S1: EP02 │ Facing Criticism and Doubt w/ Brad Lancaster
Pursuing your passion is difficult, especially when faced with overwhelming criticism and doubt. So, how do you keep going when every step you take is a challenge? I speak to Head Chef Bradley Lancaster who owns and runs a fine dining restaurant, after working for the likes of Gordon Ramsey.
Brad has experienced his fair share of hardship and adversity in the pursuit of his craft, and in this exclusive episode he shares everything that he has faced...but more importantly, how he has overcome each hurdle.
Starting out at a very young age, Brad has worked all over the world which has allowed him to hone his skills and bring a unique fine dining experience back to his local area of Alsager. His restaurant, Caster's, has grown in popularity ever since he first opened the doors in 2018 and he quickly saw his venue expand in size, along with his own celebrity like status.
However, his business, like so many others across the UK, now faces some tough times ahead with the extended national lockdowns and restrictions.
Listen to his story and how he has transformed from a young boy who enjoyed cooking at school, to becoming a masterful Chef with critical acclaim. -
S1: EP01 │Overcoming Depression w/ Chris Iwelumo
Welcome to the first episode! I'm very excited to be starting this show, especially with everything that is happening all around the world.
In an attempt to spread some positive thoughts and affirmations, I thought what better way than to kickstart this Podcast with a very Special Guest.
I'm joined by former professional Footballer, current Media Host and Dad....Chris Iwelumo! We discuss his life and challenges, from when he first started out... all the way to where he is now. Chris has faced his fair share of challenges and set backs throughout his career, all of which he has overcome with strength and vigour. He shares his thoughts and advice on facing these challenges and how to regain power when feeling weak.
Chris started his career with St Mirren before moving to Danish club Aarhus Fremad for two years. A move to Stoke City in 2000 saw him sent out on loan to several teams before a short-lived spell with 2. Fußball-Bundesliga side Alemannia Aachen. After moving to the Football League Championship with Colchester United and then Charlton Athletic, he signed for Wolves in 2008 as they won promotion to the Premier League, winning Player of the Month in November 2008.
