Summary
A stalwart of the stand-up circuit and renowned actor, Kerry Godliman has a CV that many would envy.
Kerry tells Gabby about how doing stand-up can feel like having a superpower. She talks about being comfortable in her skin as a mid-life performer, and about losing the ‘bolshy’ approach with which she manoeuvred the male-dominated world of comedy in the 1990’s.
Gabby is also joined by Dr Julia Jones. A self described 'smart-wellness' expert, Dr Julia practises a number of bio-hacks in order to help people live healthier for longer. Gabby and Dr Julia discuss the benefits of fostering a healthy gut biome, fasting, music and cold water immersion.

| 0:48.1 | for a little bit longer than normal, but the iPad away, read something that I wouldn't |
| 0:52.3 | ordinarily open and actually have proper long conversations that can go anywhere with my loved |
| 0:57.7 | ones. Which is why British Airways holidays want us all to start taking our holidays a little |
| 1:02.4 | bit more seriously. Shockingly, 50% of UK workers don't take their full annual leave allocation. |
