Bouncing Back with James Middleton

In this episode I discuss the power of action, why intention is nothing without it, handling boredom, alive time vs dead time and why the biggest poison in us is regret. 

I talk about the benefits of being single and why it can be really valuable to finding the right person for you. I also discuss relationships, attachment and some of the things necessary to build a good relationship. This episode finishes with the topic of sex – the benefits, its importance but also things to be mindful of around it.

Everything we do in life is about priorities. Fixing them to not only benefit us but also serve us well is easier said than done however. In this episode I explore the real impact our priorities have and how the choices we make affect our life more than you may ever know.

This episode isn't some wishy-washy bullshit trying to answer this question. Instead, I take you through my own thoughts on some fundamentals that I believe contribute to having a meaningful life, from practising gratitude all the way to trying to care less about things that happen to us. 

I discuss why understanding our ego and how to use it effectively can be so beneficial. I also delve into the power of being open and vulnerable and why, in particular men, need to embrace it more. 

On this episode I discuss why the journey is far more important than the destination. I also tap into the benefits of having a growth mindset, focusing on building good systems and what you want vs who you become. 

In this episode I talk about why challenges, discomfort, self-discipline and doing the hard things are so important for our personal growth.

An introduction to the podcast: I talk about my journey so far from downing pints of beer naked at university to becoming a global fitness coach running a successful business and why I've started this podcast.
