In this heartfelt and deeply insightful conversation, Simon Ward speaks with long-time podcast listener and endurance athlete Dave Hill, who shares his recent journey through an unexpected prostate cancer diagnosis, treatment, and recovery. Despite being in excellent health, with a strong training routine, healthy nutrition, and a proactive attitude towards wellbeing, Dave's story begins with a routine blood test that flagged an elevated PSA level – a silent sign that something was amiss. Topics Covered: Why "battle ready" fitness is about more than just being event-ready How a strong foundation of fitness, mobility, and mindset supported his recovery The challenges of post-op recovery, from pelvic floor retraining to regaining bladder control The role of HRV monitoring in recognising stress and tracking recovery How small, consistent habits are part of paying into your “health pension” Key Takeaways: Health doesn't guarantee immunity, but it significantly improves your resilience. A proactive check-up could be life-saving – don't wait for symptoms to appear. Recovery is a form of training: take it seriously, go slow, and trust the process. Long-term lifestyle habits like sleep, nutrition, and strength work really matter when it counts most.

He introduces the concept of "thin places" – sacred spaces or moments where the veil between heaven and earth seems thinner and we encounter God's presence more tangibly. Through moving accounts of families living in poverty, as well as drawing on the experience of Moses, Abraham and Jesus' ministry, Simon highlights how compassion and faith can create thin places that bridge the gap between heaven and earth. | Scripture | Exodus 3 Exodus 33 Daniel 3 1 Samuel 3 Luke 5:17-26 1 Corinthians 3:16 Acts 5:15 Matthew 18:20

But not before we dive into an enthralling discussion on an exciting company making waves in the healthcare and biotech sectors. In this episode, we're featuring Incanthera PLC, a trailblazing entity born from the University of Bradford in 2010. Specializing in cutting-edge dermatological cancer treatments, Incanthera has ventured into the premium cosmetic domain with its innovative Skin+CELL product. This novel offering promises to revolutionize skin health by delivering Vitamin B3 directly to skin cells. Under the leadership of Chairman Tim McCarthy and CEO Dr. Simon Ward, Incanthera has not only made a name for itself in healthcare but has also embarked on a significant partnership with Marionnaud in Switzerland—a member of the AS Watson Group. This collaboration is set to launch Skin+CELL across European and Asian markets, starting with Marionnaud's Swiss and Austrian outlets before expanding throughout Europe. With projections hinting at potential revenues skyrocketing from £10 million in the first year to over £90 million within three years, Incanthera's strategic pivot to the pharma-cosmetic arena hints at an expansive global market reach.

In the lead up to Outlaw triathlon events, this is probably the most asked question. We get plenty of others and so this week it's time for something a little different.   In the run up to the Outlaw events I normally present webinars to outline the best training approach and answer common questions. This time we are doing this as podcast and I'm joined by Outlaw ambassador Dan Ward.  Dan will be asking me the questions, some based on his curiosity around his own training and others on behalf of other potential Outlaws who have submitted their questions via social media. (TIP! This advice is still relevant, even if you are doing a non-Outlaw long distance triathlon.)   Some of the questions include: How much training should I be doing each week for the Full?  Do I need a coach? Does Z2 training really work? How do I know I'll make the swim cut off? Road bike or TT? Will wearing Nike VaporFly help me get a faster run time? I need to lose 10kg before race day. What's the best diet to help me do this? Will the results go onto Strava? I don't like wearing a watch on race day.   To find out more about Dan Ward please visit these social media channels. YouTube - Triathlondan Instagram - heyyydw You can also find out how much training he is really doing on Strava   We still have places for some Outlaw events. Outlaw Half Holkham (9 July) is the British Middle Distance Championships and is likely to be very popular. Enter soon HERE.   It's still possible to enter Outlaw Nottingham (30 July), Outlaw X (3 Sept), or if you fancy something faster, try the new Outlaw Sprint on 2 Sept.   Join our SWAT/High Performance Human tribe using this link, with a happiness guarantee!

"I would definitely encourage people to move from academia to industry, and vice versa.

Simon Ward has taken a varied route through his career in drug discovery and translational research, holding roles in academia, start-up Biotech and big Pharma.

Many times on this program, we talk about the importance of therapy. However, we acknowledge that therapy is a privilege, and is not always accessible or affordable to those that need it most. I've invited some of my previous guests to talk about access to care: where to find affordable therapy, and the tools and resources that are available, should therapy not be accessible.In this second episode in our Access to Care mini-series we welcome back actor, psychologist and educator, Simon Ward. Simon and I chat about creating community and the ways in which social media can both help and hinder that, and how it affects our mental health. Simon also provides a fantastic analogy for self care and ways to support ourselves when therapy isn't accessible.

Sneakernomics is a close encounter with the visionaries, artisans and journeymen who've made, and been made, by trainers. We'll follow in the footsteps of mavericks, hustlers and dreamers, and hear their tales of boom and bust, fame and infamy, hope and heartbreak. Across nine episodes, Sneakernomics tells the extraordinary origin stories of some of the world's biggest brands, and how sponsorship deals and celebrity culture redefined our relationship with products. It's also a business story – how leisure has evolved into a multi-billion dollar industry; a sports story – how games became organised and grew into a global spectacle; and it's a story of invention – how enthusiastic hobbyist-pioneers often took extraordinary risks that changed the course of sport and fashion. The sneaker story is characterised by fierce competition and rivalry. We explore how the quest to be number one tore families and friendships apart and divided towns. Above all, this is the story of the people behind the shoes. What you'll hear is a mix of interviews with many of the key individuals who've played their part in that extraordinary story, interlaced with moments of fiction inspired by their testimonies and our research. Written and presented by Nicholas Smith, with 1Xtra presenter Ace. The drama is written by Al Smith. Episode 9 Cast: Rob . . . . . Wilf Scolding Phil . . . . . Trevor White Waitress . . . . .

The fashion industry has frequently been perceived as fickle and shallow which has, over the years, left many questioning just how faith and fashion can go hand-in-hand? Here at Magnify, we're passionate about expressing ourselves through creativity and in particular fashion so we wanted to have this important conversation. In this episode, we spoke to Simon Ward, now retired Chief Operating Officer of the British Fashion Council who has been one of the most supportive people of Magnify since we launched our first print edition. After accidentally stumbling into the fashion world, Simon's spent 35 years working at BFC, which saw him leading London Fashion Week.He delves into his experience as a man of faith working within the world of fashion, and how the relationship between the two is more powerful than we might first think.
