I recently listened to a podcast where Simon Sinek spoke about living a happy, mobile long life. He spoke of the importance of connection and community and keeping your heart, lungs & thighs in good shape for ensuring you can continue to find and make these connections, for life!

Well....... I know that the day to day grind can really put a spanner in peoples social lives. We can grow distant in our relationships and friendships. These has a real impact on our health and well being. I have found the solution!

Grab your best girlfriends or lads and go on a trip together! I would go as far to say book a trip to Ibiza. It is the island where you can do anything!

Golf, party, beach, party, long lunches, party. Everything and anything goes! You won't be too old, too young, too square too out there, too out of shape, too health conscious. The island caters for all!

I cannot wait to go back! who's coming with me.

As always you know where to find us

Are you a perfectionist? Are you always being told you should 'work' on that? Is it something you need to change?

He also gives you a brilliant exercise to do. Don't worry you'll know when it comes because i ask everyone to rewind back the episode.

Today we talk about the self belief and if it could be impacting you take action. In my work I see all the time women who lack self doubt. When this is worked on and considered I see adherence to plans, strength and physical ability improve. It's a really interesting discussion.

We also discuss a listener question. They are struggling to make progress but they're eating 1500k. We talk it through and hopefully give the listener some things they can implement or tweak.

We are so lucky to have Will join us this week. He is a PT, coach, therapist and mentor. This week we discuss the importance of Emotional intellegence and as always we've included you the listener.

After all, What good is all this knowledge if we can't apply it to our real lives. Hayley's Project ME group came through with some winning questions and Will answered them in his brilliant style. Will uses a lot of analogies to get to grips with the concepts around emotional intelligence.

It was an absolute pleasure. We'd love him to be a returning guest so your feedback will be really valuable.

If you want to reach out to will you can do so on Instagram or linkedIN.
