During my personal quest to discover more about wellness, physical, and spiritual growth, I began to learn more about the different wellness modalities available to us. Through this podcast, I hope to share what I have learned with you, and hopefully, the information will point you in the right direction. Every week, I share or have conversations with wellness experts and practitioners on various topics that dig deep into what nourishes our mind, body, and soul.

In today's episode, we talk about parenting. Specifically the parenting relationship between Anabel and Carmen. This episode is a slightly different twist to my usual interview discussions.
Today, instead of an "expert" on the show, we have real-life, flesh and blood human beings, who are mother and daughter and they will share their personal story on parenting and the lessons they've learned along the way.
Carmen and I met in 2016 whilst we were both visiting Japan, she was visiting a friend and I was visiting my own and we all happened to be meeting our friends in the same resto-bar in the beach town of Fujisawa. We then made another connection that two other friends of ours worked in the same film company in Lisbon. What are the odds?
Since then we stayed in touch. On Facebook, I would see these endearing posts of Carmen's mother, Anabel. I was fascinated by their bond and it was then I invited them to come on the show for a chat.
It was a lovely conversation and it was just nice to talk about the lessons they'd learned along the way as their journeys took them and how their dynamic evolved.
At one point they were even roommates-that were flatmates -and also mother and daughter that shared a common group of friends. Now, that's not something you hear every day.

A good night’s sleep is incredibly precious to have and important for our health.
It should be as important as eating healthy and exercising.
Unfortunately, there are various reasons that can interfere with our natural sleep patterns.
People are now sleeping less than they did in the past, and sleep quality has decreased as well.
In today’s episode, we are thrilled to have Dr. Eti Ben Simon, a postdoctoral fellow at the Center for Human Sleep Science at UC Berkeley in California, directed by Matthew Walker, to share her research and insights on the science of sleep, and how we can maximize the benefits of our rest time to really recover, regenerate and heal from our day’s activities.
In this episode we will cover:
- The stages of sleep
- What happens in each stage that corresponds to the rest of the body
- Teenage Sleep: why do they sleep later- the delayed body clock
- Chronotype: e.g. Night Owl - Why is it important to understand your chronotype
- Can you change your chronotype
- Parkinson's, Cognitive Delay, Cardiovascular disease and how these relate to sleep
