What is Wellness? Wellness is not merely the absence of illness; it is a state of complete physical, mental, emotional and spiritual well-being. It is Wholeness. After being diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis aged 2, I was wheelchair-bound and head-to-toe disabled by 18. After more than a decade of intensive self-study, learning everything I could about what makes the human body & mind work and not work, I reconditioned myself back to wellness, but only after learning that I couldn’t just heal my body, I had to also heal the emotional, mental and spiritual aspects of self too. If you want to heal one part of you, you have to heal the whole self. Based on this long and expansive journey, I created Reconditioned as a hub to integrate all modalities and learnings within the world of well-being in one place, and as a result, here is where you will find information on everything from nutrition and epigenetics, to conscious parenting, trauma, neuroplasticity, inner child healing, conscious relationships, intentional entrepreneurship, meditation, manifestation, spirituality and more. Whether you are suffering from chronic illness, raising children in a world of conflicting information, you‘re an entrepreneur wanting to step into your purpose or you simply want to feel empowered and motivated to become the best version of yourself, tune in as I work to uncover the most actionable ways to recondition ourselves back to wellness.

100 episodes in, starting with me teaching myself how to use GarageBand and buying some basic equipment and bringing in a co-host, while I had a tiny baby and toddler (and no sleep!), to end up in the top 1% of all podcasts.
This podcast was once simply a vision to bring together all the information I’ve collated over the 2 decades I’ve spent searching for answers to what makes us whole - as part of my own journey from disability to wellness. There were podcasts for nutrition, yoga, mental health, biohacking and all the other things, but not one that combined it all. That was my vision - a hub for well-being.
And here I am, 100 episodes later! So, to mark the occasion, I asked my friend and top UK wellness expert, Jasmine Hemsley, to interview me!
We had THE most expansive chat on everything from my journey from disability to wellness that brought me here, parenthood (and the juggle!), to how to make wellness a reality, and so much more. Jasmine also took the opportunity to ask me many of the rapid-fire questions I ask guests, which was a lot of fun.
I speak about how, though my lifestyle may be more “extreme” when it comes to wellbeing than others, this podcast is a way for me to meet people where they’re at and offer them a one-stop-shop for all the health and growth information they’re looking for (and some they don’t even know they’re looking for!)
Please enjoy this very special episode that is a huge milestone for me after so much perseverance, energy, late nights, fights with technology, pestering of guests, and a vision to create a hub that makes life optimisation accessible to all.
