Story
When Wendy Mitchell was diagnosed with dementia at the age of 58, she had to say good-bye to the woman she once was. Her career in the NHS, her ability to drive, cook and run - the various shades of her independence - were suddenly gone. Yet Wendy was determined not to give in. She was, and still is, propelled by a need to live in the moment, never knowing which version of herself might surface tomorrow.

In Gut, Giulia Enders shows that rather than the utilitarian and - let's be honest - somewhat embarrassing body part we imagine it to be, it is one of the most complex, important, and even miraculous parts of our anatomy.

Summary
Joining us in the Audible Studios to talk about her new book, Help Me!, is British writer, journalist and creator of The Help Me Blog Marianne Power.
Marianne started her journey in 2014. A writer and journalist, Power found herself stuck and decided to live by the rules of one self-help book a month over the course of one year, charting her progress on her Help Me Blog. The end results have been published in her debut book, Help Me!
Marianne Power talks to us about why she started the project, which self-help books she would and wouldn’t recommend and the lessons she’s picked up along the way.
