This is a podcast that will help you navigate the complexities of dementia. It’s presented by two friends who come at the subject from two very different perspectives.

Professor Julie Williams has spent most of her working life trying to understand Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia. Meanwhile, Justine Pickering understands the colossal human cost all too well. She lost her mum to a rare form of young-onset dementia before founding a unique respite project for families coping with the emotional toll of the disease.

In Two Minds brings you the highs and lows of the shared experiences of dementia. We’ll hear inspiring special guests and all about current research and future treatments.

Together, we’ll explore the challenges of coping with this disease and how to live well following diagnosis.Justine Pickering and Professor Julie Williams

  • Finding Purpose in the Face of Dementia: Helen Jolly on Love, Research and Resilience
    Oct 26 2026
    In the second part of our conversation with FTD Brother Cian Adams, Professor Julie and Justine welcome Helen Jolly, a genomic researcher at Oxford University and partner to Cian.

    ​Following Cian’s genetic diagnosis for frontotemporal dementia, Helen shares how her personal experience shaped her career trajectory into dementia research and the search for therapeutics.

    Together, the young couple discuss living in the present, navigating relationship and family planning decisions, participating in gruelling fundraising challenges, and finding catharsis through science and community.

  • Cian From The FTD Brothers - Living With Young Onset Dementia
    Oct 19 2026
    Welcome back to In Two Minds! We are kicking off Series Three with a deeply moving, vital, and inspiring conversation.

    ​We're joined by Cian, one half of the FTD Brothers. Cian shares his personal journey with Frontotemporal Dementia, from losing his mother to young-onset dementia (when he was just a child), to receiving his own diagnosis as an adult.

    ​Cian speaks openly about the emotional impact of growing up with dementia in the family, navigating his own diagnosis, and how he and his brother turned profound personal hardship into a powerful mission. Together, the FTD Brothers are dedicated to raising awareness and funding groundbreaking research to help find a cure for future generations.

  • In Conversation with Ruth Jones Part 2: Annie’s Legacy
    Feb 3 2026
    In part 2 of the conversation with her friend Ruth Jones, Justine speaks with raw honesty about the heartbreak of slowly losing her mum, the realities of caring and the overwhelming guilt that so often follows. She reflects on the moments she wishes she could relive, the memories she clings to, and the pain of a Christmas Eve goodbye.

    Driven by love and necessity, Justine created a respite project that transformed the lives of families living with dementia - a beautiful, dignified space where joy, music, kindness, and humanity come first, and where carers are finally given permission to rest.

    This episode is about more than loss. It’s about making moments matter. It’s about finding light in the darkest places and about the profound impact one woman’s life can have long after she’s gone.
