They Told Her to Lose Weight, She Built a Wellness Empire Instead
When a modelling agent told Emily English to slim down, it triggered an eating disorder that stole years of her life. But what followed was a radical transformation - from obsessive calorie-counting to becoming one of the UK’s most influential nutritionists, with over 2.5 million followers. In this powerful episode, Emily opens up about her recovery, her no-nonsense approach to food, why joy and connection matter just as much as nutrients, and how she built a wellness empire rooted in empathy. Expect chat about walking as a miracle movement, budget-friendly meals, the truth about oat milk, and the supplement she swears by.

This week Roisín is joined by broadcaster, philanthropist and former Women’s Health cover star Katie Piper. She shares her current running MO and how lacing up her trainers helps shift her mood and elevate her day. Whether that’s commuting between meetings in the city or heading out with a pal - and a head torch - for a pre-dawn session in the hills near her home, before her busy day begins. A long-time champion of moving your body to support your mental health, Katie discusses how running increased her self-belief and why - crucially - it could do the same for you.
In today's Coaching Clinic, Katie is joined by Nike Run Coach and top physiotherapist Manni Ovola. He arms her with the tools she needs to smash her own running goal: running her best 5k.
