Mental health in the UK has been getting worse since COVID progressively. It's such a hard subject to talk about and i make sure to not step out with my lane here but i think it's important to help people bridge the gap between understanding mental health and getting help. That can be the hardest thing to do.

I also talk about the effect training and nutrition can have on the way your brain works and hopefully help you make some steps forward towards improving it.

This episode will explore how to challenge your mindset this year differently to any other year. The past few years you may have set intentions to achieve this, that and the next thing. But it may not have happened for one reason or another. Hopefully after listening to this you'll think differently.

In this week's episode of the podcast i sit down with Coach Kieran Sauboorah from North London. Kieran's experiences and learnings have created a very understanding, knowledgeable and down to earth guy.

I listened to Kieran speak a few months back about an accident he had back in February last year where he almost lost his life while climbing the Atlas mountains in Morocco. Listen to the episode to hear what happened and the journey back from this near death experience.
