After his life-altering diagnosis, as well as suffering from various ‘mystery’ illnesses, ailments and mental health issues, he came *this close* to giving up on his search for wellness.

In less than 3 months, he put on 5 kilos of muscle, increased his training volume by 600%, healed some lingering ailments, got his energy back to levels he hadn’t experienced for decades, and now feels stronger, healthier, happier and more creative than ever before.In this conversation, we opened it up to you and he’s answering all YOUR burning questions about mental health, releasing new music, creativity, purpose, his transformation, revealing the truth about going plant-based, and how it can impact your life.So if you want to bust through the raging myths about eating plant-based, find out why transitioning to plants is not as hard (or as big a deal) as you may think, and also hear his new single (which is hands down, one of my favourites), grab your earbuds, press download, and prepare to have your mind-blown… this episode is for you!In this episode we chat about: His journey through one of the toughest times of his life… and how it impacted our relationship (08:30)His new single — why now, and why the delay?
