#588: Q+A - Diet Advice I Recommend, My Relationship with Alcohol, Training Through Emotional Chaos, Financial Security Downsides and Why Community Matters More Than Ever! May 11, 2026

Show notes

A fitness, nutrition, fitness and business mix of questions for today's solo Q+A.

1: Nutrition has changed a lot in the last 5 years — what's one thing you believed about dieting in your early fitness career that you've completely reversed your thinking on?

2: What's the honest truth about how alcohol has affected your performance, recovery, and mindset over the years?

3: How do you train through grief, stress, or emotional chaos — when the gym is the last place you want to be but probably where you need to be most?" — Practical and deeply human.

4: What's something you've changed your mind on completely in the last 12 months - about yourself, not about business or fitness?

5: What does your relationship with money actually look like day to day - spending, guilt, enjoyment - now that you have financial security?

6: How do you price yourself when you're scared you're too expensive?

I wanted to try something different for today's solo podcast.

I did the thought experiment of "If I Could Have a Coffee with My 28-Year-Old Self, Here Is What I'd Tell Him About Fitness, Life, Relationships and Business" and this is what came out.

Please let me know how you find it.
