Chris Jericho has spent over three decades reinventing himself across professional wrestling, music, and media. From growing up in Winnipeg watching wrestling to fronting a rock band that now sells out venues worldwide, his career has been built on instinct, commitment, and a refusal to live in fear.In this conversation, we move beyond the highlight reel.Chris reflects on what reinvention really requires, why there’s no rulebook for longevity, and how confidence only works when you fully commit to it. We talk about the difference between special moments and routine performances, why you can’t “phone it in” - no matter the crowd size - and what it takes to keep showing up when the schedule is relentless, and the pressure is real.He opens up about choosing life not as a slogan, but as a daily decision: living without fear, being present, and staying curious long after success arrives. From iconic matches and unforgettable gigs to fatherhood, routine, and the quiet work done away from the spotlight, this is a grounded, late-night conversation about discipline, courage, and meaning.Whether you know Chris Jericho from the ring, the stage, or his storytelling, this episode is about the human behind the moments — and the mindset that keeps him moving forward.Go see Fozzy at SWG3 TV Studio, Glasgow, on Saturday, 14th February 2026

Tia Rey is a Scottish comedian and musician who uses storytelling to explore identity, self-expression, and what it means to be seen.

In this episode, we talk about how comedy entered Tia’s life, what humour has given her, and what it can quietly hide. We explore the difference between being visible and being understood, the pressure to explain yourself, and how finding your voice often happens in real time rather than all at once.

We also discuss creating spaces that didn’t exist before, navigating growth without certainty, and what success looks like when you’re still figuring things out.

Ron Stein is a walking contradiction. On paper, his resume looks like a victory lap: A Wall Street Strategist, a Corporate Fixer, and a Hollywood Producer for the 4x Oscar-nominated film The Kids Are All Right.But on this episode of Finding Me, we aren't looking at the accolades - we are looking at the cost of getting them.When you shift from finance to film sets to real estate, how do you hold onto who you are? Ron joins Kyle to deconstruct the "messy middle" of reinvention. We talk about the difference between running toward a passion and running away from a past life, and why saying "Yes" to your future requires a painful "No" to your comfort zone.In this episode, we cover:The Identity Pivot: How to change careers without losing your sense of self.Hollywood vs. Reality: What producing The Kids Are All Right taught Ron about ego and smoke & mirrors.The Victim Trap: How to catch yourself when you start feeling like life is happening to you.Mastering Doubt: Why fear might be a requirement, not a warning sign.Ron’s new book, Say YES! To Own Your Success is out now.Get the Book on AmazonThe Virtual Summit: Every book purchase includes a ticket to the "Say Yes Virtual Summit" on Feb 5, 2026

Angelo Sommers dives into a year of big changes, heartbreak, and the search for meaning.

We talk about navigating nihilism, finding clarity after life’s chaos, and why sometimes the only way forward is through. Angelo shares how revisiting Nietzsche, Frankl, and the philosophy that helped him shift from chasing an ultimate meaning to noticing the meaning that’s already all around us.

We explore the human struggle, the illusions we carry about ourselves, and the question that can change everything: “If nobody could see me, what would I be doing?” This is a conversation about being honest with yourself, unlearning the things that hold you back, and learning to treat yourself with the care and respect you deserve.

This episode is a journey.

Finnlay K is living two lives at once -

The producer embedded in the chaos, comedy, and culture of the UK's Biggest comedy podcast - Have A Word

And the artist quietly carving out a sound that’s entirely his own.

We dive into the truth behind both.

How a kid from Rhyl found himself shaping one of the biggest podcasts in the UK.

From jokes turned into lyrics… and lyrics into something real.

And how he’s finally stepping into the version of himself he’s been building for years.

This is Finnlay K’s evolution -

The shift from supporting the story to becoming it.

At sixteen, Sonna Rele stood in front of Universal executives with nothing but her guitar, her voice, and a dream — and they signed her on the spot.

From growing up surrounded by Indian classical music to being discovered by Ne-Yo through her “Music Mondays” covers, Sonna’s story is a masterclass in trusting your gift, letting go of control, and allowing the universe to guide you.

In this conversation, Sonna opens up about her roots, her connection with fans, the beauty and burden of vulnerability, and the spiritual journey behind her music.

This one’s for anyone who’s ever felt called to create, even when no one’s watching.

“I am your idea. One day you’ll look for me, and I’ll be gone.” — Sonna Rele

In this episode of Finding Me, I sit down with Trinidadian musician Kalpee — a boundary-pushing artist known for blending island soul, pop, and reggae into a sound that’s entirely his own.

Kalpee opens up about the stories behind his newest music, the experiences that have shaped him, and the journey of staying grounded while creating from a place of truth. From growing up in Trinidad to performing on incredible stages, this conversation explores what it really means to find yourself through sound, culture, and purpose.

In this episode, I sit down with Adult Leisure, alt-indie band whose debut album, The Things You Don’t Know Yet, blends dancefloor energy with heart-on-sleeve emotion.

We dive into the stories behind the record: growing up, loss, love, the pressure of youth, and the strange comfort of nostalgia. The band open up about their latest single “Boy Grows Old”, collaborating with The 1975 and Sam Fender’s John Waugh, and how their music became what they call “happy music for sad people.”

With over 250,000 streams and support from BBC Radio 6, The Line of Best Fit, and even a Made in Chelsea sync — Adult Leisure are quickly becoming one of the UK’s most exciting new voices.

This is a conversation about reflection, resilience, and the moments that shape who we become.
