What is Spirituality? Wake up, become truly self-aware, & live your truth | The most powerful journey I’ve been on

Episode 13

Thursday, October 3, 2024 • Duration 31:30

What is spirituality?

18 months ago I’d never really heard the term, it hadn’t crossed my radar, and if it had, I would have assumed it was something to do with religion or yoga or just for the uber ‘woo woo’ crowd. But’ I’ve been cracked open like a nut and sold down the river, and it’s ended up being one of the most rewarding journeys I’ve ever been on, and continues to be on.

So what is spirituality? What does it mean? Why should you care?

I’ll be honest, I’m still figuring it all out, but I’ve experienced enough now to share the early part of my journey, and how it has transformed my state of being, my experience of life, and what I now see.

Alcohol is toxic and a depressant, yet its the #1 drug out there - so why do we drink it?

Episode 12

Thursday, September 26, 2024 • Duration 27:49

In the UK, 82% of adults drink alcohol, 48% of adults drink once per week, yet it is widely known as a toxin to the body on many levels, and it’s primary action is a depressant. 5% of all deaths worldwide are linked to alcohol, with alcohol related issues rising significantly since the pandemic.

But, alcohol is a cultural and societal norm, it's everywhere and it’s totally normal to drink it, more normal than any other drug in circulation. It’s used to enjoy yourself, unwind, relieve stress, and escape your problems.

So the question is, how much is too much, is one drink ok, or are we missing its true effects not just on our physical health, but on our mental health. And if you exercise and drink, is it ok, or holding you back?

I’ve been particularly interested in this since going alcohol free. It’s been 6 months now, and in this podcast I’ll share my experience, some physiological statistics around alcohol use, how I accidently started this experiment, and my argument for a life without alcohol. With a special guest segment, Ruari Fairbairns from ‘One Year No Beer’.

As ever, come to this show with an open mind….

Why are men so depressed, frustrated and angry? Men's Mental Health Special Pt 1

Episode 3

Thursday, July 25, 2024 • Duration 29:45

Why are men so depressed, frustrated and angry?

So many men struggle with feeling disconnected, low, maybe even depressed, and far removed from their sense of purpose, often facing overwhelm, sadness and isolation. Life can then feel flat, and modern societal pressures only add to this burden. You or your partner might feel stuck and unsure of where to start, and the term ‘crisis of masculinity’ just seems to ring a bell that strikes a chord in us, but one where no music seems to play.

This show, and this 3 part series, is a journey of understanding male mental health. Men, like everyone else, need to grow, evolve, and connect with their true selves. Society often expects men to suppress emotions and prioritise logic over feelings, leading to profound unhappiness and mental health struggles. This is where I will argue that there is NO crisis of masculinity.

In this episode, we look to uncover the reasons behind the high rates of depression among men. Could it be a crisis in masculinity, societal changes or physiological factors like declining testosterone levels, increased obesity, and sedentary lifestyles? Or is there much more to this conversation than meets the eye.

This episode isn't just about understanding the problem; it's about finding solutions.

By the end of this episode you'll understand the factors contributing to healthy male mental health, which of course links to our physical health, and have practical strategies to combat it.

Men, it's time to challenge what you know and take steps towards a healthier, happier life.

Listen to this if you’re bored with your life - The 8 Step battle plan to live an AWESOME life

Episode 2

Thursday, July 18, 2024 • Duration 31:03

So many people are bored with their life. Life feels the same. Life feels flat. Life feels like it's just not moving in the way you want it to. You might even be feeling really stuck, and have no idea where to start.

This is the journey of the Awesome Human. You are a human, and we must evolve, we must grow, we must follow our hearts in all that we do. We live in a world where most people are leading with logic and their brain, wrapped in the expectations of their parents, friends, and the world at large. This leads to unhappiness over time, because we are not connected to our truth. We are not honouring WHO we are.

In this show I get deep, fast, and you need to be ready to challenge everything you know to be true. Otherwise you will never set yourself free. But I’ll end by giving you an 8 step battle plan on how to reignite the fire in all areas of your life.

The 8 Step battle plan:

Get rid of any negative or unsupportive people in your life, or at least learn how to distance yourself from them so their impact in minimal
Start to spend more time in silence, without the noise of social media, of podcasts, of external education. It's time to start to develop yourself from the inside out, not from the outside in, you can only listen to your truth, by listening to it. Watch less TV. Drive in silence more. Go on walks without your phone. Spend time meditating. Start to truly connect to yourself.
Get all of your physiological baselines catered for, which was the theme of my last show. Make sure you are sleeping well, eating well and moving well so you can set yourself to feeling good.
Remove anything that you rely on as a crutch. Remove alcohol. Remove drugs. Reduce your caffeine intake if you know it's excessive. Remove porn. Anything you lean on for self-care, we need to spend time without it to really lean into the uncomfort, and start to deal with it, rather than papering over it.
Write down what you dislike in your life right now, and be brave and honest. That might be your job, it might even be your partner. Honour that feeling, then write next to it the action that would lead to the solution. This stuff is going to need you to be brave, develop some long term strategies, and start to take action.

State | Story | Strategy - Why Physiology is more powerful than psychology

Episode 1

Thursday, July 11, 2024 • Duration 27:40

In the world of high performance we discuss mindset a lot. Have a positive attitude. Think positively, mindset is everything. All phrases you have heard a lot. But what if we are getting the loop of optimisation wrong? I have a theory, that is also shared by great minds such as Tim Ferris, in that we should first focus on our physiological state, which then drives our internal story (or at least puts it on a positive trajectory), which then informs a healthy view over the strategy we need to take.

This is where the State, Story, Strategy theory comes in.

Let’s optimise our physical state, which can then drive a health story, in which we can then build a strategy around. But how do we do this practically, and what does that look like? Join me, listen in.

Is caffeine a problem? The dark side of this stimulant - Prediction 1 of 5 for my 2024/2025 Health Trends

Episode 11

Thursday, September 19, 2024 • Duration 22:09

Caffeine is the world's most popular drug, but is it serving us in the way we use it? I’ve gone caffeine free several times, so I’ve tested this a lot, and I’ve now found a sweet spot in my life, which is still very low in caffeine.

In this show I’ll explore why I think caffeine has a dark side, how it could be negatively affecting your health optimisation efforts, its relationship with stress, why people with heart issues get told to cut down, what's really the issue, what the different types of energy are, and more.
