#103 Why I'm Not Podcasting Anymore (Coaching Spaces Available Again And A Huge Thank You To Listeners)

Hey people, as the title says I'm taking a step back from podcasting for now. I didn't want this to come across as a moan so it's short and as to the point as I could be.


It absolutely has been worth it, all the people and coaches I speak to on a regular basis were all met through the podcast!


And I just want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has listened - wether it was just a few or it was every one. Thank you!

#102 ADHD With James Mcginity

#102 ADHD With James Mcginity

James Mcginty is back on the show to talk all things ADHD. This was a selfish podcast, I know I had some flawed thinking when it came to ADHD and knew I didn't know enough about it to make any judgements. 


So I thought I'd use my ignorance as a platform to help myself and many others understand what people with ADHD actually go through. 


Hope you learned something or at least had a wee laugh!

#100 Q&A Special! Quitting Running, Do's & Dont's Of New Pt's, Australia & How To Get Back Into The Gym

100 episodes! I'm not much for celebrating random numbers but I thought I'd dive into a Q&A for todays episode.


Covering running setbacks, what to do as a new pt, challenges in running your own business, has the podcast been worth it as well as how to get back into the gym after a long time off.

#98 An In Depth Analysis Of How I Burnt Myself Out AGAIN (As A Personal Trainer)

You may have noticed over the past few weeks there wasn't quite the same energy in my podcasts or I wasn't as engaged with the topics as usual, particularly in any solo episodes I've done.


To be honest I was once again suffering from doing too much, I wanted to discuss how this happened and what I'm doing to change it in the hope that it might help anyone else out there.


I know a lot of people who are pt's follow the podcast but this isn't a pt problem, I am constantly trying to prevent clients from burning out so I thought I should be honest with how I've been feeling.

#97 Why You Don't Need A 'Summer Body Diet' (What To Do Instead)

#97 Why You Don't Need A 'Summer Body Diet' (What To Do Instead)

Every year around Easter coaches with either disordered eating or insecurities around money (or both) will bombard social media with their summer body challenges or programmes without thinking about the impact they have beyond themselves.

Having fell for many a diet in the past to try 'look good' for my holidays this is the exact trap I wish my previous self could have figured out much sooner. You do not need to lose as much fat as you can for summer and that very marketing is why we are so stuck in the fitness industry and will never stop burning the people most of us aim to help.

Here are my thoughts on what you can do to have a much healthier relationship with your body and how personal trainers can market without doing these types of campaigns.

#95 Crossfitters Honest Opinion After First Hyrox And Eddie Abbew's Insanity

#95 Crossfitters Honest Opinion After First Hyrox And Eddie Abbew's Insanity

Steven Raynor is a Scottish crossfitter who in the last appearance on the podcast slagged off hyrox which annoyed a number of people. He decided to put his money where his mouth is and compete and train for the mixed doubles in Glasgow.

We speak about how his training went and how he would programme for beginners, how he went from not being able to run without crying to being able to run easy 10km's, if hyrox is really just a running event as well as covering if it's a fad that's going to end or not.

As usual we also covered a few other topics which mostly involved Eddie Abbew and the nonsense his is spouting all over socials, creating yet another cult like following that reject the need for any evidence to support their claims.

#94 Why Joe Rogan Is Wrong About Fat Shaming

#94 Why Joe Rogan Is Wrong About Fat Shaming

Joe Rogan is one of many big names who believes fat shaming actually works which couldn’t be further from the truth. 


He is not the only one with the likes of Piers Morgan and Katie Hopkins also believing that calling people fat and making them feel terrible about their weight actually helps people lose weight. 


This is one of the dumbest concepts society has came up with so far and there is some ridiculous opinions out there on it. 


As a personal trainer who actually works 1-1 with people helping them lose weight and gain more confidence with themselves and their body - this is my opinion on my why these ideas are extremely dumb and harmful.

#93 The Personal Trainer Who Trains 90 YEAR OLDS With Kerry Smith

#93 The Personal Trainer Who Trains 90 YEAR OLDS With Kerry Smith

Kerry smith is a personal trainer from Scotland who trains 70-100 year olds as well as her clients in the gym.

I seen Kerry post quotes of fitness advice from her clients some of which were as old as 97 and I had to get her on to speak about how she actually trains people of that age and why? We get into lots of topics regarding how the sessions work and how she structures them, the mistakes she has made with her clients as well as how she works around all of the different requirements her older clients need.

It turned out to be a fascinating episode and one I’m sure all personal trainers can learn from and all regular people can take inspiration from!

#92 Asking My Therapist Why Mental Health Issue's Continue To Rise?

#92 Asking My Therapist Why Mental Health Issue's Continue To Rise?

Paul Shields is a therapist who specialises in cognitive behavioural therapy whom I started working with last year to try get over my childhood trauma and anxiety/attachment issues by far my most requested guest since I've spoke about him so much. We get in to some pretty tricky topics including - Do ssri's/anti depressants work and Pauls overview of them - Why are mental health issue's continuing to rise - Why is nobody talking about womans depression rates as they're actually really high too - Why therapists need to stop pushing positive happy self talk as it makes them unrelatable - Why the governments policies and refusal to do anything about the levels of poverty are ultimately what is going to stop mental health issue's from falling Is it a problem with Westminister and the conservatives.. would labour be any better? Would any party make any difference? This was a more serious conversation than I anticipated having but considering Paul is one of the smartest people I know when it comes to how we think even if you don't agree with him I think you'll enjoy hearing my therapist talk openly about depression, anxiety, mental health disorders, treatments like CBT and everything mental health.

#91 My Top 7 Mistakes As A Personal Trainer That STUNTED My Business And Made My Clients Regain Weight

#91 My Top 7 Mistakes As A Personal Trainer That STUNTED My Business And Made My Clients Regain Weight

I've been personal training or coaching both online and in person on the gym floor since 2020 and let me tell you - I have many a mistake that has harmed both my clients and my business (I don't think it's possible not to).


A lot of the mistakes I made I learned from other coaches and from the industry itself, which shouldn't come as a surprise since most of what the fitness industry promotes is of course pretty toxic.


From talking about calories and a 'calorie deficit' all the time, pushing clients to take progress pictures, not understanding my clients and being naive enough to think I can help everybody lose weight and not regain it just by getting them to track their food intake.


I break down everything and the common mistakes most other personal trainers will fall into. Like chasing followers, letting their ego get in the way of coaching or believing they deserve to make more money without being a good coach.


It's a very flawed industry and if you want to help your clients get confident in the gym and ultimately be happier with themselves - you're gonna have to go against the rest of the industry!

#89 How To Be An Amazing Personal Trainer (Tips To Get More Clients) Part 2 With Dale And James

In today's episode I am joined by fellow personal trainers and online coaches James and Dale for the second instalment of how to be an amazing personal trainer where we hopefully give you the tools to become more confident and ultimately get more clients to help grow your business. We cover why you should offer free sessions and how to structure to these to give as much value as possible, how to gain confidence in sales and how to structure pricing as well as what software can help you with both training clients in person and online.Since about 90% of personal trainers fail and quit in the first year we feel it's important to help and empower as many pt's as possible to be able to become successful without being led down the line of business mentors most of whom are going to scam you and teach you sleazy sales tactics. We believe in becoming good at your job which is at the core of everything we speak about (that and translating James). It's well known the certifications teach you absolutely nothing and if you're gonna grow and make enough money to live off of you're going to have to learn how to run a successful business on your own!

#88 The No.1 Bullsh*t Expert Fact Checks Steven Bartlett & Guest's With Caelan Tierney

#88 The No.1 Bullsh*t Expert Fact Checks Steven Bartlett & Guest's With Caelan Tierney

Today we have Caelan Tierney the number 1 bulls*t expert to debunk and fact check some of the guests on the Diary of a Ceo podcast. For the past year or so Steven Bartlett's 'nutrition expert' guests or so called 'doctors' have been coming out with some wild claims or as Caelan and I like to call them conspiracy theories. From Jason Fung, Tim Spector and Gary Brecka we had a lot to debunk. We deep dived into intermittent fasting and why it is not a magic fix for your health or weight loss/fat loss journey, why spinning your water will do nothing for you and why you need to be very careful about what advice you take from this podcast because it has very very little evidence behind the claims from the guests if any (we know very little about the gut microbiome!) Considering Steven is a very very intilligent man and I'm fairly sure has a good grasp of most of these topics especially nutrition (why would he invest in so many nutrition based companies if he didn't?). It seems fairly overdue for him to come under the microscope after the amount of misinformation he allows to come from his podcast and let's not forget - something he ultimately profits from massively.

#87 The Dangerous Consequences Of Calling Yourself ‘Fat’ (Self Fat Shaming)

#87 The Dangerous Consequences Of Calling Yourself ‘Fat’ (Self Fat Shaming)

One of the most common things people who struggle with body image or their weight do is negative self talk. We all do it to some extent but the more you do it the worse you're going to feel and the bigger the impact is going to be on your self esteem and likelihood of losing fat. This isn't about the body positivity movement and it's not about never trying to lose weight if that really is something you feel you have to do. That being said fat shaming anyone doesn't work never mind yourself and you're only going to put up more and more mental barriers to overcoming your negative thoughts and negative relationship with your body. In this podcast I give you some tools to overcome and stop your negative self talk so you can be kinder to yourself and actually make changes without self sabotaging!

#79 A Chat With Someone Who 'Called Me Out' With Steven Rayner

#79 A Chat With Someone Who 'Called Me Out' With Steven Rayner

A few months ago some Crossfit coach started giving me grief on the old socials and made a video about me. That makes it sound like he's going to be an absolute melter but it couldn't be further from the truth. This chat was to show that short form content really is not good for anyone's head, both making it and consuming it. Since we agree on a lot of topics we used this long form podcast to help educate my audience on why there is no one size fit's all approach for training and nutrition.

#74 Why I Muted Every Single Person On Instagram

#74 Why I Muted Every Single Person On Instagram

This week I'm back with a solo episode to discuss why I decided two years ago to mute absolutely everyone I follow on Instagram. In my opinion you have to protect yourself from social media, especially if your work revolves around it. 2 years ago I noticed myself comparing myself to a lot of people in my line of work and not in a good way and I decided to mute every single person.

If you're a personal trainer or even any kind of service based business owner who's struggling to get clients out there this might be the episode for you. None of us are business guru's are run any 'mastermind groups' and we have absolutely nothing to sell you. These are the conversations we have to help each other business's anyway so I thought why not record it and help other business owners out there too.

With obesity on the rise and it being extremely hard to get the surgery through the NHS I wanted to speak to someone who had been abroad to get surgery to hear their story without passing any judgement so thanks to Jen for being so open and honest about her decision and experience.

Doctor Ewan Miller is a medical doctor who works in the field of chemical pathology. He is currently working in a bariatric surgery where he is often the first point of contact for someone looking to seek help with weight loss through the NHS or looking to begin the process of getting gastric sleeve surgery.


With the amount of stories I have heard with weight loss surgery's I wanted to get him on to educate myself and others on a topic that not many understand that also comes with quite a lot of judgement.


We touched on surgery's abroad, the process to getting gastric sleeve surgery, other weight loss surgery's, the pro's and con's and what people go through pre and post surgery.
