    It takes time to transform our habits, behaviours and self identity to the point where we can sustain the results we seek with ease. We hope you find this episode insightful.

    So, if you're ready to reclaim control of your midlife journey and unlock the door to your best self, then stay tuned as we uncover the five habits that may be standing in your way.

    S3 Ep172: From Addict To Ironman: Interview with Todd Crandell

    S3 Ep172: From Addict To Ironman: Interview with Todd Crandell

    In this episode we speak to the truly inspiring Todd Crandell. 

    Todd spent 13-years in the trenches of drug addiction and alcoholism destroying his mind, body and relationships using heroin, cocaine, alcohol and in his words - every prescription drug he could get his hands on. He was homeless and suicidal. But, after his third arrest, he had a moment of clarity and quit his addictions - going cold turkey. 

    From that point on Crandell took back control of his life. Since sobriety, he's raced over 100 IRONMAN and Ultraman events in 15 countries and six continents. He’s also set up an organisation Racing for Recovery  which helps people all over the world overcome addiction through healthy and holistic living — it's a new approach to sobriety and an alternative to the traditional programmes.

    Todd is also an author, speaker and filmmaker and we’re sure you’re going to find this episode both enlightening and inspirational.

    S3 Ep171: Why it's harder to lose weight at midlife...

    Why does it feel so much harder to lose weight at midlife? 

    Well you’re not imagining it, and you’re not alone. What we used to do in our 20s and 30s no longer works and that can be really frustrating. More often than not we see midlifers doing the wrong things, that aren’t tailored to the unique challenges we face at midlife. 

    So in this episode we’re going to share the top 5 reasons it’s harder to lose weight at midlife, to give you a deeper understanding, and of course, bring some compassion to the struggles you might be experiencing.

    We’ll also share tips on how to start making progress, because we can promise you, although it’s harder to lose weight at midlife, it certainly isn’t impossible, if you have the right evidence based approach…
