In this episode of the Generation Elevation podcast, Martin MacDonald shares his journey from being a clinical performance nutritionist to the founder of Mac Nutrition Uni. 

He discusses the evolution of his career, the importance of evidence-based nutrition, and the philosophical insights he has gained along the way. Martin also delves into the challenges of masculinity, the impact of fatherhood on his personal philosophy, and the significance of enjoying the journey rather than focusing solely on the destination. 

He addresses societal norms and stigmas, particularly around men's discussions of vulnerability and emotional topics, and emphasises the importance of resilience in the face of criticism. 

In this conversation, we delve into the complexities surrounding sexuality, guilt, and the importance of living authentically. We discuss the stigma associated with sex, the subconscious mind's role in attracting experiences, and the journey towards self-discovery. 

The dialogue also explores non-monogamous relationships, emphasising the significance of communication in fostering fulfilling connections. Ultimately, the conversation encourages listeners to embrace open discussions about sexuality and personal growth.
