    S2. E10. Françoise De Smet "The Fanny Fairy" - Putting The Magic Back Into Your Fanny: The pelvic floor conversation everyone has… but nobody starts.

    WEE NEED TO TALK! Your pelvic floor will thank you… Have you ever reached your front door, put the key in the lock and you've suddenly frozen ... because you need the loo RIGHT NOW? Maybe you automatically cross your legs before you cough, sneeze or laugh? Sound familiar? Then this episode of Feeding Success is for you. Hanna is joined by the amazing, award-winning Françoise De Smet, better known as "The Fanny Fairy" for a funny (!?), frank and surprisingly fascinating conversation about the bladder, bowel and pelvic-floor problems that millions of people; women and men, quietly live with. We uncover why the infamous “door-key wee” happens, why leaking isn’t simply something you should accept after childbirth or menopause, and why endlessly squeezing your pelvic floor may not always be the best answer. Françoise also explains how HYPOPRESSIVE BREATHING can support the whole core and pelvic-floor system and she shares some remarkable stories of people who have regained confidence, freedom and control. There are wees. There are poos. There may even be improved sex! But beneath the giggles is an important message: embarrassment should never stop anyone from seeking help. Press PLAY ... your bladder, bowels and knickers may be very glad you did.

    S2. E8. Megan Batchelor - Creating Freedom Through Fitness: Building A Body That Lets You Live A Better Life

    Today, I’m joined by Megan Batchelor whose approach to fitness goes far beyond workouts, weight loss or what we see in the mirror. Megan Batchelor is the founder of Focused Personal Training (Southampton U.K.) and the host of the Freedom Through Fitness podcast. She is a talented, ambitious and deeply driven personal trainer who believes that fitness should not restrict your life, it should give you more freedom to live it. More freedom to move confidently. More freedom to say yes to opportunities. More freedom to enjoy time with the people you love. And more freedom to keep doing the things that matter to you as you get older. Through Focused Personal Training, Megan and her team are creating a supportive fitness community where everyday people can become stronger, more resilient and more confident, without feeling intimidated, judged or forced into a one-size-fits-all programme. Her own podcast, Freedom Through Fitness, brings that philosophy to life through honest conversations with clients, athletes, health professionals and local inspirational figures and health experts. It explores how movement can help people recover from setbacks, manage health challenges, rebuild confidence and take back control of their lives. What I particularly admire about Megan is that she doesn’t present fitness as punishment for what you ate, or as something reserved for naturally athletic people. She sees fitness as an investment in your future. Because being fit isn’t only about lifting heavier weights or running faster. It might mean being able to get down on the floor and play with your grandchildren. It might mean walking upstairs without becoming breathless. It could mean recovering from illness, reducing pain, protecting your independence, or simply waking up and feeling more capable in your own body. Megan is building a powerful brand, but she is also building something even more important: a community that helps people recognise what their bodies can still do. So today, we’re going to discover what drives her, how she has grown "Focused Personal Training", what she has learnt from the people she coaches and why she believes movement, strength and resilience can create genuine freedom in every area of our lives.

    S2. E7. Saira Mashru - Why knowing what to eat isn’t enough ... and what actually changes behaviour.

    What if the reason you’re not getting results isn’t because you don’t know what to eat? Because let’s be honest, most people already know the basics. Eat less sugar. Move more. Make healthier choices. So why is it still so hard to actually follow through? In this episode of Feeding Success, I’m joined by nutritionist Saira Mashru, founder of Saira Nutrition, who’s on a mission to simplify healthy eating and help people build sustainable habits that actually last. We dive into: Why knowledge alone doesn’t create change What most people get wrong about “healthy eating” The real challenges her clients face behind the scenes And the small, powerful shifts anyone can make starting today But we don’t stop there… Because where Saira brings the science of nutrition, I bring the psychology of eating behaviour and together, we explore the gap between knowing and doing. If you’ve ever felt like: “I know what to do… so why am I not doing it?” This episode will hit home. Press play—and start feeding your success from the inside out.

    S2. E5. Imran Ahmed - The Psychology Of Why We Eat When Not Even Hungry!?

    Our eating habits are rarely about food alone. They’re driven by unmet needs, subconscious patterns and learned behaviours. In today’s episode, I’m joined by Imran Ahmed, founder of SUCCESS PSYCHOLOGY, to explore how our basic human needs shape the way we eat, think and behave, more often than not without us even realising it. If you’ve ever struggled with emotional eating, motivation, or staying consistent, this conversation will give you powerful insights into why it happens and how to change it. If you've ever struggled with losing weight or you work in leadership, coaching, wellbeing, or simply want deeper insight into human behaviour, this conversation will resonate. Let’s get into it.
