#053 - Garrett J. White - What Does It Mean To Be A Man? Wake Up Warrior
Garrett J. White is the founder of Wake Up Warrior, Creator of Warrior Week & Author of Warrior Book. There is turmoil for both men & women on what our gender roles demand of us in modern society with one of the primary questions being "What does it mean to be a man?" Today I'm turning to Garrett for answers as a coach who has helped thousands of men to become an upgraded version of themselves. Raw and unfiltered, Garrett has a very intense view of what masculinity means and how men should behave, but behind the brutish delivery is a focus on truth being paramount and taking charge of your personal sovereignty. I'd love to hear your opinions, so drop me a message and let me know your thoughts.

#052 - Leon Scott - How To Use Your Influence
Leon Scott is a Semi-Professional Footballer, Model, Influencer and Online Coach. The worlds of modelling, football and Instagram aren't often extolled for their virtue or commitment to mindfulness, but Leon is a non-typical member of these groups and is using his platform to promote mental wellbeing to the thousands who follow him. Great to sit down with a kindred spirit today. We finally got to discuss how we both feel about having a desire to promote mental wellbeing through our channels and the requirement to balance that with the "game playing" which is needed to be successful online.

We are often told that the world is a vicious place, with this in mind, how do you grow an unshakeable core of calm, strength and happiness to help weather the inevitable storms?
