BE HEALTHY WITH AMANDA
I’m Amanda, a nutritional therapist with over 14 years of experience, and the author of Feel Good for Menopause. I spend much of my work supporting women over 40, 50, and 60 as they navigate the changes that come with this stage of life.
So much shifts in our second half of life, yet many women don’t receive the information they need to age with strength, confidence, and optimism.
This podcast was created to change that. It helps women understand their nutritional needs and support their health in a simple, realistic way. I share up-to-date nutrition and lifestyle advice you can easily apply to everyday life.
Nutrition and lifestyle guidance for women who expect more from their wellbeing.

039 Why Putting Yourself First Actually Benefits Everyone Around You
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, I’m joined by mindfulness and holistic wellbeing expert Janine Tandy for a powerful conversation about midlife, mindfulness, and why putting yourself first isn’t selfish.
With over 20 years of experience, Janine brings a unique blend of Western psychology and Eastern mindfulness practices. She holds a Master of Public Health from New York University and is a qualified yoga teacher, Insight Timer meditation guide, certified health coach, and trained Internal Family Systems (IFS) practitioner.
In our conversation, we explore how easy it is to lose connection with yourself as life gets busier and why taking time to look after yourself doesn’t take away from others, but actually benefits them too.
Janine shares simple, practical ways to slow down, create space in your day, and find moments of stillness, even when life feels full. Whether it’s through meditation, quiet time, or simply learning to tune in, this episode is full of ideas to support your wellbeing.
