Brave Voices with Davina McCall: Series Two - Foundations of Wellness

Last year, we launched Brave Voices, our inspiring series of wellness talks led by Davina McCall, celebrating women who choose to embrace living bravely. 

Now, Brave Voices is back for 2026 with eight new conversations exploring the foundations of wellness- from spotting the signs of stress to simplifying wellness and choosing a life of balance over burnout.

Joining Davina this season are Joe Marler, professional rugby player and mental health advocate, nutritionist and functional medicine practitioner Rose Ferguson, and presenter, author & breath expert Ashley Roberts. 

Drawing on their own lived experience, together, they explore what it really means to build a foundation for lasting wellness, not through perfection or overhaul, but through the small, consistent choices that make a genuine difference.

Episode One: The Storm before the Calm 

Burnout rarely announces itself, instead building quietly with signals we learn to overlook. In our first episode of series two, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley reflect honestly on the warning signs they wished they'd caught sooner;  the stress signals, the overwhelm, the quiet moments of nervous system dysregulation that so often go unheard. Drawing on their own lived experience, they share the tools and awareness that can help you learn how to listen to your body. 

Episode Two: Building Your Foundations 

The foundations of genuine wellness are often simpler than you might think. In our second episode, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley move from that moment of realisation that something needs to change to the practical work of rebuilding; the daily routines, nutritional foundations and small but powerful habits that create lasting change. With firsthand knowledge of starting over and stripping back, they share the tools that have helped them build genuine resilience. From Davina incorporating True Creatine+ her daily routine to help build back muscle and Joe’s love of Brave Ancestral Protein as an easy ‘top up’ that doesn’t battle his digestive system, to how they learn to sit within the quiet moments, we hear how the panel have nourished themselves back to bravery. 

Episode Three: Wellness Tips for Real Life 

Wellness doesn't have to be complicated. In our third episode, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley share the everyday essentials they keep coming back to; the non-negotiables, the small consistent habits and the simple foundations that create real, lasting impact. From nutrition, incorporating True Biome and True Omegas+ into your daily diet, to movement to sleep aided by True Magnesium+ and True Nightcap and hydration support with True Hydration, they share practical wisdom that fits all of our lives.

Episode Four: Living Bravely 

Bravery looks different for everyone, and it changes as we do. In episode four, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley reflect on what it truly means to live bravely in their lives right now; from shifting perspectives and personal intentions to the quiet courage it takes to rest, recover and give yourself space to grow. 

Episode Five: The Challenge 

Sometimes the next step in building bravery is the decision to try something new. In episode five, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley each set themselves a challenge for 2026. From learning to swim and sitting a Maths A-Level, to the quieter but equally courageous work of finding more balance and being kinder to yourself, it is proof that bravery does not always look like the same thing.

Episode Six: The Secret Nugget 

Often, the most powerful insights are the simplest ones. In episode six, Davina, Joe, Rose and Ashley each share their single most important piece of wisdom for living a balanced, fulfilled life; the thing they return to again and again. From the freedom that comes with saying no to the quiet damage of carrying guilt, this is the episode to come back to whenever you need a gentle reminder to show up for yourself.

Episode Seven: Breathe with Ashley, Part One 

Your breath is one of the most powerful tools you have, and most of us have forgotten how to use it. In our seventh episode, Ashley guides Davina, Joe and Rose through a breathwork session designed for beginners; simple, accessible and genuinely transformative. Whether you're new to breathwork or looking for a moment to reset, this is your invitation to start.

Episode Eight: Breathe with Ashley, Part Two 

What if something as simple as humming could help you feel calmer, clearer and more grounded? In our eighth and final episode of Brave Voices, Ashley guides Davina, Joe and Rose through a series of vagus nerve stimulating practices that soothe the parasympathetic nervous system, bringing calm and reducing anxiety, an essential  tool kit for those times that your bravery needs a boost.

Joe Marler: Broadcaster & Brand Ambassador 

Joe has spent his career doing one of the most physically demanding jobs in sport. As a professional rugby player, he knows what it takes to push the body to its limits, but it's his willingness to go inward, speaking openly and honestly about his mental health struggles, that has made him a truly powerful voice for a different kind of strength. Joe embodies the belief that real bravery isn't just about what you can endure, but about choosing to show up for yourself, every single day.
