This week, we are joined by Dr. Peter Olusoga (@po2209), senior lecturer in psychology and host of the Eighty Percent Mental podcast (@eightpercentmental). Pete is active sport psychology consultant, working with athletes and teams in a variety of sports.

The changing narrative around athletes and mental health and why this is a good thing for everyone
Athletes using their voices for change and the long history associated with this
Thinking critically about the world around you

A passion for what you do stemming from who you want to be
The future of health on a personal and professional level
The importance of 'one million little moments'
Business, being real, and professional boundaries
The power of asking 'why do I feel the way I feel?'

In our second conversation from Season 2, we are joined by Danny Lennon. Danny is the man behind Sigma Nutrition (@sigmanutrition) and for the nutrition inclined listeners, his podcast, articles, and input have been a landmark resource. 

Some cool things we get into with Danny include:


Some of his successes and what he attributes them to
His 'meta' meaning of why he does what he does
The evolution of sigma nutrition content and why it matters
Two incredibly interesting defining moments
The questions being asked in light of new health challenges
