"Health" what is it?! these days this word is probably the most confused, manipulated, and misunderstood the meaning and because of this, I believe that it is actually detrimental to people's wellbeing!

The meaning of what Healthy is a lot simpler than people think, the problem we have in society today, is that no one really gets a true insight into how to optimise their health well-being or fitness which leads to confusion, people being manipulated around it for the wrong reasons - mainly for profit! ultimately leading to people finding out for themselves.

There needs to be more clarity around the basics of Health, how to improve it and unfortunately, our education system and leadership are not doing enough!

I explain a bit more about this in this episode

How do you feel when you Compromise on your principles?

This is a common problem with people and it causes a lot of problems with Mental Health

Society can put pressure on people to 'Go along to get along' and Worrying about other peoples opinions which is a route of insecurity

When we are solid in our Principles Values and Beliefs and do not Compromise these in order to please someone else it solidifies Happiness Inner Strength and Self Confidence

The Self Development project is back stronger and more purposeful than ever

I started this a year ago with the Aim to put out as much value and information about Improving your Health Self Awareness and Encouraging Growth Mindset

I want to Improve the Culture around this as there is a lot of garbage online and ultimately All of the Above will Improve Mental Health which is the overall mission!

My aim now is to still keep this focus however I want to encourage more Awareness around standing up to the current Narrative around Health and also how we are being manipulated

Our Leadership is destroying the Mental Health of people by the Confusion it is putting within the public which is making Society weaker and destroying our Country and the future of our generation.

Self Development is a great thing that everyone needs to do in order to Grow, Optmise their life, health, wellbeing, and overall live a fulfilled life.

The Problem is, there is a huge market in Self Development, consisting of a Plethora of Information, Coaches, Courses, and Google information, some of it is good however a lot of its designed to take your money and not do anything more than leave you where you started and out of pocket.

In this episode, I discuss this and also a little more on why this podcast is about weeding this stuff out

Nobody is going to believe in you until after you do what you set out to do!

Stop wasting time and energy on convincing people and instead into building a life that speaks for itself.

You dont need anyones belief, just execute on the work. If you execute on the work you'll become a believer out of everyone, most Importantly yourself...because the results will be there!

The above was a great quote I see today, I explain more on this in more detail in this episode!

I think this is a really important listen and detail to understand as it can be easy to lack self belief and seek validation from others which can limit our upside

"I don't Know , I need Help" probably one of the most important words anyone can ask

I heard this on a podcast recently and it really resonated and I had to speak on this.

Sometimes asking for help or being uncertain causes us fear uncertainty which can hold back from taking a step forward, this can be through fear, ego or sometimes your worried about what others might say.

The thing is asking for help is a Strength, it doesnt show weakness, and sometimes the hardest thing to do is to have the courage to ask for help and speak out, it can be the step that helps you to move forward

In this episode I speak about why it is important to find that 'Flow' in your life of being consistent with Taking time for yourself and making sure that 'Life Getting in the Way' isnt a feasible excuse 

Sometimes we put a lot of effort in to Our Job, our family or this or that and we neglect the most important person! 

I used to think life could get in the way until I changed my mindset and realised that I was the one to blame! I speak about this more in this episode

Great to have Laura Martin on the show, Laura has a real neiche in helping people with their Gut, and goes a lot deeper with helping those Improving their lifestyle, Overcoming stress, Anxiety and IBS related issues.

Laura's Passion comes from overcoming an Eating disorder, which invigorated her to learn more about Nutrition and all things related to how people overcome stress related disorders relating to the Gut

Food is very powerful and only has to be simple, however it can be very overcomplicated, especially with a lot of Poor advice and Monetisation which can lead people down a wrong path.

We went into all things Nutrition, Eating disorders, Stress and so so much more! It was a fun conversation and Laura has a great energy!

Great to have good friend Ashely as a guest on the show, Ashely is a Spiritual reader/Medium with a very Sincere and Positive way of Helping and guiding people using her Unique Spiritual Traits.

I've worked myself with Ashley, and I can honestly say that she has helped me in a verity of different circumstances that I needed guidance, that I may not have got from a friend, relative or even a counsellor.

What I love about Spirituality is that it is a very Practical and in now way just a 'Belief' a Cult or a Religion.

Basically it is understanding our 'Energy' our 'Aura', everyone we meet has an energy about them, and we are either attracted to this or not, and when you grasp this is, amazing to see and understand how useful it is to learn about ourselves and most importantly become better of who we are.
