Andy Trott is a self-improvement advocate and the founder of Plan to Elevate.

In this episode, Andy opens up about the year that changed everything: 2016, when his marriage ended, his father passed away, and his best friend died of a brain tumour — all within six months. From a career spent in high-pressure nuclear and oil & gas project management, surrounded by a culture of silent masculinity, Andy had zero tools to cope. That breaking point became his turning point.

We cover why self-improvement genuinely isn't for everyone, the danger of getting stuck in a "learning loop," why nostalgia can quietly trap your progress, and how men in particular are conditioned to bury pain until it explodes. Andy also shares his goal-setting framework, his thoughts on the workplace mental health crisis, and why — even now — he's still very much a work in progress.

The easiest way to get ahead of 80% of people is your ability to zero in on the task at hand. This episode will teach you why.

In this episode, I sit down with Chris Shingles — online health coach, dad of three, and specialist in peri and menopausal women — to unpack the journey that shaped him.

We go deep into:

• How becoming a father at 27 forced him to confront his health

• Building a fitness career from scratch (and the imposter syndrome that came with it)

• Divorce, losing his brother to mental health, and the silent spiral into alcohol

• Why men struggle to open up (and what actually helps)

• Why most women over 35 are stuck in dieting cycles — and what actually works long term

• The truth about quick fixes, weight loss jabs, and sustainable change

This is a raw conversation about responsibility, masculinity, grief, purpose, and what it really takes to rebuild when life hits hard.

In this episode, I’m joined by Lewis Potts for a raw conversation about responsibility, coaching, and the moments that force you to change.

Lewis shares how a heart condition, lockdown isolation, and years of drifting pushed him into personal development and ultimately into coaching. We dive into his journey from DJing and partying to losing 70kg, coaching clients, and completely redefining what real coaching actually is.

We talk about the difference between giving advice vs creating real behaviour change, the victim mindset holding people back, the truth about coaching qualifications, and why most people consume self-help but never implement it.

In this episode, we sit down with Harry Purdy to unpack the journey from being 23 stone, stuck in a cycle of drifting and numbing out, to running ultramarathons, building a coaching business, and creating the 100% Podcast.

We dive into the real turning points behind his transformation — the moment he realised he couldn’t run a mile, the breakdown that forced him to confront his mental health, and the habits that helped him rebuild his life from the inside out.

We talk about men’s mental health, intrusive thoughts, therapy, journaling, meditation, finding purpose, and why every man needs a passion project that gives life direction.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re just going through the motions, this conversation will challenge the way you think about change, growth, and what’s actually possible over the next 10 years of your life.

This conversation goes deep into:

• The psychological cost of combat

• What trauma actually feels like years later

• Why many veterans struggle to adapt to civilian life

• How discipline, reflection, responsibility, and purpose became the tools that saved him
