In this episode of Outspoken Mental Health I'm talking about the panic attack that I had on the London Underground last week and why even though it's thrown me, I refuse to let it set me back. This is a conversation about never giving into fear, even when it feels horrific.

I'm so excited to introduce you to the brilliant Dr Fiona Graham.Fiona is a GP who is passionate about women's health and who gives advice and guidance that is realistic and achievable. Having worked for the NHS she launched Chelmsford Private GPs with two other female doctors. She is an expert in women's health, mental health and lifestyle and is so good at what she does.During the episode I pick her brains about many of the issues I know that so many of us are facing. We have an honest chat about semiglutides, hormones and some of the tools we can use to stay as healthy as possible.Fiona is the doctor that so many of us need and I really hope you get us much out of this episode as I have.
