Feel Better, Live More with Dr Rangan Chatterjee

Did you know that your daily habits directly affect the speed at which your brain is ageing and your risk of getting Alzheimer’s disease in the future?

 

This week, I'm delighted to welcome Dr Darshan Shah to the podcast. Darshan is a medical doctor, a board-certified surgeon, an expert in preventive health and the founder of Next Health, the first health optimisation and longevity centre to offer life-extending and enhancing technology and treatments.

 

Whilst working as a surgeon, Darshan became seriously ill with type diabetes, hypertension, an autoimmune condition, and he was told he had a 50% chance of dying in the next 25 years. This wake-up call came just as his first son was born. Rather than accepting a life dependent on medications, he immersed himself in functional medicine and completely reversed his conditions in just eight months. 

 

During our conversation, you'll discover: 

 The 5 things you could start doing today that would actually increase your chances of getting Alzheimer’s

 The 80/20 principle for health and how focusing on just 20% of interventions can deliver 80% of the results

 Why sitting for more than four hours increases your risk of death by 15%

 Why becoming the "boss of your own biology" through tracking key biomarkers could be life-saving

 How inflammation from your gut and mouth can directly impact your brain health decades later

 Darshan’s top supplement recommendations for longevity

This conversation challenges the notion that we can simply live intuitively in today's environment and expect to stay healthy. Darshan argues that in our current toxic world, taking an active role in monitoring and optimising our health isn't just beneficial, it's essential. 

Whether you're interested in detailed health tracking or just want to learn the basics of staying well, this conversation is packed with practical advice that could transform how you think about your health. I hope you enjoy listening.

BITESIZE | Mel Robbins: How to Reduce Overwhelm, Reclaim Your Energy and Feel More In Control of Life #572

Most of us spend our lives in conversation - yet very few of us are ever taught how to communicate well. Whether it’s with our partners, colleagues, family or friends, we often assume that being heard is the same as being understood. But true communication isn’t just about the words we use - it’s about the tone, timing and energy behind them.

This week’s guest believes that better communication can transform not only our relationships, but our health and happiness as well. 

Jefferson Fisher is a trial lawyer, a sought after public speaker and the author of the brand new book, The Next Conversation: Argue Less, Talk More.

In this conversation, we explore:

 Why good communication is about more than just words

 The three essential principles to better communication

 How to shift from reaction to reflection by making your first word your breath

 What it means to “control the moment”

 How to use the “I can tell…” framework to defuse tension 

 Why silence can be a superpower, when used correctly

 How ego, fear and unspoken emotion are often the real reason for arguments

This isn’t just an episode about talking. It’s about how to listen better, show up with more intention, and move from conflict to connection – one breath, one moment, one conversation at a time. I hope you enjoy listening.

BITESIZE | How to Reinvent Your Life This Summer: 5 Simple Habits That Really Work | Dr Rangan Chatterjee #570

Many of us are living with chronically dysregulated nervous systems, yet we mistake this reactive state for normal. Research suggests that our nervous system acts as a lens through which we experience reality. But when that lens is out of balance, we start to see threats where none exist – and respond in an exaggerated way to everyday situations.

Today’s guest believes that by learning to work with our body’s innate wisdom, we can transform not just how we respond to stress, but how we experience life itself.

Jonny Miller is the founder of Nervous System Mastery, a 5-week bootcamp where he has taught over a thousand students - from the CEO of a rocket-ship company and burned-out startup founders to busy parents and elite performers - how to cultivate calm, rewire reactivity and restore aliveness.

After experiencing profound grief following the loss of his fiancée Sophie, Jonny embarked on a journey to understand how our nervous system shapes every aspect of our lived experience. 

During this incredible conversation, we discuss:

 Why anxiety isn’t actually an emotion, but a protective strategy used by the nervous system to shield us from deeper underlying feelings, and the difference between managing emotions and truly feeling them

 The three core skills of nervous system mastery: interoception (tuning into our internal world), self-regulation and emotional fluidity, and why developing these can transform every part of our lives

 How emotions themselves typically last just 10 - 20 seconds, but our resistance to feeling them creates what Jonny calls “emotional debt,” which can keep us stuck for weeks, months or even years

 Why working with the body (a bottom-up approach) can be more effective than trying to ‘think’ our way out of stress, and how it differs from cognitive strategies like reframing

 How practices like cold exposure can help train us to stop resisting discomfort and allow challenging sensations to move through us naturally

Jonny’s reflections on grief are particularly moving. He shares how losing Sophie taught him that emotions – even the most painful ones – carry their own kind of wisdom.

At its heart, this episode is about remembering what the body already knows. Jonny shows us that beneath our stress and reactivity lies a deep intelligence, and that when we learn to trust it, we can move through life with more presence, resilience and peace. I hope you enjoy listening.

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

BITESIZE | 3 Simple Tips For Pain-Free Running (and Walking!) | Helen Hall #568

When life doesn’t unfold the way we hoped, it can be tempting to see that as failure. But what if it was those moments that actually shape us the most?

This week, I’m delighted to welcome Eliud Kipchoge back to the show for a second incredible conversation - recorded just days after he completed the 2025 London Marathon. Eliud is a Kenyan athlete who is widely regarded as the greatest marathon runner of all time. He has won two successive Olympic marathons and 10 major titles. And of course, he’s the only athlete to have ever run a marathon in under two hours, which he did back in 2019 in Vienna as part of the 1:59 challenge.

But as you’ll hear in this conversation, his wisdom goes far beyond running as Eliud shares the life lessons that have shaped his journey - not just as an athlete, but as a human being. 

You’ll also hear:

 Why Eliud believes discipline is what creates freedom - and how keeping promises to yourself builds the self-trust needed to face life’s hardest moments

 Why failure is not the opposite of success, but, instead, the soil where wisdom grows

 How running has become a metaphor for life - with its highs, lows, unexpected challenges and the need to keep moving forward

 How Eliud not being able to finish his last Olympic marathon taught him more than any victory ever could

 The true power of community, humility, and purpose - and why Eliud still cleans toilets at his training camp despite being a global icon

 How planning, consistency and positive thinking guide his life - and why he believes ego is something we must all learn to let go of

Throughout our conversation, Eliud speaks with warmth, humility and compassion. He challenges the idea that goals alone define success - reminding us that it’s the process, the discipline and the way we show up every day that truly counts.

Whether you’re a runner or not, this episode is an invitation to reflect on your own mindset, your values, and your relationship with setbacks. Eliud shows us that progress isn’t always linear - and that real growth often happens in the moments we never planned for. 

I hope you enjoy listening.

Letting Go of Perfection: The Power of Process, Presence & Planning with Eliud Kipchoge #567

How can we create new habits – and stick to them? Is it really a case of will
power, motivation, then repetition? Or could there be a simpler approach?

 

Feel Better Live More Bitesize is my weekly podcast for your mind, body, and heart. Each week I’ll be featuring inspirational stories and practical tips from some of my former guests.

 

Today’s clip is from episode 452 of the podcast with Harvard Professor, and a leading behavioral scientist, Michael Norton.

 

We can all make short-term changes, but so many of us struggle to make our new desired behaviours last. In this clip we explore the difference between rituals and routines, and Michael shares why turning our desired habits into rituals can be really helpful in making them stick for the long term.

BITESIZE | The Surprising Secret to Making New Habits Stick | Professor Michael Norton #566

Many of us are so busy keeping up with life, that we forget to check in with ourselves. We follow the rules, meet expectations and strive for success – yet still feel disconnected, stuck or unfulfilled. True purpose can feel elusive, like something we’re always searching for but never quite finding. 

 

This week, I’m joined by Kirsty Gallagher to explore how reconnecting with who you truly are can lead to a life of greater meaning, alignment, and joy. Kirsty is a renowned meditation and yoga teacher, a spiritual coach, and Sunday Times bestselling author of several books - including her latest, Your Cosmic Purpose. 

 

In our conversation, we discuss:

 Why your true purpose is to be yourself, not to chase status, success or approval 

 How to start listening to your own truth, even if you’ve spent a lifetime tuning in to everyone else’s 

 Why spending time in stillness is so important 

 The role of discomfort and “internal conflict” as signs you’re out of alignment 

 Why trusting the timing of your life is essential and how your most painful
experiences may be guiding you to greater clarity and purpose 

 The importance of celebrating your progress 

 How to reclaim your power by learning to make conscious, intentional choices - even when you are unable to change your external circumstances 

 

Throughout this conversation, Kirsty shares stories from her own journey, from corporate burnout to spiritual awakening, and offers practical tools to help you reconnect with the part of you that already knows the way. 

 

This conversation may feel a little different from others I have had on this podcast. It leans more into the emotional and spiritual aspects of health and healing, but if you listen with an open heart and mind, I truly believe there is something in it for everyone. 

 

At its core, it’s a powerful reminder that you are the expert of your own life. Your truth matters. Your voice matters. And your purpose, however small or quiet it may seem right now, is already within you.
