How to Thrive

When it comes to nutrition advice, there's so much information (and mis-information) out there that it's easy to become overwhelmed. That's where today's podcast guest comes in.

James Collier is the Co-Founder of Huel and now an author, with his new book "Well Fed: How modern diets are failing us and what we can do about it".

In this episode of the How to Thrive Podcast, Claire and Helen talk to James about how to separate nutrition fact from fiction, the importance of critical thinking and why eating with others is beneficial in some surprising ways.

We also find out James' three top tips for thriving as we start the new year with a bang.

"I ignored the warning signs and paid the price, I went into my head and almost never came out."

That powerful statement from Dan Stanley sets the tone for this episode of the How to Thrive podcast, which aims to shine a light on men's mental wellbeing.

Dan says, despite having built himself a life of material success, he came to the realisation that his success was superficial and says his experience nearly cost him his marriage, his sanity and his life.

He shares his personal journey of awakening to the superficiality of traditional masculinity, discusses the historical context of masculinity, the challenges modern men face, and the importance of peer support and community.

Through his experiences, Dan emphasises the need for men to engage in honest conversations, prioritise self-awareness, and redefine their understanding of masculinity.

He also reveals his top tips on how to thrive.

He has published a book called "Rethinking Masculinity" which you can get a copy of from his website: https://www.better-men.uk/rethinking-masculinity-book

“Julia, I am just wondering, who do you ask for support when you need it?” This is the question that set Julia Jones on her journey to becoming a leader in experiential horse-led learning.

Her business, Altezza People, helps teams develop, grow and overcome obstacles by removing them from the office and getting them to interact with horses.

With a vast amount of experience in managing high-performance teams and creating development programmes, Julia says the experience can help people become more self-aware, learn how to modify their behaviour, and how to become more emotionally intelligent.

In this episode of the How to Thrive podcast, co-hosts and sisters Claire Sanders and Helen Silver-MacMahon, learn more about Julia's emotional introduction to the concept, how horse-led learning actually works, and they get Julia's three top tips for thriving.

We all want to be more productive, but are we going about it the right way?

Working longer hours, filling our schedules with back-to-back meetings, and ploughing on through lunch might feel like we're doing more, but there is good evidence that actually taking a break can lead to us being more productive.

Caitlin Rozario is an expert in this field. Built on a foundation of her personal experience with an allergic reaction that left her temporarily blind, she went on to launch Interlude, the anti-toxic productivity bootcamp.

The whole ethos is helping ambitious teams make productivity more sustainable and less toxic.

In this episode of the How to Thrive podcast, co-hosts and sisters Claire Sanders and Helen Silver-MacMahon, cover the benefits of micro-breaks, the "logic defying" billable hour, and Caitlin gives her three top tips on how to thrive.
