  1. “Why Your 2026 Goals Will Fail (Unless You Do This One Thing)”

    JAN 6

    “Why Your 2026 Goals Will Fail (Unless You Do This One Thing)”

    Most people don’t fail because they lack discipline, motivation, or knowledge. They fail because their goals are disconnected from their real life. In this episode, I break down why setting short-term, superficial goals (lose weight, get fitter, push for 12 weeks) keeps you stuck in the same loop year after year. You hit the goal… then what? No fireworks. No fulfilment. Life creeps back in, motivation fades, and you’re right back at the start resetting the same goal again. I explain the “half-circle loop” most people live in — pushing hard, hitting a wall, restarting — and why it happens when goals aren’t aligned with values, identity, and real-world pressures. We talk about: Why discipline without alignment always runs outHow sleep, food, training, and habits must support life outcomes (not aesthetics)Why long-term success feels boring in the moment — but incredible in hindsightHow to stop repeating the same January reset every yearIf your goals don’t support the life you actually want, you won’t sustain them. This episode will force you to think deeper, plan smarter, and finally move forward in 2026.

  2. “The Christmas Hand Grenade: Turning December Frustration into Momentum”

    “The Christmas Hand Grenade: Turning December Frustration into Momentum”

    December isn’t just lights, Baileys and bad jumpers – it’s the one time of year when the world actually slows down. Shops shut, routines vanish, opening hours change, kids are off, family are everywhere… and your normal structure disappears. In this episode I talk about frustration as a double-edged sword – or as I call it, the “Christmas hand grenade”. The same frustration that makes you annoyed you’re not training or eating well can either: Push you to protect what mattersOr give you an excuse to down tools, drift, and write December offWe get into: Why December time isn’t “lost” – it’s just redistributedHow to use extra movement and steps to protect digestion, energy and moodWhy wasting Christmas so much you can’t eat your Christmas dinner should be illegalOld Christmas vs New Christmas: what you don’t want to repeat next yearWhy 2026 isn’t magic and what actually needs to change for it to be differentIf you’re tired of promising yourself “New Year, new me” while spending December in fantasy land, this one’s your wake-up call – and your plan.

    Multivitamins: Cheap Insurance or Expensive Pee?

    This episode breaks down the noisy world of supplements and zooms in on multivitamins – what they genuinely can do, and where people get misled. Gordy explains why most busy, UK-based adults are likely running low on key nutrients like vitamin D, magnesium and calcium, and how that links to tiredness, poor sleep, brain fog and faster ageing. He talks about “optimal” blood ranges versus what your GP might call “fine”, and why how you actually feel day to day still matters. Drawing on big studies (COSMOS and JAMA), he frames multivitamins not as magic pills or life-extenders, but as cheap “nutritional insurance” that quietly cover gaps when life is chaotic, food quality dips, and you’re juggling work, kids and stress. He finishes with practical guardrails: do your own research, check with your GP if you’re on meds/pregnant or have health issues, don’t just buy whatever an influencer peddles, and if you use them, choose a decent-quality product that fits your context rather than a one-size-fits-all solution.

  4. “Why You Keep Falling Back to Average (and How to Stay Out)”

    “Why You Keep Falling Back to Average (and How to Stay Out)”

    In this episode, I unpack a big reason people “fall back into old habits” – and it’s rarely because they’re weak or lack willpower. It’s because the people around them pull them back into what I call “the average” – the majority who don’t prioritise their health, don’t make time for themselves, and feel more comfortable when you stay the same. We talk about what it really means to move from the majority into the minority – the small group who eat differently, order differently, dress differently, and carry themselves with more confidence. I explain why friends, family and partners can (often unintentionally) sabotage your progress, how to set boundaries without being an arse, and why proper coaching isn’t just “drink more water and check in next week”. I’ll show you how to hold your line, get support, and stay in the minority long enough for your new identity to actually stick – so you don’t keep boomeranging back to your old self.

  5. “Don’t look back, you’re not going that way.” And Why I Disagree

    “Don’t look back, you’re not going that way.” And Why I Disagree

    You’ve heard the line: “Don’t look back, you’re not going that way.” Sounds motivational. In reality, it’s one of the quickest ways to stay stuck. In this episode I break down why you must look back if you actually want to move forward. Not to beat yourself up. Not to stroke your ego. But to see the evidence. We get into: The two traps: living on a pedestal vs living in the pitHow shiny-object advice pulls you away from your own valuesWhy you keep outsourcing your decisions to coaches, podcasts, friends and “experts”How to review your last year of business, training or life without lying to yourselfThe Hyrox example: how I blew my first race, owned it, and then took 13 minutes off my timeThe simple “pick 2 problems and actually fix them” exercise for the next 8–10 weeksIf you feel like you’re spinning in circles, chasing other people’s goals, or stuck in mum-guilt / burnout mode, this one is for you. You’ll walk away with a clearer idea of: What got you hereWhat’s genuinely in your wayAnd what two actions you need to commit to nextNo fluff. Just you, your evidence, and a plan.

    The Stew That’s Keeping You Stuck

    You don’t have a “motivation” problem. You’ve just been making the same bad stew for years and pretending it’ll taste different. In this episode, I break down: Why you keep loading your life with the “easy ingredients” (steps, walks, random runs, ‘healthy’ foods you like) and avoiding the stuff that actually drives results.How comfort choices in food, training, and routine create the illusion of progress while your outcome never changes.The trap of chasing pleasure without accepting any discomfort, and how that mindset bleeds into your health, work, and relationships.Why your version of the “perfect plan” keeps failing, and how to finally define the outcome you actually want instead of copying someone else’s.A simple way to audit your current mix of habits, bin the useless ones, and rebuild a plan that matches your real values and real life. If you’ve “started again” more times than you can count, this one will make you uncomfortable in the right way.

    Own Your Algorithm

    Social media isn’t neutral. It mirrors what you feed it. In this episode you’ll learn how to take control of your inputs, set realistic targets, and turn your feed into a tool for progress instead of a trigger.

    Fasting Isn’t the Fix: Own Your Inputs, Rebuild Your Energy

    Your motivation didn’t vanish—you’re leaking it. In this episode I challenge the default “new hack” mindset (intermittent fasting for menopause, anyone?) and show you why chasing protocols won’t help until you fix foundations: values, habits, and attention. What’s really happening when energy tanks: estrogen shifts, dopamine drain from screens, poor sleep, and a widening gap between what you say you value and what you actually do.Why the problem isn’t fasting or calories—it’s your attitude toward yourself and your inputs.Gut–brain reality: “cheat weekends” wreck digestion, mood, and momentum. Swap “cheat meals” for refeeds—nutrient-dense, bigger portions, no binge.Acceptance as a lever: get honest about where you are so action becomes possible.Quick wins to start today: Cut screen time by 25% and use that block for walks, planning, or lights-out.Pre-log tomorrow’s food (Fridge Method).Set 3 non-negotiables: sleep window, steps, protein at each meal.Weekly values check: does your calendar match what you say you want?Ask yourself: What am I avoiding? What evidence did I produce today for the life I say I value?
