episode explores the concept of health intelligence, unpacking its complexities and showing how it differs from health analytics. Health intelligence, unlike mere analytics, isn't just about gathering data but is about turning that data into actionable insights that drive change. A memorable comparison likens health intelligence to a detective piecing together clues: “It's not just about crunching numbers; it's about uncovering the story behind them to improve lives.” For employer benefits leaders and advisors, understanding health intelligence means moving from reactive healthcare strategies to proactive, data-driven interventions tailored to specific workplace needs.Key takeaways include:Defining Health Intelligence: It's more than data collection—it's the skill of applying knowledge to improve health outcomes.Analytics vs. Intelligence: Analytics provides data; intelligence interprets it to inform meaningful strategies.Real-time Data & Forecasting: Essential features for platforms include real-time insights and forecasting to predict and prevent issues before they arise.Tailored Interventions: Using data to create targeted health programs, like wellness initiatives or gym partnerships, that cater to unique workforce needs.Empowering Proactive Health Management: Health intelligence supports not only addressing existing health issues but also anticipating and mitigating future ones.Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

In this episode of the Data Malarkey podcast, data storyteller Sam Knowles talks to Tim Jobson, a consultant gastroenterologist at the Somerset NHS Foundation Trust in South West England. Tim truly is a product of Oxbridge, having studied Natural Sciences at Cambridge for three years and then Medicine at Oxford for a further three. He went on to take a PhD in Medicine from Nottingham University, and he is a Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians.   Tim is an expert in what's sometimes rather unglamorously known as “internal medicine”, and one of his specialist organs is the liver. Since 2021, he's been the Medical Director and Chief Investigator of a pioneering, data-driven business called Predictive Health Intelligence which is taking a fresh approach to analysing historical blood test data and identifying patients at risk of liver disease.   As he considers the role that data plays in diagnosis of different chronic and acute medical conditions and diseases, Tim zooms in from the stories patients tell their doctors to the results of specific tests and biopsies. By accumulating relevant evidence, healthcare professionals can identify the relative risk or probability that a particular patient is suffering from a particular disease.   We focus on metabolic syndrome – the cluster of conditions that result from the excess of modern life: cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, obesity, and hypertension. When we take in more fruit sugar – fructose – than we need, our liver store this as fat. This was fine as recently as 10,000 years ago, before agricultural, industrial, and consumer revolutions, when our ancestors lived a life of feast and famine. But when fatty, salty, sugary foods – particularly those laden with High Fructose Corn Syrup (HFCS) – are so readily available, piled high and sold cheap in supermarkets, this sets us up for metabolic syndrome. Something that at least a third of the Western world suffers from today.   One major and silent killer in this cluster of conditions is non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. As the clinical lead in a partnership with his local National Health Service Trust and healthcare IT experts, Tim and his colleagues at Predictive Health Intelligence have developed and are rolling-out a case-finding search engine (HepatoSIGHT) which uses the results from historical blood tests taken over a patient's life to predict whether – without them knowing it – they are suffering from this silent killer.   The annual toll of this disease is eye-watering: it costs £7-13bn a year, causes 30,000 premature deaths, and robs the UK population of more than 100,000 years of healthy life each year. We discuss how HepatoSIGHT could dramatically reduce these numbers and how the same, super-smart approach to using existing health data could help identify other, costly, silent killers, too.   EXTERNAL LINKS Predictive Health Intelligence – https://predictivehealthintelligence.co.uk Tim Jobson's LinkedIn profile – https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-jobson-0043934b/ PHI on Twitter – https://twitter.com/phi_comms   To find out what kind of data storyteller you are, complete our data storytelling scorecard at https://data-storytelling.scoreapp.com.

 Dr. Phil Wagner, Founder and CEO of Sparta Science, is developing a movement health intelligence solution to better understand the overall health of a patient and their risk of injury.  They are interweaving movement ability and balance ability to analyze meaningful biomarkers to ensure top performance and safe mobility. From his experience as a sports trainer, Phil warns about making assumptions about performance at any age. Phil explains, "We do a balance assessment to assess that movement health, and it takes about 20 seconds on each side, and that will actually generate about a million data points on our device. This feeds into software that uses machine learning to compare you against yourself but also around others in a similar cohort, whether that's similar ages or sex at birth. So, being able to compare yourself against your own previous baselines and assessments, but also compare yourself for norms against others." "We're working with the military on a TBI biomarker, traumatic brain injury because movement is interwoven into all those different types of conditions. So, the biomarkers that are created are really based on those conditions you're trying to improve, maybe performance for an athlete, or it may be avoiding some sort of setback, like a fall. The biomarkers that are of interest really depend on the population. Still, because balance is such a global application, it really has the opportunity to create biomarkers in several different areas, depending on the population."  "On the other side, we've seen hospitals assign fall risk to individuals just based on their age. I spoke with a hospital CEO the other day who found that anybody over 65 gets yellow booties. They're automatically a fall risk when they are checked into the hospital. He encountered a woman walking around in these yellow booties at his hospital, and he told her to get back in her room because she was a fall risk. She ran back to her room. So, this is the idea that we're using age as a primary marker and assuming that we have these movement limitations that may or may not exist." #SpartaScience #MovementHealth #MovementHealthIntelligence #BigData #DigitalHealthTech #DigitalHealth #HealthTech #MachineLearning SpartaScience.com Download the transcript here

If you look at almost any engagement survey that a company does, career development is almost always one of the lowest scores. Robyn Clark, the founder of WinningWise, an HR and talent management company, says that's largely because employers career development because they think it's only for the person – the employee – and not for them. That's completely and utterly wrong.Robyn explains that if employers are preparing a workforce for the future, they should be looking to develop people so they can take on ever-bigger projects and go into broader roles, some of which may not even be known yet. Robyn further says career development is probably the most important talent strategy today, one that offers a huge win for both the organization and the individual because the employer is building the bench that they want and they're meeting two significant needs for the employee: mastery and personal growth.Catch the full conversation.Connect with Robyn Clark on LinkedInWatch WinningWise's webinar “Understanding Individual Needs: How Employee Needs Have Shifted Since the Pandemic”Get the complete 2023 Employee Health Trends report and other related resourcesConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast players. Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

Surfing NASH is joined by Tim Jobson, Co-founder of Predictive Health Intelligence, to discuss a system by which historic blood test results are combined and analyzed to flag patients in need of intervention. This conversation starts with a dialog between Tim and Roger Green around how simple the data and computations in this system appear to be. Roger describes a benefit in terms of patient throughput and asks whether Predictive Health has investigated along these lines. Tim agrees with the assumption but indicates that this work has yet to be accomplished. Finally, he underscores that this tool can help locate and recruit patients for research studies. Jörn Schattenberg agrees with the idea before asking whether the system processes natural language, or in his anecdote, scraps of paper from years ago found in the patient file. Tim suggests this to be easy enough to execute within the system and will become more powerful as use of the system expands.From here, the conversation shifts to patient reactions. Tim notes that, in general, reactions have trended universally positive. Specifically, patients do not seem concerned that the health system has their identified data, something vastly different from what administrators believe and say. As the conversation winds down, Roger asks Jörn how he feels this work will align with the clinical care pathways initiative he is spearheading with Jeff Lazarus. Jörn confirms it will align well, indeed.

Surfing NASH is joined by Tim Jobson, founder of Predictive Health Intelligence, to discuss applying analytics to sieve through and distill invaluable data otherwise dormant in the NHS record systems. Tim, a Consultant Gastroenterologist and Fellow of the Royal College of Physicians, has firsthand experience with the shortcomings and frustrations around undiagnosed liver disease. Illustrating the pursuit of a solution, he walks us through the journey of developing a simple tool that can identify patients at risk of liver disease by analyzing the results of blood tests given throughout their lives. Also featuring in this session are Surfers Jörn Schattenberg, Louise Campbell and Roger Green, who pose compelling questions and share insightful perspectives on this particularly pertinent subject to the podcast.Tim begins by providing his background and how he came to partner with expert clinicians and specialists in healthcare IT to address how we can better identify patients. A pivotal validation came in the form of funding from the National Institute for Health Research to establish Predictive Health Intelligence and create a software and system that works quickly and straightforwardly. He notes that this project is a “combined informatics and clinical program simultaneously,” where the building of new clinical pathways is a key part of their process and aims.  An important idea emerges: instead of waiting for inbound referrals, Tim is focused on how to proactively engage in outreach to those who likely may not come to attention until presenting with decompensated cirrhosis. At this point, the challenge around collecting patient data is acknowledged but explored in more detail later in the conversation. Once approved, the task targets organizing, curating and systematizing this data in a way that enables end users to search for, identify and investigate patterns of blood tests. This approach offers tremendous value in its ability to analyze cumulative results as opposed to deriving insights from a single point in time. By demonstrating area under the curve and introducing trend lines in an easily deployed case-finding search engine, frontline treaters are better equipped to pick up patients. From here, the other panelists inject a series of thought-provoking questions, starting with Jörn's focus on the patient response to this new pathway. Thus far, Tim is pleased to have received positive feedback and expects to conduct a comparative analysis as outreach expands. Jörn next prompts a thorough look into the computational components of this project. Tim explains a key to the system lies in “prepping the data” so that queries can generate cohorts of interest in mere seconds. This is an evolving effort that he works on closely with developers to craft bespoke technological solutions.  Louise asks about what barriers, financial or otherwise, stand in the way of outreach efforts. Tim states that specifically financial barriers are being combatted with economic analysis to demonstrate the massive potential savings NHS can experience by adopting these preventative measures. Discussion segues back to computational power and the integration of assessing for the wider metabolic spectrum. Roger suggests that such a technology can offer an effective optical validity test before he shifts thoughts toward integration with other pathways. As the session continues, Tim fields numerous prompts which delve into patient engagement, elements of data privacy, physician responses, the future of this project and much more. This is yet another eye-catching profile of an innovative technology in the Fatty Liver space contending to solve an immensely relevant challenge.

Turns out, there may be more density in your gut microbiome, but there's more diversity in your oral microbiome.Naveen's company, Viome, built an AI-driven platform that analyzes the interaction between food, your body's biomes, and your cells from at-home tests. Your results are used to develop precise ways of eating and taking supplements that prevent and can even help reverse chronic disease. They've so far collected 425,000 samples showing 600 trillion data points.The newest Viome test kit takes a look at your oral health. Viome prepares custom supplements, probiotics and prebiotics with the exact ingredients in the exact dosages you need based on your personal test results. This customization is important because supplements are not universally healthy, more isn't better, and consuming nutrients and biotics you don't need can actually do more harm than good. Custom formulations work with and for your own physiology.Viome testing also helps you see your personal health trends over time. Your tests could show different results at six months or a year. Then, your supplements would be adjusted to your changing physiology.

A few weeks ago, I was on Nicci's podcast talking about health, life, nutrition and biohacking. It was a broad but beneficial conversation for anybody who is taking their first steps towards taking responsibility for their health.Nicci Robertson is a clinical nutritionist and the owner at Re-Invent Health and Integrative Health Sciences. She believes everyone is unique and has different gene expression, health issues, stress levels, activity levels, life circumstances, and goals. That's why people find dietary advice to be confusing and contradictory. And while there's no such thing as one optimal human diet, Nicci believes in  basic rules and systems to follow in order to thrive. Join us as we explore:What it means to thrive and not just survive?Why I believe I am seeing so much chronic fatigue, apathy and a lack of inspiration, and why my mission is to change TGIF to TGIM.The collaborative practice model, the critical role of health coaches and why the collaborative model is the future.Why if your doctor does not ask about your sleep, stress, nutrition and exercise, please, find another doctor.How to see through the myths perpetuated by Big Pharma, Big Food, Big Agriculture and any Big Business.The dangers of toxic living. From our water, to the products we apply to our skin, including sunscreen!Preventative medicine and the role of biohacking in the future of medicine.Support the showSUPPORT THE SHOW ON PATREON:As much as we love doing it, there are costs involved and any contribution will allow us to keep going and keep finding the best guests in the world to share their health expertise with you.

The following article of the health industry is: “Nanomedicine Opens the Door to Tomorrow's Health” by Guillaume Copart, Founder and CEO of Global Health Intelligence

In this episode I chat with Dr Steven Stavrou or better known as Steve Stavs about taking responsibility for your health. As well as the art and science of bio hacking and the most simple and indeed free steps you can take to improve your health starting today. https://madetothrive.co.za

“What we've seen in the last 10 to 15 years … is a juggernaut of costs from specialty medicines, usually wonderful medicines with great cures, but that come at a significant cost. … And whereas the split between medical and pharma used to be that we spent some of our time on utilization of pharmacy and prescriptions and generics and mail order versus retail, now specialty medicine is just blowing everything out of the water from a cost perspective.” With that, healthcare industry thought leader Dr. Ron Leopold launched into an engaging conversation about macro trends in employee benefits, covering the ever-evolving effects of COVID, the proliferation of point solutions, the major cost drivers for employers, and how those employers should be using data to contain their costs.“There's a whole lot that we can measure if we're smart and understand this requires both looking at the data and then really thinking through cause and effect,” said Dr. Leopold.Listen to the full conversation.Connect with Dr. Leopold on LinkedInVisit RonLeopold.comConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast playersHave feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

Rod Reasen, II, is the Co-Founder and CEO of Springbuk, a Health Intelligence platform with a vision to prevent disease with data. Prior to launching Springbuk, Rod founded and scaled a fee-based benefits consulting firm into one of the largest in the Midwest when it was acquired by a publicly traded firm in 2010. In 2009, he launched the nationally recognized Healthiest Employers award program that has recognized over 8,000 employers at the top healthiest workplaces in their region and who represent nearly half of the working population in America. From those learnings, Rod dreamed of a day where employers could make the best unencumbered decisions using data. That passion drove him to co-found Springbuk, which now represents more than 4,000 employers including hundreds of household brands. His energy is contagious and the world is benefiting from his vision to disrupt healthcare.

The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 (CAA) was signed into law, including many provisions that impact employer-sponsored health plans. The CAA mandates a new set of requirements for pharmacy reporting, mental health parity compliance, consumer price transparency, balance-billing practices, and other requirements related to contracts between employers, their health plans, and broker/consultant partners.It's complex. Shannon Kukulka, an employee benefits attorney at Waller and former  in-house counsel for a Fortune 500 company, joined Nicole Belles, vice president of product at Springbuk, and regular host Jennifer Jones to share her legal knowledge and practical advice on how employers can navigate the murky waters of the CAA.Connect with Shannon on LinkedInVisit Waller's websiteRead Shannon's blog about the CAAConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Nicole Belles Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast playersHave feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

Kayla and I had a fabulous time connecting for her One on One skin and rejuvenation session today which was a lovely Mother's Day gift from her husband. As a fellow nurse, we had a good laugh about "not knowing what you don't know" and the dangers of purchasing supplements and skin care from social media ads which potentially can expose you to many toxins that aren't listed on the ingredients list that I have seen happen a number of times with "trendy" hair, skin and nail supplements. During our session I reviewed the products she purchased and found a few red flags that I will share with you in today's episode to help you become a smarter consumer to save your money and hopefully support more conscious consumerism. It's not about buying things to try and solve your aging concerns, it's about using products that are third party researched to be safe, and supporting companies that are also doing good things in the world. I discuss a concept of sending and receiving that in a world full of anonymous consumerism most people are unaware of the energetic exchange, and potential dangers, that take place when you buy something from someone on the internet.I might actually perform an experiment on this very topic so stay tuned and stay sharp!Biohacks mentioned in today's episode!Viome Health Intelligence Test Kit.

Silicon Valley has long been the global hub for the technology that drives the modern world. Wearable devices that monitor calories, exercise, sleep and more are among the many products to emerge and instantly become part of our daily life in a way no one has predicted, but we doubt things are stopping there. Silicon Valley is ever-expanding and while still being top dog for startups, other areas around the world are proving they can play the game just as well. So, what's next for Silicon Valley? Big companies like Google and Apple are getting better at reading data and predicting details regarding your health and are squarely rooted to become the next big players in healthcare. Jack Russo and Joe Cucchiara discuss if Silicon Valley is about to reinvent itself as the center for e-health intelligence.

Health insurance was established to protect us from catastrophic financial loss, but David Contorno, CEO and founder of E-Powered Benefits, says, “medical debt is the number one cause of bankruptcy in the U.S., with the huge majority of them having had health insurance?”David explains how the typical broker and carrier contracts are structured so that they benefit most when costs go up. His firm turns the usual system of incentives around so they're paid on how much they lower costs. Learn about his firm's approach to building benefit plans that are built specifically for a company's culture and workforce … and discover why insurance carriers don't like him much.Connect with David on LinkedInDavid's viral post about Health Expenditure vs. Life ExpectancyGet the e-book Social Determinants of Health: A Springbuk PerspectiveMarshall Allen's book, Never Pay the First Bill: And Other Ways to Fight the Health Care System and WinGet the complete 2022 Employee Health Trends reportConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast players.   Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

In this second episode of a mini-series based on the 2022 Employee Health Trends report, we talk with co-author Janet Young, M.D., Lead Clinical Scientist at Springbuk, about the impacts COVID-19 has had on employee healthcare and employer benefit plans. Armed with data from more than 30,000 COVID patients, Janet and her fellow data analysts split the research into individuals who had COVID into hospitalized and non-hospitalized to get a better understanding of what was happening within each group.Their findings were stunning: during a six-month period after an initial COVID diagnosis, hospitalized patients cost about 70% more than the researchers expected. Even non-hospitalized patients saw an increase of about 25%.What's this mean for employee benefit plans? As the pandemic seems to be drawing to an end, employers need to be mindful that doesn't mean their healthcare costs will immediately drop. And besides the costs for acute care, the data show many people, unsurprisingly, have post-acute care mental health issues that may linger for an extended time. Listen as Janet provides recommendations for both employers and their employees. Connect with Janet on LinkedInGet the complete 2022 Employee Health Trends reportConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast players.   Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

In the 2021 Employee Health Trends report, Springbuk discovered the rate of telemedicine services per 1000 plan members had increased 12-fold over the previous year's data, which was mostly prior to the COVID-19 pandemic. Digging deeper into the data, Chris Gagen and the rest of the Springbuk analytics team found mental health accounted for more than 40 percent of those encounters.What has happened in the year since then? Have telemedicine visits overall increased, decreased, or remained relatively constant?What about telemental health services? Has the long two-year grind of the pandemic caused more people to seek care via the internet?Who is using the services most?What's causing the variance in telemedicine visits among demographic groups?Those are some of the topics that Chris, Springbuk's Senior Director of Analytic & Strategic Consulting, explains in this episode.Connect with Chris on LinkedInGet the complete 2022 Employee Health Trends reportConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Subscribe so you don't miss an episode: Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other popular podcast players.   Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

You might know Spencer Smith hosts a popular podcast around self-funded insurance. Or you may have seen his video series on stop-loss insurance, which has become standard curriculum for many people just starting in the industry. But did you know Spencer loves heavy metal, which many people find shocking? Or that he once dabbled in stand-up comedy, where he occasionally bombed on stage, “which is just brutal to your soul.” Listen to him describe how he used that feeling of “being vulnerable on stage in front of 200 people and totally sucking” to build his confidence. In this wide-ranging conversation, Spencer encourages those who are struggling with self-confidence to “learn how to be comfortable being uncomfortable.” And he explains how one question — Are you a runner or a chaser? — can help you reframe your challenges and turn them into a personal guide to success. Finally, he describes the important lesson he learned from coaching his daughter's youth soccer team: why you don't need a shirt that says “Coach.”Connect with Spencer on LinkedInListen to “Self-Funded with Spencer” podcastWatch Spencer's Stop-Loss Insurance videos on YouTubeLearn more about the Springbuk Health Intelligence platformConnect with our co-hosts Jennifer Jones and Mike Pattengale Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

In today's tight labor market, employers are struggling to identify the unique value proposition that they can offer to prospective employees as well as to retain current staff. For example, the importance of - and desire for - family benefits and mental health have risen dramatically over recent years.Another set of hot-button questions for HR leaders revolves around diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI). What access to care do our employees have? How can we ensure our employee population is supported? Are our policies truly supportive to all our employees, including LGBTQ and every race and ethnicity? Is our pay equity in line? Who do we want to be as a company, culturally? In this episode, Megan Nail, CCP, SHRM-SCP, CEBS, SPHR-CA, shares her experience handling these challenging issues as Vice President of the Total Rewards Practice at First Person Advisors, now a subsidiary of NFP, and State Director for HR Indiana Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM).Megan advises clients on how to meet their organization's goals through total rewards and compensation strategy.

In “Healthcare on the Rocks - Employee Benefits with a Twist,” we talk with employers, benefits advisors, technology innovators, and other experts in wellness, human resources, and healthcare.Our first guest is Scott McGohan, CEO of McGohan Brabender, one of the largest independent health insurance brokers in the Midwest with offices in Dayton, Columbus, Cincinnati, and Indianapolis. Scott works on vision casting, strategy alignment, and leadership deployment. His professional philosophy is that, as a business leader, it is always about the people. Products are delivered by people, and when people believe in themselves they will believe in you. Scott describes himself as “probably a Pollyanna, maybe a unicorn. Definitely an eternal optimist.” He describes the healthcare industry as “a gigantic, epic battleship, and to turn this thing is hard work,” but he believes that together, we can make a massive change in the evolution of the healthcare industry.Like most advisors, McGohan Brabender was great at looking at reports and seeing what had happened. But they were not content with this mostly retroactive approach. They saw how they could use data to look forward to better guide their clients.Hear Scott describe how people react when they learn he changed careers from his beginnings as a diamond salesman to settling down into a 30+ year career in insurance. And listen as he shares the values that drive him and, by extension, the culture of McGohan Brabender.Finally, discover why people run from Scott on Thursdays - but why others flock to his social media posts on those days.Connect with Scott on LinkedInConnect on LinkedIn with our hosts, Jennifer Jones and Mike PattengaleListen to McGohan Bradender's “Side Affects Podcast”Read “The Simple Truths of Service: Inspired by Johnny the Bagger” Have feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

In this episode, we talk with Jason Nordby, who is a senior account executive and partner at M3 Insurance, specializing in employee benefits and coordinating ongoing service for clients to ensure that their coverage meets their needs. Jason is also M3's director of employee benefits captive practice. In this role, he serves as a subject matter expert, strategist, and thought leader on health captives agency-wide.Jason explains how the healthcare system and the insurance world around it were “broken” as he started his career 27 years ago. He describes what benefits captives are and how they came into their own during the early days of Obamacare.He says the introduction of employee benefits captives was the biggest twist he's seen in his career. With this innovation, forward-thinking, data-driven employers could pool together with like-minded organizations to create stability for themselves as purchasers of healthcare insurance. Jason explains how captives allow organizations “to exit a dirty risk pool and enter into a cleaner pool” with other groups that are doing similar things to manage and mitigate risk. This affords employers the benefits of being self-funded while gaining access to more data so they can be more strategic. Lastly, we invite you to weigh in on the heated debate about who asked the better questions: Jennifer or Mike.Connect with Jason on LinkedInConnect on LinkedIn with our hosts, Jennifer Jones and Mike PattengaleHave feedback, questions, or suggestions for show ideas?

We cover: * How a tough loss can kick start a better life * Digital grieving * Why you must use gratitude in your healing And much more Helen Morris is a certified Emotion Code and Body Code based out of Rotorua, New Zealand. She came across this healing modality after tragically losing her 18-year-old daughter, and only child, in a motor vehicle accident in 2017. Prior to this she worked in the health sector in Health Intelligence, supporting general practices in Hawke's Bay with national health initiatives and programmes. From 2009 to 2013 she developed and coordinated an award-winning Before School Check (B4SC) screening programme for - year olds, which she also supported at a National level and contributed to two publications evaluating the programme. In 2012 she was nominated for a leadership award for her contributions locally and nationally to this programme. “There are times in life which are so momentous and pivotal you cease to be the person you were! The loss of my beautiful Tahl Kaleish was one such moment. In the space of an hour I went from being a proud mama of an 18 year old taking on life boldly, to someone who had to learn how to exist without the most important person in her life. This lead me to look at life with a completely new set of lenses from that moment forward. Helen has recently launched a podcast called The Beautiful Side of Grief - your go-to podcast if you are wanting to hear from people who have moved through heart-wrenching loss or those who are at the coal-face supporting this process.

Wouldn't you agree that after 2020, the world needs healing? To many who have lost jobs, loved ones, and freedom. But a wounded world and wounded individuals can often time do us more harm than good. How do we make peace with our hurtful past? How do we move on with our lives from tragedy? We heal. We heal from within so we can have more to draw from within.  Agree? In this episode, I invited Helen Morris, an emotional and body code expert to join me in my Private Facebook Group The Confidence Lounge For Soul-Centered Entrepreneurs to share her experience as a mom who lost her daughter at age 18, and how she turns something terribly tragic into something amazingly beautiful.

In June of this year, presenter of Radio 4's Woman's Hour, Jenni Murray, underwent an operation which removed 75 per cent of her stomach. A few months later, she has lost over 4 stones in weight and her symptoms of Type 2 Diabetes have gone into remission. Once a purely cosmetic procedure, bariatric surgery procedures like this have been described as the greatest advance in the history of treatment of Type 2 diabetes - so why aren't more patients being treated in this way? The National Institute of Clinical Excellence (NICE), which provides guidance and advice to the NHS, has said obese patients with diabetes should be rapidly assessed for surgery - but that's yet to happen. The treatment has been met with fierce criticism, especially from the tabloid press, which declared it undeserved: fat people should just stop eating instead of using up valuable resources to pay for vanity operations. Furthermore, Britain's leading diabetes charity, Diabetes UK, has also warned of the 'serious risks' posed by the procedure - even though the NHS has itself stated it is not more risky than a routine gall bladder operation. The irony here is that increasing the number of bariatric procedures could actually save the NHS millions of pounds, as patients are weaned off costly diabetes drugs - the NHS currently spends around £12bn a year treating the disease. With round 700 people diagnosed with diabetes in Britain every day, are we letting misguided morality get in the way of an opportunity to save money - and lives?

Around 700 people are diagnosed with diabetes in Britain every day, and the condition accounts for around 10 per cent of the NHS budget - but is enough being done to combat the effects of the disease? The National Institute of Clinical Excellence - NICE - is the body which provides guidance and advice to the NHS. It recently published new draft guidelines which proposed increasing access to weight-loss surgery to a wider range of patients diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This announcement was met with fierce criticism, especially from the tabloid press, which declared such treatment as undeserved: fat people should just stop eating instead of using up valuable resources to pay for vanity operations. But some experts say bariatric surgery is the most important development in the history of diabetes treatment and its effectiveness can lead to full remission of type 2 diabetes. In turn, this could end up saving the NHS millions of pounds as patients are weaned off costly drugs, and are less likely to develop complications such as blindness or kidney failure. But is this really a long-term solution? Or do we need to think more radically about how to educate the public about healthy living to really reduce the rapid rise in diabetes diagnoses?
