Today we're joined by Katie Harrison from Picture News, an organisation that's been working closely with schools for years to help children engage with the world around them in a thoughtful, age-appropriate way.

In this episode, we're diving into something so many parents are thinking about right now — children's mental health, and the role movement can play in supporting it. We'll be talking about what's really going on for children today, what schools are seeing on the ground, and why initiatives like The Big School Workout, taking place this Mental Health Awareness Week on 14th May, in partnership with Joe Wicks, are more important than ever.

Travelling with children can feel overwhelming. From packing and planning to keeping little ones entertained on long journeys. But according to family travel expert Jen Carr, it doesn't have to be stressful or expensive.

Through her website and community, she has helped thousands of parents feel more confident about taking trips with their kids, from newborns to school age.

Now, with the launch of her new book Yes, You Can Travel With Kids, Jen is on a mission to show parents that family travel really can be enjoyable — even with babies, toddlers and unpredictable schedules.

In this interview, Jen shares her own experiences of travelling with children, the biggest fears parents have about family holidays, the money mistakes many families make when booking trips, and the simple mindset shifts that can make travelling with kids feel far more relaxed.

There's no shortage of advice telling women how they should look, eat or exercise — and it's no wonder so many of us feel overwhelmed, confused or stuck when it comes to our bodies. In this episode, we're joined by Emma Simarro, Women's Health Coach and founder of Building Body Confidence, to cut through the noise and talk about what actually helps women feel strong, confident and well, especially through midlife.

Emma's work focuses on moving women away from restrictive diets and over-exercise, and towards strength, sustainable habits and long-term health. Drawing on her experience supporting women at every stage of life, she shares honest, practical advice on body confidence, strength training, nutrition, hormones and the mindset shifts that make lasting change possible.

This is a reassuring, down-to-earth conversation for anyone who's tired of fitness fads, frustrated by conflicting advice, or unsure where to begin — and a reminder that feeling good in your body doesn't have to be complicated or punishing.
