    Welcome to Ameliorate

    “Life happens for a reason”...a rather disempowering message, don’t you think? This podcast channel - Ameliorate (latin for to improve) - is about just that: the study of self-betterment, how to rewire the subconscious mind and make life happen because we gave it reason to - not the other way around. Through this medium, I intend to share what I learn and hopefully help humans feel better; not perfect. For tailored advice and coaching services, please check out my website: theautonomydoctor.com

    Imposter Syndrome (#17)

    We've all had it at some point.....apart from Dickie, apparently. So, in this part of the discussion I delve deeper into why he appears to be immune to "imposter syndrome" and how in some circumstances that actually may come at a disadvantage.

    Inner Child Work

    In different scenarios we either show up as the child, the adult or the parent but all subconsciously from learned behavioural patterns dating back to our childhood. In this episode, Dickie and I discuss the landscape of emotions and why men tend to struggle expressing their feelings, as well as touching upon the topic of the 'inner child' informed by the works of Jung & Adler.

    Become A Quitter

    Interesting "click-baity" title, but there is some sense to it. Society conditions you to think that this hedonic treadmill is the way to get ahead in life; however, in the wrong vocation - this can feel very unfulfilling. The first step is to gain some insight about your reality, followed by the next move of seeing if this career path you're on is aligned with who you are as a person and your values. Step 3 is evaluating your options and then....taking action. Step 4 is easier said than done, and I needed someone else to give me the permission I couldn't grant myself, but sometimes that's all you need to take the leap.

    Move Less & Eat More

    Last week I touched upon the contentious issue of dieting, weight loss and the trap one can get into when you start eating less and less. However, the flip side is when you take it to the other extreme, which is what I did, and eliminate virtually all rest days when you start seeing results. This inevitably led to an injury because that was the only way my body could make me stop, and caused me to re-evaluate my internal health - rather than using 'physical aesthetics' as the barometer for longevity. Chronic stress is real and more so than ever in this modern era of social media, notifications and overstimulation. I learned the hard way of what happens to my body, bones and female hormone profile when you spend decades(!) ignoring high cortisol levels; and so, I thought I would share what I discovered to hopefully prevent others from doing the same.

    “Eat Less & Move More” Model is Flawed

    The less you eat, the lower your metabolism drops and this is why during anybody's weight loss journey we inevitably hit that frustrating 'plateau' where we can't seem to lose anymore. Why? Insulin. Learn how to harness the power of hormones and then see the results for yourself.

    RED-S: Relative Energy Deficiency in Sport - Dr Lamia

    RED-S or formerly known as the Female Athlete Triad doesn't just happen in athletes - both women and men (albeit less so) are susceptible to this when there is an imbalance in the calories going out vs calories coming in. I discuss this phenomenon in detail with Dr Lamia Zafrani - the only sports obstetrics & gynaecology consultant in the UK!!! Hope you enjoy this episode just as much as I did.
