    58. Listeners on the mic! - Laura's Story
    Feb 15 2021


    During this episode I chat to Laura Shah, a BEAT ambassador who shares her experiences. Laura struggled with anorexia and had an suicide attempt at a young age which was then followed by the suicide of her mothers partner the next day. She shares how she navigated the chaos at that point, how her eating disorder was her only way of controlling it and how it impacted her late teens and early 20s.

    Laura talks about the impact of someone stepping up and helping her and accepting that help as well as her experience of therapy as an adolescent and an adult.

    She shares her greatest realisation and a bit about the work she does with BEAT - her dog Jess also makes her debut podcast appearance when she crashes our interview.

    I really loved speaking to Laura and the way that she is so open, honest and real. It’s been such a pleasure to have her on the podcast and I can’t wait to see what she does next. Thank you Laura

    57. Recovery IS Possible with Dr Omara Naseem
    Dec 21 2020
    This week I chat to Dr Omara Naseem, Psychologist & Eating Disorder SpecialistWe talk about what an eating disorder looks like and how they’re diagnosed. We also discuss the BBC Documentary that you may recognise Omara from Freddie Flintoff: Living with Bulimia, my reaction to it as someone who lived with bulimia for a long time, Omara’s thoughts on it as well as why this programme was so important despite some of the backlash online.We also talk about the prevalence of disordered eating in wider society including in the fitness industry where “cheat days” and fasting are encouraged in men and women. The barriers to seeking help for those from ethnic minorities as well as some of the recent inquests into the services and why it is something to be welcomed as it will help the NHS to get more investment into eating disorder services.Over the last year we’ve all had to adapt in many ways and treatment has also had to do so too In order to keep up with the demand that covid has put on us; feelings of food scarcity, pressures and relapsing due to lack of control and emotional upheaval. We talk about what you can do if you’re concerned about your own mental health or eating patterns and how you can support others who you are starting to worry about. You can find Dr Omara on Instagram @dr_omara_naseem https://www.instagram.com/dr_omara_naseem/and via her website https://omaranaseem.comThe BBC Documentary we discussed; Freddie Flintoff: Living with Bulimia is still available on the iPlayer:https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000n1xxDon't forget to subscribe to TRIBE TALK to get the latest episodes.

    56. Listeners On The Mic! - Charlie's Story
    Nov 30 2020

    This week kicks off the first episode of TRIBE TALK featuring one of you! The listeners! If this is brand new information for you then this season I’m opening up the conversation to people who may not have a big following but who have a story to share. Over the last 9 months it has become more and more obvious that for us to thrive and live a fulfilled life we need to connect. So my aim with this is for people from all walks of life to come on, have a chat with me and share their experiences of struggle, adversity and the moments that made them. When we listen to these stories something incredible happens: we feel seen, we feel understood and we can find a sense of hope and strength that no matter what we are going through we aren’t alone. 


    If you’re listening to this and feel like there’s a part of you that wants to come on and have a chat with me for the podcast just pop me a DM on Instagram @emjandrew or @tribetalkpodcast or email me at hello@healthybalancewithemily.com 


    This week I am so happy to bring Charlie on the podcast. Charlie is an incredible 21 year old who has faced many challenges throughout his life and shares them through his writing for Arthur’s place. Arthur’s Place is an online magazine and social network for young adults with arthritis. I’ll add some links in the show notes if you want to find out more and read Charlie’s articles. We chat about living with a chronic illness and the Charlie shares how he has found that others have had more understanding of people in his situation due to the Coronavirus pandemic and the subsequent lockdowns. He shares the best advice he's received as well as the things that helps him when he's having a difficult day.


    I'm so looking forward to bringing more stories like this to the podcast!
