We talk to Dr Alka Patel about how we can live not only longer, but healthier and more fulfilling lives (because who wants one without the other!). We discuss the importance of a personalised approach to health, but also things that we can all incorporate into our everyday to boost our bodies and our minds.

Dr Alka worked for decades as a GP and now 25 years on she works with the latest innovations in health to enable people to make decisions about their lifestyle and self-care choices.

She challenges Gwen and Kate to complete her five time-based biohacks everyday for a week and see how they feel. Join us and let us know how you get on!

In this cute mini-me-pisode, Kate's been to a food coach and has a handy little top tip for stopping eating for non-hunger reasons – H.A.L.T.! Gwen & Kate discuss how this can be used for a wide range of situations, and how having a handy list of things to make you feel good – like talking to a friend, getting fresh air, walking around the block, or journalling – can stop you doing the thing you'll regret. We reveal an easy journalling exercise and Kate relives looking back at her old journals.

Plus hear listener shoutouts and who's been trying out ChatGPT for themselves.
