The Truth about Surrogacy

This week on Alive and Kicking Clare McKenna talks about surrogacy when she meets the Irish solicitor Tracy Horan who has helped many struggling to conceive and become parents.. Clare chats to Aoife Kane about how her time in a hospital bed led her to stress management and yoga. Plus we hear all the time about calories in and calories out being the secret to getting to a healthy weight but is it that simple? Clare meets two body building champions who’ve turned their back on weighing and obsessing and say we need to get to the root of why we eat the way we eat before anything will change.
