Jacqueline is the founding director of My Care Consultant, a market-leader in helping people navigate the care system, and she is a fountain of knowledge in all things care related. in episode 40 she explained the fundamentals of the UK care system and returned in episode 154 to share tips on how to apply successfully for NHS Continuing Healthcare.
Well, she's back with exciting news about her latest venture, My Care Hub. Imagine having a guidebook for the labyrinth that is care support in the UK, a pioneering online one-stop shop for care advice – that's what Jacqueline's developed! And it's not just for those who need care themselves; My Care Hub will be a lifeline for the unsung everyday heroes out there, the millions of unpaid carers.
It’s also a wondered resource for my financial planner friends listening to better support your clients.
We also chat about the Carer's Leave Act of 2023 – a big win for carers everywhere. So, grab your cuppa, settle in, and let's get into my conversation with Jacqueline.

Do you believe you can heal faster just by tricking your brain?
Could you lose weight with only a change of mindset? 

Could you think yourself into being younger? 

Can the power of your thoughts defy ageing?
In short, have you ever wondered if you could improve your health by harnessing the power of your mind?
When it comes to our health, too many of us feel trapped by a medical diagnosis, believing that it can only mean a static or worsening condition. Whether it is stiff knees, frayed nerves or failing eyesight, your mind can lead you to believe things will only get worse. But this week’s guest has proven through decades of scientific research that with practical steps you can take control of your mindset, by using your thoughts and perspective to help improve your wellbeing.
Award-winning social psychologist Professor Ellen Langer has been studying the connection between the mind and body for over 4 decades as an esteemed psychologist at Harvard. Known as the "mother of mindfulness”, she is the author of 13 books, including her most recent release Mindful Body - Thinking Our Way to Lasting Health, which will help you navigate a path to improved health and wellbeing.
We also explore the concept of risk as a personal phenomenon and its impact upon how we approach retirement planning.

Hello and welcome – today I have the pleasure of sharing a fascinating conversation I had with Professor Paul Dolan – who’s maybe better known as the Professor of Happiness. 
Paul is a behavioural scientist, advisor to the government and currently Professor of Behavioural Science at the London School of Economics and Political Science. He’s published 41 peer reviewed articles and been cited more than 32,000. Paul has certainly made the science of happiness his business. 
You may well have read one of his two best-selling books. The first is called ‘Happiness by Design’ and his most recently released book is called ‘Happy Ever After’, which is the focus of our conversation today.
We chat about all things related to happiness, not least how to make your retirement years as fulfilling as possible.

In this week’s podcast, Dr Martin Hyde is making getting old sexy.
Martin is a renowned gerontologist. In our conversation we delve into what being a gerontologist actually means, and Martin debunks the misconception that studying older individuals is uninteresting or uninspiring. 
Martin has collaborated with researchers from around the globe, allowing him to explore the diverse experiences of aging in different countries and among various groups of people. His work has truly become an exciting area of research, keeping him continually curious and eager to learn more about the complexities of aging.
Remember, that getting old also impacts the young!  Martin highlights the importance of looking at your whole life course, so you plan for what it takes to be old and happy.
I hope our conversation will open your eyes to how the perception of getting old does not match reality.
