    Therapy, Football & Introspection with Simon Glover

    Simon Glover had big dreams during his childhood years of being a footballer. He went on to play semi-professionally and saw a bright career ahead of him, however, the universe had other ideas. This "failure" led Simon on a journey of self-discovery. He trained to become a counsellor and life coach, which now sees him run his own company called You Life Guidance, where he has employed a team of therapists and life coaches to go into schools and do incredible work with young people. Simon is on a mission to be of service to as many people as possible. Mantras are particularly important to him, as is his unique outlook on life. During the conversation Simon speaks about the events in his childhood that shaped him into the man he is today. We touch on mental health, spirituality, and when it's time to stop going over the same trauma repeatedly, and how that can become a block to our own growth in the process.

    Paolo Lai is a reflexologist, serial manifestor, and creator of Moon Mist. Paolo is originally from a small village in Sardinia, before he travelled abroad for a new life in London over 20 years ago. Paolo is renowned on the London wellness scene for his incredibly transformative body and facial reflexology treatments. During a period of hardship, Paolo created Moon Mist, an aura spray created on the night of the full moon each month, infused with crystals, herbs and a little dose of magic. The product has a cult following and is loved by Victoria Beckham, Lisa Snowdon, and many others. During the episode we speak about the power of manifestation, how to make it easy for you and your life, the moon and it's cycles, and all things spirituality.
