But, it turns out that what we eat can have a significant impact on our mental wellbeing, and the latest research shows that our gut has an important role to play.

This week, we sit down with nutritionist Dr Emily Prpa to explore the science of the gut-brain axis and the microbiome. We uncover the 5 pillars of gut health, and discuss strategies for adding gut-friendly ingredients to our meals - even during times of stress.

She has first-hand experience of facing studying for her ACCA qualification and becoming a new parent for the first time.

Navigating parenthood

Tossing and turning, racing thoughts of revision and exams... most of us know what it feels like to struggle with our sleep when we're preparing for a big challenge. And it can be tempting to sacrifice sleep when we're under time pressure, even though we know it's good for us. It's a real catch 22.

This week, we sit down with Professor Russell Foster from the University of Oxford. He's been studying sleep for decades, so together we dig into what's happening in our brains when we sleep, why it's so important for our health and wellbeing, and how we can prioritise our sleep to help us cope with stress.

This week, we’re looking at anxiety.

Whether its last-minute jitters before an exam or a sense of panic when thinking about revision, we all know what it's like to feel anxious. But, what actually is anxiety? Is there any purpose to experiencing it, and how can we manage our fears so they don't get in the way of achieving our goals?

This week, we sit down with therapist and author Joshua Fletcher, also known online as Anxiety Josh. We dig into what's happening in the brain when we're feeling anxious, and techniques and strategies we can all use to help us feel more grounded when it's all getting too much.
