Today’s guest is Matt Peacock, an incredibly successful fitness trainer who’s also a coach, mentor and consultant to multiple fitness professionals.
The founder of We Are Optimise, a male-only human optimisation programme, Matt is the Scottish coach of all coaches. If there ever was a pyramid of Personal Trainers, Matt stands on top, sharing eloquent truths about physical and mental optimisation while dispelling common myths.
When he takes on new business clients, Matt performs what he calls a Fitness Business MOT. “You can’t fix problems that you don’t know exist”, he says. One of those problems, he might tell you, is that you work too much. So you’ve guessed it, Matt is a big believer in our Anti Hustle movement. We love to see him take time for a mid-day sea swim, or a play in the garden with his son.
But Matt is also a big fan of Gary Vaynerchuk, who could very well be single-handedly responsible for Hustle Culture. So we may disagree on some points. Or at least challenge each other’s points of view - which we look forward to in this podcast.
One thing’s for sure though, Matt is a bright light of positivity for so many people. He’s created an army of personal fans and followers, and by listening to him speak, I’m sure you’ll see why.
We hope you enjoy this inspiring episode, hosted by Harriet Osborne and Joe Welstead.
