Well this week's episode of The House of Wellness on The Breeze thanks to our friends at La Roche-Posay Effacular range all of that is here for you.
This week on the show Mel chats to Emma Henderson, the general manager of the Tourette's Association of New Zealand and her Brother Chris Henderson who not only lives with Tourette's, but happens to be a co-founder and CEO of Pita Pit NZ. Mel also catches up with dermatologist Dr Monique MacKenzie, Musician and kiwi icon the and only Boh Runga, and the show's pharmacist Piyara.
Emma and Chris Henderson go in depth into not only Tourette's awareness month which is happening from May 15th-June 15th, but also how Emma and Chris have had to live through Chris having Tourette's, how important it is to be educated on what it is, and how creating a safe and supportive environment is key.
