Addressing our use of Social Media
2026/10/22
There’s always discussion and always debate on social media – but perhaps we need to accept that we WILL use it, it HAS a place, however if what we are then consuming is affecting us, there are some aspects of it which we might need to cut down on.  Nina Hobson of Barefoot Coaching joins us to address the nuances of the topic.   About the Show Each Thursday at 4pm, we broadcast on LinkedIn and YouTube, with the podcast released on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more.  Wherever you listen, you’re invited to pause, reflect, and reconnect:  PODCAST: https://mentalhealthmatters.buzzsprout.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5dbYRwciNQ3c2hZwpsfxnNIvpijH4S2b    Today's show is hosted by Dr Audrey Tang www.draudreyt.com  @draudreyt and Judith Crosier https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556005102240   Guest Expert Nina Hobson https://www.linkedin.com/in/ninahobson/ https://barefootcoaching.co.uk/blog/supporting-high-potential-women-at-work-5-lessons-from-leadership-coaching/
Wellbeing for Entrepreneurs
2026/10/15
One area of workplace wellbeing that is not spoken about enough is those running micro-businesses or starting out as freelancer and entrepreneurs.  When you have an organisational structure with policies and interventions, wellbeing is (theoretically) easier to maintain, but what about that person who IS the business…who can’t say no because they are just starting out…who can’t afford a team and are juggling all plates themselves?  This is a really insightful conversation with Stress Consultant (and entrepreneur) Felicia Jones with actionable tools for wellness.   About the Show Each Thursday at 4pm, we broadcast on LinkedIn and YouTube, with the podcast released on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more.  Wherever you listen, you’re invited to pause, reflect, and reconnect:  PODCAST: https://mentalhealthmatters.buzzsprout.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5dbYRwciNQ3c2hZwpsfxnNIvpijH4S2b    Today's show is hosted by Dr Audrey Tang www.draudreyt.com  @draudreyt and Judith Crosier https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556005102240   Guest Expert Felicia Jones Founder: https://www.stresslessliving.co.uk/
Unpacking the expectations placed on women
2026/10/08
While originally planned as a show exploring the social media concept of the “trad wife” – the conversation with fabulous Stress Consultant Felicia Jones (a Mental Health Matters regular) moved to looking at the many (and often unhelpful) messages that women receive consciously or unconsciously about who they “should be” and how they “should behave”…and importantly, how to say “NO MORE” – and celebrate one’s own authenticity!   About the Show Each Thursday at 4pm, we broadcast on LinkedIn and YouTube, with the podcast released on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and more.  Wherever you listen, you’re invited to pause, reflect, and reconnect:  PODCAST: https://mentalhealthmatters.buzzsprout.com YOUTUBE: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL5dbYRwciNQ3c2hZwpsfxnNIvpijH4S2b    Today's show is hosted by Dr Audrey Tang www.draudreyt.com  @draudreyt and Judith Crosier https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61556005102240   Guest Expert Felicia Jones Founder: https://www.stresslessliving.co.uk/
