June 09, 2024 Episode 17 | @Owen_Heard | "I Hate The Idea Of Mediocrity..."
We've spoken to faces of the past and present of British track and field.

Today, we're checking in with someone who I'm tipping to be the FUTURE.

Owen Heard, a future Loughborough Alumni who qualified for the Commonwealth games in 2022. A young man who, as a hyperactive 8 year old, now see's himself defying gravity day in day out striving for new heights (pun intended) both in his sporting and personal life.

We reflect on his junior career, the impact on family dynamics as a high performing young athlete and how he applies a principled mindset to every fibre of his being...

May 26, 2024 Episode 16 | Melissa 'No Mess' Mullins | "I Want To Be A UFC Athlete, Not A UFC Fighter..."
The human psyche has an underlying instinct for war, battle and blood. A barbaric thirst that can only be quenched by watching two people inflict pain on one another. Whether it be in the colosseum of Rome, the fields of medieval Europe or in modern times; The Octagon. All for the cause of "entertainment".
Episode 16 belongs to one of those select warriors; Melissa 'No Mess' Mullins who signed her professional contract with the UFC in the summer of 2023 becoming the first British woman to win her debut. The following episode gives us an insight into the psyche of one of the chosen few in this world who can refer to themselves as a 'fighter'

May 12, 2024 Episode 15 | @Sanchezjeremiah_ | "Everything For A Reason, Sometimes A Season, Sometimes For Life..."
BLESSINGS UPON BLESSINGS!
That's the theme of this episode.
In an attempt to sit with some of the greats in their chosen field we can often forget that those people exist in our immediate circle.
So come meet my big bro Sanchez. When I tell you lot this episode felt like therapy...kicking the sh*ts with my boy talking professional excellence, ADHD, Dyslexia, Anime and Mental Health.
There are themes of suicide discussed within this episode.
Blessings...

April 28, 2024 Episode 14 | Amelia Strickler | "I Know What It Means To Be A Woman..."
At least once in each of our lifetime’s, what we as indviduals identify as the RIGHT thing, can result in us having to do the HARD thing.
Eye’s are everywhere, everyone has an opinion, and if your values are not what the status quo desires or comes to expect; voices can often go unheard under the volume of those criticising them. Voices that MUST be heard. After all, freedom of speech is one of the principals we are fortunate to live by in democracy’s.
On the 23rd of January 2023 Amelia chose to do the hard thing and speak up on the disadvantages women would face due to transgender athletes competing in the female category.
This is an interview of reflection, transparency and clarity on the journey for standing on what one believes in...

Mark Findlay. A name synonymous in British track & field who has built a business in performance coaching having worked with the likes of NBA's J. R. Smith, and the greats within the UK's music scene with legends such as Kano, Bashy and the queen of content Zeze Mills on his books.

November 27, 2022 Episode 10 | @ParisJadex | "OnlyFans Has Ruined The Glamour Industry..."
Episode 10 we're closing this year out with a BANG.
OnlyFans has taken the culture by STORM. A platform developed for creators to cut out the middle men in the form of management, music labels and business executives...where the content creator can connect directly with their core fans and profit financially from the subscription based service has now become the home of x-rated content, societal criticism, stereotypes and negative media.
So...in an attempt to capture the voice and lived experience of someone on the platform, I reached out to the BEAUTIFUL @Parisjadex; Glamour Model, Calender Girl & Twitch Streamer, Paris took me through her experience as a model within the glamour industry, describing the fall of the "pin up" models, TV appearances, her streaming career and of COURSE the impact that infamous 'Linktree' bio has had on her personal life as well as her social media presence...
