Sophia Harris joins me this week to talk about the intricacies of coaching and why a broader understanding of the human plight is essential for anyone working in the health, fitness and wellbeing space.

A candid conversation with @mulligainz_fitness on overcoming anxiety, embracing therapy, and the power of supportive relationships. We discuss why it's okay to change goals, adapt, and seek deeper value beyond societal pressures.

I really enjoyed this honest and open chat, which offered insights on balancing personal growth, professional ambitions, and redefining happiness.

Near-breaking points, reclaiming control, and the in-development production of his film, working with charities to address a growing issue.

We all have a role to play in the discussion, narrative and perpetuation of “ideals” that deepen insecurities that everyone, no matter what their gender, experiences.

This was such an insightful and thought-provoking discussion

I had the absolute pleasure of chatting with Dr Alan Flanagan this week delving into topics like political violence in American history, referencing past presidential assassination attempts and their little influence on election outcomes. We also discuss the current political polarisation, focusing on the Trump-Biden election dynamics.

We had an in-depth chat about the erosion of social cohesion and community belonging in contemporary society, exacerbated by social media's role in fostering ideological extremism.

• Thatcher to Trump: Political evolution and consequences

• Inclusivity in sports, particularly the complexities surrounding trans-athlete participation.

• The disconnect between ideological beliefs and practical policy implications

• Critiquing the progressive left's impact on broader social discourse, and a discussion on socioeconomic factors in public health, food poverty, and the ideological barriers to addressing health inequalities effectively.

Far removed from regular nutrition “chat”, we got into the weeds of topics often untouched

Paul discusses the physical and emotional challenges of trekking to Basecamp, coping with anxiety, navigating the impacts of altitude sickness and testosterone replacement therapy (TRT).

I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with Paul, as we also touched on the difficulty of dealing with suicidal thoughts and the societal apathy towards male mental health. There are some really important insights in understanding mental illness in this conversation and the pitfalls of letting labels define our identity.

We discuss the importance of setting challenging goals, embracing authentic experiences, leveraging practical tools (theory aside) and the ups and downs of self-improvement beyond self-masturbatory self-improvement.
