For this week's episode of Is It Hot In Here? podcast, Dr Naomi Potter is joined by chef, writer and Masterchef Champion, the wonderful Thomasina Miers.

One thing you should know about Naomi is that she might be a world-class menopause Doctor, but she's not the best in the kitchen... But can Tommi change this?

The podcast team set Naommi the challenge of following one of the simplest (and yummiest!) recipes in Tommi's new Mexican cookbook.

In this episode, Naomi and Tommi also discuss:

🌶️ Learning to love food again

🌶️ How to nourish your body in midlife (even if you hate cooking)

🌶️ The link between food and hormones

🌶️ Tommi's perimenopause experience

🌶️ Menopause and ADHD

And so much more.

This episode is full of flavour, vibrancy, and comfort. Do let us know if you enjoy!
