Welcome to episode 30 with Dr Lucy Hone. In this episode Lucy shares insights on resilience, anxiety, and coping with disruption, challenge, change and loss. Regarded as a thought leader in the field of resilience psychology, tragic circumstances forced Lucy to focus more closely on grief when her 12-year-old daughter was killed in a horrific motor vehicle accident. Lucy is a senior fellow at the University of Canterbury, an internationally sought-after professional speaker, best-selling author, and award-winning ‘pracademic’, Lucy has a gift for turning complex science into useable tools. Covid-19 saw her TED talk, '3 Secrets of Resilient People', go viral making it one of the Top 20 most watched TED talks of 2020 and the most watched of any New Zealander. It is such a privilege to have sat down with Lucy and cover so many topics surrounding mental fitness and well-being that all of us can relate so much to. For all the links and resources mentioned, please refer to the podcast description below. Otherwise, I hope you enjoy hearing from Lucy as much as I did.

E29: Professor Frank Frizelle

Monday Nov 07, 2022
It is an honour to have Professor Frank Frizelle join me for episode 29. Frank is a leading gastroenterologist and colorectal surgeon based here in Christchurch. I first met Frank many years ago when I was about 12, as he was the specialist throughout my mother’s bowel cancer journey. This whole experience is definitely a time in my life that sparked a real interest for me in medicine, health, and nutrition’s involvement with bowel diseases. Since then, I have followed a lot of Frank’s research, his involvement in the bowel cancer New Zealand charity, and have had the privilege of working with patients who have been previously under his care. I hope you enjoy listening to this very in-depth, interesting and thought-provoking discussion.
