KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • For my cross channel swim I had to put on weight to protect from the cold. Whilst it was a necessity for the goal I wanted to achieve, it wasn’t a healthy one. I was back in the world of not caring about my body and making the right decisions, I was having double hamburgers and stuff like that. Ever since that swim challenge, I’ve found it tough to take weight off. 
  • My half-hearted desire is that I was on medication for hypertension and one of the side effects was that the chemicals were bloating me and blowing me up. I’ve had my medication changed recently and I don’t feel like that anymore, though there’s always the chance things could change in weeks or months.
  • I don’t mean to judge people on their weight, but it happens when you look around and I’m trying to train myself out of it. But then I think, if that’s how my eyes recognise them, how do their eyes recognise me? Now there’s a body image issue. Because I have the awareness I have the ability to change it.

BEST MOMENTS
‘It’s a lot easier to put weight on than take it off.’
‘We need a full heart to fulfil any desire.’
‘There’s eating for the sake of eating, eating out of habit, eating to fuel emotions – which is probably the number one thing that I do.’

ABOUT THE HOST
Gavin Scott is a born entrepreneur with a passion for start up and scale up. He has over 20 years real estate experience in investment and development.

Gavin says: Over the years I have discovered that mindset is everything. Now, that might sound obvious, but it is! You see the number of awoken minds are very few in reality. Whilst acknowledging mindset is key it is absolutely different from utilising, influencing, impacting and effecting great change, for yourself, your loved ones, friends, colleagues and the wider public.

Why?

Like most of us I have had many ups and downs. I want to share the lessons learnt and promote a better environment for all, internally and externally!

How?

Through sharing my own experiences and hosting some fabulous individuals including some big household names to discuss key topics around mindset and the success formulas I hope the listener will become inspired to create space for change for betterment in their lives. I aim to inspire change by encouragement, not by force. I intend to inspire by education, not by regulation.
