    Ep 810 | Detoxifying Your Life: Birth Control, Cleaning Chemicals & Fake Food | Guest: Shawna Holman

    Ep 810 | Detoxifying Your Life: Birth Control, Cleaning Chemicals & Fake Food | Guest: Shawna Holman
    Today we're joined by Shawna Holman, founder of A Little Less Toxic, to discuss her story of learning to build a less toxic life and share tips on how we can take steps in the same direction. Shawna shares her story of struggling through illness and endless antibiotic treatments, only to find that lifestyle changes would ultimately help heal her body. We discuss Shawna's approach to both simplifying your life and also making your home less toxic, even if it starts with eliminating just one toxic cleaning product. We talk about the "crunchy" movement and why the "all or nothing" mentality can overwhelm rather than help. We also discuss the balance of modern medicine – while we're overprescribing and overmedicating, modern medicine is saving lives. How do we find a good balance and correct answers to our health questions? Then, how toxic is birth control, and which methods are safer than others?

    172 - Learning to make empowered choices after cancer with Dani Binnington

    172 - Learning to make empowered choices after cancer with Dani Binnington

    Dani Binnington was diagnosed with breast cancer as a young mum at 33. For the next few years her life did not feel under her own control amidst countless medical appointments, treatments and surgeries. After discovering she carried the genetic BRCA1 mutation, Dani chose to have a double mastectomy and at 39 she opted to have both her ovaries removed as several family members had died from ovarian cancer.

    Previously a jewellery designer, Dani then embarked on a change of direction towards yoga and healthy living, and she now offers programmes for women on menopause after cancer. Dani is on a mission to empower women to learn about their choices, seek out specialist menopause care and her goal is for every women to have the conversations with healthcare professionals that they deserve.

    Dani’s tips for women after cancer:

    1. Talk about it with the right group of people that understand what you’re going through
    2. Make time for yourself to check and understand your symptoms
    3. Continue conversations with your healthcare team and ask for specialist menopause care
    4. Learn all your treatment options, including hormonal and non-hormonal treatments, complementary therapies, lifestyle management, and how to avoid triggers.
    5. Don’t sit back, show up for yourself and be empowered. Be active in your own recovery.

    250. Andy & DJ CTI: Black Panther Director Arrested, No Jail Time For Injecting Patients & U.S. Biolabs In Ukraine

    250. Andy & DJ CTI: Black Panther Director Arrested, No Jail Time For Injecting Patients & U.S. Biolabs In Ukraine

    In today's episode, Andy & DJ discuss "Black Panther" director Ryan Coogler being mistaken for a bank robber & arrested after attempting to withdraw $12,000 discreetly with a note, no jail time for a biotech executive who administered his own fake Covid-19 vaccine, and Russia revealing the United States has Biolabs with plague & anthrax in Ukraine.

    ASK248: I got a bargain - should I flip it? PLUS: Will this help me avoid the stamp duty surcharge?

    ASK248: I got a bargain - should I flip it? PLUS: Will this help me avoid the stamp duty surcharge?

    It’s another Tuesday, so it’s another Ask Rob & Rob. And we’ve got two cracking property questions for you.

    The first question is from Dom who’s just completed on a 2-bedroom flat in South London. He agreed the price back in January before the dreaded coronavirus, and went back to negotiate on the advice of Rob & Rob and managed to snap up an absolute bargain!

    So he’s ended up with a new house at a massively discounted price. 

    Today he’s asking whether Rob & Rob reckon he should flip it, take the cash and wait for another dip. 

    Rob B has some solid advice today and a bit of warning about that ‘paper-profit’. Dom needs to be careful about allocating overall transaction costs and also about potentially investing on the expectation of a dip in the market. 

    Why should Dom be careful? Why should nobody ever invest based on assumptions? Tune in to find out.

    Next up is Sabrina from Newcastle. She got hooked on the podcast after reading Rob D’s book and hasn’t looked back ever since - that’s what we like to hear! 

    Sabrina is a first time buyer and wants to know if investing in property via a limited company would preserve her first time buyer status for when she eventually buys her own residential property to live in - therefore avoiding that 3% stamp duty surcharge on second properties.  

    Listen as Rob D takes the lead on this question and explains how we’re all judged as individuals when it comes to property transactions. 

    Try as we might, there’s no getting around stamp duty unfortunately. 

    If only we could wave that magic wand!

    Tune in to today’s Ask Rob & Rob, it’s one not to be missed!

    #486: How to Get Better at Making Life-Changing Decisions

    #486: How to Get Better at Making Life-Changing Decisions

    How do you make the biggest decisions you face, the ones that have significant consequences and can change your life? Choices like whether to get married, move, attend a certain college, take a particular job, and so on? If you're like a lot of people, you just kind of wing it, and maybe draw up a basic pros and cons list.

    My guest today has studied the latest research in decision making theory and formulated a better approach. His name is Steven Johnson, his latest book is Farsighted: How We Make the Decisions That Matter the Most, and today he walks us through how to move beyond listing pros and cons to using a more effective 3-step decision making process. We begin our conversation discussing how most people make decisions and how it hasn’t changed much in hundreds of years. Steven then walks us through the phases of a better decision-making methodology, including developing a more creative map of the possibilities before you, accurately predicting the outcomes of those options, and questioning the narratives you have about your choices. Steven then makes the case that reading novels and watching quality television shows can be a great way to train our brains in the skill of decision making. We end our conversation discussing what the raid on Osama bin Laden can teach us about making good decisions.
