    Natterbox: Episode 5 - Menopause Edition

    To mark World Menopause Day on 18th October, Chris and Nicola are joined by Amanda Martland, Forbes’ Menopause Champion. Amanda opens up about her own journey through perimenopause — a journey that saw her resign from a 22-year career due to debilitating symptoms. After struggling to find the support she needed from her GP, Amanda took matters into her own hands.  Now, as our Menopause Champion, she’s using her experience to support other women across Forbes, raise awareness, and challenge stigma around menopause in the workplace. Tune in for an open, honest and empowering conversation that shows how lived experience can drive real change. The books she recommends -  • Menopausing (Davina McColl with Dr Naomi Potter) • The Definitive Guide to the Perimenopause & Menopause (Dr Louise Newson) • The Menopause Brain (Dr Lisa Mosconi)

    In this edition of Natterbox, hosts Nicola Dawn and Chris Bowers are joined by Alistair Gillespie, Partner in our Insurance Team. Alastair speaks openly about his Autism diagnosis, sharing how it has shaped both his career and his life, as well as his desire to use his experiences to help others.

    Natterbox: Episode 3

    Mental health is more than a checkbox, it’s about creating cultures of care that truly make a difference. In the latest episode of Natterbox, Dave Scholes of Six Connections  shares his journey after losing a close friend to suicide, and how his business is helping to break the stigma by encouraging real, human conversations — in workplaces, pubs, and communities. Because talking about mental health is more than raising awareness, it’s about building understanding, compassion and lasting change.
