The Feel Good Blueprin‪t‬ Simon Maher

Ricky Weaver is host of the Connections Untold podcast, where he speaks with incredible people in each episode to share their life stories and lessons. Starting the podcast back in September 2019, Ricky opened up about his prior child abuse and difficult upbringing, and since then has led a life of curiosity, interviewing dozens of people. Through his podcast, Ricky advocates the power of connection and vulnerability and is a firm believer that our stories have the power to inspire and move others in to making positive steps in their own lives.

In this episode, we discuss the power of shifting perspective. Ricky had some challenges in his childhood but was able to transmute them in his adult life to channel his energy to strengths and opportunities, resulting in his podcast. We also talk about the benefits and detractors to podcasting, the value of accountability partnership and the courage of being vulnerable.

Ricky was a big inspiration and catalyst for me starting my blog and podcast. He is practical, courageous and has been a big help to me over lockdown. Thanks to Ricky for his time and insight and please do check out his podcast!

Graeme Gunn was born and grew up in Edinburgh and after doing a gap year through Europe, fell into the wholefoods industry in a rapidly growing company. His success would bring him to Nottingham, England, where he would grow family and a business. Through a rare condition, Graeme would eventually need to retire prematurely and have a liver transplant in 2013.

Graeme would embrace his new transplant to take his health, fitness and life to a new level and was selected for Team GB in the World Transplant games squad in Malaga, Spain. He represented GB in Tennis singles and doubles, paddle tennis and squash, winning 2 bronze medals. He has since competed in all GB games since then and was also selected for Team GB in The World games in 2019 in Newcastle.

In this episode, we discuss Graeme's journey of following and trusting what unfolded in front of him. Building a great wholefoods business and team, overcoming health challenges and transmuting them into inspiring outcomes like representing GB in the world transplant games and how the current situation directly affects him.
