In my kitchen this week, I’m joined by Emily Johnson — best-selling author of two cookbooks focused on living and thriving with arthritis.Emily first experienced arthritis symptoms at just four years old and was officially diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at twenty. Since then, she’s completely transformed her diet and lifestyle to focus on anti-inflammatory living — a change that not only improved her own health but has inspired thousands through her social media and bestselling books.When she was first diagnosed, Emily felt isolated and ashamed, having never heard of anyone her age going through something similar. But through sharing her story, she’s built an incredible community and a safe space for others navigating the same challenges.In this episode, we talk about how diet, lifestyle shifts, and stress management can make a huge difference in how you feel — and how small, mindful changes can have a powerful impact on managing arthritis symptoms.In this episode we discuss:Emily's Arthritis diagnosisWhat triggers her and the lifestyle choices that make a differenceWhat living with Arthritis looks likeTechniques and practices Emily uses to manage her symptomsDietary choicesGiving up alcoholOther wellness practices that make a difference The one thing that made a huge difference Sponsors:CALO - We are sponsored by CALO a food delivery service which provides nutritionist-approved, chef-made meals, delivered fresh, daily.

Daisy shares the original problem she was trying to solve, the early experiments that shaped the brand, and the small wins that slowly gathered momentum.Glow For It embraced TikTok from day one, documenting the journey, packing orders in real time, and educating a growing community with beauty tips and tricks. That early openness turned TikTok Shop into a launchpad for viral moments, daily lives and a fiercely loyal audience, eventually carrying the brand onto the shelves at Boots.As well as discussing the business journey, Daisy opens up about balancing her wellbeing while steering a fast-growing company, the pressures that come with visibility, and the habits that keep her centred when everything around her is accelerating.

Together, we share our very real personal journeys with constipation, the silent struggle so many of us face but rarely talk about — and explore why women are disproportionately affected by gut issues compared to men.Holly and Joely share how their experiences led to the creation of We Are Regular, and how they’re breaking the stigma around poo talk by bringing humour, honesty, and science into the conversation.

In my kitchen this week, I am joined by Sarah Vachon founder of Citizens of Soil, a brand that’s redefining what olive oil can—and should—be. More than just a kitchen staple, their extra virgin olive oil is rooted in a mission: to elevate farmers, protect the land, and bring us closer to the story behind what we eat.We talk about the nutritional power of olive oil and why we should all be cooking with olive oil rather than any other fat source, but also dive deeper into the systemic issues in the industry—how farmers are often underpaid and their oils lost in anonymous blends. Citizens of Soil challenges this model by paying producers fairly and directly, supporting regenerative farming methods that nurture biodiversity and preserve soil health.This is olive oil as a community movement, where every bottle connects you not only to a beautiful ingredient, but also to the people and ecosystems that make it possible.Topics we discuss are:The health benefits of consuming good quality olive oil - why is olive oil better than a low cal spray?What does extra virgin olive oil mean?When some is looking at buying olive oil in a supermarket what should they be aware of?What is single origin?Cooking with olive oil - should we be aware of the heating temperature - is there a limit You’ve turned an every day commodity into a brand and a delicious and desirable product - how has that journey been?What’s different about Citizens of soil?Working closely with the producers and what that looks like Sponsors:One Zone - The app that will change your London lifestyle, giving you all the recommendations you need for the best food and drink experiences in the cityDownload here Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20click hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week in the kitchen, I’m joined by Matt McEntegart, founder of ROAM—a high-protein meat bar created to fill the gap between wanting a natural, wholefood snack and one that also delivers on macros, protein, and quality without artificial ingredients or added sugar. ROAM is built on the belief that the foundation of a healthy diet lies in meat, dairy, fruit, and vegetables—a refreshing perspective in today’s world of ultra-processed foods.In this episode, Matt and I explore the role of meat in the diet, which made for a fascinating conversation given that I currently don’t eat meat myself. While we come at the topic from different perspectives, we both strongly agree on the importance of a wholefood-based diet, as well as the value of eating seasonally and locally whenever possible.Beyond meat, our discussion also touches on the rising interest in the ancestral diet, the common misconceptions around whey protein, and whether buying organic food is truly worth it or just hype. Packed with nutritional insights and a few thought-provoking (and at times controversial) conversations, this episode is one you won’t want to miss.Topics covered:Your journey to RoamFrustrations with the snack market Whey ProteinEating too much meatHigh cholesterolAncestral dietThe value of fibre in your dietA wholefood dietDairyInvesting in buying organiconezone - The app that will change your London lifestyle, giving you all the recommendations you need for the best food and drink experiences in the cityDownload here Healthy Habits - Try mouth tape today and get 20% off your first purchase with code CATCHUPS20click hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.

This week in my kitchen, I’m joined by Suzy Peach, GP and Co-Founder of Peach Wellness Academy (PWA)—a health and wellness curriculum designed to bridge the gap in wellness education for children, though it’s accessible to all ages.Suzy shares insights from her medical practice, where she noticed a worrying trend: while access to information about health has never been easier, the quality of that information has declined. Despite being more “educated” than ever, many of us are misinformed, self-diagnosing, and relying on inaccurate sources.Peach Wellness Academy focuses on all aspects of wellness, with a particular emphasis on sexual health and mental health—two areas that are often misunderstood yet widely discussed. The curriculum is designed to complement school learning, not replace it, while also equipping parents with tools to answer the questions of today’s curious minds.In an age where social media can be both a platform for knowledge and a breeding ground for misinformation, Suzy explains how her experiences as a GP inspired her to create a curriculum that helps children and families navigate health and wellbeing more confidently.Topics we discuss:What is wrong with health and wellness education amongst children at the moment?What is peach wellness academy The fundamental problems that girls are experiencing now as a result of lack of education from schools Female Health - we don’t know enough - why?Mental Health and the self-diagnosing crisesModern day health and wellness - what we need to know has changed TikTok being a source of information Vaping - the damage that is having on young children To visit Peach Wellness Academy - click hereThis episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.

In this episode, I sit down with April to explore how to approach a reset in a way that’s both effective and sustainable. We discuss the key areas to focus on for supporting your liver and gut health, and the small but powerful lifestyle changes that can make the biggest difference.In this episode we discuss: For those looking to reset and get back into a good routine after summer what are some of the principles you would recommend?Why is resetting your body a good thing to do Which foods help with Liver Detoxification The benefits of having a 4 hour break in between each meal Thoughts on juice cleansesThoughts on fasting?What are some of the health food staples that you think people should have in their cupboard and fridge in order to make healthier choices in their diet Creatine - ARTAH have just brought out their creatine - thoughts?This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!April's Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.

In my kitchen this week, I’m sharing a highly requested solo episode all about business — specifically the lessons I’ve learned from starting my very first venture, Greedy Vegan, and how those experiences have shaped my approach to building my second business, Healthy Habits.Starting a business is never a straight line — it’s a journey filled with challenges, reflections, and plenty of learnings. Closing one business and beginning again with another has shifted my perspective in so many ways, and in this episode, I’m opening up about the key takeaways that continue to guide me.For a bit of background — Greedy Vegan was a nationwide UK delivery service where I curated plant-based products, from brie to salmon alternatives and everything in between.Now, with Healthy Habits, I’ve stepped into the wellness space, reimagining functional products with an aesthetic twist — starting with our very first launch: mouth tape.In this episode I discuss the following:Removing the personality from the business Treating your business at the age that it is and not comparing yourself to businesses that have been going a lot longer Setting up your business for the lifestyle that you want to live Setting up your business for success - make sure it is sustainable and scalableNot saying yes to everything Taking the ego out of the business Remember your why as a business and have your goal crystal clear in your head The power of doing one thing really wellThe benefits of mouth tapeWhy Mouth Tape was my first product This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!Healthy Habits Instagram - click here!Healthy Habits website - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.

We explore the power of plants, nutrition, and the incredible benefits of eating more whole, natural foods. With so much conflicting diet advice online — from plant-based eating to the carnivore diet — it’s easy to feel confused about what’s “right.” But whatever your dietary choices, adding more plants and legumes into your meals can bring huge health benefits, and this episode highlights exactly why.Sophie and I also talk about the importance of strength training — not just for physical health, strength, and longevity, but also for building confidence, resilience, and a strong mindset.If you’re interested in plant-based nutrition, healthy habits, or finding balance in your wellness routine, this episode is full of insights and practical takeaways that you’ll love.Topics we discussed:Why are you vegan?Why is fibre just as important as protein How can people add more fibre into their dietThe ancestral diet is promoting a lack of fibre How much protein should we be having Your favourite plant-based proteinsThe benefits of eating plant proteinsThe plant-based trend and people's perception of plant-based now The gym and strength training Body re-composition and confidenceCreatineCounting calories This episode was hosted and produced by Georgia SymondsCheckout Sophie Waplington - click hereGeorgia’s Instagram - click here!For more information and other interesting articles check out our website: www.catchupsinmykitchen.com  Hosted on Acast.
