One For The Road

Simon Maguire


Listen Later

After a long break we are finally back with a new season of One For The Road, Join me to kick off this latest season with Simon Maguire.

Simon’s journey with alcohol started on the day of his mother’s passing as a 15-year-old boy. Drawn to alcohol, food and later codeine Simon built up a series of addictive habits as a coping mechanism in all areas of his life. By the time he had reached 39 he weighed 22 stone on the scales and had a growing list of health problems. Struck by a passing comment from a colleague Simon knew he had to make a change for the sake of his family and his self-worth. Simon’s journey from this day to 2 years later saw him lose 9 stone, kick the addictions, and complete multiple Ironman events for charity. Recognising he was inspiring those around him, Simon has gone on to be a keynote speaker and aspiring author. Delivering his talk on how to reach for your goals and complete them, Simon is now empowering people across the UK.
