In today's episode, I'm basically waffling about how sometimes we end up doing things for reasons we can't really explain if we stop and think about it. I guess it's scary how easy it is to get caught up and stuck on a path that was meant to be temporary!

I hope you enjoy the podcast, don't forget you can find the audio version anywhere that you normally listen, Spotify, Apple podcasts etc but here's a direct link if you're new to 'pods'

In this episode of the Real Torque podcast, I'm joined once again by David Gott of the Lovely Car Company and the Car Dealer Pro Podcast. Since our last chat, Dave has started his own YouTube channel 'Car Dealer Pro' which has already proved incredibly popular, amassing over 2000 subscribers in just a couple of months!

We chew the fat about what's been happening in our business, how January has been and what's next on the horizon for both of us.

In today's episode, I have a bit of a ramble and a moan about how the year hasn't started great for me and how it's affected my mental health.

This served as a bit of a vent for me but also I wanted to share the fact that I have suffered with anxiety for years and still managed to be successful.  So if you do too, you are not alone! 

If you want to hear how I manage my anxieties and stress as veteran of it, then do let me know!
