About Amid The Mess; Health and Happiness for Parents
Let's be realistic about how messy life is!
This show is for anyone who WANTS to do the healthy things, yet finds it difficult to do, amid the craziness of life with children and/or a busy job!
Let's let go of perfection together, as I interview experts in all sorts of health and wellbeing topics.
We can do this - Amid The Mess!
Life Update! And my Christmas intentions to be a calm, happy parent!
Ever feel like there's NOT enough time to accomplish what you want?
Well, this is definitely where I am finding myself right now!
In this little mini episode I go into why I am taking a little recording break - don't worry! I'll be back before you know it!
Wishing you all a super, duper lovely Christmas with a little tiny bit of self-care time squeezed into the fun, social chaos.
With love,
Jolanthe x

The Uplifting Truth About Your Marriage, Even if You Feel Incompatible | David Helfand
When stress and the parenting rat-race get the better of you, and you’re being snappy with each other… Or when you feel you are just SO different from each other… don’t lose hope.
Dr. David Helfand, licensed psychologist, has some really uplifting news for you.
He shares neuroscience-based insights into how relationships work (and don’t work), AND he gives lots of practical advice for any couples struggling to relate well with each other.
Listen to this even if your relationship is NOT struggling - as it’s a great insight into how to keep things going strong into the future.
With love,

Stay Younger by Changing How You (and Your Children) Think About Ageing | Corinne Auman
You may be buying the anti-wrinkle cream or going hard on the collagen powder… But what if how you THINK can also massively affect how you age?
Corinne Auman is passionate about this message. Together we dive into all the ways that society (and us ourselves) can be ageist, and how this negatively affects our own experience of ageing.
This episode is for anyone who might feel nervous about getting older. It’s a really POSITIVE and hopeful message!
With love,
Jolanthe x
