Enough is enough:
The conversation ends with a reference to Lucy's recent TED Talk, where she introduces the concept of taking oneself and others by the hand and boldly declaring "enough is enough."

Welcome to Wellthy Living Conversation episode 69 with guest Nathalie Martinek.

Nathalie is an ex-systems biology and cancer researcher turned Narcissism Hacker, consultant and independent medical culture researcher. As a highly attuned observer Nathalie became acutely alive to the fact that toxic behaviours metastasise, just like the tumours she once studied. As a global consultant for leaders, investors and executives in healthcare, tech and related industries, she specialises in helping individuals and teams navigate professional relationships that feature narcissistic behaviours. Her clients develop skills and strategies to successfully negotiate with corporate psychopaths and prevent psychological, financial or reputational harm.

Many women struggle or have struggled with aggression and bullying by other women. Actually stats show that of the bullying cases lead by women in the workplace, 80% of those cases are woman on woman.

In this episode we explore lateral ( women on women) aggression & bullying in the workplace. What is it? How it plays out? Reasons it happens? How to recognise it’s happening? Why some women ( and men) deny it’s existence, why it even matters? and whether we can stop it, if so how?

This topic really challenges myths about women and sisterhood, it's a big, insightful and possibly confronting conversation.

Welcome to Wellthy Living Conversation episode 68 with special guest Amy Loughren (the real nurse behind the Netflix movie 'The GoodNurse'.)

Amy worked for many years as an overloaded trauma/ICU/ER nurse but in 2003 her life path changed. In this very authentic, open conversation Amy shares her story of unknowingly befriending a serial killer - Charles Cullen in 2001 and her intense journey in helping detectives put him in jail. Amy generously took me through the deep layers of her personal quest in self-discovery this very unique experience took her on.

The conversation was deep and full of thought provoking insights. We talked about friendship, family, trauma, betrayal, denial, boundaries, compassion, accountability, aligning to values, a bigger purpose, breaking intergenerational healing, and more.

There were tangents and that uncovered lots of takeaways.

Normal people can do extraordinary things is one takeaway that Amy would like you to walk away with.

Until next time remember connection is medicine.

Welcome to Wellthy Living Conversations episode 67 with guest Jimi Hunt.

(N.B - we experienced a couple of connection issues that affected the sound quality in parts but it's mostly fine)

Talking about Mental health and mental illness is commonplace these days. They are on the agenda in schools, workplaces, government organisations, community groups, media, and across all social media networks. This is a great step forward in mental health awareness and de-stigmatising mental illness but I wonder how much real-life courageous action people are taking to live a happier, more meaningful, and connected life.

My guest today - Jimi Hunt is someone who takes courageous and some may even say outrageous action to live his best life and in turn has made it his mission to help people be happier and healthier, by making himself happier and healthier, he refers to it as Moving people up the Mental fitness continuum to become mentally fitter.

Jimi is known for his Guinness World Record for building the world's longest waterslide and for flowing down the longest river in New Zealand on a lilo.

In the episode we discussed:

-The difference between mental health and mental fitness

-Why the mental health stats are as they are

-The role society plays in our mental health and the mental illness epidemic

-Where the focus needs to be to change the stats

-The mental fitness continuum and some simple daily steps to move up it

-The importance of radical ownership and personal responsibility

-The role connection plays in mental health and mental fitness

-The importance of groups or accountability partners in order to improve mental wellbeing

-How do we get and stay motivated?

-The importance of role modeling as a way to teach

-The effectiveness of a peer-to-peer model in creating a ripple effect


There were so many great takeaways from this episode. Here are five:

1. There's no point in collecting a bunch of great information if we don't do anything with it
2. Consistency is key - take small steps each day
3. The greater the inequity in society the higher the rate of mental illness
4. Content and hang out with people who have done the thing you want to do
5. The greatest motivator is progress
