    Can Tech Help Us Live Better? with Andreas Zimmer

    In this dynamic episode, Attika travels to Berlin for Positive Solace’s first international trip - to explore how fashion-forward technology is changing the future of health and wellbeing. At the launch of the Huawei Watch 5, she sits down with Andreas Zimmer, Head of Product for Huawei Consumer Business Group (Europe), to discuss how wearable smart tech is becoming personally orientated. Made with 904L stainless steel and sapphire glass, the Huawei Watch 5 blends luxury with purpose. Together they explore features like real-time blood oxygen monitoring, stress and heart rate tracking, and advanced sleep analysis and how they are putting wellbeing back in our own hands. In a world where NHS patients often wait weeks to be seen and global appointments can last less than five minutes this conversation asks: can technology help us feel more connected, supported and in control of our own wellbeing? Thanks to the teams at MSL Group and Huawei for inviting us!

    Politics Solace: UK Post-Election Special

    You may be wondering what the future holds for the UK, following this week's General Election results. The Labour Party's landslide win, the decimation of the previously-ruling Conservatives and Scottish Nationalists, a small but undoubtedly loud smattering of far-right Reform UK representatives and the notable collective of pro-Palestine activists will all take the shape of the next Parliament. In the concluding part of our Politics Solace election specials, Attika and Tom are joined by Sir Gerald Howarth - a former Government Minister and Conservative MP for Aldershot from 1997-2017, Nigel Griffiths - former Deputy Leader of the House of Commons and Labour MP for Edinburgh South between 1987-2010, and Charlotte John, from the organisation Simple Politics. *** Make sure to check out for Positive Solace's Instagram, YouTube and TikTok for more.

    Reframing Relationships with Ismael Gomez III

    In this season finale of Positive Solace Attika opens the conversation to see how men see and view women. Ever found yourself checking in to the Heartbreak Hotel? Maybe a past relationship has broken down, and you're still experiencing the pain long afterward? Attika turns to Speaker, Author and Film Director, Ismael Gomez III, whose advice-type videos on relationships, dating and emotional intimacy have amassed millions of views on Instagram and TikTok. Ismael holds the view that every relationship yields a learning curve, even when they don't end as intended. Together with Attika, they muse over how men and women perceive love, respect and intimacy differently from one another. It's an intriguing and thought-provoking episode that encapsulates this season's investigation into love and healing this time from a man's viewpoint. Check out more of Ismael's advice and wisdom on his website - www.savethemessenger.com We'd like to thank you for listening to Positive Solace season 3!

    Constellations of Love with Marwani Hassan

    In the penultimate episode of Season 3, Attika speaks with Mawarni Hassan, in what is an undoctored and revealing conversation about her experiences of love, pain and loss. After suffering the pain of losing her first love, in 2022, Mawarni had even more poignant and powerful perspective from which to view her journey of love in all its different facets: the twists, turns and, in her case, the ultimate, unforeseeable, final resting point. Mawarni is a very successful entrepreneur based in Malaysia who runs her own consultancy while also helping start up businesses. She has worked in the corporate sector and in the cosmetics industry. She continues to explore and discover what love is, and the balance she is searching between faith and her working life.

    Breaking the trauma cycle with Dr Mariel Buqué

    In this thought-provoking and stirring episode, Attika gets to the bottom of overcoming trauma. Dr Mariel Buqué is a successful, black, psychologist originally from the Dominican Republic; she is also an author and world-renowned in the treatment of intergenerational trauma - the concept of generational challenges within families. Attika questions Dr Buqué about trauma and how to heal. Dr Buqué has integrated holistic methods into her work, along with indigenous healing practices which have helped to uncover layers of trauma for an entire generation of clients as well as delving into her own personal experience of identity, trauma and healing as someone of Afro-Latina roots. The question is who are you? What exactly does intergenerational trauma entail? And how can we, in our everyday lives, help one another heal the wounds and resultant trauma and break the cycle  through loving and understanding of each other. If you've listened to this episode, and can relate to the discussed topics, Dr. Mariel recommended these links to us for your reference: https://www.betterhelp.comhttps://www.drmarielbuque.com/#resources You can order Mariel's book, "Break The Cycle", here: US Orders: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/714176/break-the-cycle-by-dr-mariel-buque/ UK Orders: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Break-Cycle-Intergenerational-intergenerational-abundance/dp/1785044281/ref=sr_1_2?crid=2HLMXBHYUYQD8&keywords=break+the+cycle+dr.+mariel&qid=1681472364&sprefix=break+the+cycle+dr.+mariel%2Caps%2C169&sr=8-2 With thanks to the Positive Solace team.

    Laughter, Grief and Identity with Eshaan Akbar

    In this funny and energising episode Attika reconnects with Eshaan Akbar, a British comedian, writer and actor of Bangladeshi-Pakistani heritage. Eshaan's story is quite unique - working initially as a banker, he found his true calling in stand-up comedy after suddenly losing his mother, and has been steadily growing in stature from performing at open mic nights, leading to appearances on prime time BBC shows QI and Mock The Week, to now having his very own tour - 'The Pretender' and playing a role in the upcoming season 4 of Netflix's 'Sex Education'. Attika and Eshaan explore identity, the language used to describe them and what their heritage means to them both, as well as the labels and tropes they've had to endure growing up as people of South Asian descent in Britain. And how impactful their roles in the media have been to date. Check out tickets and locations for Eshaan's first ever national tour, 'The Pretender' here: https://www.eshaanakbar.com/tour With thanks to the Positive Solace team.

    Belonging to Kashmir with Ahmer Khan

    This week, Attika explores freedom and fulfilment with two time Emmy nominated journalist Ahmer Khan. Growing up in the region of Jammu and Kashmir, Ahmer has seen his paradisiacal homeland be the epicentre of a conflict between India and Pakistan, which has been ongoing since the partition of India in 1947. Despite these troubles at home, and the lack of resources and contacts, Ahmer has become an award-winning journalist, telling stories of humanitarian crisis, conflict, human rights issues and migration particularly in South Asia. Attika and Ahmer dive into an open conversation on one's identity, healing that is needed, as a consequence growing up, living and working in a region wracked with tension and uncertainty - something that Ahmer says he is 'used to' - should that be the case?
