    He Broke His Neck, Lost His Rugby Career, then Built One of the UK's Fastest Growing Companies | James Laithwaite

    Today’s guest is entrepreneur and former rugby league player James Laithwaite. Describing himself as one of rugby league’s ‘unluckiest’ players, James Laithwaite broke the same leg four times, broke his neck - it was the first time his now-wife watched him play - and lost the only career he had ever imagined. At 27, he went from playing professional rugby league in front of tens of thousands to labouring on building sites, with a baby on the way and no fallback plan. Then he and his wife Michelle started meal prep business FuelHub. Their son was born on the day the company launched - James talks about leaving the hospital that morning to deliver its first meals. They later sold everything, emptied their savings and risked it all to keep it alive. Seven years on, FuelHub is one of the fastest growing companies in the UK. It produces around 25,000 meals a week, and works with Team GB, England Rugby, major football clubs, Eddie Hearn and Matchroom. This is a brilliant conversation about entrepreneurship, injury, identity, family, obsession and starting again.

    Real-Life Spider-Man: on Stan Lee, Climbing the World’s Tallest Buildings and Alex Honnold controversy

    Dan Goodwin, better known as Spider-Dan, is a legendary climber, daredevil and high-rise safety campaigner. In 1981, aged 25, he climbed the Sears Tower, then the tallest building in the world, wearing a homemade Spider-Man suit and using equipment he had designed himself. He later climbed the World Trade Center, among a dozen skyscrapers, free-soloed both sides of the CN Tower and developed an unlikely friendship with Spider-Man's creator and Marvel founder Stan Lee. We talk about controlling fear when one mistake means death, the moments he came closest to falling, why firefighters once tried to knock him from a building, and the real reason behind his spectacular climbs. They also discuss his complicated feelings about Alex Honnold and the way modern climbing history is presented, surviving stage-four cancer, the power and limitations of positive thinking, turning 70, and why Dan hopes he still has another 70 years ahead of him. This is a conversation about risk, recognition, survival and refusing to live an ordinary life. It's about challenging the possible.

    What Growing Up With An Alcoholic Parent Really Does To You - interview with Nacoa founder Hilary Henriques MBE

    Hilary Henriques MBE is the founder and CEO of Nacoa (National Association for Children of Alcoholics), a charity she established more than 35 years ago after discovering the profound impact parental alcoholism can have on children. We talk about growing up in chaotic homes, why children so often blame themselves for their parents' drinking, the hidden effects of childhood trauma in adulthood, breaking generational cycles, and whether forgiveness is always possible. Hilary shares stories from thousands of calls to the Nacoa helpline, including children as young as five, and reflects on a lifetime spent helping people realise they are not alone. We also discuss Nacoa's "Chasing Yesterday" campaign, which sees Calum Best and others attempt an extraordinary Guinness World Record by running two marathons across the International Date Line - effectively going back in time to do so! Don't worry... all is explained in the episode! It's a powerful conversation about childhood, resilience, and the lives we build afterwards.

    The CBBC star that rescued FIVE lions from a warzone: an interview with One Zoo Three's Cam Whitnall

    Cam Whitnall was once dubbed the World's Youngest Zookeeper. When his grandparents bought a dilapidated zoo, once known as the worst in the UK, and brought it back to life, they also created a home for their family. Cam grew up on the grounds, now known as Hertfordshire Zoo, in a bedroom overlooking the tiger enclosure. His childhood playground, where he and his brothers would play hide-and-seek after hours, was filled with endangered species from around the world. As Managing Director of The Big Cat Sanctuary and one of the stars of CBBC's One Zoo Three along with his brothers Aaron and Tyler, conservation has never just been a job - it's been his entire life. But in 2024, that life took an extraordinary turn. When five traumatised lions were discovered in war-torn Ukraine, Cam led an ambitious mission to bring them to safety in the UK, raising more than £500,000 and overseeing one of the most remarkable animal rescues in history. In this episode, we discuss growing up with big cats in his back garden, the realities of conservation, whether animals can suffer trauma, life in front of the camera, and what it takes to attempt something that most people would consider impossible. Cam also shares the story behind his new book, Lion Heart, and reflects on the lessons he's learned from a lifetime spent protecting some of nature's most magnificent creatures.

    Ask My Husband: Superstore's Jerry Is Me! - an Interview with Actor & Comedian Chris Grace

    Chris Grace is a comedian, actor and writer. We talk about growing up as a gay Chinese kid in Texas, why he's never felt like he truly belonged anywhere, losing his siblings, partner and parents in just a matter of a few short years, and what it takes to keep pursuing a dream for more than three decades. Chris shares why improv might be one of the most important life skills you can learn, the realities of trying to make it in comedy, and why he believes famous people aren't nearly as extraordinary as we think they are. It's a conversation about grief, identity, creativity and becoming yourself.

    Why Elon Musk Is Wrong About Mars - Interview with space expert Dr Niamh Shaw

    Dr. Niamh Shaw is an engineer, scientist and storyteller who has spent more than a decade chasing an extraordinary dream: to become a citizen astronaut. Along the way, she's spoken at NASA's Johnson Space Center, covered launches from Kennedy Space Center, trained for space, lived on a simulated Mars mission and experienced zero gravity aboard the infamous "Vomit Comet". We talk about whether humans should ever colonise Mars, why she believes Elon Musk's vision for humanity's future is fundamentally flawed, whether space tourism is closer than we think, the search for aliens, and why astronauts believe we need poets, priests and philosophers in space just as much as engineers. It's a conversation that starts with rockets, but ends up being about something much bigger: perspective, possibility and what it means to be human.

    Have We Turned Trauma Into An Identity? | interview with Richard L. Blake

    Richard L. Blake is a psychologist, breathwork researcher and author. This is a conversation that begins with breathwork, but quickly becomes about therapy culture, trauma, resilience and why Richard believes we've fundamentally changed the way we think about mental health. We discuss whether therapy can sometimes make people worse, why family estrangement is becoming more common, the science behind breathwork, the rise of "therapy speak", the role of genetics in depression and anxiety, and why Richard believes we've become psychologically more fragile.

    The Queen of Kids' TV: What Jim Henson Taught Me About Changing The World

    My guest this week is BAFTA Lifetime Achievement Award-winning writer and producer Jocelyn Stevenson, whose extraordinary career includes Sesame Street, The Magic School Bus, Bob the Builder, Fireman Sam and creating Fraggle Rock alongside Jim Henson. We talk about the lessons Jim Henson taught her, why he believed children's television could help stop war, the responsibility of creating stories for young minds, and what she thinks about growing up in a world of smartphones, social media and endless screen time. We also discuss curiosity, science, why children are far more capable than we often give them credit for, and why Jocelyn chose to reinvent herself as a children's author after decades in television, with her fantastic series The Waterubas. This is a conversation about the power of stories, the importance of kindness, and the people shaping the next generation. == Note - apologies for the technical issues with the camera in this episode if you're watching it.

    Ready For the Next Episode - Solo episode 03

    Fair warning: this is a solo episode. If the thought of me talking for getting on for 40 minutes with only a loose structure makes you want to jump headfirst into fire, flick back through the other 80+ episodes for one you haven't watched or listened to, or come back on Monday, when I'll have another incredible guest. Since September last year, when I brought this podcast back, I've been healing out loud, somewhat. This podcast has become a real-time document of the aftermath of tragic grief, and this idiot's effort to make sense of - well, everything - while wanting desperately to spread positivity and the idea of possibility. This episode is a quieter mediation on just that. No milestone to speak of, no guest, just an honest update on where I am, what Project Possible is becoming, and what it feels like to start again without starting from scratch. In this episode, I talk about rebuilding, how hope can feel uncomfortable, the idea of “New Game+”, and why I’m starting to look up again after - amidst? - the hardest period of my life. I also talk about what the podcast has given me, the opportunities beginning to appear, and why Project Possible feels like the thing everything else might grow from. I think I'm ready for the next episode. Follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/richleighpod ===== Interviews that might just change your life. And if not…?

    My Music Teacher Said: "Black People Like You Don't Go To Uni" - Jazz LEGEND Courtney Pine CBE

    Courtney Pine CBE is one of the most influential figures in jazz. A pioneering saxophonist, composer and broadcaster, he's spent four decades redefining the genre, sharing stages and studios with everyone from Herbie Hancock, Stevie Wonder and Gang Starr's Guru to Kate Bush, Mick Jagger and Bryan Ferry. But you don't have to be a jazz fan to enjoy this conversation. We talk about why his own music teacher told him that "black people like you don't go to university", the surprising origins of the saxophone and jazz, hip hop, AI, creativity, improvisation, and why, after 40 years in music, Courtney still believes he has so much left to learn.

    Mindset Coach: Has Self-Improvement Gone Too Far? Is it making us LESS happy?

    Lily Silverton is a mindset coach, speaker and author of Prioritise This. We discuss self-improvement, therapy culture, ambition, loneliness, social media, productivity, work-life balance and why so many people feel overwhelmed despite having more information than ever before. We also explore whether people can become trapped in cycles of self-development and self-analysis, the pressure to become the "best version of yourself", and why success, achievement and optimisation don't always lead to fulfilment. A fascinating conversation about modern life, what really matters, and how to prioritise the things that make life worth living.

    'The Mindful Soldier' Ash Alexander-Cooper OBE on Resilience, Fatherhood & Belonging

    Ash Alexander-Cooper OBE is a former British Army Colonel and officer in the Royal Gurkha Rifles. He completed eight tours of Afghanistan and spent seven years deployed in some of the world's toughest environments. He’s also a world-championship athlete, and international musician. This conversation isn't really about war, though. It's about resilience. Belonging. Fatherhood. We discuss Ash's turbulent childhood, finding belonging in teams, the realities of combat, leadership under pressure, and why resilience isn't something you're born with, but something you build. We also explore the ideas behind his new book, Mindful Soldier, including "the second arrow", getting outside your comfort zone, and practical ways to navigate life's toughest moments. A thoughtful conversation about adversity, belonging, and what it really takes to keep moving forward with an extraordinary human being.

We talk about why success wasn't making her happy, and what she learned from walking away from a profitable company she'd spent years building.

    The Cutoff Culture Epidemic Nobody Wants to Talk About: Tania Khazaal

    Around 1 in 4 people are estranged from a family member. Tania Khazaal believes we're living through a family estrangement epidemic - and a silent epidemic at that. One fuelled by social media, modern culture, and our growing inability to have difficult conversations. After becoming estranged from her own mother, Tania eventually rebuilt that relationship and now helps others do the same. We discuss family estrangement, forgiveness, accountability, healing, why she challenged Oprah publicly, and what becomes possible when people stop asking who's right and start asking how to move forward. A fascinating conversation about one of the biggest issues nobody seems to be talking about. Subscribe wherever you watch or listen - it makes a huge difference to me and the success of the show.

    Why Being a Nerd is a Superpower - DJ Yoda

    Duncan Beiny - better known as DJ Yoda - has spent more than 30 years building a career that makes almost no sense on paper. A hip-hop DJ obsessed with breakfast cereal boxes. A turntablist who creates audiovisual shows from films, cartoons and pop culture. A self-confessed nerd who turned curiosity into a career. In this conversation, we talk about meeting Gang Starr's Guru at 14 years old, learning to DJ before the internet existed, why the best artists obsess over details, and how spending years doing things "wrong" can sometimes be the fastest route to finding your own style. We also discuss creativity, hip-hop's golden era, video games, AI, Biz Markie, Tarantino, collecting weird things, and why the people who stand out most are often the ones willing to stay a little weird. This is a conversation about originality, curiosity, and what happens when you stop worrying about fitting in and start following what genuinely interests you.

    The Friendship That Won Race Across The World - Jo & Kush

    Jo Diop and Kush Burman are the winners of the latest series of hit BBC series Race Across the World. Here they are in their FIRST podcast interview since winning. At just 19 years old, the childhood best friends from Liverpool travelled more than 12,000 kilometres across Europe and Asia, racing from Sicily to Mongolia without smartphones, flights or modern comforts, eventually crossing the finish line first and winning the £20,000 prize. But what made Jo and Kush stand out wasn't just the race. Viewers connected deeply with their friendship, humour, honesty and the way they supported each other throughout the journey. In this conversation, we discuss the reality of spending 51 days together, what the race taught them about friendship, anxiety, masculinity, travel, social media, human nature, and how life has changed since becoming two of the best-loved contestants the show has ever seen.

    Triple Amputee Veteran Told He’d Never Sail Again… Then Crossed the Pacific SOLO

    Craig Wood is a former British Army rifleman, a triple amputee and ocean adventurer. At 18 years old, Craig lost both legs and one arm after being blown up by a controlled IED in Afghanistan. After weeks in a coma and years of recovery, he was told he’d never sail again. Last year, he became the first triple amputee to sail solo and unsupported across the Pacific Ocean. In this episode, we discuss Craig’s childhood, joining the military at 17, surviving the explosion, waking up in hospital as a triple amputee, identity loss, recovery, addiction, sobriety, sailing around the world, fatherhood, and the mindset that helped him rebuild his life. We also talk about happiness, purpose, trauma, why doctors shouldn’t define people’s limits, and what happens when you stop letting fear decide what you’re capable of.

    “It’s Never Too Late To Have A Good Childhood” - Jaz Ampaw-Farr

    Jaz Ampaw-Farr believes it’s never too late to have a good childhood. An internationally renowned speaker, former teacher, and advocate for resilience and human connection, Jaz has spent years helping people rewrite the stories they were born into. Because she had to do it herself. Jaz grew up surrounded by violence, abuse, neglect, racism, foster care and unimaginable instability. She was homeless at university, sexually abused as a child, and convinced for much of her early life that she might never make it to adulthood. In this conversation, we talk about the five teachers who quietly changed the course of her life, the power of “everyday heroes,” and why breaking the cycle is only the beginning. We also explore trauma, identity, shame, self-worth, education, parenting, possibility, and what it really means to rewrite your story. Emotional. Honest. Hopeful.

    “Why We’re Turning Against Each Other” - Conflict Aid Veteran

    We're more polarised in the West than ever. It's tearing families apart. Rhett Power spent years working in war zones with the Peace Corps and USAID, witnessing first-hand what happens when societies fracture - and when people stop seeing each other as human. Nearly a million people were killed in the conflicts and genocides we discuss in this conversation - the very real cost of polarisation. Rhett recently giving a TEDx talk called How To Host A Bipartisan Dinner that caught my eye. I wanted to speak to him about polarisation, outrage, fear and whether modern society is heading in the wrong direction. We discuss: political division and empathy fear, identity and human behaviour entrepreneurship and resilience grief and self-talk leadership and culture why “your self-talk becomes team talk” A thoughtful conversation about humanity, conflict and whether we’ve forgotten how to truly talk to each other again.

    The D.O.C: The Man That Changed Hip Hop

    The D.O.C. may be one of the most influential figures in hip hop history. Your favourite rapper's favourite rapper. Many have said that hip hop would look very different without them - but in the case of The D.O.C., none could disagree. A foundational force behind the rise of West Coast rap, he helped shape the sound of Dr. Dre, Snoop Dogg and gangsta rap itself. He received a Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award as an official member of N.W.A. A car accident more than 35 years ago destroyed D.O.C’s vocal cords at the height of his powers - and in doing so, robbed hip hop of his talent as a rising star. A talent he believes can be resurrected with AI. In this conversation, The D.O.C discusses: - whether hip hop lost its greatest ever rapper - his role in shaping Dr Dre’s sound - his first thoughts of Eminem, Kendrick Lamar and lyrical greatness - AI recreating his voice - spirituality, loss, reinvention and purpose and why he believes his best work may still be ahead of him. This is a conversation about identity, legacy, creativity and what happens when the thing that defines you is suddenly taken away.

And if not…? You’ll probably enjoy them anyway. While we're all trying to be better versions of ourselves, this podcast asks: 'what's truly possible?' Project Possible, hosted by me, Rich Leigh, explores this with incredible guests from the world of business, sport, entertainment and academia. Between the second and third series, I made the decision to go full-time on this show. I sold my successful 10 year old PR agency after my youngest brother Jordan took his own life. I realised that I needed to run towards passion and purpose, and my dream of sharing positivity and possibility as a career - this podcast is my effort to do just that.
