I’m really pleased to say that I’ll be speaking at Rail Wellbeing Live 2026, the rail industry’s biggest health and wellbeing event.

It’s a great line-up this year, including Joe Marler, Frank Bruno MBE, Giovanna Fletcher and Dr Nighat Arif and I’m delighted to be contributing alongside them.

My session will look at how we stay emotionally connected in a world shaped by technology, the impact of AI on therapy and wellbeing, and the practical things that help us feel more grounded, supported and connected to each other in daily life.

I'll also record my talk for my YouTube channel in the New Year and let you know when it's up!

Clip from my YT video on how Disney's live action remake of Snow White shows us the whole journey to overcoming narcissism. Narcissism isn’t something that can be killed in someone, but instead needs to be understood and related to. Instead of fighting any part of ourselves, we can embrace it, explore it's origins, and find a healthier alternative, just like Snow White's journey in this film!

Acknowledging that being different is really our superpower is just one of the insights from my recent conversation with Kati Morton, one of the world’s best-known therapist–creators.

With nearly 1.5 million YouTube subscribers, bestselling books, and a hugely popular podcast, she’s built an extraordinary platform while staying authentic and grounded.

In our chat we explore:

– How Kati’s career as a therapist shaped her content and community

– Her journey from initial reluctance to reaching a global audience

– Why authenticity matters more than chasing algorithms

– Balancing audience needs with personal interests

– Her latest projects, including her soon to be published book 'Why do I keep doing this?'

– Plus her favourite piece of life advice!

See the full conversation on my YT channel, link to the channel in my bio. It was great to speak to her, I really hope you enjoy it and, as ever, do let me know what you think!

🌟 I’m delighted to share that over the next month I’ll be joined on my YouTube channel by some extraordinary guests whose work and voices have reached audiences around the world:

**Andre Lazarus** (top left) — a 'surrogate partner therapist' on UK Channel 4 TV’s controversial show 'Virgin Island', we'll be talking about his approach to s*x, love, intimacy and relationships, as well as what it's like to be a 'TV therapist' on a reality show like Virgin Island.

**Kati Morton** (btm left) — licensed therapist, bestselling author of 'Are U Ok?', and one of the most recognisable therapists online, with almost one and a half million YouTube subscribers and over 150 million views of her videos. Her content has been translated into multiple languages, and she’s been featured by outlets from the BBC to BuzzFeed. She'll be talking all about her career journey to date, including her hugely successful YouTube channel and her soon to be published new book 'Why Do I Keep Doing This? Unlearning the Habits Keeping You Stuck & Unhappy'.

**Robyn Ochs** (top right) — internationally respected bis*xual+ advocate, speaker and writer will be talking about her exceptional career and being bi+ generally. Robyn edits 'Bi Women Quarterly', co-edited the ground-breaking anthology 'Getting Bi', and has spoken in over 40 countries. Her widely cited definition of bis*xuality is the definition currently most commonly used around the world and has shaped global conversations about identity.

**Dr Ron Siegel** (btm right)— Assistant Professor of Psychology at Harvard Medical School, with over 35 years’ clinical experience. He is the author of 'The Mindfulness Solution' and 'The Extraordinary Gift of Being Ordinary, and lectures internationally on mindfulness, psychotherapy and wellbeing. We're going to be talking all about narcissism and particularly 'grandiose' narcissism, including how to overcome it and how to work with it as a therapist.

Each of them has made a real difference in their fields and I'm so pleased to be in conversation with them.

The recordings of the first 3 above have yet to take place by the way, so if there's anything you'd like me to ask any of them, do let me know!
