  • Episode 57-Abuse, Alcoholism & Dysfunction to Hope & Healing
    𝗔𝗯𝘂𝘀𝗲, 𝗔𝗹𝗰𝗼𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗺, & 𝗗𝘆𝘀𝗳𝘂𝗻𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗼 𝗛𝗼𝗽𝗲 & 𝗛𝗲𝗮𝗹𝗶𝗻𝗴

    🎙 In this week’s podcast interview, encounter how a young boy is confronted with years of living in a household with family abuse, alcoholism and dysfunctional parents.

    Persistent physical violence and disturbing imagery of dad dragging his pummelled mother across the floor sadly leave him mentally scarred and emotionally affected. The intense fear and feeling of helplessness make it incredibly difficult for him to comprehend how he was unable to assist his mother.

    Brought up not to talk about issues in the home prevents him from verbalising his pain and leading to bottling up his fears and anxieties for many years.

    Buckling down at school and embracing his love for learning really supports him to stay sane.


    💡 Witness the process which he lives through to heal from his childhood traumas - to successfully help others heal through their pain.

  • Episode 56 - Dubbed Quitter to Pioneering 'Body Type' Science
    🎙 In this week’s podcast interview, experience how an 8-year-old star soccer player starts noticing that his body is different to his peers. This is later amplified by social media and scientific images that he is confronted with showing bodies that don't reflect him.

    As Marc reaches puberty, he begins to grow more fat mass than muscle mass. He subsequently focuses on building muscle through weight lifting, taking supplements, and changing his diet - but yields no results. This sadly impacts negatively on his confidence and affects his mental health.

    Family members seek to comfort him by saying “obesity runs in the family” and medical professionals tell him that his BMI indicates that he is within the ‘normal’ weight range. Marc is also dubbed a loser and quitter by his beloved parents.

    💡Witness how he later decides to quit sports and discover answers to his burning question - “ 𝙃𝙤𝙬 𝙖𝙢 𝙄 𝙜𝙤𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙤 𝙗𝙚 𝙝𝙖𝙥𝙥𝙮 𝙬𝙞𝙩𝙝 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙗𝙤𝙙𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙄 𝙝𝙖𝙫𝙚”? - through carrying out Scientific Based Research on The Four Body Types.

    🎙 In this week’s podcast interview, experience an extraordinary story of a young boy brought up by his biological parents, who constantly reminded him that - he was a mistake, not worth it and would amount to nothing.

    Over the years, this impacted negatively on his self-confidence and made him feel incredibly unwanted, and unloved leading him to attempt suicide. Healing from childhood trauma was incredibly slow and painful to an extent that Mike was too afraid of confronting his childhood - so opted to block out the experiences.
