How they pitched Anthony Joshua as a brand ambassador, how they decided their roles would change after 15 years and who would become CEO and who would focus on growth strategy plus their biggest learning along the way and how teaching £100 million in revenue is just the beginning of the bulk journey. Today they are completely rebranding bulk powders as bulk and have made huge moves to drive sustainability, with 93% of their products now in compostable pouches which has reduced their single use plastics by more than 15m pieces. What I would ask you to consider as you listen to this is the following. What idea have you been sitting on? Have you had a niggling thought in the back of your mind to start something, create something or start working towards dream. It might not be as big as that. It could be something small but you’re still procrastinating. We have a tendency to wait until everything is just perfect before we act, but the truth is that perfect moment is likely never going to arrive. We will never have every boxed ticked and the great thing is You don’t have to. We don’t need everything perfectly aligned! In this episode the lads even talk about how at one time as an enterprise business they realised hadn’t actually addressed their culture! With that said, don’t wait for the perfect moment. Just do it. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- This episode is sponsored by Clean Co. The no / low alcohol company who do not compromise on taste!

Ollie is a former military man, initially a royal marine commando. After 5 years service he was recommended for SAS selection - the gruelling 6 month selection process finished with Ollie as one of only 5 from 250 to pass and be inducted into the special forces as part of the SBS, the special boat service. During his 6 years in the special forces he undertook countless high profile missions including hostage rescue, counter narcotics, counter terrorism, homeland security and counter insurgency. On leaving the SBS Ollie worked as private security both in Iraq and Southeast Asia. Ollie is arguably most recognised for his part os one of the founders of the incredibly popular TV show SAS.WDW - which documents recruits going through a simulated SAS selection. Ollie is the CEO of break point, an organisation for both public and corporate which focuses on shifting people’s limiting beliefs. He’s a speaker and a writer too. His books ‘Break point’ and 'Battle Ready' where both Sunday times best sellers - and he now has a new book ‘Scar tissue’, which unlike his others is a fiction which has just dropped. He also recently launched battle ready 360. A gym in a box that can be taken anywhere to train anytime. This conversation blew me away. We discuss Ollie career development and his desire to be himself and not conform and how that’s impacted him. We talk about his incredibly specific and powerful morning routine and what each practice does for him. He opens up about how last year a trip to Costa Rica which involved an psychedelic ceremony (ayahuasca) allowed him to finally get over the trauma he experienced as a 10 year old boy, when a 50kilo chimp attacked him, with Ollie narrowly missing death. This was a crazy story! Plus we talk how to use visualisation to achieve anything we want! We also go into what the ‘system’ is designed to push us into a life that lacks meaning. We essentially put the world to rights in this one! I’m so proud to share this one with you today. Without further ado, please enjoy episode 99 with former special forces solider, entrepreneur, speaker, author and legend - Ollie Ollerton.

Cecilia is the co-founder of RWL (https://www.resultswellnesslifestyle.com) along side business partner Lucy Mecklenburgh, a celebrity personal trainer and huge inspiration to so many. Born in Paris, Cecilia grew up in Tunisia, New York and Miami before coming to London in the 1990's, and finally settling in Essex. Cecilia’s younger years were spent in hospitality working in restaurants, chalets and managing hotels. Her pivot into the world of fitness happened as a result of a huge personal challenge in her mid-thirties. Cecilia suffered from postnatal depression following the birth of her son Fabio and found that whilst antidepressants made her less depressed, she felt ‘less’ of everything else; less happy, less energetic and less joyous. After being on medication for 6 months and desperate to find a different solution, Cecilia turned to exercise and started training with one of Miami’s top personal trainers. Her life changed and she quickly came off Medication and found her natural high using exercise as a therapeutic method and form of meditation. Cecilia felt inspired to promote the power of exercise to other women, and upon moving back to the U.K become a Personal Trainer herself and opened her first Boutique PT studio in 2008. A second studio soon followed, where she met fellow co-founder Lucy Mecklenburgh and they started what would become a multi-million pound business. In 2013 Lucy and Cecilia’s fitness brand launched to become the first of its kind online Fitness Platform in the U.K, first as Results with Lucy and now rebranded for 2020, as Results Wellness Lifestyle, with a community of 500,000 followers across social media. As Cecilia approaches 5 million paid for workout sessions from her client base, Cecilia is almost certainly now the U.K's No.1 Personal Trainer. She brings a level of energy, love and passion to her unique brand of fitness, that radiates through to those following along and i certainly felt that energy speaking with her and I’m so pleased I’m able to share her story with you today. What I would ask you to think about during this conversation is this. Are you over complicated things? We have a tendency to over complete and I’m guilty more than most here. Consider whether you are over complicating things and also ask your self with this challenge that you are facing right now what ever it is.... what are you choosing not to see? There’s often some gold in all challenge we face if we’re willing to see and hear them. https://fl1ght.co.uk/ If you enjoyed this episode you may enjoy this episode with Esme Gummer, celebrity trainer and SAS.WDW contestant: https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/028-esmee-gummer-overcoming-paralysis-smashing-sas/id1339336927?i=1000430033436

Spencer also has his own show with wife vogue Williams - Spencer, Vogue and baby too. Which was so popular it came back for a second season the same year. I actually loved watching both too! But, what I was most interested to hear about was Spencer’s life as an entrepreneur and how he built Clean Co and transformed his life through sobriety. Clean co is truthfully what I have been crying out for. An extremely low alcohol replacement to traditional alcoholic drinks. Clean co launched a clean gin and a clean rum to start with and I was fascinated to hear all about Spencer’s vision of broadening their product offering beyond liquor and essentially striving for world domination in this market! I was so impressed by his mindset, his desire to help people and the clarity of his vision. Clean co just secured a further £7million investment on top of the 2mil investment they had at the beginning of the year, so a massive congrats to the team. I’ll raise a clean gin to that. We talk all about entrepreneurship, family life, body transformation, jujitsu and the power of clean and optimal living. A truly powerful conversation that I'm extremely grateful we had.

But he’s not just a life coach - he’s also a football coach at West Ham academy working with players and coaching staff. He’s basically a legend. A former footballer like myself - in truth we had so many synchronicities. I called Jeff a few days before we recorded not knowing that we’d still on the phone for 45 minutes talking non stop!

That’s a try nearly every 90minutes of club rugby. An incredible achievement! In 2014, he was called up to the England first team and hasn’t looked back since. Clocking up 42 appearances and 14 tries maintaining his incredible try scoring consistently at club, but for country. In 2017 Jack was called up to what most consider the biggest honor of any pro rugby players career, when he went to Japan as part of the British and Irish lions squad. Scoring twice in his stand out appearance against the chiefs. He’s such an exciting rugby player and clearly the ultimate example of a peak performer. He’s a man after my own heart - covered in tattoos and some questionable haircuts - and is the ultimate example of someone who is completely comfortable being themselves and the exact type of person I wanted to have on the podcast from day one. I love people who don’t care what other people think and are just so happy being themselves. Jack is such a positive person too - I remember I left this conversation with so much energy and that’s thanks to his mindset and the way he articulates himself. It was just such a pleasure to have him on the podcast and I hope you feel the boost in energy I felt after hearing his story. https://www.instagram.com/jacknowell/?hl=en This episode is brought to you by The Turmeric Co.
