To kick off Mental Health Awareness Week (13-19 May), we sit down with Chloe Brotheridge, author of hit book The Anxiety Solution and, now, its follow-up Brave New Girl.

With her insight and array of tips and advice, Chloe is BALANCE podcast gold.

Chloe is a hypnotherapist and business and personal coach, who achieved richly deserved acclaim with barnstorming debut The Anxiety Solution.

In our chat, Chloe shares tips for dealing with anxiety, while also talking about new book Brave New Girl (and, yes fellas, a lot of it’s for boys too before you get your Y-fronts in a twist).

To the uninitiated, in each episode, deputy editor James Gill (occasionally joined by founder/editor Sophie Scott) chats with luminaries from entertainment, wellness, sport, business and beyond about how to optimise health, happiness and performance. And should you want to rate it five stars, please know we won’t be offended.
