For our Wednesday Profile, we speak to one of Kenya’s prominent young politicians, Dr Isaac Maigua Mwaura, about his journey through public service, politics, advocacy and communication.

Losing a significant amount of weight can be life changing, but the physical transformation does not always end when the number on the scale comes down. On #TheUpside, Poppy and Ntsako speak to Mohamad Turk, CEO of Splash Clinic, about what can happen to the body after major weight loss, whether it comes through surgery or medications such as GLP-1 treatments. For some people, weight loss can leave behind loose skin, changes in facial volume, altered body proportions and dissatisfaction with their appearance. That can lead to questions about cosmetic procedures, but also about when the body has had enough time to settle and whether surgery is really addressing the underlying concern. In this conversation: Why loose skin can remain after significant weight loss How major weight loss can change facial volume and body proportions The physical changes that may follow weight-loss surgery or GLP-1 treatments Why patients may still feel dissatisfied after reaching their goal weight When cosmetic procedures may be appropriate Why timing matters before undergoing another procedure The difference between a genuine surgical concern and deeper body-image distress Why repeated procedures do not always resolve dissatisfaction How doctors assess whether someone is ready for cosmetic surgery The conversation looks beyond weight loss itself and explores what happens when the body changes faster than a person’s expectations, confidence or sense of self. 👍 Like, subscribe and turn on notifications for more health, wellness and lifestyle conversations from #TheUpside. #TheUpside #WeightLoss #BodyImage Lightbox link for post with description Losing a significant amount of weight can be life...

What happens to a relationship when a prostate cancer diagnosis changes life overnight? On #TheUpside, Poppy and Ntsako speak to Jonathan and Nwabisa Muthige, co-founders of the Factor of Ten Foundation, about Jonathan’s Stage 3 prostate cancer diagnosis and the impact it had on their relationship, family life and outlook on men’s health. After noticing a subtle symptom following a game of golf, Jonathan went for a medical check and received a diagnosis that would change far more than his daily routine. For both him and Nwabisa, the experience highlighted how important early action, honest communication and emotional support can be when a serious diagnosis enters a family. The conversation also brings in relationship expert and therapist Thabang Mashigo, who explores the emotional and relational challenges couples may face when dealing with illness. In this conversation: Jonathan’s journey to a Stage 3 prostate cancer diagnosis Why men should not ignore subtle changes in their bodies The higher prostate cancer risk facing Black African men The emotional impact of diagnosis on partners and families How serious illness can test a relationship Why communication becomes even more important during treatment Supporting a partner without losing sight of your own wellbeing Breaking the silence around men’s health The work of the Factor of Ten Foundation Why early medical attention can make a difference As Prostate Cancer Awareness Month continues, this conversation is a reminder that cancer does not only affect the person diagnosed. It can reshape relationships, families and the way people think about health, vulnerability and support. 👍 Like, subscribe and turn on notifications for more health, relationship and lifestyle conversations from #TheUpside. #TheUpside #ProstateCancerAwareness #MensHealth Lightbox link for post with description What happens to a relationship when a prostate...
