Show notes

Episode 40 of Optimise Your Body Podcast, is certainly one of my most favourite episodes to date. I interviewed Simon Hill who has his own very successful Podcast, which goes by the name of ‘The Plant Proof Podcast’. Simon’ eats purely a plant based diet since eliminating most animal produce from his diet, and he has never looked back. Throughout the course of this episode Simon shares his extensive knowledge on health & nutrition, he is currently studying a Masters degree in nutrition. It is very rare to find a vegan who avoids eating any animal produce mainly for health reasons, it is normally driven from moral beliefs. However since making the switch, Simon is joining the movement to stop this cruelty to animals, and in the process sharing his story on how well his mind & body has responded to eating a plant based diet. Simon also happens to be a very successful business man, so he shares some of his knowledge on how to build a thriving business.

Mental Health Awareness Feat Sam Webb (Livinorg) Jul 13, 2018

Show notes

There is still a whole lot of stigma attached, when it comes to men speaking out about any mental health issues they are experiencing, ie depression, suicidal thoughts etc. Sam Webb is the owner of Livinorg which is a mental health awareness group designed to help other people realise that they are not alone, and that with the right support they can get through it. Unfortunately Sam' very close friend committed suicide back in 2013, on the same night he opened up and told Sam about his depression, this inspired Sam to create Livinorg. Also both Sam and I have experienced depression ourselves so this episode will be very helpful to anyone regardless of whether you have suffered with mental health ailments or not. #itaintweaktospeak Livinorg instagram: @Livinorg Sam Webb instagram: @Samwebb LivingOrg Website:https://livin.org/
