Summary

TW: infant loss and birth trauma Dr Jen Gunter is an obstetrician-gynaecologist, pain medicine physician and bestselling author. She’s most well-known to many of us as Twitter’s resident OB-GYN, the woman who took on Gwyneth Paltrow’s Goop with claims of medical misinformation and one of the fiercest advocates for women’s health the world over. She had premature triplet boys in 2003 and tragically, one of her sons died at birth. To this day, Dr Gunter says her two boys ‘keep me so honest it hurts’. We discuss everything from first periods, failed marriages, failure to exercise to a failure to say no - sound familiar?! As always, I’d LOVE to hear about your failures. Every week, my guest and I choose a selection to read out and answer on our special subscription offering, Failing with Friends. We’ll endeavour to give you advice, wisdom, some laughs and much, much more. Have something to share of your own? I'd love to hear from you!

0:00.0	So often on how to fail we talk about listening to your gut, but today I want to talk to you about looking after your gut too.
0:08.0	I recently started eating Yow Valley Organic Kofir and it is a delicious addition to my morning
0:14.8	avocado toast. It makes being just that little bit healthier, super easy.
0:19.4	I don't even need to think, I just take it out of the fridge and go. Each spoonful of Yow Valley
0:24.4	organic kaffir is delicious at heart, mild and refreshing, packed with billions of
0:29.7	live bacteria from 14 different culture strains to support your gut
0:34.2	flora diversity. It contains calcium to show your gut some love and
0:38.4	phosphorus for energy and bones. It's lovingly made in Somerset with all the goodness of organic British milk.
0:45.4	Even better the packaging is so convenient and honestly I really mean this the
0:50.2	950 gram family pack is a rectangular shape and it fits perfectly in your fridge door.
0:55.6	Plus the Kefir bottles are made so you can just grab and go.
0:59.2	Find Yow Valley organic kafir in all major supermarkets in potted or drinkable formats.

1:25.5	interview format on its head, celebrating failure rather than success. Because what we learn
1:31.0	from the former is often far more important than anything that comes from the latter.
1:35.8	It's how we respond to failure that defines our character and helps us grow.
1:41.2	Every episode I ask a very special guest to discuss three failures
1:46.0	and how they emerged on the other side to be the person we see today.
1:50.3	Just before we get to my chat with Dr. Jen Gunter, please do join me after this episode on
1:55.1	failing with friends, my subscriber series where we continue our conversation and take a look
2:01.1	at your failures or questions with my fabulous guest.
