    “One man’s refusal to accept the standard path — and what it means for the rest of us.”

    Send us a text Episode #73 — Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS featuring Dale Atkinson “One man’s refusal to accept the standard path — and what it means for the rest of us.” Today’s episode is a powerful reminder of what happens when you challenge the status quo of modern care. In this podcast, I sit down with Dale Atkinson — UK entrepreneur, writer, and cancer advocate — whose stage IV oesophageal cancer diagnosis in 2024 came with a prognosis of 11.5 months to live and a “palliative only” recommendation. But Dale didn’t accept that as his story. Instead, he built a science-led, integrative, person-centred approach that completely changed his trajectory. No false hope. No shortcuts. Just deep research, clinical curiosity, and a refusal to outsource his health. Today, Dale is the founder of:  🔹 REIV — a next-generation cancer clinic (launching 2026) 🔹 The Life Organic — a platform dedicated to evidence-based health, nutrition & lifestyle strategy And in this episode, we explore what his journey means for the rest of us. Key Insights We Unpack: Why finding your tribe in a health journey is non-negotiable The power of working with the right people — clinicians, thinkers, mentors Why open-mindedness and personalised protocols matter more than ever How agency, curiosity, and self-education can shift outcomes Why your health is not an expense — it’s your most valuable daily investment Dale’s story isn’t just inspiring — it’s a case study in what’s possible when you take ownership of your care, your environment, and your decisions. If you, or someone you love, is navigating a complex diagnosis…  If you’ve ever questioned the one-size-fits-all model…  If you believe in a future where metabolic health is foundational, not optional… This episode is for you.  Listen to Episode #73 now Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS — available on all major platforms.

    The Realities of Bipolar Disorder and more

    Send us a text Episode 71 – Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS In this episode, I strip back the noise and talk honestly about mental health, resilience, and the realities of living with Bipolar Disorder — because wellbeing isn’t just about diet and exercise, it’s about the whole picture of who we are.  The wisdom and storytelling shared in this episode features the incredibly honest heart of Ryan Harland  For too long, men’s health has been clouded by silence and stigma. Phrases like “man up” have done more harm than good. So in this conversation, Ryan shares his personal journey — from the impact of abuse and silence, to the emotional rollercoaster of home and school life, and the importance of finally finding his voice. Here’s what we cover: Why men’s health matters and why “man up” is not the answer The long shadow of abuse and its impact on emotions and behaviours The silence carried, and the cost of not speaking up Finding healthier ways to cope with Bipolar Disorder The role of therapy, group support, and the right kind of help Why social media can be a mask — and why connection matters more The importance of relationships, community, and taking life one step at a time On a quest to reach as many people as possible, ensuring no one suffers alone, Ryan’s story is incredible.  Remember — it’s always okay to open up and share your struggles, regardless of your past or your age. Every individual has the power to create a positive impact. This story isn’t just about pain — it’s a tale of resilience and triumph, one that I hope inspires others to find their voice and spark change in their own lives and communities. Tune in to Episode 71 of Metabolic Wellbeing Without the BS. Let’s break down stigma, open up honest conversations, and remind each other: you are not alone.
