Mt 23,27-32. ¡Ay de ustedes, escribas y fariseos hipócritas, que parecen sepulcros blanqueados: hermosos por fuera, pero por dentro llenos de huesos de muertos y de podredumbre! Así también son ustedes: por fuera parecen justos delante de los hombres, pero por dentro están llenos de hipocresía y de iniquidad. ¡Ay de ustedes, escribas y fariseos hipócritas, que construyen los sepulcros de los profetas y adornan las tumbas de los justos, diciendo: 'Si hubiéramos vivido en el tiempo de nuestros padres, no nos hubiéramos unido a ellos para derramar la sangre de los profetas'! De esa manera atestiguan contra ustedes mismos que son hijos de los que mataron a los profetas. ¡Colmen entonces la medida de sus padres!

Mt 23,13-22. "¡Ay de ustedes, escribas y fariseos hipócritas, que cierran a los hombres el Reino de los Cielos! Ni entran ustedes, ni dejan entrar a los que quisieran. ¡Ay de ustedes, escribas y fariseos hipócritas, que recorren mar y tierra para conseguir un prosélito, y cuando lo han conseguido lo hacen dos veces más digno de la Gehena que ustedes! ¡Ay de ustedes, guías, ciegos, que dicen: 'Si se jura por el santuario, el juramento no vale; pero si se jura por el oro del santuario, entonces sí que vale'! ¡Insensatos y ciegos! ¿Qué es más importante: el oro o el santuario que hace sagrado el oro? Ustedes dicen también: 'Si se jura por el altar, el juramento no vale, pero vale si se jura por la ofrenda que está sobre el altar'. ¡Ciegos! ¿Qué es más importante, la ofrenda o el altar que hace sagrada esa ofrenda? Ahora bien, jurar por el altar, es jurar por él y por todo lo que está sobre él. Jurar por el santuario, es jurar por él y por aquel que lo habita. Jurar por el cielo, es jurar por el trono de Dios y por aquel que está sentado en él. Voz y Meditación Fr Pedro Brassesco. www.rosariodelaaurora.org

Marcos 12,18-27. Se le acercaron unos saduceos, que son los que niegan la resurrección, y le propusieron este caso: "Maestro, Moisés nos ha ordenado lo siguiente: 'Si alguien está casado y muere sin tener hijos, que su hermano, para darle descendencia, se case con la viuda'. Ahora bien, había siete hermanos. El primero se casó y murió sin tener hijos. El segundo se casó con la viuda y también murió sin tener hijos; lo mismo ocurrió con el tercero; y así ninguno de los siete dejó descendencia. Después de todos ellos, murió la mujer. Cuando resuciten los muertos, ¿de quién será esposa, ya que los siete la tuvieron por mujer?". Jesús les dijo: "¿No será que ustedes están equivocados por no comprender las Escrituras ni el poder de Dios? Cuando resuciten los muertos, ni los hombres ni las mujeres se casarán, sino que serán como ángeles en el cielo. Y con respecto a la resurrección de los muertos, ¿no han leído en el Libro de Moisés, en el pasaje de la zarza, lo que Dios le dijo: Yo soy el Dios de Abraham, el Dios de Isaac y el Dios de Jacob?

Pero las bendiciones que Cristo provee no solamente llenan el corazón, sino que son demasiado grandes para que puedan ser contenidas por ningún corazón ”(Comentario Bíblico de William MacDonald, p. 665). Como en un partido de ping-pong, Jesús y la mujer samaritana intercambiaron frases en un breve pero totalmente impactante diálogo. Te invito a seguir esta historia sin perder detalle. Estaban rompiendo todos los esquemas de la sociedad y estaban por romper muchos más. Jesús dio el toque final con su declaración: “Yo soy, el que habla contigo”, declarándose como el Mesías ante una mujer que tenía el terreno de su corazón fértil para recibir el agua de vida. Esa séptima intervención de parte de él quedó sin respuesta de parte de ella. Ya estaba todo dicho. Él había ganado la partida, sin humillar o avergonzar, sino aclarando y redimiendo. La mujer dejó su cántaro, fue a la ciudad e invitó a los hombres a ir a Jesús. Tuvo que reconocer su pecado, aunque no sabemos una ciencia cierta cuál fue la naturaleza de sus relaciones anteriores. Lo que sabemos es que esperaba al Mesías y no dejó que sus preconceptos la privaran de la salvación que estaba llegando ese día a su vida. J. Hudson Taylor dijo: “Algunos tienen celo por ser sucesores de los Apóstoles; yo más bien querría ser un sucesor de la mujer samaritana que, mientras ellos se ocupaban de la comida, se olvidó de su cántaro en su celo por las almas ”(ibíd, p. 666). Cada vez que a Jesús “le era necesario” hacer algo, había un propósito de salvación detrás. Ese aparente desvío en el camino fue sinónimo de salvación para un pueblo que estaba dispuesto a recibirlo, a diferencia de los judíos. Durante dos días, los habitantes de Sicar gozaron de la presencia de Jesús y los discípulos entendieron un poco mejor la naturaleza de la misión en que se embarcado. “El Salvador realizando hoy la misma obra que cuando ofreció el agua de vida a la mujer samaritana. […] A toda alma, por pecaminosa que sea, Jesús dice: 'Si me pidieras, yo te daría el agua de vida' ”(El Deseado de todas las gentes, p. 165). ¿Cuántas frases necesitará Jesús en su diálogo contigo hoy para moverte a la acción?

Edgar Cabanas: "¿Qué es la 'Happycracia'?"

"Creo que la felicidad existe como un negocio. En las últimas décadas ha sido una de las industrias que más fuertemente ha crecido y que más beneficios ha dado, porque capitaliza el malestar y se nutre también de él. Uno se puede preguntar cómo es que, a estas alturas, no seamos todos y todas ya felicísimos. La respuesta es obvia: ni existen tales claves para ser más felices, ni por tanto las ha descubierto nadie". Con este planteamiento crítico sobre discurso de la felicidad, Edgar Cabanas abre el debate entre la búsqueda del bienestar individualista y consumista, y un concepto colectivo y solidario de alegría común. "En cuanto convertimos la felicidad en una elección, automáticamente el sufrimiento también se convierte en una elección. Y, entonces, si sufres es porque de alguna forma quieres. El mensaje 'Si quieres, puedes' solo añade sufrimiento y culpa", señala. Edgar Cabanas es doctor en Psicología, investigador en la Universidad Camilo José Cela, en el Centro de Historia de las Emociones del Instituto Max Planck para el Desarrollo Humano en Berlín, y co-fundador de la red internacional de investigadores Popular Psychology, Self-Help Culture and the Happiness Industry. Ha publicado artículos científicos en las revistas Theory & Psychology, Culture & Psychology y Psicothema, y es co-editor de la serie Therapeutic Cultures en la editorial Routledge, y coautor de los libros 'La vida real en tiempos de felicidad' y 'Happycracia: Cómo la ciencia y la industria de la felicidad controla nuestras vidas'.

Lucas 16,19-31. Jesús dijo a los fariseos: "Había un hombre rico que se vestía de púrpura y lino finísimo y cada día hacía espléndidos banquetes. A su puerta, cubierto de llagas, yacía un pobre llamado Lázaro, que ansiaba saciarse con lo que caía de la mesa del rico; y hasta los perros iban a lamer sus llagas. El pobre murió y fue llevado por los ángeles al seno de Abraham. El rico también murió y fue sepultado. En la morada de los muertos, en medio de los tormentos, levantó los ojos y vio de lejos a Abraham, y a Lázaro junto a él. Entonces exclamó: 'Padre Abraham, ten piedad de mí y envía a Lázaro para que moje la punta de su dedo en el agua y refresque mi lengua, porque estas llamas me atormentan'. 'Hijo mío, respondió Abraham, recuerda que has recibido tus bienes en vida y Lázaro, en cambio, recibió males; ahora él encuentra aquí su consuelo, y tú, el tormento. Además, entre ustedes y nosotros se abre un gran abismo. De manera que los que quieren pasar de aquí hasta allí no pueden hacerlo, y tampoco se puede pasar de allí hasta aquí'. El rico contestó: 'Te ruego entonces, padre, que envíes a Lázaro a la casa de mi padre, porque tengo cinco hermanos: que él los prevenga, no sea que ellos también caigan en este lugar de tormento'. Abraham respondió: 'Tienen a Moisés y a los Profetas; que los escuchen'. 'No, padre Abraham, insistió el rico. Pero si alguno de los muertos va a verlos, se arrepentirán'. Pero Abraham respondió: 'Si no escuchan a Moisés y a los Profetas, aunque resucite alguno de entre los muertos, tampoco se convencerán'".

Los fariseos, en efecto, y los judíos en general, no comen sin lavarse antes cuidadosamente las manos, siguiendo la tradición de sus antepasados; y al volver del mercado, no comen sin hacer primero las abluciones. Además, hay muchas otras prácticas, a las que están aferrados por tradición, como el lavado de los vasos, de las jarras y de la vajilla de bronce.

OPINION DE SANTIAGO KOVADLOFF (FUTURO ESPERANZADOR) Y JORGE GIACOBBE (PLAN DE CFK Y LAS ELECCIONES 2021) JORGE GIACOBBE habló sobre la actualidad política y el actual Gobierno, al que describió como uno que tiene un "chivo expiatorio". En ese sentido, dijo que en los meses previos a las elecciones presidenciales, y antes de elegir a Alberto Fernández como candidato, Cristina Kirchner dijo que no iba a gobernar, pero "también dijo que no iba a ir presa". "Alberto pone la cara a las cosas y comete todo el garrón, mientras nosotros por lo bajo hacemos lo que realmente vinimos a hacer. Se parece a un matrimonio que va en un auto donde el hombre tiene el volante y la mujer al lado le dice: 'Si no doblas a la izquierda vas a ver lo que te pasa cuando volvamos a casa", dijo y agregó que Cristina sólo quiere lograr la reforma judicial, y que "el resto es maquillaje". "Lo que viene son más años de administrar miseria con un pueblo que está entrampado en la discusión de cómo hacemos para organizamos para ser cada vez más pobres y una dirigencia política que no tiene una idea de futuro", dijo. Con respecto a la muerte de Diego Maradona , aseguró que el Gobierno tuvo una intención política detrás de la organización del velorio, pero que "salió tan mal como todo lo que está saliendo ahora y la política no lo puede capitalizar ni para bien ni para mal". "Estamos tan atorados, están las cartas tan jugadas que cualquier cosa que se discuta no mueve nada. En los últimos dos meses, todo lo que ha pasado no ha movido ningún número", explicó. "Este es el nivel de incoherencia y la inteligencia de la dirigencia argentina que nos trajo hasta acá. No hay nada que pueda salir bien con este nivel de calidad humana", dijo haciendo referencia a la doble cara de la pandemia: un velorio lleno de gente en Plaza de Mayo y las aulas vacías durante más de ocho meses. Diputados: satisfacción en el Gobierno por la aprobación con cambios del proyecto que busca quitarle fondos a la Ciudad de Buenos Aires “Salvamos las papas”, aseguraron en la Casa Rosada. El jefe de Gobierno porteño, Horacio Rodríguez Larreta, responderá hoy al Gobierno en una conferencia de prensa “Es verdad que alguno de los nuestros están enojados, pero gracias a esos cambios salvamos las papas”, dijo un funcionario de Casa Rosada con el último suspiro antes de irse a dormir, hoy, después de una sesión que duró casi 18 horas, en la cual la Cámara de Diputados aprobó –con modificaciones– el proyecto del kirchnerismo para quitarle fondos a la ciudad de Buenos Aires. En el gobierno porteño, en cambio, el análisis fue inverso: “No nos conviene la ley que salió, porque la comisión para negociar otorga 60 días, pero si no hay acuerdo pueden laudar y obviamente que van a laudar contra nosotros”, lamentó un allegado a Horacio Rodríguez Larreta. Así, a pesar del esfuerzo que realizó Juntos por el Cambio para bloquear la aprobación de la iniciativa que ahora deberá volver al Senado para una segunda revisión y provocará daños severos al presupuesto porteño, el Frente de Todos logró una victoria, aunque pírrica. Sobre todo porque el quórum obtenido para abrir la sesión especial se logró con 129, ni uno menos ni uno más. Todo fue extremadamente exigido. Incluso cuando hubo que votar que la sesión especial estaba habilitada a funcionar en forma virtual, porque el compromiso había vencido el 30 de noviembre, y ya era 1º de diciembre. Otra vez, 129 votos.

Muchas veces hablamos en este podcast de conceptos como la resiliencia pero casi siempre de manera abstracta. Mi invitada de hoy, la periodista Irene Alonso, ha aprendido, a través de una experiencia personal devastadora, a muscular esta capacidad de afrontar la adversidad, sin dramas, ni victimismos. Con ella charlamos en una entrevista muy emotiva sobre el miedo, la incertidumbre, la empatía y la esperanza. Como dice mi invitada, "destruye las frases hechas. 'Si me pasa esto a mí, me muero'… No, no te vas a morir. El problema es que no te vas a morir. Tienes que salir de ésa. Echa de tu vida esas frases vacías y que son mentira". A veces, hay que ponerse en los zapatos de otro para no perder el foco de lo que, de verdad, importa.

Se le acercaron unos saduceos, que son los que niegan la resurrección, y le propusieron este caso: "Maestro, Moisés nos ha ordenado lo siguiente: 'Si alguien está casado y muere sin tener hijos, que su hermano, para darle descendencia, se case con la viuda'. Ahora bien, había siete hermanos. El primero se casó y murió sin tener hijos. El segundo se casó con la viuda y también murió sin tener hijos; lo mismo ocurrió con el tercero; y así ninguno de los siete dejó descendencia. Después de todos ellos, murió la mujer. Cuando resuciten los muertos, ¿de quién será esposa, ya que los siete la tuvieron por mujer?". Jesús les dijo: "¿No será que ustedes están equivocados por no comprender las Escrituras ni el poder de Dios? Cuando resuciten los muertos, ni los hombres ni las mujeres se casarán, sino que serán como ángeles en el cielo. Y con respecto a la resurrección de los muertos, ¿no han leído en el Libro de Moisés, en el pasaje de la zarza, lo que Dios le dijo: Yo soy el Dios de Abraham, el Dios de Isaac y el Dios de Jacob?

Revue de presse française - À la Une: la course au vaccin

Revue de presse française

Avec de « premiers espoirs », s'exclame Le Figaro en première page. « La course est lancée dans le monde entier pour trouver le plus vite possible une protection efficace contre le Covid-19, et les premières nouvelles donnent des raisons d’espérer, affirme le journal. Deux équipes indépendantes, en Chine et en Grande-Bretagne, ont testé avec succès leurs vaccins sur des singes, réussissant à les protéger contre l’infection. Par ailleurs, pointe encore Le Figaro, les premiers ­essais sur l’homme ont commencé, grâce à des investissements majeurs pour accélérer les recherches. Et, grâce au grand nombre de travaux simultanés lancés dans le monde, des techniques très différentes sont explorées pour aider notre système immunitaire à lutter contre le coronavirus. Une multitude d’approches qui augmente les chances qu’au moins l’une d’entre elles aboutisse dans quelques mois à un vaccin efficace, qu’il faudra alors réussir à produire très rapidement et en très grande quantité. » Pas avant un ou deux ans... C'est vrai, pointe La Croix, « la conception d’un vaccin comporte plusieurs étapes, qui prennent théoriquement quelques années. » Mais ce « délai pourrait être raccourci par l’extraordinaire mobilisation scientifique, affirme le quotidien catholique : 108 projets recensés par l’Organisation mondiale de la santé, dont huit, plus avancés, sont entrés dans une phase d’essais cliniques, notamment en Chine, au Royaume-Uni et en Allemagne. (…) Reste qu’il est difficile de savoir quand un vaccin sera disponible, relève La Croix. 'Si nous pouvons espérer des résultats positifs au premier semestre 2021, on doit ensuite pouvoir le mettre sur le marché. Cela rend les prévisions impossibles ', répond, prudent, Christophe d’Enfert, directeur scientifique de l’Institut Pasteur, qui a lancé deux projets. De son côté, Bruno Pitard, chercheur de l’Inserm rattaché à l’université de Nantes, toujours interrogé par La Croix, pronostique une disponibilité du vaccin dans un délai compris 'entre dix-huit et vingt-quatre mois'. » Un neuroleptique pour combattre le coronavirus ? Parmi les pistes de traitements pour combattre le Covid-19, il y a la chlorpromazine, un neuroleptique... C'est ce qu'annonce Le Parisien. « Et si l’on enfermait le coronavirus avec une camisole chimique ? L’idée peut sembler folle mais elle est pourtant prise très au sérieux par les autorités scientifiques. Pourquoi ? Au départ, explique Le Parisien, c’est une simple constatation qui place les médecins sur la piste de la chlorpromazine, le plus ancien traitement antipsychotique de l’histoire. À l’hôpital Sainte-Anne à Paris, dans les services de soins psychiatriques, les patients hospitalisés n’ont (presque) pas contracté le Covid-19 : 3 % d’entre eux seulement, contre 19 % du personnel soignant. Rapidement, les médecins se souviennent que de précédentes études ont démontré un effet antiviral de ce neuroleptique lors de travaux entamés dès les années 1980. » Dès lors, un premier test a été lancé dont les résultats sont plutôt concluants. Et un second test, sur l'homme cette fois, est en cours, portant sur 40 patients hospitalisés. Résultat : dans un mois. Le monde de la culture sinistré À la Une de Libération à présent, « culture, la détresse ». Avec en fond, pleine page, une reproduction du Cri, célèbre tableau de l'artiste norvégien Edvard Munch. Et c'est en effet un cri de détresse que pousse le monde de la culture, un des secteurs les plus impactés par la crise du Covid-19. « Librairies, théâtres et cinémas fermés, festivals annulés… Déjà sinistrés par le confinement, les milieux de l’art et du spectacle devraient encore pâtir après le 11 mai des règles de distanciation sociale. Ils guettent avec appréhension les annonces que devrait faire Emmanuel Macron ce mercredi. » En effet, commente Libération, « les recettes perdues, les billets invendus, les concerts supprimés, les livres restés dans les cartons, les films financés mais non tournés, les festivals reportés d’un an : tout cela ne se rattrape pas. Le monde de la création est désormais menacé d’une amputation impitoyable, dont il ne se remettra pas avant des années. Le gouvernement a ouvert grand ses coffres pour sauver Air France, l’industrie automobile et bien d’autres secteurs. On ne comprendrait pas, s'exclame Libération, que pour ces agents économiques aussi utiles que les autres, mais qui sont aussi des pourvoyeurs de sens, on convoque soudain une absurde pingrerie. » Tension au sommet de l’État... Enfin, il y a comme de l'eau dans le gaz entre Emmanuel Macron et Édouard Philippe... Les petites phrases piquantes du président en direction de son Premier ministre se multiplient ces derniers temps. Dernier exemple en date, pointe Le Parisien : « hier, alors qu’on lui demande s’il craint 'l’écroulement économique' du pays, formule employée la semaine dernière par le Premier ministre, le président répond du tac au tac : 'Non, je n’ai pas ces grands mots'. » « Voilà qui traduit une tension croissante au sommet de l’État », commente Sud-Ouest. Pour La Dépêche, « l’idylle politique entre le Président et le Premier ministre a fini par s’assombrir au point que, désormais, la question de l’avenir d’Edouard Philippe à Matignon se pose. » On n'en est pas là, estime Le Figaro : « une série de frottements ne fait pas un désaccord de fond. Et encore moins ne conduit à un divorce. Tant que la crise n’est pas suffisamment réglée, un changement de Premier ministre ne ferait qu’ajouter à la confusion ; et desservirait le président plus qu’il ne lui redonnerait de l’oxygène. »

Albert Espinosa es escritor, guionista, actor y director de cine, y una voz esperanzadora incluso en tiempos de confinamiento e incertidumbre. De su larga estancia en un hospital y una burbuja que le protegía frente a los virus mientras luchaba contra el cáncer aprendió grandes lecciones de vida. Había decidido retirarse de los focos y las entrevistas para dedicarse a la escritura de libros, series y películas, pero ha hecho una excepción para compartir sus reflexiones en esta entrevista. “Volveremos con mucha energía, nos reinventaremos, con lo cual podremos crear nuevas realidades. Pienso que eso es parte de la magia que estamos viviendo en este “intermezzo”, en este parar el mundo, que volveremos diferentes y lo cambiaremos todo”. “Mi padre hospitalario hablaba de una cosa muy bella, cuando yo tenía 14 años, a mí y a otros dos chavales que nos faltaba la pierna, el pulmón… Siempre nos decía que cuando saliéramos del hospital, cada año teníamos que parar el mundo una vez. Él llamaba “parar el mundo”, “intermezzo”, a salir del mundo para mejorarte y para mejorarlo. Y decía que cuando volvieses, el universo te premiaba, porque los que movían el mundo eran los que lo paraban”. [mediacenter_panel align="right" type="post" post_id="646276"][/mediacenter_panel] Albert Espinosa ha vendido más de tres millones de libros en 42 países, con títulos como ‘El mundo amarillo’, ‘Lo que te diré cuando te vuelva a ver’, ‘El mundo azul. Ama tu caos’, 'Si tú mes dices ven lo dejo todo… pero dime ven', o el más reciente ‘Lo mejor de ir es volver’. Con su película ‘Planta 4ª’, dirigida por Antonio Mercero, estuvo nominado al Premio Goya, y la serie televisiva ‘Pulseras rojas’, ganadora de dos premios Emmy, consiguió hacer viral su historia y la de sus compañeros de hospital más allá de nuestras fronteras, llegando a emocionar a Steven Spielberg, que se encargó de la versión estadounidense.

Jesús dijo a los fariseos: "Había un hombre rico que se vestía de púrpura y lino finísimo y cada día hacía espléndidos banquetes. A su puerta, cubierto de llagas, yacía un pobre llamado Lázaro, que ansiaba saciarse con lo que caía de la mesa del rico; y hasta los perros iban a lamer sus llagas. El pobre murió y fue llevado por los ángeles al seno de Abraham. El rico también murió y fue sepultado. En la morada de los muertos, en medio de los tormentos, levantó los ojos y vio de lejos a Abraham, y a Lázaro junto a él. Entonces exclamó: 'Padre Abraham, ten piedad de mí y envía a Lázaro para que moje la punta de su dedo en el agua y refresque mi lengua, porque estas llamas me atormentan'. 'Hijo mío, respondió Abraham, recuerda que has recibido tus bienes en vida y Lázaro, en cambio, recibió males; ahora él encuentra aquí su consuelo, y tú, el tormento. Además, entre ustedes y nosotros se abre un gran abismo. De manera que los que quieren pasar de aquí hasta allí no pueden hacerlo, y tampoco se puede pasar de allí hasta aquí'. El rico contestó: 'Te ruego entonces, padre, que envíes a Lázaro a la casa de mi padre, porque tengo cinco hermanos: que él los prevenga, no sea que ellos también caigan en este lugar de tormento'. Abraham respondió: 'Tienen a Moisés y a los Profetas; que los escuchen'. 'No, padre Abraham, insistió el rico. Pero si alguno de los muertos va a verlos, se arrepentirán'. Pero Abraham respondió: 'Si no escuchan a Moisés y a los Profetas, aunque resucite alguno de entre los muertos, tampoco se convencerán'".

Este pueblo me honra con los labios, pero su corazón está lejos de mí Hola, soy Alekz ¡Vamos a viralizar el Evangelio! Evangelio de hoy en audio, ¡suscríbete para escuchar siempre el evangelio del día! 11 de febrero de 2020 Martes de la quinta semana del Tiempo Ordinario Evangelio según San Marcos 7,1-13. Los fariseos con algunos escribas llegados de Jerusalén se acercaron a Jesús, y vieron que algunos de sus discípulos comían con las manos impuras, es decir, sin lavar. Los fariseos, en efecto, y los judíos en general, no comen sin lavarse antes cuidadosamente las manos, siguiendo la tradición de sus antepasados; y al volver del mercado, no comen sin hacer primero las abluciones. Además, hay muchas otras prácticas, a las que están aferrados por tradición, como el lavado de los vasos, de las jarras y de la vajilla de bronce. Entonces los fariseos y los escribas preguntaron a Jesús: "¿Por qué tus discípulos no proceden de acuerdo con la tradición de nuestros antepasados, sino que comen con las manos impuras?". El les respondió: "¡Hipócritas! Bien profetizó de ustedes Isaías, en el pasaje de la Escritura que dice: Este pueblo me honra con los labios, pero su corazón está lejos de mí. En vano me rinde culto: las doctrinas que enseñan no son sino preceptos humanos. Ustedes dejan de lado el mandamiento de Dios, por seguir la tradición de los hombres". Y les decía: "Por mantenerse fieles a su tradición, ustedes descartan tranquilamente el mandamiento de Dios. Porque Moisés dijo: Honra a tu padre y a tu madre, y además: El que maldice a su padre y a su madre será condenado a muerte. En cambio, ustedes afirman: 'Si alguien dice a su padre o a su madre: Declaro corbán -es decir, ofrenda sagrada- todo aquello con lo que podría ayudarte...' En ese caso, le permiten no hacer más nada por su padre o por su madre. Así anulan la palabra de Dios por la tradición que ustedes mismos se han transmitido. ¡Y como estas, hacen muchas otras cosas!".

Thiѕ ѕаfе аnd еffесtivе form оf nаturаl healthcare not оnlу hеlрѕ lеѕѕеn thе aches and pains of рrеgnаnсу but also рrоmоtеѕ a ѕаfеr аnd еаѕiеr birth. Gеntlе Chirорrасtiс аdjuѕtmеntѕ done thrоughоut рrеgnаnсу аrе bеnеfiсiаl tо bоth mоthеr аnd baby. Tо undеrѕtаnd how Chirорrасtiс hеlрѕ рrеgnаnt women, it'ѕ nесеѕѕаrу tо undеrѕtаnd the аnаtоmу of thе реlviѕ аnd utеruѕ. Thе реlviѕ is еѕѕеntiаllу a bоnу ring, with twо ѕасrоiliас jоintѕ ('SI jоintѕ') in thе bасk, аnd thе рubiс symphysis in thе front. Thе pubic ѕуmрhуѕiѕ iѕ thе spot whеrе thе pubic bones are соnnесtеd. Thе uterus ѕitѕ inѕidе this bony ring аnd is tеthеrеd to thе реlviѕ by thrее mаin ѕеtѕ оf ligaments. Thе Brоаd Ligаmеnt ѕurrоundѕ thе utеruѕ аnd аttасhеѕ tо the ѕidеѕ оf the pelvis оn the inside. The Rоund Ligaments аttасh thе utеruѕ tо the frоnt оf thе pelvis аt thе рubiс symphysis. Thеѕе аrе thе ligаmеntѕ thаt often produce sharp раinѕ during еаrlу pregnancy whеn a pregnant wоmаn ѕnееzеѕ оr turns оvеr tоо ԛuiсklу. Thе Utеrоѕасrаl Ligаmеntѕ аttасh thе utеruѕ tо thе back оf thе реlviѕ at thе ѕасrum. As thе bаbу аnd utеruѕ grоw, ѕtrеѕѕ iѕ placed on these ligаmеntѕ, diѕtоrting the ѕtruсturе оf the реlviѕ, lоwеr bасk, and mid-bасk. In аdditiоn, the ѕhift in thе рrеgnаnt woman's сеntеr of gravity, coupled with ѕignifiсаnt weight gain, causes еvеn more ѕtrеѕѕ оn these аrеаѕ, аnd the ѕurrоunding musculature. Tо tор it all off, рrеgnаnсу induсеѕ thе rеlеаѕе of a hоrmоnе саllеd relaxin. Aѕ уоu may have guessed, thе function оf thiѕ imроrtаnt аnd роwеrful hormone iѕ to аllоw thе ligаmеntѕ whiсh connect thе pubic bоnеѕ to rеlаx аnd separate, thuѕ аllоwing for dеlivеrу of thе baby. However, the еffесt of rеlаxin iѕ experienced thrоughоut all the ligаmеntѕ оf the bоdу. Thiѕ еxрlаinѕ whу mоmѕ-tо-bе experience so much раin аnd diѕсоmfоrt, еѕресiаllу in thе lower bасk. In аdditiоn, a misaligned pelvis can rеѕult in torque bеing рut оn the utеruѕ thrоugh itѕ ligаmеntоuѕ аttасhmеntѕ, which оftеn rеѕultѕ in malpositioning оf thе baby, intо a breech оr transverse роѕitiоn. Thе goal оf a сhirорrасtоr thrоughоut a woman's рrеgnаnсу iѕ to help kеер thе реlviѕ аnd ѕрinе balanced аnd properly аlignеd. Thiѕ аllоwѕ for the most comfortable рrеgnаnсу, аnd it еnѕurеѕ the рrореr funсtiоn оf the nеrvеѕ which exit the ѕрinе.

Así también son ustedes: por fuera parecen justos delante de los hombres, pero por dentro están llenos de hipocresía y de iniquidad. ¡Ay de ustedes, escribas y fariseos hipócritas, que construyen los sepulcros de los profetas y adornan las tumbas de los justos, diciendo: 'Si hubiéramos vivido en el tiempo de nuestros padres, no nos hubiéramos unido a ellos para derramar la sangre de los profetas'!

go with ladiesfirst rise if you could just tell us alittle bit about yourself and then afterthat if money you want to talk aboutyourself as well okay so I am co-founderof my gift and so we launched but mygift in 2017 but prior to that mybackground is working within HR so Iworked in London for several years for aluxury goods firm and then I moved upnorth and worked for the BBC as wellOh brilliant I'm you new University yeahso I I studied sociology at Universitythat was my BA I then went on to do mymasters in education policy at King'sCollege and then I did a second master'sin human resource management as wellfantastic yeah money about yourself yesso I went to university Aston Universitywhere as well we met yeah yeah feelslike a long time ago and then graduatedin 2010 and wasn't sure what path Iwanted to take and my family wasinvolved in family businesses and thingsI've always been involved in that so Inaturally took that path I felt like itwas the right thing to do and I've beeninvolved in that ever since I'm stillinvolved in that heavily and me and Rosshave known each other over eight yearsnow we got married in 2015 and yeah wedecided to take this chance with Bill mygift in 2017 and we haven't looked backreally okay thank plastic so it'sinteresting that obviously Rhys you knowjust collecting masters which isn'treally directly I suppose linked to kindof entrepreneurship and business whatmade you go into that was that kind ofManny's influence because obviously he'sfamily into business before or was itsomething that you've always wanted todo it isn't really at all I thinkworking within HR that's something thatI was really passionate about and Ireally did enjoy it was just really thewe stumbled across an idea that wethought there was a gap in the market wemulled over it for you know severmonths and then we decided to take theplunge and I suppose with hisentrepreneurial background we kind ofthought okay well we do have someexperience and some skills to bringforward and we can kind of merge the twoobviously with me working with withinthe luxury goods sector as well we couldkind of bring those together combined tonot block my gift brilliant okay so howdid the build my gift idea come aboutthen so advisers just touched on youlook at your skills and what you canboth bring to the table how did thisconcept come about because I want thelisteners to understand this I have usedthis so it's not something that I'm justsaying yes oh good yeah gift it makes mylife so much easier yeah because when itcomes to giving gifts for loved ones andstuff it's literally if it's for you foryour parents or you you're at the heartand go and they just let all theseamazing wonderful things but again I'lllet you guys go into that yeah so howdid the idea come about I think that mycousin actually was in hospice talk thisis going back at the beginning of theyear we launched and and we were mullingover you know what's what's a good giftto give her you know flowers and thingsand so standard these days and the sameold thing and a lot of hospitalsactually don't even allow him and wewere thinking and rats was thinking youknow wouldn't it be nice if I could justget a few things from different placesand put a gift together and build a nicebox for her and but it would just takeme forever and I was like that'll takeyou for a ages and hey who's got time toshop around and to do the research tofind a box to wrap it up make it looknice and then send it that's it there'sso much effort and time and maybe youwill get the odd person who's willing todo that but 99% of people think you knowthat's a bit much and then we said youknow there's nothing out there that'slike that there's nothing out there thatactually fits that kind of gap in themarket that we're thinking and then wemodeled it over B research and researchand research you know it's important todo that and we've thought it over and weyou know the name was important and thewebsite and everything and so yeahthat's how it really came about that'sinteresting so that's your story behindit there I never actually knew that oneyeah one of the reasons I support isbecause I always support my friends andfamily's businesses as I always advocatepeople should do and it is a fantasticthing like I've used it once also thisis so easy this yearand then why did is a Tamil mom to doyeah so I'm trying to spread the weightbut I think that story's reallyimportant as wellyeah because I'm pretty certain there'sthere's listeners out there who have gotthat same predicament whether it'ssomebody in hospital or whether it'sjust that special occasion or somethingand you guys I mean through your websiteand stuff you just make life so mucheasier it's trying to bring peopletogether make relationships strongerbasically that's what you know thepremise of the business that's what it'sall about the foundation I've built mygift it's trying to keep peopleconnected and we've got orders coming infrom you know Australia to be deliveredin London from the UK to be delivered inNew York so it really is connectingpeople all around the world yeah becauseI think a big part of us as a couple andmaybe you know our culture in general isrelationships meet you know should bestrong Kingdom strong and and I alwaysbelieve that you know you might notalways see each other but if you messageeach other or send a gift you knowsomething between you have relationshipis so strong and that's the wholepremise like Russ said about don't mygift it's all about letting that personknow you thinking about them and youknow we make it easy you know it's it'sI don't want to obviously boast about isthat it wouldn't make it so easy and andyou know it's literally three steps andit's done so so he was the brains behindwas it I would say Russ to be honest Ihaven't heart you know Russ isdefinitely more creative yeah she shehas been the forefront of the businessand I still divide my time between thisbusiness and my family business okaywhich it means sometimes you know mybrain is a bit it's hard to juggle thetooth and whatnot but rath definitely issomeone who knows what she's doing whenit comes to business yeah fantastic okayso what I want to know then so I like tounderstand the life of an entrepreneurand successful people and like theirdaily habits because I'm just I'm justintrigued by that because I think as alisten if there's somebody out there whowants to perhaps become an entrepreneurdo something out of the norm I thinkhabits and discipline is reallyimportant at least for myself so what'sa dayin BMG no my gift for you both from themoment you wake up oh there's no anotherthing any entrepreneur will say there'sno day is the same really and it couldbe kind of you know one of our peakoccasions so Christmas Valentine'sMother's Day and all we'll be doing isorders preparation of orders to getthose out you know there might be otherthings such as top management we may beout and we may have a day full ofmeetings so business development youknow networking opportunities it reallyreally does vary day to day to be honestin value and you split your time are youdoing two separate things or are youkind of working together on those tasksthat you mentioned that we do worktogether so if we if we have you knowfocusing on business development for aday we'll always try and set aside atleast a day a week or a day fortnightwhere we are going to take you know taketime out of the business to go out andabout and meet people say potentialcustomers potential corporate clientsthings like that really and alsopotential suppliers too but again youknow if it's orders we take time when wework together to ensure that thoseorders are fulfilled and we get thoseout then time what we tend to do is thenight before every single night beforethe next day we'll make a list pretty ofwhat we're going to do the next day Russis kind of the king the king of aboutjobs and I'd like to do that I think webeat one thing that's very similar aboutus is we'd like to take off listen welike to cross things off you know thelonger the list the more you think thatmorning actually this is what we've gothead this day organizedyou know if it's a meeting that day wewill be you know make sure that we takea laptop and that we if we're going on atrain we go Wi-Fi and we're stillemailing constantly got to be you've gotto be available for customers forsuppliers for potential clients as wellcorporate clients are always on the goyou know we're always available on thephone or an email as well whether youknow we're gonna meet teens or whatnotfor their yeah I think that's a reallyimportant point because that risetouched on being an entrepreneurnowadays the same mm-my probably worsttrait is that I find myself firefight inevery day so the day kind of dictates mehmm it doesn't happen all the time whenI'm disciplined and I've got my routineI kind of do what you guys do I'm infull flow and I enjoy it so that'ssomething I'd recommend to listenersjust plan your day before because whathappens is you wake up you pick up yourphone you look at your Facebook and youremails and all of a sudden you'reresponding to the world as opposed to dowhat you need to do in order to moveforward so that's really interestingjust on that then so I know this I knowthe answer but just for the listenerscould you just then maybe tell us someof the clients that you work withbecause I've seen some big names andyou've done some amazing things andwe're really fortunate and lucky to beworking with some great corporateclients out there at the moment and morerecently we've just secured anopportunity with Adobe so one of thebiggest tech firms in the world reallyso we're really excited at theopportunity to be working for themanother kind of couple of clients we'vegot a courier and logistics firm that wework with so and BJ's home delivery wework with a local business in Cheshirewe're web-based to flow create and weare also working with the DorchesterHotel in London - wow that's fantasticand you've also been in shops as wellyeah so we did a pop-up store overChristmas in Topshop and Oxford HighStreet I can ask that yeah holidays andI mean it was a it was a massive massivething for us you know it was theflagship store and we couldn't have beenin a more centralized position in thewhole world essentially comes to lookgreatas far dessert and we were you know wewere stretched I'm be honest respectinand a whole operation to London but itwas it was a massive thing so it's ahuge kudos to a company to be thereabsolutely yeah and you just said you afirefighter I suppose sometimes that'show you learn yeah and obviously nexttime you're better equipped yeah I'myour person no that's fantasticokay so we've touched on just a coupleof ups and downs there as with anentrepreneur it's a life of ups anddowns for anyone that tells youdifferent they're lying at least that'smy opinion yeah definitely yeah what'sbeen the main obstacle and sincestarting your journey in build my giftand how did you overcome this well lastyear we featured for the first time onTV this morning which is a massive thingbut you don't realize how much differentit actually happens to you when ithappened we were like okay this is bigyeah you know are we you use this andlytx tool that tells you how manyvisitors you have on the site and andyou were used to usually seeing maybedouble figures maximum is going totriple figures and I was flying thisflying this is at one time you knowvisitors to the site at a time and itwas flying to the extent where the sitecrashed and you know okay that's onething but a number of orders came in nothundreds of orders that come in and wewere like okay this is amazing you knowwe made it this is amazing but then yousuddenly realize well we've got tofulfill these orders and Mother's Day isaround the corner Mother's Day I thinkthey add right on the Wednesday andMother's Day was on the Sunday bearingin mind Saturday delivery isn't reallyan optionmm-hmm unless people have paid extra Iwas eating into your you know you wouldgive profits really so you knowoperationalize it was a very bigchallenge you know at the time that wasjust the two of us we had family supportbut you know family will always supportyou but they'll never know the businesslike you do boss of course um so yeahalthough it was an obstacle I think itwas a great opportunity as well but areally good learning curve I didn'tanticipate the demand and it was it wasgreat you can never know that demandyou know anyone unless they've been inthat world that before they will neverknow of course what will happen and ourbusiness although it's make it simpleit's easy we put a lot of effort intoeach gift we want it to look nice wewant it to be special when that personopens it so you know when you've gothundreds of orders to do it's difficultto achieveyou know you've got to find a balancebasically and it was I mean we we did itup until about 5:00 a.m. that my twohours and we're up at 7:00 a.m. yougotta work with over there yeah yeah youknow recommendation and loyalty andreviews of massive businesses like anye-commerce business and and for us youknow you've got to make sure you do itrightfantastic and I can't promise you thesame recognition as this morning fromthis podcast just to get at least fivesix whatever it is because I'm veryconfident that whoever does buysomething from yourselves similar tomyself don't be a repeat customer yeah Imean when I signed six months agodone it like three or four times yeahand it like I said it's so much easierthan googling around and then trying tofit something from Amazon there'ssomething from eBay or whatever it isso yeah you know I would say you know atleast one in ten customers is a repeatguys taking time to really make surethat you think about how you present itbecause it's presented a nice anddefinitely all packaged in thereeverything yes I'm fantastic good stuffokay so what's the best thing aboutowning your own business I think theflexibility to make decisions your wayultimately if you're employed bysomebody else you have a manager who youneed to maybe cross-reference somethingwith and the final decision on certaincertain matters will be made by theirmore people more senior to you and soreally all of the decisions in ourbusiness are made by us so having thatfreedom to do that really it's quitenice would you agree money I think yeahdefinitely I think another thing that Ilove about this business is the factthat you meet new people you know you'remeeting people you're growing yournetworkbefore we started this journey I do feelas that as much as you know peopleyou're very close as a person you youonly want to know people who you kind ofbump into already in life and whatnotyou're not going you're not puttingyourself out there you're not really youknow attending events and parties thatwe are now you know you don't knowyou're not really experiencing that sideof life and then now we do we putourselves out there we attend awardshows we attend networking events weattend meeting after meeting withmassive corporate people who we neverwould have met before and you know Isometimes that can pitch myself andthink well you know we're just in theDorchester Hotel absolutely meeting youknow they're client services directorand when when would we ever I was justtalking to her about cricket you know itkind of opens a whole new world for youand which is only become possiblebecause of this business and the hardwork you guys have wait that's rightyeah and the worst thing about owningyour own business so you're not going toknow everything about running thebusiness I suppose and it's always goingto be bookkeeping that's the worst thingyou know paperwork and the admin side ofthings and that can be quite heavy andyou want to be focused on doing all thecreative fun elements of the businessbut you also have to keep those gaps youdo the basics as wellI can't think actually what what elsewould I would say sometimes I do thinkthat you know with us being married mmmthe business has taken over a lot of ourconversation a lot of recipes you knowpressing and everything in our livesbecause it's just that it's a massivepart of us sometimes I don't know Russsometimes feels this as well as that youknow has it almost become as if you knowour business has become us and we'velost each you know as a couple who wework for that it kind of it's hard toremember a time before the businessalthough we haven't you know it's onlybeen two years or so but it's hard toremember a time when it was just me andher and I understand that yeah Iunderstand that for a simple fact thatI've obviously try to juggle multiplebusinesses myself yeah my wife worksfull-time and then she's coming home toanotherfor business and literally we don't seeeach other as we're in the same housebut and if we do see each other in factit's probably from our peripheral visionbecause we're like this yeah and Iforward and we're just way it happensthey're working that we're on where theysaid that and today actually it's thefirst time we're going for a meal andI'm actually really looking forward toit because similar to what you just saidthere I was like cher like we haven'tspoke about life we're just us oranything you don't want it you don'twant to forget that yeah and this was upto you I was gonna ask you guys so I canimagine it is brilliant because yourbest mates you're married and you you'reon this vision and you creating thisamazing business but then you are gonnahave that aspect of the whole you mustdo bicker do you have I think you knowas any relationship you will always haveyour little bickering moments but Ithink when it comes to the business wealways put those aside no matter whatbecause we share that common goal andwe're so motivated and determined tomake that success so you know we mayhave had a small little petty argumentover something but when it comes to thebusiness we move on I think the businesshelps and hinders and those things thatit helps in the sense that and sometimeslibrary said if you've got it you knowany any couple could sometimes have aminor minor it should be deter but ifyou've got a common goal that commonlove which is the business you puteverything aside for the business andyou know you get over something egoasari quick so listen what moves thisbusiness for exactly exactly and yougotta think you could have been matureand you've got to think you know forgetyeah you know forget that my food wascalm and but you know similarly becausewe are working together in a business24/7 you spend so much time with eachother you talk constantly even whenyou're not with each other we're textingabout the business or not it can lead tosometimes you know you know minordisagreements the wrath sometimes hasher opinion on something sometimes Ihave my opinion on how we should dosomething and you are gonna have thatkind of election that's inevitable Iknow two people who work in a businesswho aren't married are gonna have thatsame issues absolutely absolutely soyeah yeahyou know each of this opinion andactually then finding a middle groundbut the fact that we're married allowsus to kind of be honest you know ifyou're if you're doing if you're runninga business with somebody that you don'tknow so well or as a friendit's can be awkward how about you sagehave that conversation or be honest asthey'd like I don't like your idea youknow I don't think you do the rightthing here but with me and Rass you knowwe've known each other for so long voiceof course you can be so honest I'll sayexactly - yeah and that she dances ahthat's good but you know that you youknow you have that kind of love for thatperson that you accept what they saysometimes you know you might take a bitbut then it's fine because you'remarried in this you know it's this nomore so and at the end of the day andthe key thing is you both want eachother to win that's right and you bothwant to win and I I did that sigh youknow I've had to put my ego aside andstuff as occurs sometimes you wanna winthe argument and I was immature back inthe down I was always trying to win theargument where is now it's like if I winthe argument and upset my wife then whoreally wins here like anything we bothrelease so now it's like actually I wantthat person to win so let's just look atit rationally hmm and then what musesFalls so yeah exactly exactly a nothingvery mature yeah yeah I love itokay so one piece of advice that youcould give to somebody now who's maybethinking you know I'm in a nine-to-fivesimilar to how you guys could have beendenied two fives coming out ofuniversity raspberry they're ten mastersso you think in I'm gonna just jump intoa job what advice would you give themjust one piece of advice in terms ofgoing into entrepreneurship I would saymake sure you know exactly your industrythat you're going into research your lotyeah your market your competitors whatyou're offering you know make sure it'sit's something that you know thatindustry inside out because if you takea risk and you go for something likethat and you know you kind of fall shorta little bit you know your firstimpressions everything to people if youdon't get your website up to scratch andif it is an e-commerce business forexample or if you don't know what you'redoing is in meetings and things and youkind of you leave a lasting impressionyour first impression is important he'llbe spend a lot of time perfecting ourprocess our offering as a product thebrands that we work with and the websitetweaking and tweaking we delayed ourlaunch and we delayed and delay thepeople who like what you're doing you'regonna miss Christmas you know whatyou're doing and but we were like it'simportant that the website is top-notchbecause if it's not people will rememberand then work on that of course you'vegot premium products yeah exactly yeah Imean our business is all about you knowpremium and while known brands and ifyou want to work alongside those brandsand you want to come across like thatyou need to make sure there is noamateur and nothing is along the chainbecause that's your market audience yesI would say that personally mm-hmmya know 100 percent I mean although wehad the initial concept I'd say at thestart of 2017it was researching that and then youknow going into launch so it was a lotof back-and-forth a lot of perfectingand getting things right and we didn'tget it perfect even then you know andyes you may launch a business and thingactually yes this is great but it'staking on board feedback from customersfrom the people around you your networkand and continuously improving on thatas well I agree I love the word perfectexists in terms of like business or no Iever you do because there's alwayssomething and we are our own biggestcritics as well ya know something andwhat we always try and do is the bestthat we can do in that momentya know in hindsight we let this historyyou know I lost can't be my time that Isaid oh I wish I'd said that yeah surethan that and we even on the way heresaid let's make a few notes because Idon't want to leave this podcast andthink oh you know what I could havegiven this advice I think you won'tforget happens in the time you haveforget to ask you something yeah but iswhat it is but hopefully after thisyou'll get people reaching out to youguyssliding into DMS and then moreimportantly easing bill my gift so yeahdefinitely you'll be fine okay so what'syour motivation then moving forward nowto the end of this year what one thingwould you like to happenthey really grow the corporate side ofthe business and when we first launchedbill my gifts it was focused on the BTCmarket and that's the online platformthat we had but you know BTC for thelisteners join expand on that sorry yesmr. consumer market side of the businessso and we had the online platform ofcourse but for us you know we really dosee there is potential and opportunityfor the corporate side of our businessand to continue growing and building onthat is really really important for us Ithink oh yeah yeah definitely I think wesee a lot of potential with corporateand weddings I don't know if you'venoticed we've started working with moreand more businesses like you said andand wedding planners and things likethat and when we first launched thebusiness we didn't have any idea aboutthis thing you know we we felt like itwas an opportunity said we needed a giftthat we wanted to give someone and wejust thought I wouldn't be nice for aneveryday person to have to access thisand no idea that you know this this kindof a kind of model would work forbusinesses it would work for events andwork for wedding for couples all sortsof things and as you go along you learnmore and more and we've really grownthat side of the business especiallyback end of last year and the beginningof

onto your websitefind and then give to their loved onesyeah so I am I suppose it's really forany occasions and whether it's abirthday gave to get well soon gift andyou home gift and you baby gift maybethe list goes on so any occasion we'vepretty much got it covered and at themoment we have more than 500 productsthat you can go on and select and buildher own gifts we also have a prebuiltgift section so if you want it to beeven more easier than it already is youcan literally select one of ourpre-built gifts and check out fantasticanything time I mean yeah I mean like Isaid we've got massive array of productsbut we're always looking to expand we'realways looking to you know what's onetrend what's cool what can fit fordifferent types of people for differenttypes of budget for different types ofoccasions and you know that's that's thebeauty of Bill my gift there's this veryrare that you can find everything all inone place and um you know you you couldshop for your mom's 50th but at the sametime you'reneighbors had a new baby then you canbuy the both gifts at the same time allin the same place but then within fiveminutes you know and it's really simplewe've got a massive range of productsthat help stores every occasion so yeahI mean like russ explained I thinkthat's I think that's everything yeahthere you go so it's like kind of like aone-stop shop one-stop shop yeah I justwant to touch on something that youmentioned there is all you've got 500products and you're also openpotentially to other products as wellyes and we're always growing our productportfolio always looking to take on newbrands again as we've been to 2019 we'veyou know been in touch with several newbrands and we're going to be taking themon board and introducing them to thesites they're always open to newfantastic so if anyone's out there witha product or something as well maybe getin touch with it's definitely definitelywe always were always approached by byyou know companies as members who haveproducts and we are very open and we'renot dismissive we will always at leastgive it a chance to look at it and readup on it and if we fill is somethingthat adds value to our business and toour you know offering as a gift box thendefinitely we'll look into it reallyyeah like Russ said we've taken on Ithink two or three new brands in 2019it's all about staying fresh and yeahabsolutely yeah no no it's reallyinspiring and just all concept obvi Imean we started the interview and youspoke initially about the story behindit and how you were saying how difficultit's gonna be to get a couple of giftstogether like a hamper set that's rightget it all coordinated here you are nowwith 500 products I just find thatreally yeah yes very passionately Ithink sometimes we're we're so here andnow and we don't think you know theachievement to get here yeah absolutelythat's my only lunch produced right yeahbecause we're always seeking what's nextthat's where I forget yet we're alwayswe're so used to seeing most productsthat they're that we don't even thinkjust look back and think look at allthat how we got I remember your firstsnapchat summit yeah yeah yeah you guysyeah you know at the beginning of myremember what we what was our first Ithink we used to have supplies that nowwhy why did we even have those things atleast that got us through the door youknow and we're lucky I mean I'm verylucky that I you know through our familybusinesses I've connection for somewholesalers who then allowed us theopportunity to kind of get stock inAndrus has a connection with luxurycompanies and from her previous jobswhich have allowed his connections thereso it is really about making use of yourcontacts absolutely and then growingyour network in absolutely ivory yournet worth is based on your networkthat's right and sometimes we fail toactually tap into our own network mm-hmmand even myself so from propertyperspective I didn't realize how manyplumbers I knew how many conveyance isthat I knew like brokers all within likemy family it was only when you startcoming out and you saying I'll do thisand then people start reaching out toyou so I'd always implore people likethere to kind of firstly understand yournetwork and then your networks then workbecause that's where the magic isdefinitely yeah actually really justbefore we get to the final question andthat always I tasked my guess is aboutreflection so if you guys could go backmaybe to when you first I'd bill my giftand that first idea came and you knowingeverything you don't know what one pieceof advice would you whisper in the earsof yourselves I think be more bold andjust put yourself out there I love thatyeah again like I said you know you goto events and things in at the beginningwe were maybe bit hesitant engagement ofpeople and build your network and but werealized as time goes on that is soimportant to do those things and so Iwould definitely say that as well yeahfantasticbrilliant so sadly work the lastquestion now of the interview so yeah ifFinn hundred fifty years time sciencefails to save us and all that's left isa book and it's about your life and itexplains to your journey a little bitabout you basically your inspiring storywhat would the title be and what wouldbe blown say to make somebody want topick it up and read itso we did give this a little bit thoughtand so I think it would be good thingshappen to good peoplehmm I think I was I would like it to sayI think I've always been somebody wholikes to see the good in everything anddo good by people and so I'd like to beremembered for that as well love thatokay I'm not gonna put you on the spotif you both had that together would youagree is that kind of where you you'dwant to be remember yeah definitely Ithink you know there's there's anentrepreneurship but there's also youknow your life and in life we both tryto be good people we try to do right byour family and everyone around us and itis difficult sometimes to balanceeverything you know you want to beselfish sometimes and think aboutyourself and think about your businessbut you have to think about everythingyou know the grand scheme of thingsand balance everything and do the rightthing which I think we both do I thinkwe agree we always think you know otherrepercussions to this you know should wedo this should we do that and I think ifin 20 years time 100 years time like andwe used to look back and people wouldsay you know what they made the rightdecision by everybody they didn't justthink about themselves and this door wassuccessful diversity a lot of storiesthey're successful but they've had tomake a lot of enemies along the way youknow they've had to be very selfish andI'd like to think that we weren't

interviewokay so firstly I just want to thankcause for coming on to the show todayand for all you listeners who are heresupporting our movement so my friend howyou doing today good morning I'm goodnot as early as you Baba fantastic youlike to hear you well we've had a bit oftechnical issues and it is slightlyearlier than normal so excuse our voicescool so you've heard the introductionI've explained

you basically progressthrough life and ended up where you aretoday so if you wouldn't mind my friendif you could just give us a rundownbasically of the life of cause the lifeof course easily hey I think it's bestto start where I am now and then kind ofgo through how I got here so I'm aqualified charted accountant soundsriveting ah no he says exciting as itsoundswhoo guys recently qualified in Decemberand in the new year I've gone part timeto kind of tramp pursue my own endeavorsin life so starting from the beginning Iwas stopped when I was born because I'mquite old now or in my own eyes I'm oldbut I don't like to use the word sufferbut I've had anxiety my whole life andnow been listening to your your showshaven't they been amazing by the way Iappreciate that thank you just listen toyour different guests you know strugglesthey've had to go through and obstaclesthey face for me I've always felt itdifficult to kind of ask for helpbecause I've had I've had such a goodlife in something upbringingand the situation I'm in I've hadamazing parents I've never had to askfor anything not that was slow in anysense but I was given everything Ineeded clothes water the essentials andthat but from an early age I just felt Iwas different kind of like I had thesevoices in my head I used to think it wasit was good it was someone else I reallydon't know what it was and I find thiswent through life with it at school Inever really felt like I fit in whereason the outside poori it probably seemedlike I was that guy good at his workgone along with people but I kind ofquiz my anxieties I threw myself into mywork so I think into studying into beingthe best I can in that sense so I justdidn't feel comfortable socializing Ididn't feel comfort with myself and thensaw some much easier CSIS etc I left forsix oneI changed sixth one then and that's whenI started to spiral a bit looking backnow it's funny because I can see all mycatalysts I can see why I feel the way Ididwhere is at the time I just had no ideawhat's going on I'm just in my own mindso for me what gets me a look is changeand uncertainty and new things andespecially socializing in in newenvironments so change into a new sixthform with people I didn't know newsubjects just threw me off completelyand it might sound stupid some peoplebecause this is such a simple thing butfor me the biggest fact thing anyone canhandle is their own mind and that'ssomething I've always struggled with yesI might not have had big thermal in mylife a lot of people have but a lot ofpeople live in with their own minds andtry about that every day and people needto appreciate thatit is hard for a lot of people mm-hmm soyeah went to I went to six-month pickingup from then and firstly was extremelyhard for meI was probably on the debts ofdepression where it's back then I thinkwe know what the pressure was so Ididn't really see as that I just felt itwas me so my family helped me through alot I got through a levels my secondyear beta it was great because I wasmore comfortable in my environment andthen applied for university got goodgrades and got into UCL to studyeconomics and I think at UCL was thefirst time I really but I understandwhat the pressure was I start to gothrough it so I'm still living at hometraveling to London every day and justdidn't feel like I fit in they're alwayscomparing myself to others that I wasn'tgood enough to be there and then Istarted getting suicidal food so I standon train tracks and my mind we kill himto jump and yeah I in my mind I've - Iknow myself cuz I've never had thosethoughts before and I'm in the past I'venever when I've heard people who commitsuicide or taken her own life I've neverunderstood it but in that moment and nowI've been through it that's the onlyplace you see confort is by not beinghere not being with your mindWow is that is that kind of a thing thatyou've you've convinced yourself that itwould just be better off yeah a hundredpercent it's like you explore differentoptions so when I start to feel anxiousor when I'm gonna extremely the prostateI start to looklook at the fact that across the greenon the other side so I was at UCO and Iwas saying to my momI'm gonna quit I'm just gonna get jobI'm gonna apply to a different Union I'mgonna do this I'm gonna do that I alwaystry and wash one away because then allthat anxiety all that all that hurt willbe gone and over you place intosomething new so that's the first time Istarted seeing a counselor Britt at UCoh and while I was at UCL I write toanother university again seeing that thegrass is green on the other side justwant to get out of it so I startedstudying for my exams at UCL it's aboutApril time and then I've gotconfirmation that I was given anotherplace at Royal Holloway University I'vebeen sorry okay and I thought to myselfyou know what it's not worth the toiletturn won't burn through I'd literallywrite vice for all my exams the weekly Iwas gonna sit there but I decided that'sit I'm not sitting them because I justwant this this kind of cloud to be overso I quit or I gave up UCL andstraightaway I just felt that count hasbeen liftedI felt so good then I was like you knowwhat this is what I need like my nextuniversity is gonna be amazing I'm gonnafind so yeah that summer was great andthen September moved up to roll away tostop my new course and in the same thingstarted comparing myself to others newsituation a lot of social anxiety Ididn't go out a lot in my first year andlike I'd hear people in the kitchendrinking and stuff and I just be in myroomjust with my own thoughts Wow and I'mglad today I have amazing friends andamazing flat I'm still in touch with andthat's friends with your good may aswellfears off so she helped me through a loteven if she doesn't know it and bygetting my first year of uni I wasthinking I need to apply to another uniit's gonna be better on the other side Ineed to take my course something to dothis I applied for a job and luckily youknow I was convinced to stay I lost myfirst year went on to the second yearand that is the biggest term like mylife is the second year I just spiraledout of control just in myselfamong thoughts just not being able tocall or be in social situations withpeople my first day my room up my mum mysister would always come and visit me tomake sure I was okay because they wereextremely worried about me of courselike I used to lock myself in my roomthen and research how to end my lifebecause it's the only way I can see anend to it and I knew how wrong that thatwas and the the only thing that stoppedme from ever doing it then was yes myfamily like what we do to them but I'mactually getting emotional saying thissorry man please take your timebut yeah the most it's really silly butthe thing that stopped me was I wouldn'tend my life right and my parent wouldhave to look after me and like her in astate where I think people looking aftermyself yeah sorry man no no I can onlyimagine what what you're going throughbecause my level of desire is nothingcompared to your level of depression andwe spoke briefly before we had thisinterview that you know it took the best8 years of my mom's life away and Ithink unless you live with somebodywho's going through or somebody it's sodifficult because from the surface Imean you look at your Instagram you lookat yeah the way the way you conductyourself your poetry which you're goinglater on in the interview it's just likethis kind of depression you know youjust know isn't no more that is itnormally is somebody you can relate tobut it's it's amazing how some it's notsomething so simple but something likeyour mind can just completely just yetturn your world upside down and it's oneof my favorite quotes ever and Iprobably say to myself at least six orseven times a week not because I do itbut because it just helps with thingsinto perspective and it's comparison isthe thief of joy you said that you hadins ie from a very young age and I meanI'm 32 now and I'm kind of peeling backthe onion layers using an analogy ofwhen I started getting anxiety and Ithink yes having reflected and lookingback at myself I'm able to find certainmoments in my life like when I was sixor seven I was atshit I was actually quite anxious thenand then maybe that's really kind ofsnowboard have you been able to in yourcurrent situation not be able to lookback and find these key triggers or haveyou always just known yourself to beanxious no a hundred percent if I knewone who I knew now about myself I couldhave controlled a lot of what happenedto me and not let it happencould you elaborate so my anxieties mycatalysts are changed like newsituations where that's a new job newUniversity a new subject I'm studyinguncertainty so I'm a perfectionist as Isaid before I used to put myself into mywork and just try and excel at that soif I'm not the best at something I startto get anxious might sound stupid butthat's just the way I am so it's notstupidso you've always had this in psyche yeahand now you knowing what you know nowyou've said you can obviously look backand think I could have changed stuffwhat kind of things I mean I'm thinkingpractical things here for somebody who'smaybe a little bit younger thanourselves who's going through thismoment they're just constantly anxioushave changed like yourself and being inthese kind of environments what wouldyou kind of say to them now the onenumber one thing does has helped me themost about anything is talking about itso talking about how you feel because Iwould often just keep everything balledup inside me and whereas today I'm openas hell honesty oh are you guys to swearon this podcast may you can do whateveryou want thank fuck for that that's finesome people might not like that but youknow sometimes it's one of the only waysyou can express it sometimes one or twoepisodes myself sonot a problem mate so yes second year ofuniversity extremely down I went to sawa doctor there who prescribed me afterdepressants and I'm back then I hadnever taken a tablet in my life not evena paracetamol just nothing I was justagainst putting foreign substances in mybody so I got prescribed down to theirpresence I went and got them but I didnot take them and I came back home forChristmas and I was just so so bad oneday my dad leave she just got me in thecar drove me off the sorry and when hemom didn't say hello to any of myhousematesjust went in my drawer guys I depresswe drove all the way back home to NorthLondon and I started taking them andthey helped me massively they're therethey're a tool for helping you they'renot a magic pill that's gonna makeeverything go away could you have to putyou have to put other things in yourlife that's gonna help you get throughbut they definitely help just balanceout the chemicals in your brain and theway you think think mm-hmm and so Istarted taking them must I've seen atherapist as well and then I startedgoing to the gym again so I was injuredat the time I got really depressed theymy substitute but I had a fun injuryokay that's unique yeah so I couldn'treally lift weights and so as soon asthat healed in the new year that's likea gym again I started feeling good Istopped them seeing my therapist eventhough he advised me to carry on and Ifinished my second year third year wasgreat really enjoyed it when I almost Ihad finished uni over to 1/2 percent offat first which again I beat myself upagain about don't beat yourself up todayI by the time I was in tears thatliterally so fun and and then yeahapplied for a job took me eight monthsto get a job and I had no idea what todo with my life was planned foreverything in anythink mmmgot over Owen into accountancy and thenstart here and then things that Ispiralling down again so and evenprobably even deeper depression I had inmy second year and the extreme thatsuicidal thoughts I just didn't knowwhat I want to do with my lifeespecially working full-time andstudying and studying for something youdidn't you didn't really want like Ididn't know if I wanted to be anaccountant up in all this effort into itwhat am i what am i giving to otherpeople what I'm given to the world bybeing an accountantthat's just how and I just didn't see medoing anything else so I I said to mymom not gonna quit and the Khan teachI'm gonna quit and do this and quit anddo that and my mom bless her she she'shelping me a lot but I know howfrustrating it is she understands fullyjohnstad 3 but I know how frustrating isto try and help someone who nothingseems to help themselves and you can seethe same things happening again in termsyou wanted to just change again to a newsituationso I stopped taking as the presents whenI was at Union swell after that Sigmaperiod and I was at work I cited themagain I'm slicing the therapist againand a major thing that helped me getthrough if I did not do this I would nothave qualified to try to count and I maynot be alive today I'm being honest withyou I told him what I told myself aboutmy depression so I went spokes inmanagers I went spoke the partners inthe firm and they were so so good aboutit honestlythat's brilliant like they helped memassively they put things in place forme and I felt I could go and talk topeople about it more mm-hm so yeah itwas tough as hell and I qualified aboutthis December just gone so I'm currentlyin the process of coming up mad for thepresents fantasticI'll be off them in about two weeks I'vedefinitely felt some side effects butthey start to wear off and I'm feelinggood about life now and the mostimportant thing about anything thatbeing through mum I don't like to usethe word happy up being through it I'mkind of I'm glad for which taught me andso six months ago if I was doing thispodcast review I know I was in tears alittle bit before but I would not beable to talk about this with withanybody whereas now I don't give a fuckI put it on Instagram I talk abouttrying to speaking about their feelingsespecially especially as a man today inthe society there's so much manypressures a lot of stance what about 100percent mate it's a it's an ego maybesurprise thing I don't know what it iswith guys we don't realize thatvulnerability is actually a truestrength and I spoke about thispreviously again I'd recommend if youcan listen to Lewis Howes I think he'sgot a book the mask of masculinity andit's a fantastic book because I think asguys you're doing something there thatis something that we don't do and I'mnot stereotyping it but how many of usreally talk about stuff when we feel ohbecause it's a bravado thing isn't it wecan't show weakness we can't show thatwe're feeling down or low and I thinkthe reason I was really interested ingetting you on this show is or becauseyou've touched on something there so wespoke about the social enterprise thatI'm working on with mywe're going to get back to mental healthand awareness the first question askedthough was what do you want like if weraise awareness is it money is it likematerialistic things what kind of thingswould make you guys feel better and shesays somebody should talk to you andthat brings us to the whole thing thatwe spoke about prior to this episode isI'm gonna open up just centers I'm gonnahire them for the day get people who aregoing through it people who haveovercome it to just maybe talk about itand I know that might sound like such asimple thing from the outside but you'vetouched on it now as wellthe world needs to speak it's thesimplest of things look us I say toeveryone I don't see anxiety as anillness this is my this is my personalopinion yeah everyone has anxiety butjust different levels of a spectrumdepression is the lowest of the low thusthat that's an illness that's somethingyou can you need to case of our but thedifference between me and the guyssitting next to me the only differencebetween us is I can talk about it now Italk about it that's the only differencethe guy still has anxiety 100% differentmaybe different levels different aspectsin his life but he just doesn't talkabout it that's the difference and bytalking about it which you've been doingmore openly now and some of it's throughyour poetry is all which is fantastic aswell have you genuinely seen like ashift in like your overall moods and didthe severity of your laws as well Oh100% like if I have a load they know ifI don't know they in the past I comehome and I keep all my stuff where it'sI come home now and thank what my sisteris my rock honestly I would not behonestly hands-down I would not be aliveabout her today and she has she's notbeen through depressiontouchwood and thank God but even so ashard it was for her to help me she wasjust there to listen even if she didn'tunderstand she was just there to listenand put small things in place to me forme and so yeah I remember this one timeat university when I was when I was homefor that Christmas when I was really badI had an essay to write and I told her Ijust can't do it I'm gonna quit but sheliterally sat down with me and made mewrite for five minutes at a time when wego and have a break and come back onwrite for five minutes so that's amazingyeah she's been amazing and you'refortunateto have that because there's so manypeople out there you may not necessarilyhave that kind of support network aswell yeah because like you've touched onit's an illness and it's because it'snot physical because it's not like yourthumb for example or yeah you knowsomebody's leg broken or something it'sit's internal and again because peoplearen't speaking what we're doing iswe're masking everything with it with itwith a smile or Facebook post orInstagram post but deep down we'verarely know what somebody's goingthrough exactly it's just scary and Ithink I think living with it is scary soI can only imagine what you're goingthrough so again I just want to saythank you for for really sharing thestory no problem I just want to say umthank what I've not been in the pressdate for about two and a half years nowyes I live with anxiety but I am knowingthat press date and I'm I will fight mymy utmost not to go back there and helpanyone else to come out absolutely andI'm not I'm not in a position to giveyou any advice having not been throughwhat you've been through but yeah thenthere's a simple quote we use it for ourfor our business that me or mom aregoing to start it's okay not to be okayyeah I don't know it sounds simple butit's so important that we understandthat because myself I mean I don'tsuffer with depression but I will wakeup on it on a Monday or a Tuesday itcould be any day of the week and I willbe in an absolute funk and I'm like whydo I feel like shit like nothing's gonewrong like you know my health is they'remy wife's happy my mom's finethere's nothing actually happened inthat day I've slept well but then youknow what you just you just feel reallylow and you got like no motivation andstuff and I used to beat myself up aboutthat because I just think I've got somuch stuff to do I need to change theworld I need to do this at least getmyself up now it's kind of like Iliterally say that quote to myself it'sokay not to be okay and all I'll do ison that particular day or do stuff likeI'll go to the gym I'll try and keep mynutrition as well as possible becauseobviously that helps your mind andeverything I try and speak with my wifeor my brother or my mom in the day justto kind of cheer me up and I might stillbe in a bit of a funk to the end of theday but the next day it all washes overrather than me dwelling on it and thenhating myself like throughout the weekthat kind of makes sense so it'sfantastic that it's been like two and ahalf years and there for yourself comingoff it but if you ever do find yourselfperhaps going a bit lower just knowthat listen mate you've come out of itso many times yeah kicking and fightingyou're doing great that it will be okayand you'll be alright you next thing Iappreciate I know and and such know whatyou said I've learned that saw so ondays from the rule of and you you won'tknow why but you just have to take sometime out for yourself and on those dayseven today I've made wake up and I mightfeel a bit low I know I know deep downthere is something causing that maybenot the day before maybe not on that daybut a week my ass something I didn'ttackle where it was on my to-do listwhich is still bugging me yeah orsomeone I didn't talk to or someone Isaid something to which is bugging mebugging me now and why I feel low so Ipersonally I think there's always a rootcause somewhere it's not always easy tofindmmm there's always something that'sthat's led you to feel that way I thinkyou're right there somebody elsementioned this actually I think it wason Episode three and it's about findingthat that deep meaning and I thinkbecause we're so most of us wake up inthe world whatever is on our phone or Iemail a job it will it will dictate ourdate we very rarely get time to sit backand actually reflect upon our life ourcircumstances in our situations and Ithink if we could do that probably haveless of those days because it isprobably a cumulative effect of thingspropping up and then you've got thislevel of like I don't know burden oranxiety or something that will kind ofjust hit you on one day and you'resitting there thinking what's going onhere but it's actually like you saidpossibly something that's that'shappened a few days ago that's powerfulso the funny thing is it's like there'sno like magic secret is there they'renot I mean if there was then the worldwouldn't struggle a bit like Fitnessyeah if we had the magic pill nobodywould be obese and it's kind of findingI suppose did you touched on it earlierhis voice you've got this toolkit nowyes the the antidepressant tablets helpyou control the chemical imbalancethat's going on but you've also got atoolkit of stuff that you've probablyhad through your therapist yeah thosewho probably gives you different toolsthat you can literally bring out as andwhen you need them because that's kindof how my mom explains it as well ahundred percent like I'm kind ofreinvent the tools they gave me to workfor meso something that I do massively when Ifeel extremely anxious I don't if you'veseen on my Instagram or that bar splitpage into and I'm one on one side Iwrite my negative feelings and emotionsand on the other side I write a healthypoint of view and it just helps meconceptualize how I'm feeling it kind ofbrings you out of my brain onto paperand kind of I can actually write down adifferent way of or view in it mmm yeahyour Instagram is brilliant and you'regonna get the oddest friend requests bythe way because I've asked my mom tofollow your Instagram because some ofyour stuff is like I can't get some ofit like I get like 80% of it send mebecause I've lived with my mom my momwas like my best well she is my bestfriend and and I'll sin what he's donelike taken away from her life so it'skind of I know that if she can read yourmessages and listen to your poetry Imean you know huh no gtv sorry yourstories your Instagram stories it willhelp and it resonate with her so yeahI'm obviously gonna put all the linksfor the listeners as well to know yoursocial medias at the end of it because Ithink it's really important that you'veseen someone who's yeah you you're notfully 100% over it at the minute butyou're dealing with it and you'redealing with it in the best way and eachtime you're getting better betterequipped and hopefully somebody who'sprobably earlier down the journey theycan benefit from yourself and this isthe whole point of this podcast is thatthey can learn from your your experienceof suppose and hopefully change theirlife for the better sooner exactlythat's that's the thing like I am NOTI'm not perfect I'm not free to stormyou never will because life justfrustrate you all the time I've come andbut the only thing I can do is just tryand help people through how I try tohelp myselfmmm and you are so yeah just try and beas real as I can on Instagram you knowlet people know how much it days becauseInstagram is a is a fake world really itisn't it's a highlight reel is which iswhy I appreciate like your content sokeep that going buddy I'm gonna switchthe pace a little bit now so I know someof the stuff that you do on a dailybasis but I think it's important for thelisteners who have heard about yourstory to understand what your dailyroutine is like so I'm a big bigbeliever that we are the results of thethoughts we tell ourselves and reallyhabits and so what's your daily routinefrom the moment you wake up to themoment you go to sleep well or every dayis different and I'm not gonna I can'tlie to you hmmI don't have a daily routine I'm stilltrying to work out myself in terms of Iknow what what would work well for mebut I haven't put it in place so I'velistened to one of your podcast one ofyour early ones about the guy who usedthe miracle morning that's right yeahchin very good friend yeah I knew thatwas a great podcast by the way thank youso yeah I bet the miracle morning thingwas last year and I started putting alot of things into practice in themorning not felt great and but thenexams came around again from my accountsand I just fell off it well I havecertain things I do during a week ratherthan a daily routine a daily routine issomething I'm working on in 2019 okay Ineed to incorporate meditation I need toincorporate leaving my phone out of myroom in the end of the day because thatjust adds to anxiety mm-hmm so thingsthat I do on a weekly basis to try andhelp me and relieve my stress is numberone you probably see a lot on InstagramI love my Costa Coffee yeah I love goingthere by myself taking a book readingmaybe writing some poetry just sittingthere watching the world and just beingcomfortable in my own thoughts I love myalone time now and another big thingdaily is Jim obviously so I usuallythrough that after work and it literallyjust puts me in a difference day ofnight it's almost like meditationabsolutely almost like meditation andyou're just there with your own thoughtsmusic in or not and you're justconcentrating on pushing the way upyou're not thinking about your pastdecisions you made you not think aboutthe future you're just in that momentthere and then so that helps memassively another daily routine mealprep obviously every morning but yeahI'm I'm still learning I'm stilllearning about routines and I will haveit together soon but like you've toucheddown there even myself my routinechanges from like year to year becauseyou always you're almost tweaking it soI've done the whole waking up at 4:00a.m. and then working my ass offbut then what would happen is at twoo'clock in the afternoon you not crashand let's sleep for like an hour and ahalf because I'm absolutely knackered sothen I was like this is pointless and sothen I mixed it up and now it's likeI'll wake up at 6 or 7 it depends onbasing my day so if you'll get an earlypodcast or I forgot like an investormedium or something like that then I'lltweak it but generally speaking I don'treally care what time I wake up becauseI believe it's what you do in the daybut you've got some great habits inthere like like the gym the meal prep Imean that you're feeding your bodyyou're feeding your mind there so it'sabout utilizing your time and takingchunks out of the day where you canreally be productive in terms ofwhatever your end goal is and a greatbook that I've read that is gonna helpme put that my favorite Wiens practiceis called the room of the rhythm of lifeby Matthew Kelly the rhythm of life okso I know you you follow my mindfulfitness page yeah yeah I do I'verecently just started following thatyeahthat's that's in the making and mytherefore mindful fitness is stemmingoff that book really so what walks aboutin that book is you have essential meansin life to survive so you have you haveoxygen you have a young Ward so you needthose things or you will diebut what people often neglect is theirlegitimate needs and there's four ofthese and we collect them because we'retoo busy day today which is sofast-paced in our lives and but thosefour needs our physical needs sonutrition and exercise emotional needswhich is relationships with people wherethat's going to get coffee with a friendtalking someone haven't talked in a longtime then you have your spiritual needsa bit harder to define for me it's justbeing being comfortable yourselfspending some alone time with throughmeditation going for a walk in natureand the fourth one is intellectual needswhich is knowledge and learning newthings and we often neglect a lot ofthose and one trying to do is encompassthose in my life and try and help peopleencompass those in this because when oneof those things are off that's when youranxiety will spike yeah yeah that's sointeresting that's powerful I'm gonnaI'm gonna attach that book actually therhythm of life by Matthew Kelly you saidyeah yes brilliant Kay I'll add that toobviously you're you've got to Instagrampages as well would you at the bottom soI'll have a look at that I appreciatethat buddy thank you look into thatfantastic okay sothe next question is about adversity andwhat I want you to do is if you could goback in time and think of a time thatyou faced great adversity but youpersevered through it so just oneparticular time and I want you toexplain how you won obviously theadversity to how you got through it andthree what are the lessons that youtaught you at the end of it oh JesusChristget your thinking cap on okay my figuredyou know you know I said to you beforethis podcast you sent me the questionsin that and I was gonna happen littleread about them you haven't read all ofyou know what last night yeah I upgradedmy iPhone on Saturday and it deletewhatsapp conversations lost by a 10o'clock and I was like sheets messagesjust suck up do it which is why I thinkthis episode so far is so intriguingfascinating because everything you'resaying is if you know it's not youhaven't scripted it out it's literallyjust you speaking from the heart so Ialways find that more authentic thereason I do give the questions thatbefore is just because some peoplesuffer with is ie exactly okay well youhear anyway the question has been askedjust have a have a few moments again anydead time and stuff I can always edit ithow so I'll probably cost me becauselike a particular situational momentbecause there just been so many my lifeand I've had to come out of wellprobably my latest one is justqualifying as a child accountant loadsof adversity faced there whether it waswork just not seeing myself was goodenough in septal workout producing theknowledge that I have and just comparingmyself to others that within my firmsort of thing and yet having to go backon antidepressants was a big blow for meit helped me massively enough if anyoneis taken out to the presence there'sabsolutely nothing against them I was ona about 20 milligrams a citalopram ifany of you listeners know just stop givethem the information and I've been onthat for about three years since I likemy jobthere's no comment and slowly slowly Iwas prescribedten just before Christmas so 10milligrams taking one every day for twoweeks and then I take one every otherdayfor two weeks and now I'm in a processof just taking two tablets a week forthe next two weeks and I'll be off themand yes I defects for anyone gran outthere there are massive side effects soI did feel a lot more rumination comeinto play so just kin stuff very a lotmore emotional and very snappy er peopleclose to me I love my family so Iapologise to them on here I'm sure Iunderstandyeah and very very tired and lethargicbut now honestly I feel amazing honestlyI really do feel good brilliant mateokay so the next question it's we'regoing to get to happiest if I show youso today it's a memory but but the nextquestion is what is your biggest fear mybiggest fear is probably going back intoa depressed state massively that's mybiggest fearand the fear of that I think helps mekeep keep out of it and is that throughyour daily discipline like the stuffthat you doing the stuff you you'resaying to yourself 100% like things Isay to myself just be more open andtalking now and actually feeling like Ihave something comments to pursue like Ihonestly believe I've been through whatI've been through for a reason aseveryone will probably say but I'm onthis earth not not to be an accountantlike I love my job and I love the peopleI work with but my true calling is justto help people help themselvesjust bring me talking about experiencesand everyone can do that and you will doyou helping me and I've gone through itmyself even just some of the stuff yousay you know it's making so much moresense but we are a result of the thingswe tell ourselves then just on thatpoint I think that's really importantit's something I'm trying to get my momand anyone on all going through thatsimilar situation to do as well becausea very very quick example a little bitabout myself is yeah suffering withanxiety and be shy I've always basicallywalked looking at the floor kind of likewith a hunchback if you can kind ofimagine that so my hands in my pocketand I've never really making eye contactwith anyone and I'm just kind of walkingand I remember recently I think it wasabout two weeks ago we went for somefood and I saidmy friends I hadn't seen for about sixmonths and he goes have you gottentaller and I was like what like pubertywhen a long time ago me and he was likeno you've gotta be like taller and I waslike well I've always been this tall soI'm like I'm just six foot eight sixfoot and I was kind of like just thesame height as in and you kind ofshocked and what I realized was so I'vebeen doing like affirmations and tellingmyself stories every single morning ispart of my morning ritual and one of thethings is I am confident I am no longershy I am and I would say well theseempowering words to myself and withoutrealizing it without even thinking aboutit my physical body had changed which Ijust find fascinating that's somebodywho I've known for like the best part of16 years had come up to miss it manyou've just grown a few inches but it'sbecause my demeanors changed now mychest is proud and that there's no levelof arrogance or anything in that it'sjust I'm just confident knowing myselfand I'm not this shy anxious person whoscared the world or what people will sayabout me I'm comfortable in my own skinand the other thing about you is you'regoing to the gym and you're gettingbigger so that's probably right myfoodstuffs I do try and eat outbrilliant so we spoke about your fearwhat is your motivation then what keepsyou going even on the days when you'rein a funk for example lucky gentlemanwhat keeps me going is knowing I'm herefor a bigger reason than myself mmmdeep down when I still help him myfamily around me helping friends helpingpeople I don't even know and that reachout to me not try not good as much as Ican but just believed I found somethingcaught truly believing and anyone outthere like I know how hard it is to notknow your purpose it like be being a jobor be a plan for job in a union not knowwhat what a fuck you want to do of yourlifeyeah and it doesn't matter how would youget it I believe one day we'll justspark like if you asked me a year agowhat when I do I have no idea andwhereas things have just lightssparking and you know pulling into placeand that will happen for you it's justabout whether you're you're willing totake the risk to go and pursue thosedreams that's all it is I love that thatis so true and I think I always urgepeople now so even like my youngerbrotherI urge people to just try new things anddo different things because 12 monthsago May being a podcast host wasprobably the last thing I'd ever want todo other than it'll be an out of a planeI mean and I'm at I'm actually debatedwhether I'm gonna do that in the nextyear or so jumping out the plane safelyshould we say yeah trying anything crazyobviously with it with all this rightpeople around but it's weird how you howyour passion just develops my actualpassion now is like you said it's makingthat true impact it's making thatdifference in life so yeah the beautifulthing with that is is forcing me to comeout of my comfort zone hence doing apodcast hence putting myself out thereon social media and doing this podcastopening that business with more mommiesit's crazy to think that I would havebeen doing this because I just didn'tthink I would so I think you've hit thenail on the head there people shouldjust go out there take that risk trustthat it will fall into place because Itruly believe it won't but at the sametime everyone's journey is different sojust because it's falling I think inplace for somebody out there he doesn'tnecessarily mean it's going to be thesame for you it could be at 22 or itcould be at 50 but don't don't comparebasically what I'm trying to say exactlybecause I've people might look at me andsay oh he's a qualified accountant hesaw it for life now I'm just I've chosento go part-time comma salary you knowmoney doesn't money you need itunfortunately you need money but I'mfocused on my happiness right now whenI'm going part-time to to actually gofor what I truly want to do okayfantastic so there you've heard thebuzzer and we are now in the fun part ofthis show so this is a quickfire 60seconds where I'm gonna be asking costsall sorts of wonderful and weirdquestions and the beautiful thing is hehasn't read the show notes so you haveno idea what I'm gonna ask him andthey're not the same questions as alwaysI do like to mix it up a little bit butso please are you ready buddy I'm readyokay we're gonna start in 3 2 1okay the

Drake anysongs French or Spanish Spanish pizza orsteakthey comedy or horror comedy and thelast one which is completely randomwhich is wizards which is the funnything is I wrote these like a long timeago so I'm looking at it myself to getwhat okay brilliantthe answer about your sister as well Ithink I think she's gonna love to hearthis back I'm sure you tell her anywayon a daily basis but if you're anythinglike me sometimes I shy away fromtelling the people I love the most Icare for him so much and it's probablysomething that I should do as well butso we run to the one but last questionand this one's always about reflectionbecause I always believe hindsight is awonderful thing and upon reflection wecan always think of ways to get to wherewe are quicker easier or we lessheartache and we wouldn't be the peoplewe are today if it wasn't for theprocess I've been through so what I wantto know is if you could go back in timeto that one moment where you reallystruggled and suffered with adversityand you could just whisper something inyour ear knowing exactly what you knownow what would you say say to yourselfoh I probably tell myself to tell peoplehow you feel and because yeah it'sextremely hard even by looking back andeven the you for today it's hard toexpress how you feel whether that'sbecause you're gonna be mocked on socialmedia your friends won't understandbecause of different maturity levels ahyeah just be just just talking about howyou feel just talk about it I love thatand I want to get you to do if you don'tmind one of your poems now I thinkbecause you've been through it youcouldn't you can hear the passion inyour voice as well are you just beforeyou start this are you thinking aboutdoing books or ebooks or anything onthatOasis I want to release a bookpoetry book and also I'm in a process oftrying to gather to do like spoken wordevents okay um so I wanna go and performpoetry and and yeah it's funny how Ionly started writing I used to writepoetry a lot for Mother's Day cards uhmy mom she's probably got loads of poemswhich is quite handy because every timemy sister would ask me what we shouldget my mom article I'll just write whatlast year I went to Cyprus and mygranddad was writing poetry in Greek Ohwhat just about turmoil he's beenthrough in his life and stuff I wentover to Cyprus by myself actually justto save my grandparents for a coupleweeks and I thought you know what maybeI should try writing down stuff as wellso it's the one I'm gonna read is thefirst one I wrote in Cyprus some of someof them when I write them I can kind ofI don't feel this way anymore but cankind of go back to how I felt and writethe emotions down which is yeah yeahwhich is quite good for me and so yeahthe one I'm gonna read this the firstone ever wrote when I started writingproperly and it's called him him love itlet's go all right so here miss just thegame playing with my mind an easy targetfor him he always seems to find healways seems to be there to put me in myplace lurking a scheming like a puff ofsmoke all up in my face and I are closedmy eyes praying that he'll go but in themorning he's still there he always seemsto show he follows me constantly like ahovering dark cloud I turned to look atmelook at him in the face sometimes and hesmiled was also proud what did he wantfrom me what about done a question everyday my whole life he seems to have takenand he's here to stay but one day itseems to click and I look all aroundhe has no physical presence so how canhe be so profound that's when I realizedI'm living in the past and future withmy other thinking mind an easy targetfor him he'll never ever find Wowthat is powerful yeah and there that'sthat's about depression may that's atalent there you know you've got may gotmany talents you work out well you'vegot the accountancy going for you you'vegot this poetry going for you yeah andif your aim is to like change change theworld for the better and help people whohave been through similar situation toyourself like you know it's going to beexcited understand I mean people likeand we've never actually met in personbut with people like you is voice allabout as well I appreciate that and it'sthe reason I love doing this is becauseafter after speaking with somebody Ialmost feel like a new level ofconnection if that make sense so it'slike I see you like as a friend now Imean I've probably spoken to more indepth about personal stuff than I dowith some of my friends and butgenuinely like my hand is here if younever need it if ever there's anythingthat I can help you with in the futureif ever there's times that you feel andor anything because it is about justhelping each other up because there'sgoing to be times where I might needthat

like I said my mom'sgonna be fun in you hopefully today Ididn't tell you yesterday so alrightI'll look up no pages yeah she typesquite funny I was always left for thembecause she taught me like the onefinger thing and it doesn't always makesense but I just think it's importantbecause I think any age any demographicsor whatever it is your message is justtrue we are at the last question now forJenny and this is a question that Iasked all of my guests and it's if in150 years time science is unable to saveus and we are no longer about and allthat exists is a book and this book isabout the story of your life it's astory that you've written moving on fromnow up until the day that you sadly passaway what I want to know is firstly whatdoes a blurb say about you I a summaryto make someone you really want to pickthat up and think actually I'minterested in this person and secondlywhat would you call the title of yourbook OhI think my book would have to be apoetry book rather than biography andthe title of the book I think would bememoirs of an anxious mind and the blurI don't think would say too much at allit would just say I don't even know apoem perhaps that could kind of sum upyour yeah a poem that sums up or just aman in his mind just an anxious mindfull stop just something plain andsimple and the poetry and the poems willspeak for themselves about thesituations about the feelings andemotion that's powerful I think you alsolisten to episode one I thought youmight have not been getting this by herewhy keV and the beautiful thing withKevin's as well because he's my boxingtrainer he's a lovely chap but he alsodoes poetry as well yeah and I just findit I find it fascinating because likekeV you do poetry and I listen to acouple of years as well and we're in theprocess of kind of resurfacing himbecause he's got him in like normalbooks and I'll say maybe you could selfpublish it get it out there because Ijust feel like really hit yourheartstrings so it's

As a child he was tragically burned in hot water which has left him scarred for life. His life then continued to spiral into a life of drugs and crime.Somewhere along his journey however the idea of belonging and hope kicked in. Hezron self belief, which he accustoms his now success too is a key factor in him finding his true purpose. Hezron is now inspiring the youth who need to hear the message and realise that there is hope for them irrespective of the cards they have been dealt as kids.There is more to a life of death or jail.There are more opportunities if we remain commited to succeed rather than just having a slight interest.It's a remarkable story of seeing some change, something I was always skeptical about.Thanks for listeningFree Audible book sign up:https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audible-Membership/dp/B00OPA2XFG?actionCode=AMN30DFT1Bk06604291990WX&tag=are86-21Best book on Mindset by Carol Dweck: Mindset https://amzn.to/2QajMvZSupport the podcast: https://www.patreon.com/findyourvoiceLinks to me:Website: https://www.arendeu.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aren.deu/Twitter: https://twitter.com/arendeuFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/aren.singhLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aren-deu-65443a4b/Podcast: https://www.findyourvoicepodcast.com YouTube: http://tiny.cc/51lx6yLinks to guest:Twitter: https://twitter.com/Hezron_BrownInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/hezronbrown/#JustDeuIt & #FindYourVoice[Music]welcome to an episode of find your voicea movement led by yours trulyAren do a guy who has overcomecrippling anxiety adversity anddifficulty like so many of you in lifewhose main goal now is to help youcombat your excuses take control of yourlife write your own story and mostimportantly find your voice so nowwithout further ado I welcome the hostof the show himself mr. Aren do what'sgoing on people thank you for tuning into another episode of find your voice myname is Aren and this is a classic thisis somebody who I actually reached outto I'd say about six months ago and itwas following a news article that I sinthat they were mentioned in now theywere mentioned in this news article forhow they turn their life around andthat's kind of the stories I really loveto hear but I need to make sure that thelisteners ie yourselves you're gonna getsomething tangible from this and you'regonna get some life lessons and let metell you you're certainly gonna get somelife lessons now maybe many of us can'trelate to the way that this person wasbrought up or some of the stuff that hedid and I think he's held his hands openhe said I've made a lot of stupidmistakes but more importantly than thatif you listen to his story there's a fewmoments and we touched on it halfwaythrough the interview where he wasgetting signs he was gettingopportunities he was getting peoplecoming into his life giving him thechance to potentially turn it around andI thought that was a really importantpart of the story because I think evenourselves in life we sometimes getopportunities but because we're soblinkered or a mindset isn't thinkingthe right way or our perception isn'tright we sometimes miss theseopportunities and we spoke a little bitabout self belief and confidence andjust having a vision and I think that'sso so important myself for example Ihave some crazy visions but what I'verealized is by having these andexpressing them to the world and beingaccountable I'm seeing moreopportunities come my way and I'm notsaying these opportunities weren't therepreviously butmy thoughts and my processes of how Iwould interpret things were differentI just wasn't taking advantage of him sofair play to this person he's done anabsolutely fantastic job he turned hislife around he was very close to youalmost having no life so I'm verygrateful that he made that step when hedid I'm very grateful that he also tooktime to share his story because he'sgoing places remember his name he willcertainly be I think a household namevery very soon simply because his storyis one that you can't replicate you'veeither lived it or you haven't and thisguy has lived it so without further adowe're gonna jump straight into thisinterview with hezron Brown ok people sothank you for tuning into the show todayand I am honored to have hezron Brownhere with me today so firstly I justwant to thank you for taking time outeven your day today buddy no problem howyou doing today I'm fine thank you verymuch how are you I'm very well thank youI believe you were working as well todayis that right no no well I wasn'tworking I was I was more kind ofconcentrating on myself okay building upmy self today yeah that's still kind ofworking I suppose okay fantasticum what I want to do is obviously I'vegiven an introductionprior to this show about your life and alittle bit about your story but I thinkit's important for the listeners toreally understand you and hear it morefrom yourself so if you wouldn't mind ifyou could just kind of give a wholebackstory go into as much detail as youwant and just really try and let theaudience and myself get to know hezronBrown yeah that's no problem at all sofor me all kind of started when I wasfive years old I he fell in a bath ofboiling hot water and burnt the upperright hand side of my body so my arm mychest and my stomach I actually had ajump run at that time and when I fell inthe water all of my skin had melted overmy jumper and when my mum came up sheripped my to rip my jumper off out ofpanic and because of that she ripped allmy skin off so all this skin that'sactually on the upper right hand side ofmy body is actually from my legs I hadvarious skin grafts I was in hospitalfor numerous mumps getting all thoseskin grafts to kind of correct correctobviously what happened oh well at thattime you know when I started going toprimary schoolkid's gonna understand why I looked theway I did and because that reason theystarted to call me names started tobully meso from there I I I do that's a reallybad anger problem it was something thatI couldn't control okay and I would justget angry at every single little thingand he got to the point where it wasjust literally out of control to andfrom school I was always fighting I wasfighting in school as well and I thinkfor me the reason why I developed thattemper was because I didn't want anybodyto call me names again I didn't want tofeel weakagain and I kind of said to myself I'mnever gonna let that happen to me againand because of that my rage and mytemper just kept getting worse and worseand worseWow even though it was affecting me atschool it was affecting me at home aswell and my relationship with my mum youknow my mom was a single parent I'm oneof five children so you know it wasdifficult for my mum to actually kind ofdeal with what I was bringing home rightand there was times when I was gettingso angry I was throwing my wardrobe downthe stairs punching holes in doorsbreaking windows you know like it wasgetting out of controla lot at the time my mum would have tocall the police because I was gettingthat enraged that she was scared for myown safety and she was probably scaredfor her own safety as well of course wasthis around did you say eleven years oldat this point yeah yeah when I was 11that's quite a young age isn't it to bedisplaying so much anger yeah is it isthis is what I mean like my temper wasjust yeah it was it was uncontrollableand he got to the point where I wouldliterally black out so I wouldn't evenknow what I would actually be doing orwhat I was doing until I actually cameback around and it's like the only way Icould come only way out and calm downwas if I punched something not someonejust something right I could just go andpunch a door or punch a wall or you knowpunch some glass and immediately mytemper would go immediatelyand so yeah it was just it was it was itwas quite bad it was quite bad so I saidlike my my home life wasn't that good ofmy mom and she kicked me out that timethere's one and I when I lived in one ofmy older sister's you know having totravel to school every single day fromTamworth because she lived in Tamworthand having to travel from Tamworth toworthington every single day I'm theboss in the morning yeah it was adifficult time but the relationship thatme and mum had was I would go homeshe'll kick me out I'll go back home shewould kick me out again that was thatwas always our relationship so a lot atthe time I knew kind of what was gonnahappen when I went back home I knew Iwas gonna get kicked out again butthat's where my home was yeah so Ialways wanted to go back so that wasgetting to the points where a monkeykicking me outI was sofa surfing I was going to I wasgoing to friends houses staying withthem they knew the situation that youknow I was in in knew that I had theseanger problems knew the kind ofrelationship that I had with my mom andyeah like when I was kind of goingthrough school school was trying to helpme to teach I'm trying to help me aswell for those that knew and you knowthey were trying to better me they weretrying to keep that temper out of methey were putting me through countsthrough counseling putting me throughanger management but nothing reallyworked nothing really worked and when Iwas 13 so my mom kicked me out again Iwent and lived with one of my friendsmm-hmm an amazing woman her name isDevon and she literally just took me offthe street I was homeless and I went toher house and actually went to her houseto actually see her son okay and afterspeaking to me for like a minute shecould see that something was wrong withme she could see that I was strugglingin some form of way and she invited meinside she gave me a she gave me a hotdrink and she said to me tell me what'sgoing on with you right nowso I did I told a lot situation I was inand like that she took me into her homeshe she literally made me part of thefamily every time when we was outshe saw someone that she knew she wouldtell him that I was her adopted son yeahit was yes she would she's an amazingwoman she's an amazing woman I livedwith her until I actually finishedschool can I just ask so you you findyou Vaughn and God bless her soul shesounds like a wonderful ladyand you said things were obviously shewas introducing you as part of thefamily you felt at home how did how wasyour anger at this particular time thendid you find that you were able tocontrol it or was it still still youwere still getting flares of anger Iactually wasn't getting angry when I waswith her I think it was just jus down tothe respect that I had I would never getangry with her but maybe if I was likestill go into school I was getting angrywhen I was a try but I was never gettingangry around her okay that's because howI seen it wasI can't disrespect this person thisperson has literally took me from offthe street into her own home and I hadjust this deep respect for her and herwhole family up until this day you knowI still see her I called her mom mychildren call her nan you know herbrothers and sisters I call them uncleauntie like I see her family as myfamily so that respect has never it'snever gone away never gone away so yeahshe took me in and kind of went throughschool life they're living at her housemy mom actually found out where I wasnow Yvonne that she lives around thecorner from my mom and it took her knowenough two years to actually come roundto the house to come and get me andYvonne gave me the choice she said wellyou can either go home or you can stayhere and continue to live the life thatyou're living but even though I wasthere and she took me in I always hadthis feeling that I needed to go homeand that that wasn't my home so I tookupon myself to go back home and livewith my mommm-hmm two weeks later she kicked me outagain and I was back on the street and Iwent and lived with my older sistersleeping on her floor one of my older ofher sisters and I was sleeping on herfloor she lived in a flatshe had two kids at that time my nephewand my niece and they kept see seeing mesleeping on the floor they kept comingin asking her you know why his unclehezron just sleeping on the floor mm-hmmand I think she got to the point whereshe just wanted to you know she justdidn't want them seeing that anymore andI to be fair I didn't want them seeingme in that in that position so she cameup to me and she said hezron there's aneighborhood office at the bottom of herflat so there was a neighbor laughs atthe bottom of her flat and she asked meto go in there and just tell him what mysituation was and see what they couldactually do for me so I went down thereand I I spoke to themI remember when I I stepped through thedoor I had six black bags three in eachhand full of clothes and I literallyjust collapsed on my knees when I when Istepped through the door and I justbroke down into tearsbecause I think it was that realizationof knowing that I actually had nothingand I had no one around me then wasactually truly supporting me and it'slike I kind of felt like I was a burdento to my family and I remember thiswoman came running up to me and she saidwhat's wrong what's wrong and I I toldher I said you know I haven't gotnowhere to go Liz there's no one aroundme that that can look after me and shesaid okay what there's no family orfriends I said no there's there'sthere's there's no one around just youit's just me and she sat me down in thechair and she said okay well I'm gonnatry and sort something out for you soshe got me a bed and breakfast I stayedin that bed-and-breakfast for about twomonths now I was I just finished schoolyeah so I finished my exams I never andthey were left with no we've no gradeslike none at all and at this point whenI was staying in that bed-and-breakfastnow through that time I was happy to sawsome money on my own food hmm all thethings that I needed to live on yeahabsolutely because because I was soyoung the so I went to the Jobcentre andthey they said to me are there'sactually there's actually they don'tdidn't know how they could help mebecause I was so young of course and ittook them quite a whilefor him to actually give me some moneyso I actually ended up going on toincome support okay and kind of theirdead back dated me but throughout thatwhole time I was trying to find ways tosupport myself and it was quite hardeven down to college educationno college wanted to accept me because Inever had no grades I actually wanted todo IT that was something that I waspassionate about at that time and theythey said to me because you haven't gotany grades there's there's no real waythat you can start an IT course becauseof the the level of entry that youneeded I eventually found a college thatwould accept me it was Matthew Boultoncollege and they were saying and theysaid to me okay cool like we can't putyou on an IT course straight away mm-hmmbut if you do this course in this coursethat you make up the grades that youneed to get in onto the IT course I saidokay like for me it was just anythinglike anything just something to occupymy mind something to take my mind offwhat I was going through at that timethe counts would have found me aaccommodation as well it found me atemporary but a nation in Hockley so Iwas like okay like you know things werekind of exciting to look back up jobcentered they put me on the incomesupport so I was starting to get moneyin I found education I've got my ownplace so at that time I thought thateverything was going great everythingwas going in the right in the right kindof order and when I was at collegethat's when things started to get a bitkind of like off-track right I will youknow skip lessons I was being in thecommon room all the time trying to hangout with friends I had met loads of newpeople that you know I didn't knowbefore and then that started toobviously play an impact on my educationhmm I finished out my first year it wasa two-year course I was on I've doneother media and photography and I'vecompleted my first year went ontoanother course with media photographywhich was a two-year long course and onthe first day I started I had anargument with my tutor over a can ofcoke and again I lost my tenwas there swearing I was punching thingsand the the head of the college wasactually walking down the path at thetime I was actually losing my temperworst timing ever the worst time in everand they phone security security cameupstairs got me and escorted me out ofthe college so at this point now I'vegot my own place money's coming in butI've got no education and I'm kind ofjust dusting around doing nothing andthen that's when things startedspiraling out of controlI started you know going to parties Istarted hanging around with people thatI shouldn't hang around with they spiedinfluencing me and even though I knewwhat I was doing was wrong like therewas no one really around me to say to mehezron stop doing that or hezron don'tdo that we'll show you a better way Isuppose well show me a better wayexactly yes that's exactly it showed mea better way hmmso I just continued to stay on the paththat I was on I started doing a lot offoolish things I was you know committingrobberies I was walking around withweapons I was I was doing a lot of sillythings okay and when I was doing thesethings I kind of I know kind of had noremorse like I was just like again I wasjust doing it to survive you know I wasstanding drugs as well and I was justdoing it to survive I was doing it totry and make money um and again as yousaid there was no one really around meto to push me away from it and put me ona better path can I just jump in therejust quickly I mean I've got sort of gotso many questions cause it's such afascinating storyyour relationship with Yvonne now hasthat completely broken down at thisstage or is it or is it a matter of youfeel you can't go back there now oh nono no Yvonneshe's as I said like she's still amother figure to me okay so she wasn'tshe was always still there oh yeah yeahshe she was always still there but againit kind of felt like to me like Icouldn't go back there does that makesense yeah absolutely and at this stagewas you was you taking accountabilityfor anything or was it just you know theworld's just doubt you shit cards andyourcarry on do what you need to do to getby that's exactly it the world wasdealing me this hand that I didn'treally you know um you didn't ask for itbut you've got it and I've got it andand I'm just rolling with itand that's just kind of what he got tohe got to the point where I was justrolling with it and as you said like forme my temper my temper has always got meinto bad situations like Mitchell IIlike even till now even up until thispoint like my temper has always got meinto situations and I know it's becauseof my temper and there's so many thingsthat you know I try and do to try andhelp me deal with my temper but when itcomes upI can't explain to you I literally justhave no control I literally have nocontrol and it's only when people see meangry that they go WOW like you'veactually got a really bad temper andit's hurtful really it's hurtful to hearthat to hear that you've got this thingthat you can't control and even thoughyou do so much things to try and controlit you can't and it's hard andespecially when you know that this thingis getting you into trouble it's ruiningrelationships it's ruining opportunitiesit's not serving you it's not certainlyany it's not so many purpose but youknow what I say that and so it's a it'sa tricky thing because times when youknow I was when I nearly got kidnappedit was my anger that kept me alive beingable to fend for myself being able tofight back that's what that's what keptme alive and so as much as I kind ofhate my temper I also love it becauseI'm able to protect myself in a way thatsomeone else can't protect me well thatmakes sense I does yeah absolutely itdoes make sense it's interesting isn'tit because I suppose in hindsight you'drather not have the temper but oh asyou've got it you've kind of managed toharness it at least to give you somesort of advantageor at least help you in some situationsif that makes sense oh yeah yeahdefinitely okay so you're now saying youspiral out of control what are youthinking like I'm justtrying to get into your head at thisparticular moment now what are youthinking is the future of hezron Brownthe future heads around Brown I actuallydidn't know what the future of headswere on Brown was as I said - I was justthis person that was rolling with E soone would say I wasn't I wasn't thinkingabout my future I wasn't thinking aboutmy loved ones I was just thinking how amI gonna get by how am I gonna surviveand how did that change them when did itchangewell changed when I got done for arobbery charge okay I got done for thisrobbery charge and it wasn't it wasn'teven it wasn't even a robbery like thatand as they grabbed my friend I hit thatperson when he was on the floor which Inever even realized cuz I actuallywalked up at that point but when he wasactually on the floor someone robbed himsomeone took his stuff now when thepolice came they they they they pickedme up and when they when I was in thestation they turn out to me and theysaid oh you've robbed this boy's stuffand this that do and I was like no andthey said oh do you know what kind ofdamage you've done and I was like whoaand the policeman looked at me and hesaid you did not punch him you hit himwith something and I said

a piece of chicken I had somechips I had you know I wanted everythingthat I knew that I would miss hmm and itwas crazy like that feeling of thinkingI'm actually going to prison like it's ahard it's hard to describe what thatfeeling is actually like knowing thatyou're gonna see the outside world againmaybe for a considerable amount of timejust I'm not sorry I mention it in oneof my early episodes I worked in aprison for six months okay and justworking there me it was draining likementally because I was seem I've seengood people I mean I believe we're allgood but sometimes we do bad things andsome more than a listener and there wasthough some people in there who I methim on the streets or something I justthink they're just normally just nicepeople and when you see how little timethey get with their friends and theirfamily and how restricted their life isin prison it was so like heartbreakinginside and it was after that experienceI was like I am never getting on thewrong side of the law because I'm notgoing to give away my freedom and whenyou're in prison you they kind of justtake that away from you so yeah I canimagine how you must have been feelingat that pointyeah I think I think that's somethingthat's important something that youactually just said it's not thatsomeone's bad it's just that they justdo something bad at that time yeahabsolutely and you know a lot of these alot of the guys that are in there likethe women I window they're actually goodpeople but they've just done somethingbad just made a bad choice or a baddecision I always look at that I alwaysthink I think you know how we look at sofor instance we look at a celebrity forexample and we think obvious easy forthem but we forget all the sacrificesand everything that they're putting inbeforehand like hope the whole processand it's the same with somebody who endsup on the wrong side of the law weforget that they may have actually beentrying to sort themselves out or justnot getting a break in life and thensometimes something comes up andsomething happens and then they've actedthe wrong way which in hindsight most ofthe people that I've spoken toespecially in prison wouldn't have doneagain whereas you get some people whoare just literally straight-up crazyyeah they are straight-up criminals butgenerally speaking it is that and I'llbe honest I used to be quite judgmentaland think people don't changemmm again that was just my limitingbelief and now speaking with peopleinterviewing people especially likeyourselves and seeing that you're ableto do the amazing things which we'regoing to talk about shortly it fills mewith like joy in like happiness and alsolike hope and you know having that senseof hope that we can create a betterworld we can create a better communityand yeah we definitely canI always feel when somebody's been atrock bottom they can offer so much moresomebody like yourself who's been on thebrink of like you said you could havebeen stabbed for example you could havehit you in an artery or something andboom you're gone there is no more as RonBrown absolutely at the same situationyou could have been in the wrong placeI've hurt somebody else in their lifeand their future is finished so I'mgrateful that that hasn't happened yeahyeah so I went for my sentencing Iremember sitting in the dock I was satthere I had the the police officerstanding next to me although the guardstanding next to me and while I was inthe dock and the judge came here and sheshe said hezron Brown stand up and Istood up and she said I was actuallygonna sentence you this morning this washer work this was her words to me mm-hmmand even up until this point I stillhave not forgotten she said I was gonnasentence you this morning but yourpre-sentencing report was glowing shesaid I don't know what you didor here you spoke to mm-hmm but I'mwilling to give you another chanceWow and of the feeling I got inside myheart just my heart just my heart sunksecond chance that's you know thatsecond chance and I literally reduced meto tears and I was just in the dock justcrying my eyes out while this woman'stalking to me and telling me what she'swhat she's actually going to sentence meto but I actually just didn't care aboutwhat she was sending me because I knew Iwasn't going to prisonyeah but then at the same time I thoughtto myself I've just wasted like 20 poundand a mat done all day hey I see likeyou know thinking that I was getting mylast meal with actually I'm not theregoes a six pack you know like I wasstill grateful so she gave me a two-yearsuspended sentenceshe gave me two hundred and eighty hoursof community service and a four hundredeighty pound fine now this two-yearsuspended sentence was something thatmade me was was one of the reasons why Ihad to change there wasn't I never had achoice I had to change because what thattwo-year suspended sentence meant wasthat if I had done anything in that timeat any point if the police is beingcalled and I'm involved or Thunder I'mautomatically getting sent to prison andmy actual sentence will get activatedthat's how they put it to me so theykind of scared me I'm thinking no way amI going to be put in a situation whereI'm going to prison so that started toslowly change my mentality I had a sonalong the way as well hmm I had a childon the way now the relationship brokedown with his mom and I actually endedup taking her to court to actually seemy son now this was a battle that lastedin totally spin seven years now my otherpartner at that time she turned aroundto me and she said you know hezron youyou need to bet your life you're yourson can't grow up thinking you know thatyou was a gang memberthat you don't know these bad things hesaid you need to prove what you'recapable ofyeah I love that when she said that tome really made me it made me think aboutthe future I think that was the firsttime I actually really thought about thefuture I I can't be this person that Iwas before just you know doing all thesebad things I have to change there isn'tthere isn't a choice I have to I have toyeah and she was being able to get meinto courses so I done a parentingcourse I donehealth and safety I don't food safety Idone I done my IT never one two andthree I redid my English a masked man Iwent in I don't customer service skillsand employability skills I just I justtried to build myself up to a pointwhere no one could turn around and sayhmm wow you know you're this bad personit sounds like it was something thathappened in like a month's time or ithappened in like too much time and I'msaying yeah I've got this qualificationthis qualification this talkit took me yes yeah it took me years toget all that done but I was proud when Igot done you should be because thatprocess of you developing yourself andyour mind and picking up all theseskills that can never be taken away fromyou could never be taken away never betaken away and I try and say this topeople because maybe maybe it's my age Ican look back a little bit but sometimeswe spend that time trying to pick upmaterialistic things and stuff and we'renot training our mind no and that's themost important thing and you know I'mproud of you for that well done and Ithink that and the best thing with thatis it's taking you two years and I'mkind of glad it's taken you two yearsbecause now you know how hard it is andI suppose you can appreciate the skillsand skilling up and stuff so oh yeah100% like hundred percent um becausethroughout that time you know I hadnever had I've never had a job beforeI'd never had a job before at this pointopen to the age of 22 I'd never had ajobWow I was living off the system and Iwas unrolled as one would pull it I wason road you know when you walk around inthe street and you see that hoodedperson walking around that was me thatwas meday and night that was meWow so you know I've gone from thatperson to now and he said upskillingmyself train in my mind training myselfto be a better person and what wasactually a really big turnaround for mewas one day I was sat in my flat and Isaid to one of my friends I said youknow what I need to change I sat downwith my friend and I said to him I saidyou know why why do we do these thingslike you know why do we why do weactually do these things well and helooked at me and he turned to me and hesaid well we have to this we need to doit and from there I thought now I cansurvive in a different way I don't needto be creating heartache and committingyou know crimes to you know I mean toget him to go finally yeah yeah and Iactually turned to him and I said youknow what tomorrow I'm gonna change myclothes and he said what do you meanyou're gonna change clothes I said I'mgonna change my clothes because at thattime I was always wearing black as Isaid I was that person that you see onthe show you know everything that I hadwas you were basically fitting thestereotype this there was likeabsolutely yeah 100%and I said everything I had was blackdown to my socks down to my boxerseverything was black yeah and I said tohim I said you know who I'm gonna changeI'm gonna go hey chin him and I'm gonnabuy myself some light colored clothesand he started laughing at me and I waslike why you laughing forand he said our heads on you're notgonna go and do that that gave me themotivation that I needed the next day Iwoke up I woke up earlygot myself a shower and I went to townand I went and bought a white top bluejeans I actually came out wearing theclothes and I put my black clothes in abag and I was sat at the bus stop andthis old lady came up to me and she juststarted randomly talking to me tell meabout her or all day or what she wasgonna do for the day tell me about hergrandkids tell him about her kids tellme why she had planned now when Iactually mentioned this story to peoplethey they always laugh because theydon't see that as a big thing but forme that was a big thing because that hasnever happened before I'm not saying shewouldn't but would she have spoken toyou or would you have even been in aplace that was approachable if you wereaddressed how you address yeah butexactly so and when I I remember thewhole journey she was speaking to me onthe bus because she was um she wascoming she was on the same bus style wason I remember the whole journey I wasjust smiling to myself and I got off thebus and I went to my flatand I just sat there and I was justsmiling to myself and my friend cameround to my house and he said oh yoyou've done it of course I've done ityeah I said don't ever doubt me becausewhen I say something when I say I'mgonna do something called do me and I'vealways stuck to that model if I say thatI'm gonna do something and I said whenthat old lady spoke to me that reallychanged me it made me it made me realizethat actually I wasn't a bad person thatI was I was just as you said making badchoices can I just touch on what youjust said there so you just saidsomething fiercely that I wasn't a badperson so somewhere along your life inyour journey you had this belief thatyou were a bad person because maybesociety told you you're a bad person allthe decisions you made there's a verystrong thing and I try and say this to alot of people is we are the story thatwe tell ourselves so if you consistentlykeep telling yourself that you're a badpersonsomewhere along the line you're gonnastart acting like a bad person you'regonna you're gonna find your way toalmost fit the narrative a bit likemyself when I used to say I was shy andanxious one I was very shy and anxiousbut two I'd almost get myself out ofsituations where I could grow and becomea person not shy and anxious if thatmakes sense so yeah yeah definitely it'sweird because you've touched on threethree ladies now who have really come atpivotal points in your life so you hadYvonne initially then you had the ladywho took your appointment she said notanother black man and then you've gotthis third lady you just come on a busand it's almost like somebody sendingyou a message all the time yeah againit's those subtle messages that peopleactually ignore that actually are thethings that change your life if youallow them to and if you accept it ifyou're allowed into an if you accept itand it's exactly is it that simplebecause you could you could have I couldhave seen that in a different way youknow but I didn't and I decided to seein the way that I did that these peopleare trying to change my life and that'show he's bettered me and that'sI've decided to change or did decide tochange get him back to the story of whenI was actually at court for my son orwhen I got all of those qualifications Iremember I went to court and I initiallyslapped it down on the table like Iliterally slapped it down like he waslike it was a movie or somethingand it's just like try and stop me fromseeing my son like that that's all Isaidand the judge looked at me and he saidwe actually can't stop you though but wecan't stop you from seeing your son youknow I mean and it was a good feeling toknow that you know I had achieved all ofthose things for my sonabsolutely and I ended up winning thecourt case so that was one of the realpivotal reasons why I decided to changebut yeah like from there I just didn't Ididn't decide to stop you know I didn'tjust think to myself okay like I've wonthe court case now I don't need to betmyself no more I don't need to enhancemy life no more I'm just gonna chilllike I've never done that I'd stilldecided to keep moving forward keepprogressing and and it was quite funnyyeah because when I was doing thevoluntary work there was people comingup to me saying why are you actuallyworking in here like there is no reasonfor why you need to be working here andI said I'm doing it to better myselflike I'm doing it I love it I'm justdoing it for myself and I was there fortwo months two to three months I wasthere for doing the volunteer work everyday I was dressing in a suit don't askme why I was just arrested in the seatjust because swaggered out I mean theBritish Heart Foundation you know andpeople say people just got to understandwhy button again was all because of mymentality I wanted to have a differentmentality and what was actuallyinteresting was that they actually tookme they signed me off from the JobCenter and signed me on to perhaps andit was for like those people that reallywanted to find the job and it was themthat actually got me involved with thePrince's Trust so one day I went in andI see my advisor and I asked him I saidoh he's there he's there anything goingon is there anything happening there anyjobs available and he turned to me andhe said oh there's there's no jobs oranythinglike that but there's a thing with theprinces trustees could get started intheater mm-hmm and I was like okay I waslike what is it he was like it's not ajob it's like a course I was like okayand he was like but I don't know if youare done if you want to do it becauseit's more like a confidence-buildingcourse but he's like hezron you knowyou've already got confidence so youdon't really need to do that course andI don't think that they would accept youmm-hmm and I looked him and I said putme on it I said even if I don't getaccepted onto it put me on it anywayI'll go I'll see what they say if theyaccept me then they do if they don'tthen oh wow it's just enough one ofthose things mm-hmm so we did he put meon it it was at the Birmingham reptheatre where it was being held so Iwent to the Birmingham rep theatre hadlike a little open day for it and itwould taste a day a little workshop so Ihad done that I had they had then put meonto the course and when I was on thiscourseI sat down and I said to myself I amgoing to commit a hundred percent thatwas it that was it I just said I'm gonnacommit a hundred percent I'm gonna sayhello to every single person I'm gonnabe the last person to leave and I'mgonna be the first person there that'swhat I said to myself and I stuck to mehe got to the point where people werewere asking who I was because I keptsaying hello to random people I was Iwas walking around a bearing a reptheatre the saying just just being likehellomorning morning and people couldn'tunderstand why I just kept sayingmorning and hello but that got theattention of people in the Birminghamrep theatre and I ended up doing thecourse so at the end of it we had toperform a play outside the brick theatreand we had to market it ourselves weeducate posters we had to do the playourselves and we look doing this playand guy from the West End came and thedirecting manager of the rep was thereas wellhis name was Steve bored and afterwinning had finished everyone wasgetting their awards and he wheneveryone was getting their awards forcompleting thecourse the guy turned around from WestEnd and he said Oh where's hezron Brownwhere is heso I'll step forward and he said I'mactually a talent scout and I would likeyou to play a part on the West End and Iwas like what so every wonder thereeveryone's there applauding everyone'sclapping but while they're doing thatI'm standing there baffled thinking I'mnot an actor like and I actually saidthat to him and he was like you'veactually got talent he said you mightnot know it but you have he actually hewanted me to play donkey in Shrek but Isaid to you no I haven't got noexperience and he said yeah I know youhaven't got any experience that's whythe repple gonna take you one sit inSteve ball he then stepped forward andsaid yes as wrong if you come and see menext week we can talk aboutopportunities about how to kind ofbetter your skills and enhance youracting basically so I did I mean I'veseen him and he gave me some actingposition that the Birmingham rep theatrejust like that and from there that'swhen things really started to change soI have now gone from this person thatwas homeless this person that never hadno food at times never had no money attimes that was unrolled at times to nowthis person who's an actor at theBirmingham rep theatre you can make afilm on that I could make a film be theactor as well so then the Prince's Trustgot wind of it so I sat down with awoman called Tsukiko Hale who is theyoung ambassador executive manager inthe West Midlands and I sat down withher so I told her my story as she saidokay she said how would you feel aboutbecoming an ambassador for the Prince'sTrust and I said yeah like I'm up forthat I definitely hundred percent Ithink I think that's a great lesson foranyone I'm not saying necessarily youwanting to become an actor but what youdid want to do is put yourself in abetter situation around better peopleand have a better life and by youembracing that opportunity and justliterally throwing yourself out therebecause I canimagine how comfortable you must havefelt coming from straight black blackhoodie black jogging bottoms to a suitsaying hello to people who you don'tknow how they're gonna perceive youbeing overly enthusiastic spending timeout of your own day go to charity placeslike British Heart Foundation and to putyourself in that environment and thenjust shine I just I just think it'samazing and hopefully people listen tothis and think if you really wantsomething in life and if you know whatyou want just go ahead and do it do youknow what I mean don't wait don't waitfor someone to give you give you the nodor the acceptance because you've got totake control of your life and you'vedone it may in fair play Tia thank youyou know what it's all about Southbelief I agree oh you know like there'snothing more powerful than self beliefnothing if you believe in yourself andyou believe that you can achieve thenyou can if you tell yourself everysingle day I'm gonna be a millionaireyou'll be a millionaire not just becauseyou've said it every day but becauseyou're you're putting it out there tothe universe you're installing that intoyour mindset so things that you will dofrom that point on will be things tomake you a millionaire absolutely a lotof people don't believe in themselvesthey don't and to be honest I'm guiltyof it so I never believed in myself Iwas into podcasts about two years ago orthree years ago yeah they are alwayswanted it because I'm always fascinatedby people's stories and I used to saycertain things about my life and peoplefind it inspiring and it's taken me like12 months to really have the self beliefand you touched on something there likethe millionaire thing and it's a bitlike you know for instance you go andbuy a red car for example you're goingto see that red car everywhere and thatthey call that the reticular activationsystem is kind of some scientific termso when you start saying you're amillionaire and you start putting it outthere into the universe you're going tostart seeing opportunities where you canpotentially become a millionaire you'regoing to be you're going to seemillionaires and millionaires you mighthave a conversation with one you mightpick up some information from himthrough your 20 minute conversation orwhatever so I think you've hit the nailon the head there self belief is soimportant especially to inspire peopleare motivated to go out there and dowhat they want to do you have to believein yourself you have to have him and youhave to because what will happen is thatopportunities will present themselves toyou but you won't take them because youdon't believe in yourself becausesaid you might feel like you're too shyor you know you've got this anxiety whenyou're around so you know like then isyou then start to lose out on some ofthe things that are actually there toactually better your life things areonly just started now really you know tolook up and as much as you know I haddone all those things before to bettermyself it's only now that theopportunities are actually coming my waythings that I had never seen before nowI was doing like garner dinners I wasgoing to red carpet events I was I wasstanding in front of corporate busestelling him about my life story tellinghim about how the Prince's Trust hashelped me and I'm at these I'm at theseplaces and I'm thinking to myself howdid I even get herelike sometimes it's a bit unreal becauseI'll be sitting there and I'll be I'llbe remembering the people that I used tohang around with mmmI remember the things that I used to doI remember the hard times that I was inthe times when I was literally I wentfor a depression I was literally likeyou know I was having suicidal thoughtsI was I was I never thought life wasworth living you know every day cryingmyself to sleep because of the situationthat I was in so I've gone from thatperson to now sitting down at a tablearound millionaires literallymillionaires pretty it's corporatebosses eating lobster like literallyeating lobster for my start I mean I'mkind of things I'm thinking like it'scrazy like it's crazy how I got myselffrom there today but obviously it waspossible and obviously I'm done laterself belief and it's the process andit's the process and people forget theprocess and you you've had to endure itand a lot of people think they can justwish something and it just happens in amonth in a week sometimes it can takefive years sometimes it could take tenyears I'm glad for your sister for yoursake and for the community because ofthe work you're doing now it's happenedit's quicker because now you're outthere and you're able to do great thingsso mmm it's fantastic man thank youthank you so he built up my confidenceit built upthe passion that I had actually becauseI think what was what was hindering meetme before was that I actually didn'tknow what I wanted to do a lot of peoplewere always like saying okay what do youwant to do you know like you know whatyou want to be coming I was always likeI actually don't know and I actuallydon't know what I want to do I don'tknow what I want to becomebut the Prince's Trust gave me theanswer and it was from doing all thoseevents because I was doing those eventsand I was talking to these people in mymind I was always thinking these aren'tthe people that need to hear my storyit's the young people that need to hearmy story surgery and from there Istarted going into schools I was doingit for free I was just going intoschools speak into year groups and I wasjust speaking to the young people turnedhim about my storysometimes on a one-to-one basissometimes as a whole year group and theimpact I was making and that I wasseeing was it was unreal you know cuzthere are a lot of young people that aregoing through similar finger yeah whatI've gone through and to be able to sayto them actually like I went throughthat but this is where I am now and tosee their face actually light up andthink hope to know that they've got hopethat they can now you know that they cancontinue like there was a boy that Ispoke to I told him my story and it wasit was during a it was during one of mytalks that I do and and he was to thewhole year group and this boy came up tome at the end and he's eternal it's okaywhat's mean he said can you be my mentorand I said well yeah like if you want meto any went I've got a temper and it'sexactly how you describe yours and hewas like to see and it's because he saidyou know he always keeps getting intobad situations and his temper keepsdefining him and I looked at him and Isaid your temper doesn't define you Isaid you know I've got a temper youwouldn't even believe it but I've got atemper as well but look where I'mstanding and now you're coming up to measking me for help youI said you can be that person in thefuture absolutely and and to see hisface was light up it was great man andit's nice really it's the best feelingto know that you've made an impact onsomeone's life in a way that you neveractually thought you could you know wasit sitting there before and I wasthinking you know if I speak about mytemper that's gonna help peoplesomething that could be possible it'swell deserved given from me it was wrongbecause you couldn't were given up andyou could have just I could have givenup stayed in that life and contrib senta hundred percent and this is whatpeople need to understand that life thatI was in before there was only two therewas only two roadsit was either jail or death and the lifeyou live in now the opportunities andjust the hell it's unreal to be honestthis is kind of like one of my missionsas well because you mentioned liketemper then just from you saying thatstory one person who could relate toyour story you could potentially have arole on effect for his life and then hecouldn't do fantastic things and theguests that I've got on this podcastthey're all got their own story so oneof my good friends he's got blind in oneeye and all eyes people because he's aboxing coach he's a fantastic personthat one of the best people I know andsomebody who's going through those kindof issues they might be able to relateto each story I've got somebody who'senlivened with cancer and they'restruggling in their mindset and dealingwith that so that's gonna help peoplewho are suffering with cancer so whatabout finding people who have hadadversity in their life but they've beennot given up they've not let the cardsthat lived out an effect and whatthey've done is they played with themthe best way they can and they found away to win the game and you're undermoney you're winning and longmatecontent I'm winning my I'm gonna move iton a little bit now I'm a big believerthat we are resort of the things we tellourselves but I'm also a big believerthat ideally habits are really importantas well so now if you could just tellpeople now it's a day in the life ofhezron Brown a day in the life of hezronBrown yeah well you know I need I needto be true for everyone I'm not I'm nota celebrity yet you know yeah yes butit's the process and he still sees tothe process I'm just looking to besomeone that you know these young peoplecan look up to and and hopefully howchange some people's lives but a life inthe day ofBrown is a life like everyone else youknow I get luck actually what I onething I do is when I get up I look inthe mirror for about five minutes and Ijust stare at myself as much as as muchas we're that that sound yeah stare atmyself I put my hands on my hips hmm andI just stare I'll just stare into myface I just stare into my eyes okay andI'll just keep saying to myself you'regonna make it you're gonna make it I'mgonna make it yes and that's all I keepsaved myself and I do it oops about fiveminutes sort of standing it and thatactually gives me the motivation to todo what I need to do in the day mmm mmmyou know if there's anything that I needto look at in regards to work or youknow if there's someone I need to go andspeak to it just gives me the motivationthat I needit's a powerful affirmation andsubconsciously you're strengthening yourself belief which is the reason you'redoing amazing things now so I think thatthat's really important this is kind ofwhy I asked the question becausesomebody always has something in theirroutine which they might not necessarilysee as an amazing thing but it's somekid out there who doesn't believe inhimself just simply stands up in themirror tomorrow morning with their handson the hips or wherever they want to putit and they just say empowering thingslike I am NOT shy for example or I amworth more I will achieve more I will domore for people and they consistentlysay that and it's not not just onceyou've got you've got to keep saying itespecially if you haven't got the selfbelief they will start seeing they willchange so mate that's a fantastic pointI think I think it's I've actually gotan image now because I said I said whatyou look like and standing there nowdecide I shouldn't be thinking it youknow because I've got black boxes I'vegot you there and I know it's empoweringfor myself as well you know for mymindset and because I said he just givesme the motivation that I need but yeahafter that put my clothes on go to workand come home eat foodgo to bed well actually no that's that'swhy I eat food and work on work onmyself again so that's good at themoment when I saythat I go into schools and colleges andpeople are Farrow units youth offendingteams prisons I do my talk but I alsotalk about some of the social issuesthat are plaguing a society as well so Igive talks on nice crime I give talks oncounty lines and I'm creating otherprograms as well other presentationsthat I can do in schools as well so atthe momentthat's what I'm doing just trying tocreate those presentations create I saidI'm just I'm out here trying to helppeople so love it in the evening thatjust work on myself fantastic justoffline we'll take this conversationoffline on my I did this little bit outI was a social worker in my last life aswelland I send the kids that I've gonethrough the system and how hard it isand stuff so one of my big goals in lifeis to have a social impact change aswell so something for offline becauseobviously you're in Princes trust I wantto start a social enterprise for mentalhealth as well there's a lot of thingsthat I feel that in the future we canwork on to make a massive difference inthe world so let's definitely go let'slet's do it mind let's do it let's gomanthe next question is about adversity andI think you've pretty much touched on ahell of a lot of adversity but if we canjust go back to one example and what Iwant you to do is give us the lessonsthat he's taught you and how that's madeyou stronger today oh I would say thetoughest like adversity that I faced waswhen I was in that bed and breakfastgoing through that time when I never hadno money I never had no food when I meanthat time for me was harder I mean thattime for me was hard I was 15 years oldturning 16imagine being that age - to fend foryourself literally like everything yeahand you know I remember nights MitchellI said I was crying myself to sleepbecause I was that hungry that my bellyfat like he was turning inside out and Ithink that taught me especially now hetaught me not to take for granted thingsthat I do for me yeah that's one of thebiggest things for me at the moment likeI just I just I'll just live life how Iwant to live life but I just do what Iwant to dobecause as I said I look back to thosetimes and and I realize actually whereI've come from and you know you've got asense of gratitude now as well foranything that you take which is reallyoh listen you should see me when I eatfood you should you should yeah ahthough you don't want to be around methe chicken brilliant brilliantokay so the next one's a little bitwe're gonna spin it a little bit againwhat's your biggest fear now my biggestfear is my temper even now and me losingmy temper losing that control andsomething bad happens which puts me backin that situation that I was in when Iwas younger a hell of a lot to lose aswell now and I've got so I've got somuch to lose like and you know when I'mtrying to say like I want to be a rolemodel for these young people and how canI be a role model if I'm out heregetting locked up for something or youknow I can't be that role model thatthese young people need if I'm doingthose if I'm doing those things and itis hard there's a guy called inkyjohnson I don't know if you know him hesays something about there's no pointyou trying to be a public success ifyou're a private failure exactly it's sopowerful because it's so easy on socialmedia to try and portray yourself to besomebody else do you know what I meanbut I think you have enough having thatin the back of your mind

howyeah that's something that's somethingin my life that I've never really hadyou know people being proud of meand I think as well that's somethingthat I've tried to strive for yeah I'lltry to strive against that thatacceptance you know and for my kids mainleaf mostly I just want them to be proudof me yeah I just want them to be happyand know be able to say to people youknow that's my dad you know there were100 percent hundred saying man to manI'm proud of you for how far you've comeas well in your stories is I'm excitedmate for you for your future I'mgenuinely excited yeah I can't wait forthe things it's okay so what we're gonnado now we're gonna go into a quick fireround of 60 seconds and we're gonna puthas run through his paces we're gonnaask him as many questions as possible soif you're ready we're gonna start inthree two oneokay the ability to fly or be invisibleability to fly money your fame moneyNetflix or YouTube Netflix Coke or Pepsior Pepsi would you rather know how youwill die or when you were dying oh whenI would die love or money love books ormovies movies if you could sit with oneperson in the world for an hour whowould it be my kids I love them what isyour biggest addiction my baby oh theygive the Dixon food summer or wintersummer your favorite place in the worldmy bed speak or languages will be ableto speak to animals speak or languagesyour favorite song I don't have fun thelast song you listen to okay love ityour favorite superhero Superman if youcould abolish one thing in the worldwhat would it be or badness love it loveit okay times up so now we have finishedthat round we're gonna move overstraight back into the interview sectionof the show so the next question has runit's about reflection so how that's awonderful thing and upon reflection wecan always think of ways to get to wherewe are currently quicker easier or withless heartache but I guess the journeyteaches us a lot especiallyyour journey as well and I've got a realbelief that everything happens for areasonOh hundred percent absolutely so what Iwant to know is if you could go back intime to one moment where you reallystruggled let's let's take thatbed-and-breakfast example and sufferedwith that adversity being hungry in thatmoment and you could just whispersomething into your ear knowing what youknow now and where you're going now whatwould it bestay strong mmm literally stay strongcuz I said that was something that Ialways and I struggled with men when Imean like you know I was having thosesuicidal thoughts I was having some realsuicidal thoughts you know and if Icould go back then and you know speak tomyself I would just say heads one staystrong don't cry just stay strong stayon the path I wish I had done this stuffearlier but you know one thing that Ialways say it's people is I'm glad thatI've lived the life yeah people peoplealways people always say to me like ohif you could go back in time would youchange would you change anything no Iwouldn't and if anything called probablydo it worse because because now I havethe story sit down and speak to people Ican sit down and speak to well I haveI've sat down and spoken to older peoplehmm about things that they thought Iwould never know nothing about but I'mable to sit down and speak of thembecause of what I've been through sosuddenly that brings us to the lastquestion and the last question I alwayslike to ask my guess is if in 150 yearstime we're all dead because sciencehasn't managed to save us and all that'sleft is one book and that book is basedon your life about you telling the worldwho hezron Brown really was what I wannaknow is what that Blair would say andthen I'm just gonna add a littlequestion at the end is what would youcall it as wellokay I'm gonna probably call it thestruggle is real of it that's notprobably what I would call it thestruggle is real so if anyone's outthere who's listening that can write abook for me that's what the fight willbe the struggle is realand I think the blurb would like theblurb would just have to be somethinglike you know this is a man but you haveto say in a voice as well you can't justdo it like normally he has to be like ina voice like you know okay like a LiamNeeson kind of voice I'm gonna try asuccess with Scott let's go this is aman this is a man after facing hardtimes changed and became a better manfor the love of his kids and for thelove of what he wanted to do for societyI like it I like it I like it I like itbut it would have sounded better withthe Liam Neeson voice but oh that'sbrilliant that's - basically the end ofthe show so what I normally do now aswell is I ask people to reach out to youif you wouldn't mind and I think yourstory just one that's gonna inspirethousands of people so I've got you onTwitter but I know you've just startedthat have you got any of the socialmedia platforms yeah like I'm onFacebookokay um I'm on Twitter I'm on LinkedInas well is Helzer on brown on on most ofthem I think um

Find your voice - Episode 1 - Blind, Drunk a Lions tale by Kev DillonKev Dillon is a man of the people, who refuses to be average. Suffering with meningitis Kev suffered with blindness and his whole world was rocked upside down. His dream of being a boxer was shattered and he turned to a dark place in his life.Determined to never let this get to him however, Kev fought back, in true boxing style and jabbed and hooked his way to where he is today.He is a head boxing coach of Lions Boxing Club ABC in Brierly Hill, UK but more importantly than that he is all round genuinely lovable guy.Alongside this he is a father, a husband, a son and a friend and who would have thought a POET!Kev blindness has taught him more than many of us can imagine, forced to understand his limitations he refused to let them control him or stop him achieving his true desire, to help others.His mindset is unbreakable having been at rock bottom and the most beautiful thing about this story is, his journey is just beginning.He has a vision of a better future where people, no longer doubt themselves, hurt each other and see the beauty in the world.Kev's outro states:"Take care of yourselves and more importantly of each other. May your god bless you and if you don't believe in god, believe in yourself because someone who doesn't believe in anything, will always be lost" - Kev DillonThanks for listeningFree Audible book sign up: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Audible-Memb...Best book on Mindset by Carol Dweck: Mindset https://amzn.to/2QajMvZSupport the podcast: https://www.patreon.com/findyourvoice & check out our new sponsor: https://www.healthxcel.co.ukLinks to me:Website: https://www.arendeu.comInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aren.deu/Twitter: https://twitter.com/arendeuFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/aren.singhLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aren-deu-...Podcast: https://www.findyourvoicepodcast.comYouTube: http://tiny.cc/51lx6yLinks to guest:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kevlionsdillon/Boxing Club: Lions Boxing Club - Bull Street, Brierly Hill, DY3 3RA#JustDeuIt & #FindYourVoiceYouTube Transcripts:[Music]welcome to an episode of find your voicea movement led by yours trulyAren do a guy who has overcomecrippling anxiety adversity anddifficulty like so many of you in lifewhose main goal now is to help youcombat your excuses take control of yourlife write your own story and mostimportantly find your voice so nowwithout further ado I welcome the hostof the show himself mr. Aren do what'sgoing on people thank you for tuning into the show today my name is Aren andyes that is correct I am the host of theshow so this is actually my firstepisode of find your voice and if I'mcompletely honest I was a little bitnervous yes I figured I could google andwork out how to do but it was more aboutreally doing when I put my voice outthere do I want to make myselfaccountable and really stick to this butdeep down inside me it's always been apassion to sort of help people now thisis a strictly passion project and it'sliterally about just helping peoplebecause one thing I've realized in mylife is that everyone has a story totell and only when we find that courageand find our voice in order to tell thatstory are we able to have an impact on awider level and I suppose since I'vebeen sharing my story recently withother people and I'm very very gratefulfor some really nice comments frompeople I thought what in a secondthere's a lot more to tell but moreimportantly there's some absolutelyamazing people out there who I reckon Ican get in touch with and then hopefullyit can help you guys as listeners soI've got a whole range of guests on thispodcast which I'm really excited toshare with you bear with me because Ihave recorded some prior to this episodeand with each podcast episode as youknow with anything in life you alwaysget a little bit better so if there areone or two episodes and you're thinkinghold on a second he sounds a little bitnervous here it's probably because I ambecause my first one or two probablyweren't as natural as are supposed theyare now so it's all a learning curve I'menjoying it I mean so absolutelyfantastic people some who already knewsome who are brand new and happened toreach out or happen to reach out to themso anywaythat's pretty much enough of me for nowI'm gonna introduce my first guest nowI'm not joking he was probably the firstperson I've thought of having on thisone of the reasons was this individualhad a big impact on my life duringprobably the two happiest years of mylife if we don't count my marriagebecause that is obviously the best partof my lifeI know a lot and I just had a great timebeing around this individual I spent alot of time with himand it wasn't just so much the wholecoaching aspect from a physicalperspective but it was more about thementor lessons that I was getting themindset lessons I think that sounds alittle bit better and you know I grew alot as a person and we just becamereally really really good friends and Ithink it's been like what seven eightyears now and you know we're always intouch he's a fantastic person he's notjust got a great heart he comes from agreat family he's family a fantastic Iknow his family but he's someone who'shad ease levels of adversity in life andhe's not been doubt the best cards and Ithink some of us sit there and we alwaysthink the grass is greener on the otherside or we have it the worst but let meassure you that's not always the caseand Kev someone who may not have had thegreatest card out to him in life but Iassure you he's certainly playing to thebest of his ability so he's not only awonderful father and a loving husbandhe's also a son and more importantlyhe's one of my very very best friends inthe whole wide world and I'm very proudto have him on this especially as myfirst and I'd love to get him back onbecause I know he was dealing with a flubut bless him he managed to still comeso without further ado let's get thisfirst episode I find your voice on theway okay so I'm sitting here opposite avery good friend of mine kept Dylan whoI've explained a little bit about in theintroduction so I think it's importantnow firstly I just want to say thank youkeVwell coming on the show it's a pleasureso I appreciate you being here but Ithink it's more important that thelisteners get to understand you so oneof the things I always like to start theshow with is tell us about yourself fromthe moment you can remember to where youare now in life I'm 35 years oldI'm married to a beautiful woman calledKateDylan my father to a beautiful girlcalled Jasmine on the head coach for theboxing club in the Black Country calledthe Lions my life hasn't always beeneasywhile tragically lost my audience in 87through viral meningitis back then 32years ago flora meningitis was a bigthing where poor buggers were going inlosing limbs and I lost my eyesight mymom had been taking me in to the doctorsfor weeks and I said if glandular feverof the flu till one day I went to a comaand I well I was completely blind and itcomes a little bit come back in my righteye and it was tough as you can imaginebut life is tough and life gives youoptions you either carry on or you don'tand I think they are the two options oflifeyou carry on or you don't but a greaterGod I had very strong parents lookingbrother and grandparents and they helpedme to do what I could and that has beenmy attitude for life you do what you canhave the best ability did you can do Iwent to a promise called Church ofascension which is in war life and hadto leave there because I had bad eyes inreception when I went to Bromley Hillswhere me and another young lad JohnFrank coming the first blind kids to gothereso I have to travel out the district togo there we're at some fond memories funmembers who I met locked on friends Ihad empowering Shona Quinton helixeducation I'd say let me Darren becauseI had to have a support teacher itwasn't fun being a young lad as well asbeing pointed out you were different andI think that's what education can do badfor people instead of embracing ourdifferences sometimes would forced standout I was a young kid that's the worstthing you can do all you want to dois to be normal oh do you get you thinkwhat is normal and we go out of our wayto not be normal to be specialbut as a child and all you want to do isfit in it's excruciatinghowever I've got through school by hookand by crook aside roams poetry becausewhen I was a young lad I found it veryhard to express what I was feeling aboutblindness and about being different ormade two books except me by giving DylanPope in a vision I went to college domedia studies and then I was lostthrough depression and different formsof coping that psycho pin selfmedication of coping I've lost and wentoff the rails my dad said to me at theage of 17 when I bet you come and coachand because boxing was one of the onlythings I was ever good at see noseblowing got iron at reactions and I'mstrong and he got me coaching I passedmy level one at 18 level two at 19 andthat's been my push through lifeteaching others to do something that Iwasn't able to do wasn't allowed to doanother camp coach and I think that'sbeen one of my purposes in life to helppeople so I can talk to these young boysand girls men and women have beenexperiences I can talk to them aboutreal pain because I've felt pain butlife isn't always a bad pain anyone whosays life isn't tough has it livedenough but anyone who says life isn'tbeautiful and rewarding also as I livedin office yes yes it is tough but bygaudí it's wonderful as beautiful ifrewarding but here we look at itourselvesand seeing these young people of watchto grow up into men it's been greatmy greatest rewards haven't been the ABAchampions and the people who've gone toboxer England is being there for theForgotten well they've been forgottenbut maybe I ever been to them it's saidof pheromone the scrap people build theminto something good hopefully they feelvery proud of because I know I'm veryproud of them absolutely there's acouple of things that I mean um I'veknown Ken for a long time and we spokerecently about how long about you knowNita days it's quite it's quitesurprising but there's some stuff therethat I mean I didn't even know and Isuppose some of it is probably like theelephant in the room so just touching onyou men in joints and stuff you knowwe're very good friends I've neverreally discussed that with yourselfmaybe that's just me not being confidentbut did you findI mean you touched on it a little bitthere but the whole you know beingnormal but what is normal I suppose insociety and all this because obviouslyI've got foster siblings and they've gotADHD autism all that sort of stuff sothey're considered special I suppose butgrowing up with your condition did youever feel sorry for yourself or did youfeel different especially committing tothe cult in aspect where I mean I'vebeen in quite a few boxing gym before Ireally found home here at the lines andgym where obviously everyone'sable-bodied should we call it ininverted commas as a coach with so Ionly threw one I had to how did thatmake it you feeling sorry for yourselfwe all do it they'd have a big footballteam or it's okay to feel sorry foryourself but you shouldn't dwell on itand that's something I had to learn Isay to a lot of people in life you havetwo optionsyou carry on forwards or you don'tand my only option was going forwardsbut occupy falling down but crawlingthere by climbing up but in any meansnecessary toforward a lot of his difficult but it'sdifficult to everybody in anybodyit's like someone said to me fearthere's a rational fear and it's anirrational fearI'm Aladdin little King swim fin onFriday hippopotamuses there's a veryrare chance that he'll optimus he'sgonna come and get meas a young African living on a riverbankthat's a rational fear an irrationalfear Allah spidersin King's room for the Money spiderisn't gonna get me a lad in Australia itmight a rational fear my fears onfighting or embarrassment yes no I'lltake her back embarrassment is a bigfear my fears aren't through fighting orstanding up or telling my story so I'veovercome knows my fears are because I'mblind in my left eye I haven't got depthperception so like going down stairs orwhen I go out at night I'm not sure whatto shadow or is the lamppost or it's astep or said that is a rational fear soI'm not sure what can hurt me however itwon't deter me from doing so fantasticI'd be just to touch on that last bit Imean you said there's two choices youeither move or you don't and I think Ialways try and say this to peoplebecause I don't want people to havesomething bad happen in their lives forthem to really wake up and so moveforward in their lives or take a wholelittle bit I suppose and start writingtheir own story you've kind of maybedrew force initially had to do thatbecause you were left with the cardsthat you were dealt and you have tosolve move forward with thatI say kudos to you because your mindsetis something that I I've read more booksthan I care to remember and I'm alwaystrying to work on mindset because Ibelieve if you can conquer your mind youcan pretty much conquer anything and wesee that in the boxing gym through thegreat boxes and everyone I'm sure youcan probably elaborate on that and Ithink mindset is crucial one of thereasons I really wanted you on mypodcast and you were always going to bemy first episode is because your mindsetis to me at leastit's you know it's made of steel is it'svery it's somebody who could sit thereand feel sorry for themselves there'ssomebody you could always look at thenegative side but man you've been abetter fresher and I've said this beforebut the two years I spent with youpersonally when we were training but Ithink I've seen you more than one missusat the time we're two of the best yearsof my life and in that particular time Ijust want to put this out there to thelisteners is when you really focus onachieving goals and I really really wantto be become a great boxer and be be agreat boxer there's a lot of talk behindand it's sometimes it's from yourfriends your family the closest peopleto you and sometimes it's not alwaysuplifting talk and I think being aroundyou in your presence not just for yourcoaching skills which are fantasticwhich helped me develop so much but as aperson as I sort of as a coach and amentor you were always able to instillthat positive influence in me you'dalways say the right words at the righttime the encouragement and I just Idon't know I'm not sure if there's ananswer to this but what how do you dothat I suppose because I'm here and I'mtrying to do that and I'm obviouslyeducating myself and I'm reading overthe books and I'm following all thegreat lines but you kind of just I meanI'm not sure deep do you read books likehow I read and woody is it somethinginstilled from maybe your dad or justbeing around for people because we areso bad I am terrible at reading terriblyreading and after I'm a very large fontsor tried audiobooks all I'm a man wholoves music from 2pac to try to China toBob Dylan I can listen to any type ofmusic all day but an audiobook I switchoff from so my greatest form ofknowledge is by self experienceexperiencing myself that way I realizedif I like it down like it if frightensme or excited to me I also love talkingto people picking their brains aboutreligion and a better experience andabout what they did and travel isanother beautiful gift don't only livein your district and travel and ithasn't gonna be to Thailand he could beto go to Wales or going towhere every day's potat yourself out ofa comfort zone so if you're only evergoing on autopilot you're only going toat one placeyou've got to be willing to get losteven if it's only in the moment couldyou never know where it's gonna take youand that's the greatest form ofEducation I think life can give you andthat's probably one of the greatestforms of Education Isaac's just heardnow in the last year because everythingyou just said then I'm sure my listenersbecause I know a lot of people who areeager to listen to this episode we'reall habit readers and we listen toaudiobooks oh it's almost become a hobbyof ours and a lot of that the bestaudiobooks they would have the sameinformation or the same Isis fault oursupposed success leaves clues so there'salways the same kind of stuff in thereeverything you just said there and thisis why I find you fascinating is becauseyou normally this but you haven't readthe books it's just something thatyou've developed and this is kind of thepremise of this podcast is to findpeople like yourselves people who arereachable people who you can after thispodcast you can reach out to Kevin youknow it gives you the time of the dayyou can come see him at the lines Jimand I spend time with you these arepeople that we should be around andstaff experience of talking to people Ithink I think it's overlooked we're in asociety now where everyone's stuck totheir mobile phone I say that as I'mholding it up right nowand you know that's that's not the wayhumanity should be it should be aboutexperiencing new things as becoming newpeople and understanding so that's afantastic point mate and I'm alwaysthere's a very few people I come acrossin life who had that sort of emotionalintelligence that you've just displayedthere without having gone through whatI'm currently doing I reading all thebooks that I can possibly do so kudosmate and I do want to just move thisover a little bit because I'm just keenbecause because of the person you areand the impact you've had on my life Idon't know you've had many otherpeople's lives I just want to touch onyour daily routine so I'm a very bigbeliever that we are the resource of thethoughts that we think and our dailyhabits so if you could just give thelisteners a little bit about the momentcapital is alongfrom the morning to the moment yourestaurant no mate my alarm is a littlething called Jasmine Dillon she'snormally White's milk okay then I we getup we could add stairs we have breakfastwe watch some people I'm tellingnormally peppa pig is not I hate bluecoherently i watch penny about myselfand then we go up we have out wash theywould come down then I'll take it toschool they're not normally come up hereto the Lions if but if I have got timeand I'm not in the class then I'll goand pick her up if not many doors wouldnot stay Opia working with peopletalking to people because I'm up hereevery night and then I'm a boxing choiceit's very rare that I get to put mylittle girl to bed off from the weekendso in the day time for me I'vedaddy-daughter time and that's thatsacred to me but when I'm up here youcome in and you become a differentperson and don't think of me it's beenthis almighty confident person becauseconfidence is of the code do you justcome and put on it's a lifetime ofworking at it it's about people only seethe finished results that don't see theprogress they don't see ArnoldSchwarzenegger Jesus Christ he's a bigfella he wasn't born that way it's everylittle dumbbell every little exerciseeverthat's from him to our league to RobertDe Niro to Katie Price don't see thefinish resolved and that's on thepositive scowl exactly that's also haveseen that that drunk will not draw me onthe street you see the finished resultinstead of thinking what happened on hisjourney or her tunic to make them heresorry I went off to that's why that'swhy I think this great lesson is whatyou just said there I'll just I'll justwhining at Danny time less doesn't meanso the next question I'm thinking you'vekind of explained a little bit and wecan obviously jump back into it but Iwant you to think back in your time justone particularly event careif you could and I just want to say forthe listeners Kemp has no idea whatwe're gonna ask him so he hasn't askedfor the questions he's explained hedoesn't lie reading so this iscompletely straight from his heart butyou've been through a lot of adversityin your life as many of - deserve I wantto think of a time where you've justfaced something they really shit day orreally shit time or something Bad'shappened and I want you to if you couldtry and explain to the listeners how youovercome it what kind of practices youtake of one lessons you've taken fromthat you've touched on it previouslylike you've always got the the mind setup we either go forward or back but arethere any sort of key things that youeither tell yourself or you do actionlike work out or we'll be around certainpeople that you do to really try and getyou out of that situation of adversitynever ever be frightened of asking forthe help but when I go to a pub orsomewhere and I don't know where thetoilets are and for me it's embarrassingthere's a lot of people in then I don'tknow don't go it's over there okaywhich way to over there so but you willyou'll find your way I remember when Iused to go nightclubbing 18 17 18 19 andI remember going somewhere and I lost myfriends and it was pitch black thestrobes are going music so I've lost allmy senses are con here or I could seeshadows bumpy and who didn't get angrytalkin front of toilets I rememberwalking over to a wall and following thewall to try and get out and the bouncersthere give me a sword and a whale youcan add the club but starting a fight soI've got from' name because that was theonly way that I could see I've get himout of that situation but the way I'vedealt with things I see one of my goodfriends Nick Davis who's ahypnotherapist and through NLP he'shelped me to get through stuff inhypnosisI did a chemistry course myself yearsago and I didn't like came to me inbottom four metres a minute wrongwasn't for me but NLP and hypnosissuited me changing patterns in the brainand figuring out what is the trigger forsadness what is the trigger for beingangry or searching for and that helpedme but I always say to the lads of theclub your place will twenty pound orthirty pound for a dietitian or you'llpay someone for shredder condition earlybut we won't go and pay someone tofigure out why we're feeling sad and Ithink if we haven't got a a good mindthen nothing else will fall into placeit's something that I probably alreadylearned last year my mindset and Ikicked myself because in hindsight Imean you haven't gotta really be herebut when I was boxing with you I thoughtI had some good physical capabilitiesfor example you know it was okay quitestrong and I was able to lean down quitewell not to blow my own trumpet but thething that really let me down was mymindset you know on the pads and when wewere training got Phyllis Phares anyoneI was doing everything was easy rightbut you stick me in that ring man and itwas like it was like I was holding 20 kgdumbbells and I was or sometimes I wasgetting out of box by people who I wasthinking and that's not no disrespect tothese individuals he was just what - itwasn't right and it it's only now and Isometimes think I wish I could just turnback time a little bit because the way Ifeel now I'm just having that sense ofconfidence about myself I'd reckon I'dbe able to transform why didn't with youand all the lessons you told me whichI'm very grateful for in the ring and ihave had much better success basically Isuppose you work with that on your boxesas well in terms of the mind says wellwell mind is so important and it's thepeople we have around usyou can have someone up here five days aweek and that they're brilliant dreamboxes but then their dad or their uncleor someone puts their nerves on to thatperson not a creative personand it creates an anchor an auditoryanchor answer that's a funny old boogerand sometimes you can feel so good inyourself and that's not just food boxthat's on the pool it's I like her wellshe's too good-looking for you oh you'reright yeah oh I'm gonna get this job Ithink I'm like a Gregory Clare well youcan't lift that much no you this is avery hard thing not too late to get intoyour world all the people's doubts ifyou can try your best to stay strongwith yourself you'll have more successthan any other booger absolutely that'sall powerful nothing I've only startedrealizing that myself now my last sixmonths have changed so much just frombelieving in myself and not to make thisabout me but even this podcast which isit's me coming up become physical youknow me you know we're very good friendsbut on outside of the way I started thegym sorry I'm an anxious wreck what Iused to be and you just touched on a fewthings in terms of like anchors orpeople saying and saying things and Iand I suppose it creates this thingcalled limiting beliefs so I remembersomebody once said to me I mayunderstand your accent and I supposethat's probably why it's taken me 12months to release a podcast because Iwas so scared of putting my voice outthere and thinking who really wants tolisten to this sirbromine black country accent but then Ithought there's people out there thatactually do and then over time thosepeople resonate with my message alwaysbecoming more confident in myself and Ireally know somebody's one opinionbasically outweigh their opinion of somany other people but it's a funny thingisn't it because I suppose it dependswhere that opinion comes from so if itis say for instance your father or youruncle or somebody you hold your highesteem it can take a toll on you sodefinitely I think it's a it's a it's avery good point in terms of be consciousof the people you're around and if youdo happen to have that point ofaround you I'll show ya you made yeahleft okay because even if it is she diedwith you if someone is standing in theway of your goal or their person youwant around you if it's someone who'sgonna say you're gonna hurt yourself andlet they're pointing out as I said ifthere's someone who's pointed out thefear to you the danger then maybe we'vegot the best interest this up to you tofigure out if the painting of is worthit but someone who to put in obstaclesin there well how about if you felt haveit there is nothing at all wrong withour yeah it's just find out another waythat you shouldn't do it saluteabsolutely and I think that's what we'vebecome wrong because we're like an XFactor mr. Graham generation and it's Iwant to be a singer yeahthat doesn't mean you've got to godouble triple platinum don't why whatyou want to do but sit by the success ofit if it makes you happy don't send inyour local Boozer and you're working onschool just because you may never make aliving of eating who cares if it if youare happy to do it absolutely does thatis the reward of your action I'm justfinding happiness in but the silliestthings really finding gratitude andfulfillment I'm not having to go throughshit in life not needing to losesomebody in my family or you knowsomething bad happening it's you knowtheir worlds are beautiful placesbeautiful people out there and it'sabout just finding your passion so mypassion is to always happen is whypeople so yeah I'm going to be the bestpodcaster in the world but hopefullythis message will have all with a coupleof people and they can change theirlives you can then go on and inspire andchange other people's life so fantasticpoint mate I'm going to move it over andI'm gonna asking you another anotherquestion game think about it what isyour biggest fearand you're not allowed to say I'mcheating here you know I'd like to sayanything we listen to Justin okaymy biggest fear at 35 is different tohow I felt fear of 30 were 25 or when Iwas at school if you fast without when Iwas at school it had been asking a girleven have been read in acting class ithad been all these things but it shouldgrow now at 35 and it's as I say mysimple fears there's a big things to mebut nothing to you mmm-hmm I said goingto the toilet went on in in a in a pubmm-hmm an unfamiliar pub or going out atnight when I've got a walk down the roadanother so sad there not to shadow willto step I remember working with her NickDavis journalist subjects only slowlyagain and we did a seminar up here wehave to stoneboxers to super 88 boxes and we all satin a circle and he said to if we wentwhat five things have will frighten offand people went dying in my loved onedying getting hurt public speaking andall these things and then Nick said tome said embarrassment I missing what youmainly because you're all boxes doing itwould rather go into that ring and havethe snot knocked out of them for tworounds than to have to do a bit ofpublic speak you know go and ask thatgirl out too and everyone went in fromput the razor pointy you'd rather putyourself in physical danger than to dosomething that you might feel like aplonker live woman yeah and he said if Icould take you off now to Brazil and youcould fight a lot of super every way tome not your bed would you care whenNoakes it's not the physical thing it'sgood then why cuz cuz I don't know thatdon't caremy mom to see me so it's the fear ofmaking something a little punk wereletting people down and that that fearis the funniest book Raval isn't itwhere there's no feel physical bad cancome from it but the emotional it'salmost like a fear of rape you know it'sI think you've just hit the nail on thehead and I'm and I'm nodding herebecause you mention the physical dangerthing and I remember I was sitting in amastermind and I was letting the emotionthat you just touched on there almostconsumed me as if I was in like thewhole world of trouble yeah if you askme the same question would I ratherstand in a ring it be oh boy you're a bea champion mate I'll do that any day atleast I would have a few months ago andit's amazing that there's there's peopleout there I used to be one of thesepeople who would put myself throughphysical pain just in rod then insteadof looking like a plonker shariq say asa cowboy reference just for a fewseconds and like you said I can't hateyou unless you let it hear you unlessyou let those emotions consume you and Isuppose it's it's about understandingwhen something happens it's not whatactually what happens it's the meaningwe touch a touch to it so if if forinstance you get rejected by a girl ifyou touch and meaning to that such asI'm ugly I'm not worth it I'm not goodenough then obviously you're gonna feelabsolutely crap and you're gonna havesome negative impacts but if you justsay okay fair enoughI had a 50/50 chance there let's goagain hopefully the next one's betterand I think that's something I'mconsciously trying to do much better butI know I speak with a lot of people it'sit becomes crippling because then you'reyou're just hiding hiding in the shadowsand watching the world go by not doingthe things that you need to be doing andI really want people to hear what youjust said then you know stop it and playit back because that's really importantmessages there and also just if you'refollowing my journey however small issee that I'm coming out of my comfortzone as well and I'm trying to do thisyes I'm doing it one for myself becauseit makes me happy but two I'm doing itto let you guysthat if you're shy if you're anxious andyou all those that you've had in yourhead I guarantee 100% I've had it myselfbut I'm here you know I'm sitting hereput myself out there but myself arethere on social media every day becauseyou know we've got one life andtomorrow's I promisesilly as that science-based trip onethink I learned we we all think we'reindividuals will think we are the onlyperson who's ever felt this and yeahit's a load of nonsense gang we all wantto be low fuel get friedgonna have a laugh and anyone who saysdifferent is trying to sell yousomething you're not alone with all thismore you can talk to people about iteasier becomes a promise yeah Iunderstand agree mate and you're notalone we are gonna come to a fun part ofthe show now guys but just before thatjust wanna quickly yeah so I know yourmindset I know you know how motivatedyou are and especially towards thecommunity here you know you're trainingkids and all those women guys you knowpeople of all ages religious backgroundscoaches everything on a day where let'sjust say for instance you wake up inyour in a bit of a funk so anyone whotells you they're super motivated Iwonder percent of the time I thinkthey're lying I've yet to find anyonedoing that so on that day of the weeksay for instance when everything's fineyou know the day before nothing's gonewrong you haven't a damn accident oranything but you just build up a bitshit bit sloppy in that day what keepsyou going on that day as I said there'stwo options you do what you don't thefear of not doing it projector catapultsme into doing it fantastic okay so thenyou've heard it that's the buzzer goingoff and now we're at the fun part ofthis show so what I'm gonna do now isput Kevin through his paces I'm gonnaask him questions for 60 seconds andit's up to keV to see how many he cananswer so keV you ready yes okay buddylet's get the timer ready I'm gonna goin three two oneokay the ability to fly or be invisibleinvisible money or fame fame Netflix ourYouTube YouTube Corner Brook Brook Cokeor Pepsi would you rather not how youwould die or when you were dyingwait Ali or Tyson are like fury or AJ AJsummer or winter your favorite place inthe whole wide worldon the catch would be to girls speakfour languages must be able to speak toanimals or languages if you couldabolish one thing in the world whatwould it bethat's a cruelty skipping or running -burp running the best boxer ever are layor legs lose your favorite song everfastclaw Tracy Chapman and finalquestion would you rather read minds orpredict the future read mind fantasticokay so that was a quick fire right justa little bit of light fun there so youreally think AJ can be fury yeah reallyyeah I'm on the fence there I'm I'm moreof a fury fan but yeah let's not makethis a boxing podcast we can do thatsome other day okay so sadly we arecoming towards the end of the show nowso we've only got two more things that Ireally wanted to try and get from you inthis interview the next one's gonna beon reflection so high so it's awonderful thing and upon reflection wecan always think of ways where we canget to where we are quicker or do thingseasier or perhaps with less money orstress but I guess the journey teachersare so light as well I'm a firm believerthat everything happens for a reason sowhat I want to know is if you could goback in time to one moment where youreally struggled and suffered withadversity kind of like us I suppose whenyou when you're 17 and your dad got youto come to this gym and knowing what youknow now what would you tell your 17year old self that would help them ontheir journeydon't settle being averagenormals are variety and I'll be okay inthe morning so just keep tryingabsolutely I'll be all right in themorning fantastic okay so sadly we areactually at the end of the show now andI just want to gain taste more but justa quick thank keV because I'm sureyou'll agree has been a fantastic guestI promised you it would be good andhopefully I've delivered on that but thefinal question I always like to ask myguess is if in a hundred fifty yearstime we're all deadand science hasn't managed to keep usall in life and there's a book and allthe book has is the title which says keVDylan and on the back there's a blurb asummary and that explains a little bitabout what your life was and who keptDylan was what would that blow say aboutyou first of all want the book to saykeV Dylan blind drunk Alliance - -anything I ever want to be rememberedfor his it was a good bloke who helpedpeople when he could and if I can dothat if I can leave that as my legacya good man who helped when he could Ithink I left a good one absolutely andyour story's still being written nightbut my experience with you is you're anamazing person I'm proud to have you asa friend I genuinely mean that you'vealways improved my life you've alwaysbeen somebody who of how closed closedin my life I mean equal gone oncewithout us talking but it's always likewe just seen each other yesterday whenwe pick up and I think it's important tosurround yourself with people like yourkeV Dylan's in the world because Ibelieve there's any of us out there andsome of us may need to just find ourvoice and kind of come out of our shellsbut if you find a kept Dylan certainlyhold on to him now Ken's not tooinvolved in social media but I knowthere's a lion's Instagram page whichI'm following and I know there's aFacebook page but if there's a one waythat people can contact you keVbecause I really want people to kind ofreach out to maybe 100% recommend peopleof all shapes and sizes and ages to comedown to this gym it's a family communityit's run by a family it would like Isaid it was the best two years of mylife that I can remember being here I'dcertainly recommend it you're you're notonly fitting well enjoy it but you lookgood in the process as well no Icertainly get you through your paces butif there's one place where people couldreach out to you care what would thatone place be Eva as it's only scrapKevin Lyons Dillon okay or at the clubwhich is located Braulio dy5 and free RAand it's the lines Boxing Club fantasticthe Lyons Boxing Club what I'm gonnaalso do is put all of the information tocontact keV in the show notes so you canall have access to that I'm gonnaobviously share this on my Facebook pageso please do reach out please show theboxing club some love and I know havingbeen here it always feels at home when Icome here boxing comes a hard one aswell so if there's anyone that you knowout there who can perhaps help eitherwith funding or equipment or anythingI'm sure they'll definitely appreciateit they'll go to good hands you knowyou're keeping kids off the street anddoing a good service so thank you to keVand as always finished from one noteabsolutely yeah one of T's take care ofyourselvesand even more important to each othermay your God bless you and if you don'tbelieve in God then believe in yourselfthe son who doesn't believe in anythingwill always be lost and remember thispodcast is absolutely free so all we askin return
