    "Mindful Masculinity: Breaking Macho Myths and Embracing Emotions"

    Welcome to Series 3, episode 2. Today, we're shining a spotlight on an often overlooked but incredibly vital topic: men's mental health. The remarkable Trevor Dias is joining me for this pivotal episode! In this enlightening instalment, Trevor and I delve deep into the heart of men's mental well-being. We believe it's time to break down the barriers and energize men to discuss their feelings openly. Society has long perpetuated the idea that men should suppress their emotions, but it's time for a change. By encouraging open dialogue and vulnerability, we can empower men to embrace their feelings and seek the support they need. Trevor brings invaluable insights to the table as we discuss the societal pressures and stereotypes that often prevent men from opening up about their mental health.  So, join us as we ignite a long-overdue conversation on KOAP Bitesized! With Trevor by our side, we're on a mission to energize men everywhere to embrace their emotions, speak their truth, and prioritize their mental health. Let's spark a movement together!

    Memories of Sylvia Gore "Womens Football Pioneer"

    Welcome to our first podcast of 2024. It's a deeply personal journey through the captivating world of women's football. Today, we shine a spotlight on a remarkable individual whose impact goes way beyond the boundaries of the pitch - Sylvia Gore. What makes this exploration even more poignant is the fact that Sylvia was not only a trailblazer in women's football but also held a special place in my heart as my cousin. In a time when the Football Association (FA) turned a blind eye to women's football, Sylvia defied convention and carved out her own path to greatness. Her unwavering passion for the game and her indomitable spirit propelled her to become a true pioneer in the sport. Sylvia's journey reached its pinnacle when she made history by scoring the first goal for England in an international match after decades of exclusion. This momentous achievement showcased her exceptional talent and symbolized a triumph of resilience over adversity. As I reflect on Sylvia's remarkable legacy, I am reminded of the countless lives she touched and the countless dreams she inspired. Her courage, determination, and unyielding belief in the power of women's football continue to reverberate through the generations, shaping the landscape of the sport we love. Throughout this episode, I am honoured to be joined by three former women footballers whose lives intersected with Sylvia's in profound ways. Together, we'll share cherished memories, personal anecdotes, and heartfelt reflections, offering a glimpse into Sylvia's extraordinary impact on all who had the privilege of knowing her. So, dear listeners, I invite you to join me on this deeply personal journey as we celebrate the life and legacy of Sylvia Gore - not only as a pioneering figure in women's football but also as a beloved cousin whose spirit continues to inspire us all.

    You would think we would know better by now... "you dumb ass..."!

    This for me was a fun conversation about a very serious topic, it touches on the current war and therefore I want people to be aware of that before you listen to the podcast. Lucija Popovska is... and I have said this to her face....  a crazy, energetic, outrageous lady who swears like a trouper and doesnt care what people think. This is a quieter more thoughtful side to her that I hope you like.  But maybe next time we get wine and you all get to find out about her wild side :) Lucija spent several decades in international development, focusing on human rights, specifically the right to housing, housing finance and the way it may (or may not) marry microfinance, and the role of technology in it.   She has been lucky to have lived for shorter and not so very short periods in 11 countries on 3 continents. Her major achievement in life is that she managed to enjoy all of them.  Lucija believes she is a good cook (and is sometimes right), loves her wine (always), sails small boats (whenever she can) and enjoys learning languages (everywhere). Sometimes the four interfere.   She helps manage a software company. Despite that, the company is doing very well.

    Barbrah Naserian Kimong'o the "Maasai Warrior Queen"

    The title the "Masai Warrior Queen" is one that truly describes the personality and energy of this young lady who has challenged both herself and her culture to do what is right for her and what will make her happy. When Stella and I first met Naserian it didn’t take long to see that her passion for wildlife and the work that she is doing at Emboo River Camp is more than just a job. She is someone who looks at any challenge in life as an opportunity to grow and develop and she can teach us all about what is truly important for finding happiness.  This podcast is the first of a series that will be recorded “on the road” so please bear with some of the audio challenges as we will work through these over the coming months.   To find out more about Emboo River Camp, check out their website here. https://www.emboo.camp/

    Meet my Mentor!

    In this episode I get to talk to the man who has had the biggest impact on my life, someone who has helped me in so many ways, especially when I needed it. And now I get the chance to share him with you! Mr James Graves B.E.M has been my mentor for over 28 years and has guided, challenged, and cajoled me into being the man I am today. He has also helped many others and continues to help people at the grand “young” age of 78, with his work with MAST. I just don’t know where he gets his energy from. Hopefully in this podcast you get a little insight into his world and his history and why he does what he does, and why I want to follow in his footsteps.

    Meet my Mentor!

    An artist inspires!

    This is another one of those conversations with someone who inspires me. Chantelle Louise is a self-trained artist who grew up struggling with her self-image and others’ opinions, but she didn’t let them beat her.     In fact, she has used that negative energy to fuel a very positive future, which we discuss in our conversation.    I met Chantelle Louise through another organisation we are proud to work with, Merseyside Community Training (MCT). They are a not-for-profit social enterprise that cares about the Liverpool City Region and is ambitious for its future. MCT is based in Birkenhead and was originally established in 2016 with the primary intent to help the most disadvantaged people from the Wirral community.  https://merseysidect.co.uk/    Chantelle, has been part of this initiative and has thrived from their support.  You can find her work at the links below, and she is taking commissions if you are interested in something special for your home or loved ones.
