Tom has been one of my biggest influences over the past year. After battling cancer and changing the way he saw the world; he has since gone on to become one of Dubai’s leading entrepreneurs, a successful ultra marathon runner and is constantly pushing the boundaries on his physical and mental limitations. Alongside our mutual friend Marcus Smith (Episode 141), Tom’s advice and support is one of the main reasons I was able to finish the 250km run through the Sahara Desert in April.
We talk everything from the mindset developed through running and nutrition for half or full marathons to the difference between real and perceived problems and the importance of the right romantic relationship for long-term success. I got so much from this interview. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed recording it.

Short-term micro imbalance for long-term macro imbalance Battling cancer and changing the way you see the world Training and nutrition for his first ever marathon How the excuses you make today become regrets you have later His main tips for running an endurance event (half marathon, full marathon and ultras) The difference between a real problem and perceived problems.TOMS LINKS

For Margee Kerr, PhD, dangling from the ledge of a 1,000 ft. tall tower with nothing but a harness, a carabiner, and an odd set of safety instructions is just another day in the life. Whether it’s hanging out in haunted prisons, trekking the globe to find the world’s tallest and fastest rollercoasters, or contemplating life and death in Japan’s Suicide Forest, Margee investigates the effects of fear on our minds, bodies, and brains.
Find out why one Washington Post reporter called Margee’s book Scream: Chilling Adventures in the Science of Fear “the creepiest book I read this year”.
Margee isn’t content just studying the science and psychology of fear, she wants to experience it herself. And on today’s episode, she shares some of her adventures and experiences and what she learned along the way about what scares us and why.
Listen to find out about:
-How roller coasters, thrill rides, and haunted houses create effective physical thrills and jolts by shaking up your body and your brain.
-What makes a place "haunted" and why are old prisons, hospitals, and institutions so creepy?
-Is infrasound giving you the chills without you knowing about it?
-Can a thrilling experience help us overcome worry and anxious rumination?
-What’s the scariest experience of them all?
Find out on today’s episode of the School of Psych! For more frightfully good times, subscribe to the podcast and check us out over at SchoolofPsych.com -
It’s not just you – time really does seem to pass faster for people as we age. But exactly why remains a mystery, though some of the theories for why life passes by so quickly are make a lot of sense.

This episode is for any who works 1:1 as a personal trainer or wants to move their business online and how to do that. I’ve also discussed questions to ask yourself if you’re considering going into the fitness industry from school and college or anyone looking to have a fitness service, product or business as their ‘side hustle’. Everything below really applies to any business but I’ve used fitness as the example in most cases, so I hope it helps.

Siobhan’s story is incredible. She talks through how she went from being overweight (and strong) to lean and fit and how keeping herself accountable on social media started it all! We talked everything in this episode from 9-5 jobs to travel to physical transformations and avoiding fad diets.

For this one, I just pressed record and talked about of my experience running 250km self-sufficient through the Sahara Desert the week before last. I go briefly into everything I did with my training, food and mindset before the event and then all the ridiculous and life-changing moments during and after my time in the Sahara. This episode goes through the highs and the lows. I’ve talked everything from avoiding snakes and scorpions on the long day (86 km), seeing people hooked up to IV’s and puking blood to cutting away the steel poles holding our tent to try and survive a sandstorm (side note: I’ll never take having a roof and four walls for granted ever again!). I hope you enjoy this one. This episode is dedicated to my MDS tent mates Simon, Johnny, Paddy, Hugh, Fergal and Pete who all played a huge role in helping me get to the finish line.

How do you calculate your calories and know how many you should be eating? 02:28 Thoughts on slimming down chunky (but muscular) thighs? 17:41 Do you recommend weekly cheat meals? 29:17 I have a quick question, do you have any tips on food anxiety? I'm 23 and I really want to go out and enjoy myself whilst still staying healthy but whenever my friends ask me to go out for drinks all I can think about it calories and I usually end up not going as I'm too anxious about losing my progress. I love health and fitness but am really scared I'm in too deep and it's preventing me from living life in my 20s any advice? 43:28

Currently in the middle of your book and your anxiety podcast was so helpful. Do you have any other mindset or philosophy book recommendations for a beginner? I’m juggling with a new-born, career, training and college, any tips? What do you think of fat burners, are they harmful or helpful? - I’ve lost my way in life, don’t even have the energy to go to the gym anymore, what should I do? A guy I’m texting wants me to send him nude photos, I’m not sure if I should, what if anyone else sees them but I’m afraid he won't text back if I don’t do it?

What’s your morning recovery strategy? 03:26 Could you do a podcast on slowly increasing calories or reverse diets? 20:08 I started eating better and drinking more water and after one week, I have gained weight, why is this happening? (side question: setting small wins for working with overweight or obese clients as their personal trainer) 30:33 Any tips for motivation? (side note: I got very lit up in this one so there’s excessive swearing, don’t listen in public or with your kids) 42:04
