Let’s talk about relationships
Wellbeing & Self care series
“Healthy relationships enable us to be who we are,” says Mary Jo Kreitzer, Ph.D., R.N., Director of the Center for Spirituality & Healing. “They nurture us and they help us grow. They help us become better people.”
Join us for a relationship and self care discussion in conjunction with Ace of Jacks Ents, Unedited to support Black Cultural Archives
As you reflect on the last 3 months of 2019, come along to our interactive discussion focused on relationships and wellbeing.
Discussion points:
HOST:
Bernard P. Achampong – Radio Director & Digital Content Executive
Our host, Bernard P Achampong, has over 25 years media experience. He worked as an engineer in Biotech and Aerospace companies. He joined the BBC in 2002 and was part of the team that launched BBC Radio 1Xtra. Since then, he has journeyed through contrasting cultures within the same organisation: from the street savvy youth brands of Radio 1 and BBC Introducing, to the more Oxbridge-friendly Today Programme on Radio 4 and BBC Proms. In 2016, he joined Coventry University’s Entrepreneurship faculty where the established culture of academia challenged everything he knew about organisations.
“My job as a host is to get the people on the panel and the people who came to hear from them closer together; getting those questions asked and those answers shared.”
Bernard is a regular Inspirational YOU host, leading on our popular Relationship and Well-being seminars. He is the Founder of Unedited Production company and a Radio Director

==============================================================
Relationships can reduce stress and have been linked to overall improved health. Researchers have even shown that people with healthy social relationships have a 50 percent greater likelihood of survival.
But relationships are challenging – sometimes exhausting at best. People with poor relationships are more likely to suffer from depression, and loneliness is powerful enough to weaken our immune system.
