#55 Being a Healthy Vegan with BOSH!

Today on the show I'm absolutely delighted to welcome along Henry Firth and Ian Theasby, the duo that make up BOSH!


It's likely that you've already heard of BOSH, they're the UKs leading Vegan influencers. They launched BOSH to show people how great plant-based food could be and back in 2016 they posted a video that pretty much went viral overnight.


Since then, they've had an amazing 2 billion views online, with an average of 26 million views a month - quite incredible isn't it and just shows what a following they have and how interested we are as a nation in plant based eating. Henry and Ian and are the UK’s bestselling vegan authors with 4 published books so far. And with their latest book - Healthy Vegan being a Sunday Times Bestseller.


And to top everything off, they now host the first vegan cookery series on mainstream TV, called Living on The Veg which you can find on ITV. It's a fantastic show and helps to make plant based eating so much more accessible - definitely do go and check it out!


On the episode today you'll hear us chat through the following


  • How Henry and Ian first got into plant based eating
  • The mission for BOSH in the UK and further afield
  • Veganism and nutrition
  • How they create such a great culture within their company
  • What it's like running a business together

I really think you're going to love this episode - it's such a great conversation with two super guys who are completely open and honest throughout our conversation and what a great community they have built up together.


And you absolutely must check out the most recent BOSH cookbook - Healthy Vegan it's a super book with tons of great recipes that you will absolutely love - and do have a look at the other books too.


All other social media links for BOSH are noted below here.

#27 Life Lessons From A Brain Surgeon - Dr Rahul Jandial

#27 Life Lessons From A Brain Surgeon - Dr Rahul Jandial

Today I’m speaking to Dr Rahul Jandial - an American dual-trained neurosurgeon and scientist at City of Hope, a research centre, hospital and postgraduate training faculty in Los Angeles.He’s well known for his cutting-edge approach to brain surgery and neuroscience and has transformed the lives of his neurosurgical patients by putting them through his specially developed boot camp for restoring brain function. He’s written an eye-opening, informative and accessible guide “Life lessons from a Brain Surgeon” where he uses his years of expertise to show how healthy people can rewire their brains to work in a higher gear, and this is what we’ll be chatting about on todays show.Mixing smart brain hacks with case studies and storytelling from his own experiences on the operating table, his book is a powerful and trustworthy insight into the brain.If I could give you three challenges on the back of this podcast they would be:For 1 week, try using your non-dominant hand when using your iPhone or brushing your teeth - it really is tricky at the start but the more you do it, the more dexterity you get in your other hand.Try meditation this week. Try and do at least 10 minutes twice a day - book it in for 7 days, whatever you are doing. It may have some benefits to the cortices of your brain - it may have some benefits to your working memory as well and emotional intelligence.Look at your diet and look out for the 'mind' diet - essentially a modified Mediterranean diet, where the focus is on vegetables, colours, but particularly greens. You’ll find the recipe video that I made with Dr Rahul, and our super interesting conversation - on my youtube channel go check it out online and there's a link below too!Have a listen to the podcast and enjoy - and don't forget to give us a 5* rating on the podcast, it really does help to spread the message and for others to find us too!Dr Rahul’s book is out nowHis social media links are:https://www.facebook.com/DrJandial/https://www.instagram.com/drjandial/?hl=enhttp://www.drjandial.com/ Hosted on Acast.
