41 min - Superhero #104 - Crohn's Social Media Life and Alopecia | James Morrell
Hello! Welcome back as I welcome actor and viral TikTok creator James Morrell.
I have been following James for a while, and he has been through an incredibly powerful journey.
One of a questioned identity, masculinity too at its depths.
Living daily with Crohn's is a challenge James shared with millions of other incredible people on this earth.
Its a physical disease, one that presents itself behind the scenes, but what about alopecia?
Well for James this came out of the blue, and his story and content has inspired lots of men to be able to be raw and natural on social media.
To be able to show emotion without a fear of judgement.
We discuss this, how this story also led to other opportunities in his acting career and well as how has his mindset changed now?
What has he learnt from this?
Another amazing chat that I hope you truly enjoy..

49 min - Superhero #100 - Money And Titles Mean Nothing Against Health - Burning Out Made Me Unstoppable | Rebecca Day
In pursuit of a career, sometimes we have to make decisions that will affect more than just our role. Our life, our health are all at play but its a decision based on weighing up the options.
Sometimes getting a promotion get means spending less time with your family.
Changing jobs can mean a lot of extra stress and responsibility.
But that is always weighed up against the pressure to earn a wage and pay those bills.
So often its this pressure that can influence a decision, for the fear of not succeeding, or putting others close to you at risk.
But what happens if the changes you make are based solely around you and your health.
What if the job you are in is not what you want to be in.
What if the job you will love the most will take a huge leap of faith?
What if staying where you are risks your health declining?
Well its time to find out with my fabulous guest Rebecca Day, because she did exactly this.
Rebecca is now a Women's Leadership Coach and sit back and relax as we discuss her journey thus far.

39 min - Superhero #99 - Ditching The Label And Embracing Neurodiversity | Tamzin Reid - World Class Coach
Today I spend some time with World Class Gymnastics and Trampoline Coach Tamzin Reid.
To get to that level takes time, dedication and consistency, not to mention navigating several neurodiversities.
What motivated Tamzin?
Tamzins story in her own words:
''I started my journey after my son was born. As a mum I thought that I was no good at anything and most probably couldn’t learn anything new. My son has severe ADHD. He was not easy in any way, home school etc.He went to a school friend’s trampoline birthday party. He did so well he started lessons and although the coach was very nice, there was not a lot of real learning going on.
I thought to myself, you are already a British Horse Society IVsm in equitation, why don’t I use these skills to retrain.So off I went and retrained as a trampoline coach. As time went on and my son got better I needed to move up the qualification ladder. Each time I had to step out of my comfort zone it was so difficult.
But I thought if I want to do this then I need to be uncomfortable. If not I will stay where I am for ever.
The amount of different emotions I went through was crazy, scared, felt stupid, too old to re train, anxious even physically sick. This was each and every course, exam or just new step.
Once the trampoline club had been up and running for a few years and we had athletes from club, county, regional and national level competition, I thought it about time to start to give back. I decided to become a tutor. Oh no here we go again with all the unwanted feelings and emotions that almost stopped me entirely in my tracks, from doing anything.Each time I had to dig deep if I wanted to take the next step. I knew deep down that I wanted to, so I allowed myself to make the decision that I was going to take each small step as it came. I’m so glad I did as I have now become a High performance coach in trampoline and a British Gymnastics Tutor / assessor, along with my BHS IVsm, NCMH & ANCEBM in equine.I have been coaching for over 30years in both equine and trampoline. Both at high performance level and with world level athletes and coaches. Over the past year during the pandemic, I have really missed being able to coach people of all ages and abilities, so I have diversified my coaching to be here to support individuals both in and out of sport.You know what, I have now learnt to be proud of myself. I really believe that if I can get there being severely dyslexic and having psoriatic arthritis, then I know you can to. I can help you reach your goals 1 step at a time.Tamzin doesn't often take the limelight and is extremely humble about what she has achieved. In my view this is your time to shine!
