Description
Feeling trapped in a cycle of unhealthy food and drink choices? This episode unravels the complex factors behind them, revealing it's more than just a lack of willpower or personal failing. Join Matty Lansdown and Sarah Rusbatch, author of "Beyond Booze," as they crack open a thought-provoking conversation on the rising dangers of alcohol consumption for women in their 40s, 50s and 60s.
