Guy is a man of many many talents and you cannot listen to this episode without learning an immense amount about yourself, your life, your career/business and how to uplevel it all.
Guy is the CEO of HSPG (where I also happen to be the MD!) - an impactful, innovative social housing real estate company supporting all angles of the UK homelessness crisis. Guy, together with his co-founder David, has driven HSPG to support over 10,000 people so far to live in safe, secure and most importantly, affordable homes.
In addition to building the HSPG powerhouse, Guy has an additional depth and spiritual side that many don't see. He gives incredibly raw advice that I know will help you see life from a different perspective.
We discuss meditation, gratitude, travel, training, mistakes, living with intention, blagging it, and so many other random points!! Gary Neville also gets a weird amount of airtime on this one 😂
Guy.. thank you for your time and wisdom always. You very special human 🫶

Dr Frankie is a NHS Junior Doctor, Media Medic and absolutely divine human, dedicating her career to researching cancer, conducting clinical trials within the treatment landscape, diving deep into our immune systems and if that wasn't enough.. she's also educating the masses on getting to know our bodies, demystifying our cycles and helping women to realise what's normal.. and what's not.
Why do really healthy people get really awful cancers?
How does our environment impact our genes?
Why do we incessantly compare ourselves? How can we improve our immune system?
Oh and what even IS the morning after pill?
We cover it all 😊
PERIODS.. we go back to basics (and tbh, so many of these basics, we've never actually learned in school, gals!). Training during your period: maybe we don't just need to 'power through'...? SO. MANY. LIGHTBULBS 💡

Lauren is a motivational speaker (I challenge you to be in her presence and NOT feel motivated by her insanely warm, supportive energy btw), Addiction Counsellor, and Founder of the Sober Collective (check it out on insta - @sober.collective), working with successful high achievers who struggle to break free from self sabotage and toxic behaviours.
We chatted about how a little girl from a very lovely upbringing and everything seemingly 'perfect' on the outside, experienced pain, feelings of deep failure and ended up on the wrong side of addiction.
She is now doing incredible things and building a sober community, which you can't help but feel a bit FOMO about if you're not in it!! She also doesn't ram sobriety down your throat, which I feel is an important point to note!!
Get in touch with Lauren, she's a mega human and an inspo to SO many:

I’ve only had a handful of guests on Positively Selfish who need absolutely no introduction and this is definitely one of them: not only a Manchester hero but a worldwide legend - Mr. Gary Neville.
His whole professional football career was dedicated to our favourite team: Manchester United, now a highly strategic entrepreneur, the best pundit on British TV, and probably one of the most heard voices in our apartment after me and my husband!
We discuss lockdown, life successes and failures, sitting on the toilet for some peace and quiet, black lives matter, and a bit of football too..
Trust me, you’ll love this if you’re a football fan, but also a fan of an insane work ethic, drive, commitment to win and no-filter kinda honesty.
Check Gary out, he’s a legend:

I am gonna assume that right now, most of you would agree with me that bringing out the ‘best you’ and unlocking your flow is pretty high up on the agenda.
So I am buzzing that Jack has founded Flow Cognition and basically helped us do just that.
Flow Cognition is one of my new favourite brands, born in Manchester, my fave City, with a huge amount of love and care being poured into the concepts, product quality and brand vibes. Flow’s first product is an incredible tasting, adaptogenic blend of Instant Focus Coffee, made with 100% micro ground whole bean Colombian arabica coffee.
It’s formulated to enhance focus, combat stress, fatigue and boost immunity and I can tell you that I am a BIG FAN!
This ep isn’t just a big long advert, don’t worry. We discuss a whole host of things including entrepreneurship, risks, growth, starting a business in the thick of a global pandemic, successes, learnings, and as always, lots of lols.
Also amazing to know that 5% of all Flow’s profits go towards mental health awareness initiatives. Even more reason to love this brand.

This podcast is so aptly named after one of my absolute FAVOURITE phrases Amy uses in her incredible - beyond incredible - Barry’s bootcamp classes.
Amy is an absolute hero: her physical (and mental!) feats are insane and the way she pours that motivation, inspiration and love into her clients, friends and quite frankly anyone she supports is WILD.
Not only kicking our asses in the 8:20 crew (if you know, you know), burning our asses in Pilates, and motivating the absolute shit out of us all during lockdown.. Amy if it wasn’t for you, I would not have worked out HALF as much during this mental phase of life. Thank you!!
Go listen and enjoy the ep, guys.
Check Amy out, she’s a TOTAL empowering badass woman:

You could say Sarah Knight was the catalyst that put a rocket up my own personal development journey. She simply an absolutely incredible human: after 15 years as a book editor in NYC, she became a best selling author of the ‘No F**ks given guides’, TedX speaker, and she’s been featured in a whole host of publications including Vogue, The New York Times, Marie Clare, Elle, Cosmo, list goes on...
One of her books, ‘The Life Changing Magic of Not Giving a F**k’ literally changed my whole life, my outlook, and genuinely helped me to CHILL OUT.
Listen to her deepest wisdom on how to stop being paralysed by other people’s expectations and opinions and honestly you cannot pass go, you cannot collect £200, you cannot carry on until you read her books!!
