    Welcome to Episode 17 of the Game is the Game. I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

    On this episode I sit down with Feng Shui practitioner, Michelle Lillicrap.

    Michelle has been on a life journey that has taken her from Occupational Therapist via her own cancer diagnosis to a eventual life calling through the medium of Feng Shui.

    Michelle is a beautiful soul and this is a heartfelt story that speaks to how helping to facilitate healing so that everyone can be their best version of themselves is maybe the real purpose of life itself.

    In truth this episode is about so much more than Feng Shui, Michelle and I have known each other for over 15 years when we were random housemates in our younger years. This episode was really two friends sitting down and talking about life. I hope you enjoy it.

  • The one with the sportscaster ft Alex Jordan

    Welcome to Episode 15 of the Game is the Game. I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

    On this episode I sit down with international sportscaster, Alex Jordan

    It almost seems reductive to narrow Alex Jordan down to 'just' being a sportscaster as she has done so much more than that.

    From leaving Barbados and backpacking solo across Europe to being an award winning 1Xtra radio host to the Alex Jordan Morning Show and eventually sportscasting around the world.

    It's a fascinating insight into a journey in sportscasting and presenting that was far from conventional and as Alex freely admits also involved being in the right place at the right time. Yet even that would be a disservice to the path she has taken and travelled.

    Lock in for this episode - you'll love the story told in only a way that Alex could tell it.

  • The one about perseverance ft Callum Reynolds (professional footballer)
    2024/01/06
    Welcome to Episode 14 of the Game is the Game. I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

    On this episode I sit down with professional footballer, Callum Reynolds

    Callum has a unique football story that saw him go from non-league football to the Premier League and back to non-league football with no stops in between.

    A journey that could have broken him instead saw him forge a successful professional career at the top of the non-league game.

    It's a fascinating insight into the journey of a pro footballer but outside the glamorous lights of top flight football.

    You can find out more about Callum and prosportsrecoveryuk here

    On this episode I sit down with Illiyin Morrison (Mixing up Motherhood)

    Illiyin is a midwife, birth debrief facilitator, author and mother of two. She qualified as a midwife in 2017 and went on to work in a busy south London hospital. Upon leaving clinical work she embarked on a journey to support those in the perinatal trauma.

    In this episode we spoke about everything from difficulty with conception, to miscarriage, still birth and difficult birth, postnatal, infant feeding and relationship difficulties.

    This was an eye-opening and raw conversation that was as much a learning experience for me as I hope it will be for the listener.

    On this episode I sit down with DJ Godfather (UK).

  • The one with the journalist ft Carl Anka
    2023/07/05
    Welcome to Episode 11 of the Game is the Game.

    I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

    On this episode I sit down with Carl Anka. Carl Anka is a journalist for The Athletic and a best selling author having co-authored two books with Marcus Rashford

    You Are A Champion was WHSmith’s Book of the Year in 2021, and was the number one bestselling children’s book.

    That said most probably know Carl Anka as a football journalist who covers Manchester United but his story is so much more than football journalism. The goal was never to end up in the field and his career journey has not followed a conventional or linear path.

    This episode is one for all listeners but will particularly interest those who have a desire to work in sports journalism or are interested in the minutiae of creative writing.

  • The one with the former drug addict emcee ft Jimmy Davis
    2023/05/23
    Welcome to Episode 10 of the Game is the Game.

    I've been fortunate in life to meet an array of inspirational individuals across varied professions. The Game is the Game is an opportunity for them to tell their stories and hopefully inspire others to find their calling.

    On this episode I sit down with Jimmy Davis.

    Jimmy Davis is a multi-faceted talent. Emcee, university lecturer, podcast host, presenter, public speaker, DJ and everything else in between.

    We first met circa 2013 when I saw Jimmy support Luke Concannon (formerly Nizlopi) at a gig in London.

    His music immediately resonated with me because he was an emcee willing to spit about more than the usual mundane subjects associated with the genre.

    Socially conscious and hard hitting lyricism matched with must see stage presence led to Jimmy and I forming a connection which has existed for many years.

    Yet for all of his music success - Jimmy has a deeper story that speaks to personal hurdles he had to overcome, that being drug addiction and how he came out the other side.

    Jimmy didnt hesitate to agree when I asked him if he was willing to chop this all up on the game is the game. I hope you enjoy the episode.
