Embracing My “Second Prime” at 63: A New Chapter for Health and Vitality
I have been considering “Second Prime” created by Claire Richardson, founder of
GHS Clinics, and it truly resonated with me. At 63, healthy but carrying a few extra pounds
and knowing I need to get serious about exercise and diet. The idea of a “second prime”

Why I created Second Prime
Midlife is often portrayed as a plateau, a time to accept slower thinking, stubborn weight, or quieter ambitions. But I’ve never believed that. And neither does the science.

That’s the moment Second Prime is built for. It’s about claiming an opportunity. To bring strategy to your health. To take control of your next decades. To work with a clinical team that sees you not as a patient, but as a partner.

What if your forties and fifties aren’t a slow unravelling, but a powerful biological pivot, one where the right strategy can reshape your future?

AUTISM IN WOMEN: THE DECADES-LONG DIAGNOSTIC GAP
For decades, autism has been largely understood through a male lens. Research, diagnostic criteria, and societal perceptions have predominantly focused on how autism manifests in boys and men. This has left a significant and often devastating diagnostic gap for women and girls. In the UK, this gap means countless women have gone through life without understanding their neurodivergence, facing unnecessary challenges and often misdiagnosis. Why has this been the case, and what are the far-reaching consequences?
How to Lose Weight Safely Without Rebound Weight Gain
Losing weight is a common goal, but managing weight loss safely and sustainably is crucial. Many people experience so-called “rebound weight gain,” where they regain the lost weight, often with the gain of extra pounds.
