@nickichappers joins me this week to share what it was like promoting the biggest bands in the world of pop, and working at the top of the music industry for twenty years. The nostalgia really hits! Nicki also shares what it was like facing her own mortality at her midpoint, when she was diagnosed with a life threatening brain tumour. She’s candid about her strengths and weaknesses; feeling grateful; and not being afraid to move on from things that no longer make you happy. Listen in full via the link in my bio.
Comedian @suziruffellcomedy joins me this week to talk about growing up and realising she was gay without any positive point of reference, and why now – on the cusp of midlife – she’s more determined than ever to celebrate the joy of being gay and having a family of her own. Suzi also explains the Kate Winslet effect to me; we talk about why it’s only when you really try for something and risk failure that you create something you’re really proud of; and why Suzi’s dad is more proud of the miles she travels than the TV shows she appears on! Spoiler alert: Suzi’s dad might be the real star of this episode. Listen in full via The Mid•Point link in my bio.
Happy Boxing Day! The Mid•Point festive special dropped yesterday, but if you’re anything like me you were probably frantically preparing Christmas dinner at the time, and hopefully enjoying quality time with your loved ones. In this week’s episode, Lois and Kenny join me to relive some of our most memorable (and embarrassing) Christmas moments, and reflect on all the changes that have gone on in the Logan household in 2024. You’ll be left wondering whether a white wine Fanta spritz is worth a try? How old is too old for Kids’ Mass on Christmas Eve? And is there anything more pointless than decorative Christmas crackers? Listen via the link in my bio, but be warned: it does contain Christmas spoilers!
Happy New Year’s Eve🥳 So happy to be joint team England captain with @mrantondubeke for @doddie_aid it all kicks off tomorrow. So if you’re looking for some inspiration to get yourself moving in 2025, then look no further. 💙💛

Ahead of World Alzheimer’s Day on Saturday, this week on The Mid•Point I speak with Chief Medical Officer at @alzheimersresearchuk, Professor Jonathan Schott @uclbrainsciences. We discuss the 14 modifiable risk factors that have been identified for dementia – including two which have recently been added to the list – and how these risk factors interact with each other and impact our brain health. We also unpick the top lines when it comes to how preventable dementia really is, and the new test and potential treatments which have got professionals like Professor Schott hopeful about the future. He also answers your questions on everything from how food, sleep, and exercise impacts brain health, to whether there are any links between dementia and the menopause, and how you can flex your memory muscles. Thank you so much for sending your questions in – I hope you get a lot out of this episode.

‘We’re insulting football fans’ intelligence…it drives me crazy!’ 🤯  Jamie Redknapp claims that tapping up is still rife in football, and calls for rules to change with fans now savvier than ever.  @gabbylogan | @markchapmansport | @jamie.redknapp | @globalplayer
Psychologist @drlindap has been looking into the cognitive impact of self-perception for many years, and so this week, I put your questions on body image directly to her, and discuss some of the challenges that are unique to midlife when it comes to accepting how we look. We talk about how confidence can impact so many things, and why it’s important we manage the way we speak to ourselves – the only thing we can truly control! We also discuss the impact that social media can have on how we feel about ourselves, and ways to build digital resilience and protect ourselves online.

Happy New Year! On The Mid•Point, we’re putting our best foot forward and kicking off 2025 with Dr Rangan Chatterjee. @drchatterjee has been a practicing medical doctor for over twenty years, but he turned his attention to writing and podcasting because he wanted to help more people be the architects of their own health. Rangan is ringing in the new year with the release of his latest book Make Change That Lasts, and that’s what today’s conversation is all about; how to make meaningful health and lifestyle changes…that last! We discuss the power of daily rituals, no matter how short on time you are; why living in line with our values is so important to our overall health; why small things done consistently can have a big impact; and perhaps surprisingly, why we are overreliant on experts! Listen in full via the link in my bio.
On the 7th day of Christmas, The Sports Agents gave to me, 4 minutes of hilarity…
Wellness expert @adrienne_ldn is on a mission to help make decision making easier in a world of endless choice – the premise of her latest book, Decisions That Matter. Adrienne talks me through her six rules for decision making, as well as some of the stumbling blocks when it comes to being decisive in the modern world. We discuss how confidence can impact decision making; why it’s important to assess the urgency of a decision; and how good decisions may not always feel good in the moment. Click The Mid•Point link in my bio to hear Adrienne’s advice in full! #decisionmaking #lifedecisions #themidpoint #decisionsthatmatter #wellness
