We're living through a global pandemic of chronic illness.

Heart disease, diabetes, cancer, obesity have increased dramatically over the last 40 years. According to Dr Greg Fitzgerald, the problem is that too many of keep buying 'chronic illness lottery tickets' through our lifestyle choices.

The over-consumption of hyper-processed foods, lack of movement, poor sleep and chemicalisation, have combined to create a costly problem.

But the good news is that we can turn this ship around. In this discussion, Dr Greg looks back at some of the learnings and insights from his 40 years as an Allied Health Practitioner.

Discover:

• What are the core elements of Lifestyle Medicine?

• What are the proper conditions for health?

• Why we should not “solider on” when sick (as per the 1980s advert: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cD_rIQ6eu3A)

• Where to start if you want to transform your health

Have you or anyone you know suffered from miscarriage?

This devastating loss occurs in approximately 1 out of every 4 pregnancies, so it’s much more common than you might think.

Samantha Payne, Founder & CEO of charity Pink Elephants Support Network takes us through her own experiences of multiple miscarriages in the Australian healthcare system and how she courageously set up the Pink Elephant Support Network to help families receive the care and emotional support that she wished she had received when she needed it.

How can you ensure that you treat your employees fairly and without inadvertently discriminating against them?

People live through all kinds of life events whilst working and each has a minefield of implications and legislation behind them. On top of that, not all managers have the people skills to be able to give staff a consistent response that reflects the culture of the organisation they are representing.

Rebecca Grainger shares her experience of discrimination at her place of work and how that motivated her to build Triiyo, to give employers the tools they need to support their employees across their whole lives, consistently.

In this podcast, you will learn:

• How to make your staff feel valued and supported

• How to support people through all kinds of life events

• How to help remote workers still feel part of the team

Men have historically had to be tough. The breadwinner. The rock. The strong one.

But that has come at a massive price, where men are unable to be able to show vulnerability or have any outlet for expressing the multitude of feelings that they feel. As a consequence, men are 3.5 x more likely to commit suicide than women. Fortunately, times are changing and men are starting to be able to fully be themselves.

This important interview with David Pointon tells a fascinating story of how he joined a group of men in order to have a safe space to share the things that are happening in their lives, and how that is now growing into a national movement, with groups all around Australia.

You will learn:

• Some of the reasons why the suicide rates in men are so high

• Some positive things that men can do to be able to find emotional support

• How a Men’s Table works, and some of the ground rules

• How people can set up their own local table

Men have historically had to be tough. The breadwinner. The rock. The strong one. But that has come at a massive price, where men are unable to be able to show vulnerability or have any outlet for expressing the multitude of feelings that they feel.

As a consequence, men are 3.5 x more likely to commit suicide than women. Fortunately, times are changing and men are starting to be able to fully be themselves.

This interview with David Pointon tells a fascinating story of how he joined a group of men in order to have a safe space to share the things that are happening in their lives, and how that is now growing into a national movement, with groups all around Australia.

You will learn:

• Some of the reasons why the suicide rates in men are so high

• Some positive things that men can do to be able to find emotional support

• How a Men’s Table works, and some of the ground rules

• How people can set up their own local table
