On day 1768, I dive into the realities of conflict and arguments—why they happen, why it’s perfectly normal to face them, and most importantly, how to make sure they don’t wreak havoc in your personal or professional relationships.

In this episode, I share a simple but powerful approach to defusing conflict by focusing on the desired outcome rather than just “winning” an argument. I talk about lessons learnt from my own experiences, why resentment can linger long after an argument seems settled, and how a shift in perspective can help both parties feel heard and move towards a real resolution.

If you’re struggling with frequent disagreements—whether at home, with friends, or colleagues—this episode will give you practical steps to handle heated moments, ensure everyone gets their say, and move towards solutions without the toxic aftermath.

And don’t forget, my vlog is raising money for children’s charities through my attempt to run the circumference of the world barefoot, so every listen, like, and share helps save lives. Stay positive, stay happy, and let’s learn how to handle conflict a little bit better—together!

I’m diving into the unique effects of the UK’s spring clock change on my daily running routine. With the clocks moving forward an hour every spring, I share how this shift brings longer daylight, warmer temperatures, and a real psychological boost—especially for runners who, like me, often hit the roads in the evening. I reflect on the stark contrast between winter’s dark and dreary miles versus the vibrant, uplifting atmosphere spring delivers. Plus, I’ll discuss why this time of year inspires positivity, brings nature alive, and elevates both my mood and performance. Join me as I explore the cyclical nature of the seasons and the surprising ways even “bad” weather can make for unforgettable runs. Have thoughts or questions? Reach out—let’s keep the conversation going! And remember, this podcast is part of my fundraising journey to save children’s lives through the ultimate run vlogging challenge.

In today’s episode, I dive into the ever-relevant debate: is happiness truly a choice? Inspired by a heartfelt discussion with a friend in my café, I reflect on how life’s challenges—big or small—affect our happiness, and whether we have the power to influence the “ripple effect” of negative events. I share my personal journey with mindset, the importance of processing tough times, and practical ways we might shorten the impact these events have on our wellbeing. If you’ve ever felt stuck in a cycle of worry or wondered how to boost your happiness over time, this episode is for you. Plus, I talk about how staying positive ties into my ongoing barefoot ultramarathon for children’s charities. Join the conversation and let’s explore if happiness is something we can choose each day.

How often do we fall into the trap of doing things just for the sake of it, instead of thinking about how we do them? As I edge closer to my epic goal—running the distance of a lap around the world, barefoot, vlogging every single day—I’m learning that real impact is in how we show up for others, especially our children.

In this episode, inspired by a post-Mother’s Day reflection and the wisdom passed down from my late Nan, I open up about the challenges (and humour!) of parenting teenagers. I share why simply ticking boxes isn’t enough, why the little gestures matter, and how YOU can help me hit £1 million for children’s charities with the smallest action TODAY.

Are you a parent navigating teenage mood swings, or just someone who wants to make a real difference in the world? This episode is for you. Let’s transform how together – and save lives in the process.

I’m opening up about the tough realities of marathon preparation when you’re four weeks away from race day and nursing a niggling injury.

This episode is for every runner debating whether to push through or pull back, and for anyone interested in the psychological rollercoaster of chasing big goals while managing setbacks.

In today’s episode, I share my thoughts and personal experiences on the true importance of carving out quality time with those closest to us, even amidst our busiest days. I talk about how easy it is to let everyday busyness take over, and how, despite spending lots of “regular” time with our families, it’s the out-of-the-ordinary moments—like the concert I’m taking my 10-year-old to tonight—that really become lasting memories. I reflect on what makes time “quality”, why it matters so much, and simple ways you can create special moments with your loved ones without it being extravagant or costly. Remember: it’s about the effort and intention, not the expense. Hope you find this episode useful and feel inspired to make a little extra time for those who matter most.
