Hello and welcome to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson

I’m a wellbeing and performance coach, speaker and author and this podcast brings together guest experts, inspirational stories and ideas that I hope will you a bit of a boost.

Today’s guest on the podcast is performance and resilience expert Charlie Cannon.

Charlie is a coach, speaker and author who I truly admire for the way he blends his personal story with lessons and simple frameworks.

I was keen to get him on the podcast because every time we speak we always end up having really interesting discussions so I’m delighted to bring you a flavour of some of that today.

We talk about how to cultivate resilience through self-awareness and what it really means to be able to adapt to change.

Charlie’s own story is fascinating and inspiring and I ask him about how his own perspectives have developed over time.

With his background as a personal trainer we were always going to share similar philosophies around the connection between resilience, mindset and performance, and physical wellbeing.

So it was good to swap stories and experiences of sharing these messages with people over a number of years.

Our conversation takes us all over the place, including into the territory of values and purpose which to me are the foundation of resilience.

Charlie has the kind of energy that you can really feel when you listen to him, so I know that today’s episode will give you a bit of a boost!

Hello and welcome to A Bit Of A Boost with me, George Anderson

I’m a wellbeing and performance coach, speaker and author and this podcast brings together guest experts, inspirational stories and ideas that I hope will you a bit of a boost.

My guest today is the Chief Nutrition Officer at Simple app, and founder of Fertility Dietitian UK, Ro Huntress.

Her background as an NHS dietitian where she specialised in diabetes and weight management has given her a wealth of insights into what really works and more importantly how to make necessary changes to your diet.

I didn’t want to talk to Ro about just general nutrition, but more what she has noticed about the impact that ‘health tech’ such as the Simple app can have on our long term results and consistency.

In this episode we talk about…

• What the data say about whether we should be weighing every day or a maximum of once a week
• Why time-restricted eating isn’t restrictive at all
• The staircase of weight loss
• What gets you started won’t keep you going
• The link between app engagement and consistency

...and a whole lot more.

Ro is deeply knowledgeable about this topic and one of her other core areas of research and work is in the world of fertility where she her platform has become an indispensable tool for many couples trying to conceive.

I hear a lot of people talking about the non-negotiables in their lives, usually habits around exercise or sleep or other areas of wellbeing that make a huge difference in their lives.

And whilst I am clearly an advocate of having these routines, I don't personally have any 'non-negotiables' with any of them.

I was asked what my non-negotiables were in a recent panel discussion at a wellbeing event, and figured why not share my thoughts on the topic here as well :)

In this short episode I talk / ramble about:

• Why I don't have non-negotiables
• The difference between a STANDARD and a non-negotiable
• The importance of TOLERANCE
• Why our habits should SERVE you and not ENSLAVE you
• Why it's better to be DELAYED with your progress rather than DERAILED

If you'd like to connect with me on LinkedIn where I post some of these musings through the week, it would be great to see you over there...
