CAUTION ADVISED: this podcast contains swearing.\n\xa0\nIs there a change you\u2019d like to make in your life? Something you\u2019re desperate to overcome, but can\u2019t see how? Or a goal you\u2019re scared to aim for, because it feels too far off? My guest on this week\u2019s podcast might just convince you to have a go. He\u2019s John McAvoy, endurance athlete extraordinaire, author and the man with one of the most inspirational stories I have ever heard. \n\xa0\nJohn was born into a notorious crime family and has served a total of 10 years in some of the UK\u2019s highest security prisons, for armed robbery. He was raised into a life of organised crime and, as a teenager, it was the only career path he could see for himself. In fact, he bought his first gun at the age of 16 and very quickly became one of the UK\u2019s most wanted men. How did he go from serving two life sentences to breaking British and World sporting records and giving talks to schoolchildren? From violent criminal to opinion leader, invited to 10 Downing Street for his views on the justice system? You\u2019ll have to listen and find out. \n\xa0\nNot only is every part of John\u2019s story worthy of a Hollywood movie script, the lessons and life advice he shares are relevant to each and every one of us. Whether you\u2019re interested in his rowing and Ironman success, how he transformed his moral code or how he overcame adversity, this really is a compelling conversation. I know you\u2019re going to be as gripped by John as I was.\nThanks to our sponsors:\nhttps://www.vivobarefoot.com/livemore\nhttps://www.athleticgreens.com/livemore\nhttps://www.leafyard.com/livemore\nOrder Dr Chatterjee's new book\xa0Happy Mind, Happy Life: UK version:\xa0https://amzn.to/304opgJ, US & Canada version:\xa0https://amzn.to/3DRxjgp\nShow notes available at\xa0https://drchatterjee.com/262\nSupport the podcast and enjoy Ad-Free episodes.
