Heal Better, Heal Faster - Using Food to Flourish After Surgery by Lynn Slovak This episode explores Heal Better, Heal Faster: Using Food to Flourish After Surgery by Lynn Slovak, a practical guide to supporting recovery through nutrition. Drawing on her experience as a holistic nutritionist and her own journey through major surgery, Lynn explains how everyday foods can help support wound healing, reduce inflammation, strengthen immunity, and rebuild energy during recovery. We discuss why nutrition is often overlooked in the healing process, the simple changes people can make before and after surgery, and the restorative recipes and meal ideas featured in the book. Whether you're preparing for an operation, recovering from illness or injury, or caring for someone you love, this conversation offers practical insights into the role food can play in supporting health and wellbeing.

Workplaces That Work, Part 3: Accommodations That Actually Help Workplace accommodations for neurodivergent adults begin with understanding the person, the work and what gets in the way. Stephen Harrison explores the difference between essential outcomes and habitual working methods, and why identical treatment does not always create equal opportunity. Examples include quieter working environments, written instructions, visible priorities and flexibility where the role allows it. The discussion also considers when support becomes taking over, why a diagnosis does not prescribe an accommodation, and how employees and employers can develop solutions together. An accommodation can begin as something to trial and review rather than a perfect answer. Go to ThrivalCoaching.nz for additional information and resources. Play Episode
