First podcast episode of 2022 ! It's been awhile fam, and in this solo cast I open up about my recent resurfacing of addictions that crept back into my life and almost ruined everything Ive been working so hard to create.
Addiction is such a big topic, but what I realised is that you don't have to be a drug addict on the streets, or in rehab to "have a problem", most people are functional addicts in some way or another and thus can easily delude themselves into normalising their behaviour.
For myself I realised that in order to create the life i'm striving to create, I had to tackle my addictions head on and not let them get the better of me, and so my hope is that in sharing my experiences, perhaps its inspires you to shine the light of awareness on the habits and substances that are potentially not serving you anymore ...

Todays Guest is Peter Stutz, A Technocrat with a Masters Degree in Science and Computer Science who has been in the IT Industry for most of his life. Peter has spent the last ten years investigating and learning about the dangers of EMF Radiation Exposure after his wife was diagnosed with Cancer.
With the exponential increase in electrical pollution in our society and the mass scale rollout of the 5G technology while we are all forced to sit in lockdown, we need to raise awareness around this issue so that we can demand independent studies showing this technology is safe to human health and the environment, otherwise we need to push back against the rollout until such evidence exists.
Ignorance is now a choice, and we need to educate ourselves before it is too late.
Peter does EMF Exposure Home Assessments and you can find his website at www.emfree.co.za
Are you struggling with Addiction? Or maybe you have a bad habit, person, or substance that you turn to in your life due to inner turmoil that you perhaps don’t even know the root cause of ?
Well then this Podcast is definitely for you !
I sat down with Vincent and Morgane, who have both had their struggles with various substances / habits and I got to pick their brain on all things related to Addiction. Vincent and Morgane have been completely sober for 4 years and the life that they are living today, they never would of thought possible at the onset of their recovery journey.
Morgane Is the owner and founder of Liberty Home, a secondary care rehabilitation centre that assists in reintegrating addicts into society, and both Morgane and Vincent are involved directly in assisting patients and giving back to their community , as the “basis of any 12 step programme is one addict helping another” - Vincent
Check out their website at www.libertyhome.co.za and don’t be shy to reach out to them anytime if you feel like you are struggling.
This conversation was a lot more for me than just another episode, this topic touched home for me as well, as I’ve had my own internal struggles throughout the years, although I never actively sought help, I realised that in hindsight I should have.
Substance abuse has been apart of my life since teenage years, and on reflection after this conversation as to the “WHY” behind the destructive behaviour, I was confronted with a rather harsh reality check.
Im grateful to both Vincent and Morgane for this conversation, and if only one person can take something away from this and decide to change the trajectory of their life, It will all be worth it.
Enjoy and let me know your thoughts !

This weeks guest is Matt Leisching, a Long time friend and Co-founder of MadFit MMA in Cape Town, South Africa.

In this Conversation I sat down with Josh Miller, for what was one of the funniest as well as interesting conversations I have had.
Josh is from California, USA and while he's not out dispensing Medical Marijuana, or working in the hospitality industry, he's getting on stage to perform stand up comedy and also rocking his own podcast "That's Not What I Ordered" - make sure to check it out on Spotify !

In this Conversation I sit down with Trisha Packham to discuss a few issues regarding Gender, Discrimination, Equality and a range of topics surrounding the current chaos around this sometimes contentious subject.
Delving into a females perspective of growing up, and the challenges that young girls face, was really insightful for me and I took a lot away from this conversation, as I hope you will.
We unpack what it means to be “masculine” or “feminine”, why “woman are not woman” anymore, as well as how the focus on “equality” can sometimes have detrimental affects on the structure and nature of relationships, especially in this ever increasing materialistic world we are living in.

In this conversation, I sit down with Francois De Jonge to discuss Farm Attacks and Murders happening in South Africa.
