S2E13 Daniel Granger - From Body Fixers to Breakdown: The Pain Behind the Persona

Saison 2 · Épisode 13

mardi 1 juillet 2025 • Durée 01:04:31

Daniel Granger looked like he had it all.

A successful hairdresser. A public figure. TV appearances. A big personality. But behind the scenes? He was exhausted. Addicted. Broken.

In this raw and honest episode, Dan sits down with me to share the truth behind the mask. From childhood trauma and addiction to homelessness, suicide attempts and deep-rooted mistrust of men, this is a story about surviving, and eventually healing.

Dan talks about:

Growing up in chaos and losing his dad at 8
Finding safety in feminine spaces after being abused by the men in his life
How fatherhood gave him purpose—but didn’t fix the pain
What it really took to feel safe in his own skin: retreats, rituals, boxing, plant medicine
And why he now shows up for other men the way he always wished someone had shown up for him

This isn’t a story about fame or business. It’s a story about what it takes to become the man you never had.

Saison 2 · Épisode 12

mardi 17 juin 2025 • Durée 46:05

Diego Sanchez was one of the top male models in the world — fronting major campaigns and living a life of global travel, status, and success.

But at 29, something cracked.

In this episode, I sit down with Diego to talk about the quiet breakdown that happened behind the success… and the journey that followed.

From the catwalks of the fashion world to the forests of Uruguay, Diego now works as a somatic therapist and retreat leader helping others reconnect with their bodies and nervous systems.

We explore:

Letting go of ego and external validation
What happens when the body says no
The life-changing moment Diego first discovered shiatsu

S2E11: Keith McGuinnes - When ‘Healthy’ Is Just Another Mask

Saison 2 · Épisode 11

mardi 3 juin 2025 • Durée 01:02:01

The diagnosis that changed everything: Keith McGuinnes on cancer, masculinity, and the power of receiving

What happens when a fit, healthy yoga teacher steeped in Eastern practices, meditation and spiritual growth is suddenly diagnosed with cancer?

In this episode, I sit down with Keith McGuinnes, founder of Awaken Intimacy and co-founder of The Open Institute, to explore how a life-threatening illness forced him to stop pushing, start receiving, and finally open to the deeper lessons of intimacy, vulnerability and connection.

We talk about:

The shock of receiving a cancer diagnosis at 40
Why he chose chemotherapy (even as a holistic health practitioner)
How the experience broke his lone wolf mentality
The power of receiving love
What men are missing when they stay stuck in hyper-masculinity
His work today helping men and couples reclaim intimacy, polarity and presence

This is a raw, real and powerful conversation about grief, grace, and growing up.

S2E10: Emmet Byrne - Why Men's Health is Failing

Saison 2 · Épisode 10

mardi 20 mai 2025 • Durée 54:49

Why are so many men exhausted, disconnected, and running on empty — even when they look like they’ve got it all together?

In this episode, I sit down with Dr Emmet Byrne - a former Ireland rugby international turned men’s health doctor - to unpack what’s really going wrong with modern masculinity, medicine, and mental health.

We explore:

Why the medical system is failing men
The truth about testosterone decline (and why TRT isn’t a quick fix)
The link between movement, strength, and emotional health
Why we’ve normalised feeling average — and how to break out of it
How to spot the signs you’re treating symptoms, not solving the root

From elite sport to holistic medicine, Emmet’s journey is proof that reinvention is possible, and necessary.

A must-listen for any man who wants to feel strong again. On the inside, and out.

S2E9: Shaun Edwards - The Kind Warrior

Saison 2 · Épisode 9

mardi 6 mai 2025 • Durée 01:04:41

Fresh off France’s Six Nations win, I sat down with my old mate Shaun Edwards for a rare, wide-ranging conversation.

This isn’t just an interview — it’s two lads from Wigan catching up after decades walking very different, but strangely parallel paths. Both of us came up through rugby, through hard graft and old-school values. But over time, we’ve both had to evolve. As coaches. As leaders. As men.

We talked about it all, from the early days and the systems that changed the game, to fear, fatherhood, grief, and what it means to lead with heart, not just tactics.

Shaun opened up in a way I don’t think many have heard before. And for me, this episode felt special.

We get into:
Why Shaun hates losing more than he loves winning
What fear can teach you and where it can fuck you
How he sees leadership and masculinity now
The shift from hardness to softness
Coaching at the highest level, and what really drives performance

If you’re interested in what makes a great coach, a great team, or just a good man, this one’s worth a listen.

The Making of a Competitor

Growing up in Wigan, and early life lessons from his dad
Why grief became a driving force
The difference between rugby league and union — and what it taught him

Coaching with Fire

The early years at Wasps and Wales
Lessons from working with Gatland, Farrell and co
What still motivates him after all these years

A Brother Beyond Rugby

The early days of my friendship with Shaun
What we’ve learned from each other and where our paths crossed again
The moment he started embracing softness

Leadership that Lasts

What players really need from a coach today
The evolution of Shaun’s leadership style

S2E8: Jeremy Bettle - Why Men Burn Out at the Top

Saison 2 · Épisode 8

mardi 22 avril 2025 • Durée 01:12:54

From the outside, Jeremy Bettle had it all — a high-profile career in elite sport, working with some of the world’s most successful athletes and organisations. But behind the scenes, he was running on empty.

In this episode, Jeremy shares the quiet crisis that brought him to a breaking point, and the path he took to rebuild a life rooted in presence, truth, and vitality.

We talk about:

The cost of performing and pushing for too long
Why success without meaning leads to burnout
Letting go of identity and walking into the unknown
The medicine in movement, men’s work, and Peru
What it means to build a life from the inside out

This is a conversation about what happens when men stop chasing and start feeling — and the freedom that follows.

The Build-up to Burnout

Jeremy’s rise through elite sport and performance coaching
The moment he realised success wasn’t enough
How professional ambition can become emotional suppression

Breaking the Pattern

The physical and emotional signals he could no longer ignore
Walking away from what looked like a dream job
The fear and freedom of not knowing what’s next

Reconnection and Recovery

Why movement, breathwork and brotherhood became vital
Insights from ICONIC and the Peru men’s retreat
Letting go of roles, pressure, and performance

A New Way of Living

Learning to listen to the body
Rebuilding from purpose, not pressure
What high performers need to hear — and unlearn

S2E7: Martin Bone - Why Men Must Learn To Move

Saison 2 · Épisode 7

mercredi 9 avril 2025 • Durée 01:15:17

Movement is more than just physical. It’s emotional. Energetic. Transformational.

In this episode, I’m joined by my good friend and co-facilitator of the ICONIC program, Martin Bone. We explore the deeper meaning of movement and dance, not as performance, but as a powerful doorway back into the body.

For many men, especially those raised in the UK and Ireland, movement became linear - lifting weights, pushing harder, always doing. But in that, freedom, expression, and spontaneity got lost.

We talk about how reclaiming movement helped us both heal old wounds, reconnect with our emotions, and become better leaders, fathers, partners, and men.

This conversation is about breaking the stigma, getting over yourself, and remembering the body knows what to do... if you let it!

Dance as a Doorway Back to the Body

Why most men’s breakthroughs come through the body, not the mind
Creating safe spaces where men can move, feel, express without being judged

How to Start

S2E6: Scott Ford - The Secret to Playing in the Zone

Saison 2 · Épisode 6

mardi 25 mars 2025 • Durée 01:10:29

Athletes talk about it like it’s magic. That moment when everything slows down, the game feels effortless, and they’re completely in the zone.

But what if flow state wasn’t random? What if you could access it on demand?

I sit down with Scott Ford—author, coach, and a pioneer in non-dual awareness in sport. He’s spent over 40 years teaching athletes how to enter and sustain flow states intentionally, rather than just hoping it happens.

What is Flow State in Sport?

Why athletes describe being in the zone as effortless, timeless, and automatic
The difference between flow happening by accident vs. accessing it on demand
The key shift in focus and awareness that changes everything

How to Train for Flow

Why “watching the ball” might actually be limiting your reactions
The soft focus technique that allows you to see and react faster
How to stop overthinking and let your body’s intelligence take over

Beyond Competition: The Non-Dual Approach

Why traditional competition is dualistic (me vs. you) and how that affects performance
How non-dual awareness allows athletes to co-create the game with their opponents
Why playing in flow isn’t just about winning—it’s about playing at your highest level

Practical Applications for Coaches and Athletes

How tennis, rugby, and even Navy SEALs have applied Scott’s work
Simple drills to train focus, presence, and reaction time
Why flow training is the next evolution in coaching and performance
