    Raising Series A for Beam. Beam decodes people’s lives, providing holistic insight into their mental, physical and financial health and the clarity and control to reduce stress and improve resilience. It “connects the dots” by securely syncing data from services they already use, then visualises and interprets it to pinpoint and predict emotional triggers, behaviour patterns and provide personalised support. Beam is simple and intuitive and importantly, entirely ad-free with personal user data secure and visible only to them via end-to-end encryption We have tested the App extensively with fantastic feedback.

Better with Age

  • Podcaster/Consultant Therapist

    2023

    I created Better with Age, because since school, sport and fitness have been important parts of my life. I recently qualified as a hypnotherapist and I have realised how much of my training is mental as well as physical. I host a podcast aimed at helping older athletes stay fit and maximise their performance. Every week I interview inspiring athletes, coaches and related medical professionals with a view to helping amateur athletes on their fitness journeys. I also offer hypnotherapy to people wanting to achieve the best results from their training, whether they be experienced athletes or just interested amateurs, www.betterwithage.live
