The Nancy Stevens Lifestyle Show
Sunday, 7 December 2025 - 54 minutes
Step into a festive, fast-moving edition of The Nancy Stevens Lifestyle Show on New Horizon Radio, filled with reviews, real-life stories, wellness wisdom and a good dose of Nancy’s trademark sparkle. The episode opens with Christmas chaos creeping in, from crammed diaries to hormonal mayhem, before welcoming the much-loved Elsa, Nancy’s “hormonal fairy godmother”, who shares her best advice for staying balanced, calm and human over the holiday season.
Nancy dives into Jeffrey Archer’s Endgame, praising its tension, humour and vivid London 2012 setting, followed by her honest take on the second Wicked film — dazzling visuals, powerful performances, yet something missing. That leads into a sharp, heartfelt conversation about Hollywood’s alarming trend of extreme weight loss, body image pressures and the worrying signals coming from the film’s press trail.
There’s a gripping review of Malice, the new psychological drama starring Jack Whitehall, showcasing a completely different side to him. Nancy takes you through its Greek-island setting, unsettling twists and her own jaw-dropping reactions.
Listeners also get a tour of a festive wreath-making workshop with Carys Botanical Designs, complete with pine cones, tartan ribbon and mild creative mayhem, plus a look at Nancy’s own wardrobe-edit and colour-analysis gift vouchers for those impossible-to-buy-for loved ones.
In the second hour, Elsa returns to unpack menopause during the busiest time of the year — sleep, stress, food cravings, heart health, weight-loss drugs, body dysmorphia and how women can protect themselves physically and mentally. Practical tips include mindful eating, evening walks, protein-rich snacks, sleep banking and clever techniques to calm an overactive mind. There’s also an important discussion about women’s heart-attack symptoms, misdiagnosis, and why awareness needs to change.
The episode closes with updates on Elsa’s “Don’t Sweat It” walking groups, the Beyond Project, and Nancy’s upcoming Christmas fashion and panto features.
Warm, insightful, honest and full of personality — this show captures everything listeners love about Nancy.
