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.

Can you follow a religion and still believe in manifestation?
Do your religious beliefs increase or hinder your chances of manifestation?
What is the history and the link between the 2?
I answer all these questions and WAY more in this episode, as well as insights into my own religious and spiritual practices and how that has evolved over the years.

Jennifer Finley and I could speak for hours because there is so much to unpack when it comes to our shared passion of strengthening and connecting with our intuition.
Jennifer is not only a badass businesswoman, she’s also a genuine Yogi, Reiki master and highly trained NLP practitioner. She is also a deeply gifted intuitive and psychic.
In this episode we delve into how we can all tune back in with our intuition and gain deeper access to our psychic gifts, with tangible tools and exercises for doing this.
You can find Jennifer on Instagram @jeunejenni and as co-host on my favourite ever podcast, The Mind Your Business Podcast with James Wedmore.

The UK is ranked #23 in the worldwide education system rankings.
For one of the supposedly most evolved countries in the world, why are we number 23?
I have been fascinated with the idea of holistic education for a decade, ever since a friend gave me a book by Sir Ken Robinson, and told me to listen to his TED talk, “Do Schools Kill Creativity?”. That same friend went on to open a Democratic School, and put me in touch with Ben Kestner, who has created a system within the school he now runs that rivals any of the antiquated “education systems” we in the modern world are aware of.
Discussed:
What constitutes “education”?
Why are more families than ever opting for Unschooling?
Why are our schools failing our children?
How can we change it?
Can the system that currently exists improve, and how do we help that?
Is unschooling for me?
And ... why did I choose to recently choose to move my own son to a different school...
All this and more I speak to Ben about in this HUGELY eye-opening episode.
Whether you’re a parent or not, we all have an obligation to fight for a better, more aligned future for our children, so please make time to listen to this as a way to educate yourself on a new way of thinking.
Books recommended:
All books by Sir Ken Robinson - Finding Your Element and Creative Schools

Those of you who listen to this podcast a lot will recognise Raine Dunn. She’s been on the podcast twice before, as one of my closest friends and one of the few people in the world who acts as a true confidante and guide for me.
And both of us have recently undergone Explants, IE, removal of breast implants.
In this episode we discuss why we made this decision, what we (and many other women) experienced at the hands of breast implants, and what we uncovered in our tireless search for answers about breast implant toxicity that no one is talking about, least of all, breast surgeons.
This episode is about informed choice. Please listen with an open heart, regardless of your stance, and particularly listen if you have or are thinking of getting breast implants.
You can find Raine on Instagram @rainedunn

Why do we actually suffer from the traumas that we’ve experienced, long-term?

If you are suffering from trauma, please make use of this list of trauma resources I’ve created for this reason. HERE
Please also consider listening to the episode I recorded with Dr David Clarke, episode 25, HERE.

James Wedmore is my business coach, and someone I quote A LOT! His guidance, knowledge, spiritual ethos and downright complete integrity in everything he does, have inspired and motivated me more than I can ever describe - though I started this podcast before finding him, he was the reason I turned my passion into an actual business!
So of course I was SO excited to get the opportunity to speak to him on the podcast and I will go so far as to say that this episode is one of the most expansive I’ve ever recorded and that you’ll ever hear here.
Things we discuss:
- Building a business with integrity
- Why spirituality is THE most important aspect of running a business
- How to understand the quantum mechanics behind money
- Manifestation - money, relationships - everything!
- The work we do with the shaman we both work with
You can find James on Instagram @jameswedmore and you can check out all his offerings at www.jameswedmore.com

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.
If you’ve ever benefited from anything in this podcast, please help me celebrate by leaving a 5* review and sharing.
Make sure to check out Jasmine @jasminehemsley and on her website www.jasminehemsley.com
