Welcome to The Shrewsbury Biscuit's 2025 coverage of the Shropshire Wellbeing Festival at Shrewsbury Town Football Club.

At last year's event, Alex wanted to understand “What is wellbeing?” But this year, after a year in therapy, Alex wanted to discover some important tips to help us navigate a day of positive wellbeing — including the things we should do and the things we shouldn’t do.

Alex also makes a revelation about three-quarters of the way through this series of interviews that sends him down a brass-coated rabbit hole.

“I spoke to so many great people at this year's Wellbeing Festival, and I feel privileged to share these discussions with you. I hope there are listeners who find something positive in this episode that helps them be the best version of themselves.”

“Thank you to Lorraine, Kris, and everyone who spoke to me :)”
