One Small Change

On today's show, we have Richard Biedul (@richardbiedul) – superstar male model, fashion designer, and art director – and considered by many, as one of the most influential names in menswear for our generation.

Richard is one of the most prominent faces at men’s fashion weeks across the world, he has walked and shot for the biggest brands around including Armani, Ralph Lauren, and Paul Smith, to name just a few.

What I’ve always found most fascinating about Rich is that he started his career as a solicitor before moving into fashion. Rich breaks the mold in so many ways and is an incredibly passionate and principled individual and has become a good friend over the last few years we have known each other.

I absolutely loved this chat with Rich we covered a super range of topics on everything from making big life decisions, through his feelings around what he calls “toxic masculinity” and how that impacts the mental health of men especially in 2021. We also dive into the shocking statistics around the devastating impact that fast fashion has on the environment and what we as consumers can do to make a difference

On today’s show, we have the incredible Dan Murray Serter (@danmurrayserter), Serial entrepreneur (co-founder of brain care company Heights (@yourheights)), host of the UK’S top business podcast secret leaders (@secretleader) and, I don’t exaggerate when I say this, one of the most inspirational people I know. Over the last 10 months, Dan has become a friend, mentor, and fellow peloton enthusiast - so I’m really excited to share his insight with all of our listeners today.

In this episode, we have a wide-ranging discussion with Dan on his experiences as a start-up entrepreneur, how his relationship with failure has changed over time, and how a focus on nutrition helped him to not only solve his insomnia and improve his mental health but also lead to him creating an incredibly successful startup. Dan is incredibly honest about his struggles with mental health and gives fantastic practical advice on how we can all look after the most important organ in our body – our brains!!

My guest this week is Youtube sensation, model, presenter, and author Jim Chapman. Jim has spent the last 10 years in the spotlight rising to fame as part of the Brit Crew on youtube with millions of followers and hundreds of millions of views. He has gone on to build an incredibly successful, multi-faceted career; modeling for top brands such as Hugo Boss and D&G as well as becoming a popular TV presenter and author of his frequent articles in British GQ as well as his own book 147 things.

In this episode, Jim talks very openly about his experiences in the limelight, how he deals with negativity and social media trolls. He also talks incredibly bravely about difficult times in his childhood, the impact it’s had on him in adulthood and the value of therapy in creating a balanced and successful life.
