Recognising Our Addictions - And A Way O...

Simon Mundie
About this episode

Booze, sex, social media - what's your poison? Taking the time to consider when we have an unhealthy relationship with 'people, places, things and situations' is an extremely valuable process to go through. Former England and Arsenal footballer Tony Adams set up the Sporting Chance clinic, and is an expert at the process people gripped by addiction of any kind can go through to find freedom. He talks about sitting with uncomfortable feelings, puncturing ego - as well as the growing issue of social media and smartphones.


Champion Thinking: How To Find Success Without Losing Yourself - is now on general release. Drawing on some of my favourite interviews over the last five years, I want to challenge our ideas about 'success', and where peace, joy and fulfilment are truly to be found.
