There's Another Way Podcast

Join us for another special episode of There's Another Way. Earlier this year, due to unforeseen circumstances, we had to take an enforced break from recording our podcast series. Our podcast journey took an unexpected detour when Adam, our fearless host, faced a rare and life-threatening health crisis. Thanks to the wonders of modern technology and a stroke of luck, having played a gruelling tennis match just the day before, we hear Adam’s honest and open account of this frightening health journey. He shares how he dealt with facing such a significant diagnosis at just 40, and the lessons he's learned along the way. Fortunately, Adam is still here to tell his story, and now, five months later, he's opening up about his harrowing experience, from the initial shock of diagnosis to the profound lessons learned along the way.

Welcome to a special marathon edition of There's Another Way! When we launched our podcast, our aim was to shed light on guests with inspiring stories who've chosen unique paths.

If it motivates just one person to tackle the marathon next year, it'll all be worthwhile. Join us as we delve into the highs and lows of preparing to conquer a 42.2 kilometre run, soak in the electric atmosphere of the event, and we talk to the Chief Executive of Brain Research UK to discover the impact of the funds raised for an incredible charity.
