Podcasts about positive choices

Join Rachel, Sarah and Lucy as we celebrate those people who change the world, be it campaigning for the right to medical treatment, supporting other parents, breaking down barriers, or just making a nuisance of themselves to get the voices of disabled people heard. On this week's episode we open up by reflecting on some of the world changers we know*, and reflect on why and how this is different for the disability community. Rachel is then joined by Hannah Deacon, whose dedication to campaigning for patients' rights succeeded when the law changed on 1 November 2018, which led to cannabis becoming legal as a medical treatment. Her successful campaign on behalf of son Alfie Dingley, who lives with a rare and severe form of epilepsy, led to his doctors receiving the first schedule one license to prescribe whole-plant cannabis in the UK.

There's no way around it that going through a separation is stressful. But, we often look at only the emotional and mental stress and not the toll it takes on our physical bodies. During this time of upheaval and change we often put physical fitness last on the list and neglect our health.

Dara is a veteran trainer and movement educator, specializing in body-neutral movement and mindset for mothers. She is the creator of Belly Bootcamp @bellybootcamp https://bellybootcamp.ca and co-creator of Mama Reset @themamareset https://themamareset.com. We go in-depth on the topics of what "health" means, body image, our obsession with body size, and that overused word "self-care." This is our longest episode yet and we could've kept going!
