    Life after a brain haemorrhage: Going back to work and starting a family

    In this episode, we’re joined by Catherine Anderson, who generously shares her story of returning to work and rebuilding her life after a brain haemorrhage, including starting a family. Catherine also talks openly about the emotional, practical, and psychological challenges of recovery, including the process of grieving who she once was while learning to embrace the new version of herself. We’ll also discuss the broader perspective on recovery — how brain haemorrhages force us to ask what really matters, and how survivors can redefine purpose, identity, and meaning in life. Today we will be covering: ●      The challenges of returning to work and daily life after a brain haemorrhage ●      Managing fatigue, cognitive changes, and feeling like a stranger in your old role ●      The emotional contradictions of grieving your former self while leaning into the new you ●      Starting a family after a brain haemorrhage This conversation helps us better understand the complex emotional and practical realities individuals face after a brain haemorrhage — and explores how we can support them better, whether through research, prevention, or awareness initiatives.

    Stress and Blood Pressure: What’s the Deal?

    In this episode of the Prevent the Preventable podcast, we explore the connection between stress and high blood pressure — one of the leading causes of brain haemorrhages. Stress affects all of us, but how exactly does it impact our health, and what can we do to manage it before it causes serious harm? We’re joined by Dr. Rebecca Williams, who helps break down the science behind stress and blood pressure, what it means for our brain health, and practical strategies for managing stress in everyday life. In this episode, we cover: How stress triggers changes in the body that raise blood pressure Why chronic stress is such a modern health challenge Hidden ways stress affects our physical and mental wellbeing Who is most at risk, and why awareness is crucial Simple, practical strategies to manage stress and protect your health Remember every episode we share an exclusive question with our Change Collective, this week we asked Dr Rebecca Williams “For someone who experiences chronic anxiety or panic attacks, and knows it’s affecting their blood pressure and overall health, what practical steps or strategies can they take to manage it effectively? Are there evidence-based approaches that work alongside medical treatment?” -  to listen to her answer head over to our Instagram page and join our Change Collective. If you’ve ever wondered whether stress is just part of life or something that needs serious attention, this episode is packed with insights to help you recognise the risks and take proactive steps.

    Why We Need to Talk to Our Children About Blood Pressure

    In this important start-of-the-year episode of the Prevent the Preventable podcast, we turn our attention to a health issue that doesn’t always make the headlines, but should. High blood pressure. Often called the silent killer, high blood pressure rarely causes obvious symptoms, yet it’s one of the biggest risk factors for stroke and brain haemorrhage. What’s more, it’s increasingly becoming an issue not just for adults, but for children too, as rising obesity levels and lifestyle changes begin to affect younger generations. To help us unpack this critical conversation, we are joined by Dean Wallace consultant  paediatrician, who will help us unpack: What blood pressure really is, and why it matters to our brain health How high blood pressure quietly strains our blood vessels over time Why young, healthy people are not immune — and why so many go undiagnosed The rise in childhood hypertension, what it means for long-term health, and what families can do about it Simple lifestyle shifts and regular checks that can drastically reduce risk How the Natalie Kate Moss Trust is raising awareness and driving prevention This episode is designed to empower you with knowledge and practical steps — whether you’re looking after your own health, supporting a loved one, or thinking about the wellbeing of the next generation.

    Finding Purpose After Loss: How to navigate grief and turning Grief Into Action

    In this powerful and deeply personal episode of the Prevent the Preventable podcast, we pause to acknowledge National Grief Awareness Week and explore the realities of living with loss. Grief is complex, it is messy, and it looks different for everyone. There is no blueprint, no timeline, and no "right" way to move through it — yet it is something we so rarely talk about openly. At the Natalie Kate Moss Trust, we know first-hand the devastation that sudden loss, particularly from a brain haemorrhage, can bring. To help guide this important conversation, Fiona is joined by Grief Expert, Helen Arthur, who will share her expertise and compassion as we walk through five key steps many people experience as they learn to live with grief: Understanding Grief – what grief really is, the different types, and how it affects us emotionally, physically, and mentally. Acknowledging and Accepting the Grief – giving ourselves permission to grieve, without judgement or timeline. Navigating the Everyday Reality of Loss – making sense of the non-linear, messy, day-to-day experience of grief. Living With Grief – learning how to carry grief with us as we move forward in life. Turning Grief Into Action – finding meaning and purpose by honouring the person we’ve lost. This episode offers space for comfort, clarity, and connection. Whether you are currently grieving, supporting someone who is, or simply seeking a deeper understanding of grief, we hope this conversation brings you guidance and a sense of solidarity.

The opportunities and challenges that come with integrating AI into healthcare What the future could look like for AI in transforming treatment and recovery for patients This conversation opens up an exciting window into how technology might revolutionise healthcare – and why this could be a game-changer for brain haemorrhage survival and recovery.

    What happens in those first few hours after a brain haemorrhage? And why they are so critically important.

    In this episode, we ask, what happens in those first few hours after a brain haemorrhage? And why are they so critically important? We are joined by Chris Ashton, former paramedic, Ambulance Officer and lecturer on acute stroke management and rehabilitation. Chris has Co-chaired the national prehospital stroke group as a Specialist Paramedic for NHS England and has previously supported as an author for the update of the national Joint Royal Colleges Ambulance Liaison committee stroke guidelines and sits on many national panels including prehospital video triage and thrombectomy just to name a few.  In recent years Chris has supported the Sentinel Stroke National Audit Programme team as a national quality improvement facilitator with a strong focus on clinical ‘Pre-Hospital Care’ whilst also presenting some of his work at both the European Stroke conference and the UK stroke forum  conference.  Together, we explore: Why is time so important when it comes to getting a brain haemorrhage treated and what is the golden window? What are the 4 critical stages before a patient arrives at hospital with a potential brain haemorrhage? What are common issues delaying people getting to hospital? What are the opportunities to get people to hospital quicker?  What role does the public play in getting some treated quicker? This conversation helps us better understand what we can do to improve the chances of someone surviving a brain haemorrhage. Enjoying the podcast?
