Urinary tract infections — or UTIs — aren't the most glamorous topic, but they're incredibly important, and we just don't talk about them enough. If you've ever had one, you'll know how miserable they can be: the burning, the stinging, those endless trips to the loo, the pain, and that bone-crushing fatigue. They can really knock you sideways.For many women, UTIs become more common — and more stubborn — during perimenopause and menopause.In this episode, I'm joined by the brilliant Helen Lake, a specialist urology nurse, to help us understand why UTIs happen, why they mustn't be ignored, and what you can do about them — from medical treatments to nutrition and supplements.Helen explains everything you need to know about identifying, understanding, and managing UTIs — and hopefully banishing them for good. We cover the key symptoms, prevention strategies like staying hydrated and double-voiding, why test results aren't always conclusive, and when antibiotics are needed. We also look at the role of beneficial bacteria, cranberry and D-mannose, vaginal moisturisers, topical oestrogen, and how to advocate for yourself with your GP.If you've found this episode helpful, please share it with a friend who might benefit too.

In this episode of the LeadCulture Podcast, Jenni Catron unpacks a surprising new Gallup study revealing what she calls “the remote work paradox.” While fully remote employees report the highest levels of engagement, they're also less likely to be thriving in life overall—experiencing more stress, loneliness, and emotional fatigue than their hybrid or in-office peers.Drawing from her own work-from-home reflections and years of coaching leaders, Jenni explores the delicate balance between autonomy and connection in today's hybrid workplaces. She highlights three key leadership takeaways from Gallup's findings:Physical distance creates mental distance—why remote employees need intentional connection rhythms.Autonomy can be stressful—how too much flexibility without structure increases cognitive load.Technology can frustrate—and what leaders can do to minimize coordination fatigue.Whether your team is remote, hybrid, or fully onsite, Jenni helps you rethink how to build engagement that doesn't cost wellbeing—and how to cultivate a culture where your people can be both engaged and thriving.We need your help to get the LeadCulture podcasts in front of more leaders!

We happily welcome Dr. Adi Soffer to Diverse Thinking Different Learning this week! Adi Soffer, PsyD is a licensed psychologist who works with children, teens, and families, and she combines family structure therapy with evidence-based practices to help families strengthen communication, establish healthy boundaries, and deepen emotional connections. Passionate about guiding parents and children through challenges such as anxiety, behavioral issues, and major life changes, Dr. Soffer offers care via her private practice, Kesher Psychological Services. She sees clients in Los Angeles and provides virtual sessions throughout California and Florida. When a child is struggling with learning, behavioral, or emotional challenges, the focus is often on finding the right therapy for the child. However, as Dr. Adi Soffer explains, this approach may be missing an important piece - the family system. She firmly believes that families function as interconnected systems, and when one member is struggling, the whole system feels the impact. By shifting the focus from fixing the child to strengthening the entire family system, families can reduce stress, improve relationships, and lead to better outcomes for kids and teens. Dr. Soffer outlines her approach to family systems therapy, bringing the entire family into the first session, not just "the identified patient." Instead of discussing the child's problems, she asks questions about the family's dynamics, traditions, and what they would like to change. This allows her to observe the family's communication patterns, boundaries, and power dynamics. She also highlights the importance of understanding the family's structure and communication style, as these factors can deeply impact a child's emotional well-being and behavior. Dr. Soffer explains how poor communication, conflict avoidance, or unclear expectations can contribute to ongoing stress at home, which in turn affects the child. By working with the family, however, she helps them develop healthier communication and set clear expectations and boundaries. This, in turn, can reduce the child's anxiety and stress, as they no longer have to worry about the unpredictability of their home environment. We also explore how the family systems approach shifts when working with teenagers, who are often pushing for more independence, with Dr. Soffer discussing the importance of balancing the teen's need for autonomy with the family's need for involvement and how this can create an environment of empathy and connection within the family. Overall, we highlight the powerful impact that a family systems approach can have on supporting children and teens struggling with various challenges. By addressing the entire family system, therapists can create lasting change and help the whole family thrive.   Show Notes: [3:03] - Hear how Dr. Adi Soffer begins therapy by including the entire family system rather than isolating the child. [6:43] - Dr. Soffer observes family dynamics via structured activities, games, and collaborative drawing. [9:32] - Family therapy examines communication, boundaries, and where each member fits in the relational hierarchy. [12:21] - Dr. Soffer makes the case that clear routines and consistent boundaries reduce chaos and help children feel secure and less anxious. [14:29] - Parents often unintentionally reinforce anxiety by teaching children that the world is frightening. [16:27] - Therapy highlights how children's struggles often reflect parental triggers and emotional challenges. [19:29] - Removing the "identified patient" label eases a child's burden and reduces family pressure. [20:13] - Dr. Soffer argues that constant focus on negative behavior teaches children to internalize damaging beliefs about themselves. [22:02] - Teens need both autonomy and clear parental boundaries to be successfully independent. [25:28] - Families begin to align as a team when therapy highlights shared responsibility and individual identity. [27:39] - Dr. Soffer explains how emotional Jenga can help parents model vulnerability and normalize healthy emotional expression for children. [30:27] - Hear how a teen realized that his parents' feelings mattered too after returning from a month away. [32:34] - Dr. Soffer argues that parents build resilience by balancing support with boundaries and not over-accommodating their kids. [35:09] - A parent's real role is preparing children to face failure, rejection, and life's challenges. [36:18] - It's important for children to face discomfort and uncertainty instead of being shielded by anxious parents. [39:18] - Dr. Soffer asserts that focusing on family strengths can transform household dynamics and improve the overall atmosphere. [40:38] - How can Dr. Soffer be reached?

Last week we mapped the mindset, the stories you tell yourself, and the move from autopilot to intention. This week, we pick up the thread and turn it into action. We look at identity and habit, and how Daniel Kahneman's brain operating System 1 loves routine while System 2 builds new skills. We name the real worries around jobs, inequality and risk, and keep ethics, data care and the Environment in view. Then we bring it back to you, your relationships, your leadership and your WellBeing. Start here when you plan how AI works with you:Mindset to action: Notice your first reaction. Choose curiosity. Make one intentional change.Identity and value: When you hear “that is not me”, pause. Your value is more than tasks. Choose how you show up.Make the path easy: Put one AI tool on your home screen. Use one ready prompt. Try one focused task this week.Redesign your role: Map You and AI in a simple Venn. List what AI can do. Add what only you can input, interpret and apply.You will leave with one clear aim. Choose intention over fear, so you happen to the world, rather than the world happening to you.

In this episode I chat to Lou Furby, Specsavers' UK D&I lead, who shares how Specsavers built a workplace menopause support program from the ground up. We cover the creation of MenoTalk, the importance of inclusive, cross-functional involvement, the role of top-down sponsorship and allyship, practical strategies for creating a supportive workplace culture around menopause, and how to sustain momentum with education, language, and data. Packed with actionable tips for anyone aiming to start or grow a menopause-focused employee resource or wellbeing initiative. Key quotes “Don't try and do it all on your own. Get the right stakeholders involved. Have a steering group, a co-chair, and a sponsor.” “Pick off the low hanging fruit. Pick off the stuff that you can do and implement quickly.” “It's a war, not a battle.” (on sustaining momentum and not letting initiatives stall) “Education and information was absolutely key.” (on the foundation for successful engagement) “Language matters. Be direct and transparent about what menopause is.” (on avoiding euphemisms and building credibility) “We can't mandate everything in a joint venture, so we rely on leadership visibility and storytelling to drive engagement.” Practical takeaways for HR & wellbeing teams: Start with a steering group: bring cross-functional representation (HR/ER, facilities, IT, wellbeing/D&I) and appoint a co-chair to share the load. Secure an advocate sponsor: a trusted, visible leader in the business to champion the initiative. Listen first: let people's needs drive the program; avoid overloading participants with campaigns before trust is built. Use language that's clear and factual: don't shy away from the terminology of menopause and related symptoms. Connect with external expertise: partner with specialists to provide credible education and resources.  Implement quick wins: pick “low hanging fruit” that deliver tangible benefits.  Align with broader wellbeing and D&I goals: link the initiative to accreditation (Wellbeing of Women Workplace pledge) and overall staff welfare programs. Consider store-level realities: in retail, tailor adjustments to individual roles (e.g., door duty vs. back office) and support teams accordingly. Support managers with tools and training: give managers a framework for having compassionate, validating conversations. Provide holistic support: combine access to private care, wellbeing apps (Headspace), and flexible adjustments to support employees. Three actionable next steps you can take Create a cross-functional steering group and appoint a co-chair and a sponsor to lead a menopause initiative in your organization. Sign up for the Wellbeing of Women Workplace pledge and plan an introductory menopause education session with an external expert. Start a candid conversation with your HR/ER team about how to support line managers in having empathetic, validated conversations about menopause with their teams; aim to roll out basic manager training.   Resources: Connect with Lou over on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/lou-furby-49290844/ For menopause training and awareness sessions: www.managingthemenopause.com   If you enjoy the podcast please help us grow by sharing this episode, or writing a review.

If you've never read all the way to the bottom of the episode notes, you won't know what PRSL is. Now you do. It's a good name for an episode, but seriously, go check out www.punkrocksaveslives.org. They're solid folks doing really kickass work. Not like this podcast.In this episode, the boys start off debating the merits of bacon and egg rolls. Or egg and bacon rolls, because priorities.Pretty quickly, things go headfirst into the world of “wellbeing,” getting glued onto safety job titles. We're talking about how psychosocial risk has (sometimes) become the new buzzword, and whether that's actually making work better or just giving us more posters and press releases.We dig into whether safety is the right place for wellbeing, or if it's just being dumped there because no one else knows where to put it. The real deal? Wellbeing only matters if we fix the work itself. Stop with the mindfulness sessions between 13 meetings and start giving people real control over their jobs. The wellbeing that really works: redesigning the work, not the posters.If “wellness” just means more compliance for the sake of it, we'll get the same result we got with a lot of efforts around culture - a brand campaign with no change to the conditions of work.And yeah, Ron's sleep pods might've been reasonable, but Dave's story about an actual Australian office having a “masturbation station” took a turn no one expected. Ben reminds us, if your safety work can't tie to actual wellbeing, maybe it's just busy work. But when you fix the work, people get better by default. Or because of the pods.Bottom line: Wellbeing is more than fruit bowls and yoga mats, and if we don't change the work, we're just putting lipstick on the same old compliance pig. DISCLAIMER: You probably shouldn't take anything in this podcast too seriously. Punk Rock Safety is for entertainment only. It's definitely not a replacement for professional or legal advice, and the fair amount of piss-taking, shithousery, and general ridiculousness ought to clue you into the fact that no one - and no organization - is endorsing (or un-endorsing, if that's a thing) any products, ideas, or other things.

In this episode of More Yourself, I wanted to share a clip from a recent ADHD Women's Wellbeing live session that explored the concept of generativity versus stagnation —a theme that is very prevalent among late-diagnosed ADHD women.This concept, rooted in Erik Erikson's psychosocial development theory, invites us to reflect on how we create meaning and contribute to our own lives and to others as we move through the different stages of adulthood. For those of us who received a diagnosis later in life, this understanding can be transformative. It reminds us that our diagnosis isn't the end, it's the beginning of a new chapter.My new book, The ADHD Women's Wellbeing Toolkit, is now available, grab your copy here!What I discuss:Erikson's 8 stages of psychosocial development viewed through a neurodivergent lens.The impact of unconscious masking on ADHD traits and energy levels.The concept of generativity vs. stagnation for late-diagnosed ADHD women.Seeing a late diagnosis as a new chapter for authenticity and evolution.The role of meaningful connection in women's reconnection with their identity post-diagnosis.The power of embracing change in midlife and beyond.Timestamps00:33 – Understanding ADHD and Psychosocial Development03:30 – Overview of Erikson's 8 Stages of Psychosocial Development05:26 – Life Stages Through a Neurodivergent Lens07:17 – Generativity vs. Stagnation Explained07:54 – Generativity as a New Chapter of Potential09:40 – Embracing Change and Authenticity12:16 – Closing Reflections and Personal GrowthJoin the More Yourself Community - the doors are now open!More Yourself is a compassionate space for late-diagnosed ADHD women to connect, reflect, and come home to who they really are.

I've had so many jobs over the years — from babysitter to office administrator — and I didn't know until much later that my struggles in certain environments were connected to being autistic.

What happens when we ask our own fantastic listeners — and AI — what it means to live wisely? In this episode, Igor and Charles hand the mic to members of the On Wisdom audience to hear their answers to the big questions usually reserved for scientists and philosophers. But there's a twist: one set of responses was provided by AI. We invite you to vote on who gave the wisest answers — and to guess which one wasn't human. Igor is surprised by just how insightful the answers from the regular folk (compared to experts) turn out to be, while Charles wonders if the wisest one may not be human at all? Can you pass the Wisdom Turing Test? Welcome to Episode 66.

Help Me Make a Difference Hey, it's Paul here, and this episode is a little different. I want to ask for your help — because I really want to make a difference. For years I've been putting out two episodes a week — a Five-Minute Quickie and a longer one — and to be honest, it's been tough to keep up. More than that, I've realised I want to go deeper. I want to spend more time on the stuff that really matters — the stuff that helps people change for good. So, from now on, I'll be doing one episode a week. Sometimes it'll be a short FMQ to plant a seed, and sometimes a longer one where we dive deep — with hypnosis, NLP, and all the good stuff that helps you change from the inside out. But here's the thing… I can't do it on my own. We all have our struggles, right? The things we keep bottled up because we don't want to seem weak, or we don't know who to talk to. I've seen too many people suffer in silence — and I don't want that to happen anymore. So I'd love your help. Tell me what's really going on for you — or maybe for someone you know. What's the thing you or they are struggling with? And just as important — how would you like to feel instead? That's where the real change begins. When you can imagine what it's like to feel better, to feel free, confident, peaceful — then we can start making that happen together. Please share this message https://personaldevelopmentunplugged.com/help-me-make-a-difference/ You can email me (anonymously if you like) at feedback@personaldevelopmentunplugged.com I'd be so grateful to hear from you. Let's make this podcast something that doesn't just help you — but helps others too. Let's make it a real community of change. Thanks for being here, for listening, and for being part of this. Shine brightly, Paul And the transcript WARNING if you're a lover of the written word this may make you frustrated, or angry - you have been warned - is it an 'ism Help me make a difference Hi, how you doing? I don't think we ask that enough, do we? How are you doing? And mean it. Sometimes I think we have to ask at least three times to the same person. Really? How you doing? Really? How you doing? And what am I talking about? What am I talking about? Well, I'm going to change the format of the Personal Development Unplugged podcast.   For the last years and years and years and years and years, I've been cracking out two podcasts a week, five minute quickie and a longer version. And it's taken its toll a little bit because I find it really difficult to fit it all in. And my mind is that there's important things to talk about where we need to go into depth, find processes that really make a difference, approach the difficult subjects.   And I think to do that, I'm only going to do a weekly podcast. And one of those will be a seed, a five minute quickie still, but it'll be a seed for a longer podcast so I can get you to think. Think and get ready for something deeper.   But the whole point is I want to help people. I want to help people more than I've been doing. And to do that, again, I say we've got to approach these subjects, which are a little bit not taboo, but maybe they're not spoken about quite so much.   And I'm noticing it happening a bit more now. You know, guys opening up, being strong and saying they need help. Unfortunately, there's one or two that we've seen in the news that don't.   Damn, we miss them. It's too big a shame and we need to do something about it. And that's just not guys.   It's everyone. We all have our struggles. And sometimes these struggles can seem so much because they're all inside, aren't they? They're in our bloody head and we seem to think that we have to deal with them by ourselves because it's weak to tell anybody about it.   Or find the right person. Or I can't afford to get the therapy I need. I can't even admit I need therapy.   And that's no fucking good to anybody. So what I want to do is to get deeper into subjects. Take a little time to get things right.   I know. But I want to do deeper subjects with real deep hypnosis to get the unconscious mind to change. Because a lot of these issues that we have, they're in our bloody head.   And they're not caused consciously. You think about it consciously. But if you had created it consciously, you would change easily, effortlessly.   Just by thinking about it. Because you create things consciously, you change things consciously. But these are at an unconscious level.   They're like unconscious behaviours. That limiting belief, those emotions, those negative emotions. And although they're, well I believe they're there to protect us.   I just know there's better ways. And it's your unconscious mind needs guiding. It needs help to create change at the unconscious level.   Because this is where our issues are created. Something happens to us and our unconscious mind decides to help. Unfortunately, sometimes it doesn't.   It creates negative emotions. Has a limiting belief just to keep us safe. But then it carries on.   But that's where I'm going to need your help. Because we all have these issues. And I'd like you to, you can do it anonymously.   But just email me. Maybe if you want to email me. I'm on Instagram, Facebook, all those bloody places.   But email me would be better. And just give me an idea of the type of things that we're struggling with. Maybe a friend of yours who's struggling.   And you can just give me an idea of the things that are happening. And more importantly, and this is the thing and the thing what people forget. If we're talking about you or them, how you want to feel instead.   How they want to feel instead of having this issue. Because that's the most important thing. If we can just imagine that if everything disappeared.   All the issues were to disappear right now. How would I like to be? How would I like to be physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally? What type of beliefs would support me? And if you can pass it on to me, I'd be so indebted to you. So we can really make a difference.   And I want to make a difference. I know this small little podcast has made a difference to people. But I want to make a more significant difference to you and your friends.   So if that's something you could help with, please do let me know. And I'm sorry that I'm not going to do like two weekly podcasts anymore. But I want to get deeper as I say.   You know, some things I don't like the click baits that people are doing. I don't like all this, you know, easy ways to do this and that. We're going to change things and they are going to be easy.   But easy doesn't mean it doesn't take effort. It takes effort. It takes discipline.   And it takes a will to do whatever it takes. But if you know how you want to feel, then I know you will have that will to do whatever it takes. So let's please make a difference.   Please help me make a difference. So take a moment or two, just notice how you want to feel. And if you're not feeling that way, let me know.   Let me know what you're feeling and what you're not feeling. And let's start making a difference to you, to me. So I hope you're going to enjoy the things.   Please say, give me comments, feedback if we're going into the right directions. You know, there's so many different things we could talk about, but there is so much going on in the world that needs our mental help. Mental health needs support.   So let's do that together. Let's change the world together. Be the change you want to see in other people.   Show what is possible because it is. It's all possible. I've seen it so many times in the clinic that people coming in feeling so, so down.   And in one or two sessions, they change. And they change their lives and they change. And because they change, it's not a do to, it's a do with.   We work together. They change and that confidence spreads in so many different areas of their life. The whole life changes.   Everyone they know changes around them. Life gets so much better and life can always get a bit better, a little bit more better. So if this is something you feel you could help or help me with, I'd really love your help.   But disregarding that, I'm going to do it anyway. I'm just going to do what I can and hopefully you'll see a difference. And again, I always say if you could just share this with somebody, because the more this podcast gets out to just a few more people, a few more, because I'm only interested in hitting the people who need, who want the help, who need the help.   It's not about clicks. It's getting real good processes to make or to allow people to change, to guide people to change, get back to driving your bus, become the person you are meant to be and more. There you go.   That's this little, little thing that why I'm going to change the podcast. Hope you like it and sending my love to you. Okay.   Please enjoy.

When the world feels heavy, choosing joy can sound naïve. We think it's the most practical move you can make. In this heartfelt episode, we share how a brutal “year of authenticity” led to a bold decision to claim a “year of joy,” and why that choice reshaped daily life. You'll hear a reading from Small Pearl's Big Wisdom titled We Will Have Joy, then we unpack how gratitude and delight fade without tending, and how to bring them back through simple, repeatable practices.We explore joy as medicine for the soul: the counterweight that steadies your nervous system and expands your perspective during hard seasons. From dance rehearsals that dissolve stress in minutes to tiny present-moment miracles like a dog napping belly-up, we show how nothing outside needs to change for your inner state to shift. Joy doesn't erase facts; it equips you to meet them with more compassion, creativity, and clarity. You'll learn how to set morning intentions, close your day with a quick “what was joyful” check, and use movement, nature, and mindful naming to anchor goodness in real time.This conversation is for anyone who feels stretched thin yet wants a grounded way back to aliveness. We make the case that joy is not a reward for finishing the hard work; it's the fuel that makes the hard work possible. Walk away with practical tools to cultivate joy now, not “someday,” and a gentle nudge to claim even a few drops on the toughest days. If this resonated, tap follow, share it with a friend who needs light today, and leave a review to help more hearts find their way here.Tune in next week for a new episode to support and empower your light--Your Heart Magic is a space where heart wisdom, spirituality, and psychology meet.

Episode 3777: Elly McGuinness reminds us that the key to sustained wellbeing and stress relief lies in prioritizing “me time.” Through simple daily rituals and even micro-moments of self-care, she shows how nurturing yourself first allows everything else in life to fit together more harmoniously. Her message encourages mindful self-prioritization as an act of love that ripples through all areas of life. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ellymcguinness.com/blog/me-time/ Quotes to ponder: “If you don't allow for ‘me time' and put yourself last, in the long run you'll have no energy or enthusiasm to help anyone else.” “Take care of you first. Have your ‘me time' and then everything else will fit in around that.” “Give yourself some love and attention and that will flow into the rest of your day.” Episode references: Boho Beautiful Yoga: https://www.youtube.com/c/bohobeautiful Learn more about your ad choices.
