Bowel Cancer Awareness month 💜

Welcome to Wellness Week

“Unusual clues, actual clues” – that’s your cue.

4 years cancer-free this month, so this one hits personally.

Have you noticed changes in your poo or bowel habits? If something doesn’t feel normal for you, don’t ignore it—speak to your doctor.

In most cases, it won’t be cancer. But if it is, spotting it early can save your life.

Take a moment to learn the symptoms. It could make all the difference.

If you’d like to support those affected, please consider donating to the Bowelbabe Fund via https://www.bowelbabe.org/⁠ in memory of the late Dame Deborah James.💜

Your donations help fund vital bowel cancer research and support for people affected by cancer.

𝗖𝗘𝗟𝗘𝗕𝗥𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗡𝗚 𝟭𝟬 𝗬𝗘𝗔𝗥𝗦 𝗜𝗡 𝗕𝗨𝗦𝗜𝗡𝗘𝗦𝗦 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗔 𝗖𝗢𝗡𝗩𝗘𝗥𝗦𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 𝗪𝗜𝗧𝗛 𝗙𝗥𝗜𝗘𝗡𝗗𝗦! 🥂🎙️✨

I recently had the absolute joy of stepping into the studio at Suffolk Sound for a full hour of conversation on the Sugar and Spice show. With one half of the duo away, and the team decided I was the perfect addition to make it: 𝙎𝙪𝙜𝙖𝙧 & 𝙎𝙥𝙞𝙘𝙚, 𝙖𝙣𝙙 𝙬𝙖𝙞𝙩 𝙛𝙤𝙧 𝙞𝙩... "𝘼𝙡𝙡 𝙏𝙝𝙞𝙣𝙜𝙨 𝙉𝙞𝙘𝙚!" 🍬✨😆

It was the most wonderful way to mark our 𝟭𝟬 𝘆𝗲𝗮𝗿 𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗶𝗻𝗲𝘀𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗻𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝗿𝘆. Instead of just a formal announcement, we had a real ‘𝑪𝒐𝒏𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒔𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏 𝒘𝒊𝒕𝒉 𝑭𝒓𝒊𝒆𝒏𝒅𝒔.’

We covered it all:
📖 The stories and heart behind my business and my book
💪🏾 Raising awareness for the health issues I’m so passionate about
🎂 Reflecting on a decade of this incredible journey

We shared a personal moment when Angelina asked "what it’s like to be my friend", I actually burst into singing with the theme song from The Golden Girls "Thank you for being a friend" right there on air! (And yes, she played the song! 🎶)

If you want to hear the laughter, the songs, and the stories behind the last 10 years, tune in to the catch-up here—Listen to the full 𝙏𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙙𝙖𝙮 7𝙩𝙝 𝘼𝙥𝙧𝙞𝙡 𝙖𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙤𝙤𝙣 𝙨𝙝𝙤𝙬 on Suffolk Sounds (with adverts): 👇🏾

A huge thank you to and Rob Dunger at Suffolk Sounds for the warm welcome and making me feel a part of the team. Looking forward to the next one.

Healthy Brunch 💚✨

How do you start your day?

Have you thought about trying a vibrant, nourishing brunch that literally is ready in minutes? 👀 ⏱️

Today I prepare some fresh green salad 🥗, juicy tomatoes 🍅, paprika-dusted boiled eggs 🌶️, along with a plant-based sausage 🌱

I topped this with a homemade creamy avocado dressing 🥑 — made with fresh spring onion, cucumber 🥒, lemon juice 🍋, olive oil and plant-based mayo. It had a little kick, with a smooth, zesty flavour

Would you try this?

If you want the dressing recipe, comment “AVOCADO” below 🥑👇🏽
