She is also part of the advisory team for Everydoctor; a campaigning organisation that fights for the NHS, staff and patients.

She is also especially interested in empowering patients through effective communication and explanation, to support them in making the decisions that are right for them.

  • How to talk about sex after becoming a parent

    How to talk about sex after becoming a parent
    Jun 11 2024

    This episode is a corker. Right at the top of the things we find awkward to talk about – sex.

    Specifically, we’re talking about sex after becoming a parent.

    Sex and parenthood are not natural bedfellows (pun absolutely intended). Fortunately, we have Clio Wood, women’s health and sexual wellbeing expert and author of ‘How to get your mojo back’, on hand to offer some advice about tackling this topic.
