40ish - Fibre, Friendship Fallouts & Where Are We With Facebook?

Today we are bringing you an episode from our other podcast 40ish (don't say we don't spoil you) Please enjoy this episode. This week on 40ish, Nicole reports from the glamorous world of post-surgery recovery where the main event of the day is… taking painkillers. Timing them, thinking about them, planning the next one. Meanwhile, Lauren has a mysterious foot situation developing. There is very validating listener feedback about the extremely serious issue of designated mugs. We also tackle this week’s dilemma where a woman is left wondering if some friendships can recover after youve been seriously let down. Plus we share some midlife meltdowns, including an existential crisis in the cereal aisle and a listener asking the question many of us are secretly thinking: what exactly is the point of Facebook now? Expect rants, honesty and the comforting reminder that midlife is mostly just trying to take the right painkiller at the right time while drinking out of the correct mug.

Wuthering Heights and The World's Saddest Sandwich

Today we are bringing you an episode from our other podcast 40ish (don't say we don't spoil you) Please enjoy this episode. On 40ish: Lauren reports back from the cinematic gothic f***fest where the wind was wild, the passion was feral, and one drenched Jacob Elordi on horseback has single-handedly reset her standards and her blood pressure. Frankly, she hasn’t been the same since. For God’s sake, someone hide the linen shirts and put her in a cold shower. Meanwhile, Nicole’s quest for a dignified lunch ends in sadness at the hands of the bleakest tuna sandwich ever assembled. Was it food? Was it a cry for help? Either way, John Lewis may need to answer for its crimes. The Place To Eat? More like ‘The Place To Die’ Plus, a listener deals with an infuriating workplace body-shaming moment, and the Valentine’s Day reports are in. Memo to all men: Don’t buy shit flowers. It’s bodice ripping, sandwich flinging, flower judging chaos. Enjoy!  Get in touch!

Hearing, Dementia & The Cotton Bud Myth — with Mr Joseph Manjaly

This episode is sponsored by Welbeck - providing beyond better healthcare.  In honour of World Hearing Day on March 3rd, we’re talking about something most of us take completely for granted… until we can’t hear the waiter, the TV suddenly “too quiet,” and everyone starts mumbling. This week, we’re joined by leading ear surgeon Joseph Manjaly, Consultant Otologist & Auditory Implant Surgeon at OneWelbeck ENT and Clinical Lead at Royal National ENT and UCLH, who spends his days quite literally changing how people experience the world. We get into the surprising truth about hearing loss — including why it’s not just an “old person thing,” how midlife hearing loss is now the biggest modifiable risk factor for dementia, and the everyday habits that could be quietly damaging your ears. Joe explains: Why hearing loss happens (and why it’s not always about ageing) The link between hearing loss, brain health and dementia Tinnitus — what that ringing actually is, and what you can do about it The biggest myths about hearing (yes, we’re looking at you, cotton buds) The incredible technology already restoring hearing — and what’s coming next Plus, we talk about the emotional side of hearing loss; from isolation and confidence to the life-changing moment when someone hears clearly again. Because hearing isn’t just about sound it’s about connection, memory, and staying engaged with the people you love. And after this episode, you may never put a cotton bud anywhere near your ear again!  Join Our Private Facebook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1115099072702743/?ref=share_group_link Instagram  https://www.instagram.com/selfcareclubpod/ YouTube https://youtube.com/c/SelfCareClub TikTok https://vm.tiktok.com/ZMLnXyS1S/ Email hello@theselfcareclub.co.uk  Website www.theselfcareclub.co.uk Studio production by @launchpodstudios Music by purpleplanet.
