Mental Edge 93: Why You Can’t Do It Alone 10.03.2025

Mental Edge 92: Fear Is the Sign You’re On the Right Track 09.03.2025

Mental Edge 91: The Truth About Your Limits 08.03.2025

You are only scratching the surface of what you’re capable of. Even when you feel like quitting. Even when your body says no more. Even when your mind is completely spent. You still have more in you.

The one shift high performers make to break...

Mental Edge 90: How to Expand Your Mental Capacity & Thrive Under Pressure 07.03.2025

If you’re ambitious, you probably feel like you’re at capacity. You’re pushing for more success—but the more you take on, the heavier it feels. You’re maxed out. Stretched thin. Always under pressure. Most people will tell you to do less. But that’s not the answer. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: Why pressure builds up—and why most people handle it wrong. The real rea...

Mental Edge 89: 400 years of war—and the secret that finally ended it 06.03.2025

For 400 years, the Comanches were unstoppable. They fought against state-backed armies with cutting-edge weapons—and won with bows and arrows. Every officer who tried to defeat them failed. Until one man changed the game completely. And the way he did it? It’s the exact strategy you need to win the battle inside your own mind. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: How one o...

If you feel confused about how to train your mind, you’re not alone. Every so-called expert tells you something different. But elite mental fitness comes down to just three components: Resilience – Your ability to adapt to stress and thrive. Clarity – The power to see yourself, your path, and your potential clearly. Character – Becoming who you’re meant to be through deliberate training. In this e...

Mental Edge 86: Why Traditional Self-Improvement is Failing You 03.03.2025

You’ve tried podcasts, books, therapy, business coaching, meditation apps… And you’re still not where you want to be. The problem isn’t you.

Mental Edge 85: The Stolen Cow & The Secret to True Freedom 02.03.2025

The 3 types of clarity you need to create real freedom. If you’ve ever felt lik...

Mental Edge 84: The Moment I Discovered if I Was a Coward or a Hero 01.03.2025

An avalanche roared toward us, and in that split second, I discovered who I really was. It wasn’t luck or instinct—it was mental training. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I share the moment when everything was on the line, and how it taught me that high performance isn't about rising to expectations, but about falling back on preparation. I also discuss: Why leaving critical moment...

Mental Edge 83: Why Mental Health Advice is Screwing Over High Performers 28.02.2025

The mental fitness world is failing ambitious people. It’s the only area where the dominant advice is “just be less ambitious.” Nowhere else in life would you be told to stop trying to be better. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: The ridiculous double standard in mental health advice. Why your ambition isn’t the problem—your training is. How to increase your mental resi...

In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: Why people want you to stay small and unexceptional. The real reason pressure feels overwhelming. How to increase your capacity for challenge instead of backing down...

Mental Edge 81: If you're stuck, ask yourself this 26.02.2025

When you don’t know what to do, ask yourself one thing: “What makes the best adventure?” Because life isn’t about playing it safe. It’s about leaning into challenge, risk, and uncertainty. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I explore: Why we lose our sense of adventure as we get older. The 3-question test to know if you should take the leap. How my leap into the unknown changed everyt...

The real reason successful people seek out coaches, mentors, and gu...

Mental Edge 79: The Royal Marines Test That Breaks Almost Everyone 24.02.2025

Ask any Royal Marines recruit what the worst part of training is… and you’ll probably get the same answer. It’s brutal. It requires insane willpower. And it breaks a lot of men.

In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: The hardest test in Royal Marines training (and why it makes everything else easier). How...

Mental Edge 78: The untold power of changing your identity 23.02.2025

Can who you are completely change? History proves that it can. Take Cynthia Ann Parker, a girl kidnapped by the Comanches at 9 years old. Raised among them, she became Comanche herself—so much so that when she was rescued 24 years later, she was devastated. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I explore: How identity isn’t fixed—it’s shaped by your environment. Why the people, habits, a...

Mental Edge 77: Endlessly distracted? This is for you 22.02.2025

Why the most i...

Mental Edge 76: If success feels hard, try this 21.02.2025

What happens when success feels forced? On a cold February night in Shepherd’s Bush, I watched Warren Zeiders perform at the O2. And while the gig was solid, something felt off. It didn’t feel like art—it felt like an act. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: The hidden cost of inauthenticity in high performance. Why forcing a persona that isn’t you leads to burnout. How a...

Mental Edge 75: The Royal Marines taught me this about fear 20.02.2025

There’s a huge misconception about elite performers. People think they don’t feel fear. But the truth? They feel it just as much as anyone else. They’ve just trained themselves to respond differently. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I share a powerful lesson from Royal Marine training about fear, why avoiding it keeps you trapped in mediocrity, and how to train yourself to push pas...

Mental Edge 74: The real reason you feel stuck (it’s not your fault) 19.02.2025

How to escape the quick-fix trap and start training your mindset properly. If yo...

Mental Edge 73: I made £20k in a month. It wasn’t what I expected. 18.02.2025

Mental Edge 72: The 3 Enemies of Freedom (Avoid Them at All Costs) 17.02.2025

If you want true freedom, there are three enemies you need to watch out for. Because these three mindsets will ruin your potential before you even realise it’s happening. In this episode of The Freedom Project Podcast, I break down: The woo-woo spiritualists who convince you to stop trying. The emotionless hustlers who tell you success is just about shutting down feelings. The mental health narrat...

Mental Edge 71: You don’t get another shot at this life 16.02.2025

Are you living fully—or just living safely?

Mental Edge 70: Why I force myself to show up online 15.02.2025

Last week, one of my TikToks blew up—half a million views, thousands of comments. And I hated it.

Mental Edge 69: What if your limits aren’t real? 14.02.2025
