  • Luke Rowe

    A bonus episode of Headstrong this week with professional cyclist and Road Race captain Luke Rowe. We chat about the gruelling days he has had on a bike, and the resilient mindset required of such an athlete. Luke is a real talent on the bike, and a leader for his team. Luke is most certainly headstrong!

    Olympic medals are hard to come by. You have to dedicate large parts of your life to the sport to achieve such a feat. That is exactly what Becky has done.

  • Ash Dykes

    Extreme explorer Ash Dykes and I sat down to talk about all his crazy adventures, including his latest: walking the length of the Yangtze River, which took over a year...


    I knew I had to speak to Ash on the podcast to understand how the human mind is capable of taking on such impressive challenges. We talked about resilience, self-doubt and the power to battle through the toughest of terrains to achieve your goals.

  • David Millar

    David Millar has had a turbulent cycling career, being banned for taking PEDs. We sat down to chat about how these experiences of illegal drug taking left David mentally, and how it affected both him, his family and friends. This was an incredibly eye opening conversation, revealing significant truths about drug taking within the peleton, and the hard work David now does to keep cycling clean.

  • Belle Hassan

    Former Love Islander Belle Hassan joined me on Headstrong to talk about growing up with a famous Dad, and what that experience was like. It did not rub off on her though, and was never that interested in the spotlight. During Belle's teenage years, she had an experience with an ex that led to self-harming, because she blamed herself for their relationship breakdown. In reality, there were plenty of things going on, which we talk about, and now she understands that she was a victim of gaslighting and manipulation, but does not blame anyone. This is a really deep, honest conversation, and I hope you enjoy listening to the deep and honest words of Belle Hassan.

  • James Bracey

    My first bonus episode of this 7th series is with England and Gloucestershire Cricketer James Bracey. James was given the opportunity to represent the England Test team against New Zealand in the Summer of 2021, but unfortunately had a pretty tough time on and off the field. The media treated him poorly, as did the public, and it affected James mentally. I talked to James about his experiences on and off the field, and how he navigated this period of his life.
