In this compelling episode of Stripping Off with Matt Haycox, Matt sits down with Natalie Russell, a self-esteem and relationship recovery coach whose incredible story is one of resilience and transformation. Facing a life of abuse, addiction, prison, and toxic relationships, Natalie has endured unimaginable hardship. But instead of letting her past define her, she’s used her journey to inspire others and empower herself to become a role model for breaking generational cycles of pain. Natalie’s story will resonate with anyone who’s experienced adversity, whether it’s in relationships, personal growth, or addiction recovery. She shares the inner resolve it takes to walk away from toxicity and the process of healing that she calls “learning to love the woman that I am.” As Natalie so powerfully states, “If I can’t find a decent man, I’m sure as hell going to raise two.” This episode is a must-listen for anyone ready to break free and create a life of purpose.

We’ve got Danny Crates on the podcast – Paralympic gold medalist, world champion, and an all-around legend who’s turned his life story into a masterclass on resilience and determination. Danny breaks down the moment everything changed – a freak accident that cost him his arm. Instead of letting that be the end, it became the start of something bigger. From hospital days full of humor to stepping onto the rugby field with one arm, Danny’s story is all about thriving through adversity. He even takes us through training for the Paralympics, going from bronze in Sydney to gold in Athens. This guy doesn’t just compete – he dominates, and his mindset is something we can all learn from. But it’s not just about medals. Danny opens up about life after sport – transitioning into broadcasting, becoming a top keynote speaker, and applying his “5 Pillars of Performance” to business and everyday life. He’s got this amazing ability to connect elite athletics to high performance in any field. We also dive into the mental side – what separates good athletes from great ones and the mental barriers that hold people back. Whether you’re an athlete, business owner, or just looking to level up, Danny’s story will light a fire under you.

OnlyFans Exposed: Money, Sex & The Truth!

In today's episode, we've got an absolutely raw and powerful chat with James Roffey. From kicking a ball at Bisham Abbey alongside legends like Beckham and Shearer to battling the darkest corners of anorexia and bulimia, James opens up about his rollercoaster journey with an honesty that's both heart-wrenching and inspiring. James shares the intense pressures he faced, especially from himself. He talks about the heartbreak of being told he wasn't good enough to turn pro just before his 17th birthday – a blow that shattered his world. We dive deep into James' struggles with his self-worth, the rapid decline of his mental health, and the traumatic events that made everything worse. His battle with eating disorders started as anorexia, driven by an extreme need for control, and later morphed into bulimia, bringing severe health issues. Listen as James recounts making himself sick up to 50 times a day, the secrecy and shame surrounding his condition, and the devastating impact on his family. Despite hitting rock bottom – including signing a do not resuscitate form at just 21 years old and weighing only 5 and a half stone – James' story is also one of resilience and recovery. As a resilience and mental health coach, James offers profound insights into the importance of purpose and how he's managed to balance work, family, and his own well-being. His journey makes him a trustworthy and notable source for understanding the struggles of mental health and eating disorders.

How To Get SHREDDED in 75 Days! Turn PAIN into POWER!

This week, I'm metaphorically stripping off Chris Baber's chef whites and diving deep to uncover the secret ingredient to his success. Chris Baber, a celebrated chef, BBC Good Food contributor, and best-selling author, joins us to share his journey from humble beginnings to culinary fame. We chat about the entrepreneurial spirit that sparked his passion for cooking and how it led him to thrive in the intense world of Michelin Star restaurants, rubbing shoulders with top-tier chefs like Gordon Ramsay. Chris opens up about the challenges of staying creative in an industry where everything has essentially been "done to death." We also delve into the business side of things—how many top chefs master both the kitchen and the boardroom. Chris shares his insights on building a strong social media following and the networking savvy that landed him a coveted gig with Marks and Spencer's. Plus, he talks about his book, "Easy," and the importance of simplicity in achieving business success.

This week, I’m stripping off and going down on the colourful journey of Daniel O'Reilly, (aka Dapper Laughs) exploring the highs and lows that have shaped his life and career. Dapper reflects on losing everything, and the huge fallout he faced with the public after he was CANCELLED! From the early days of crafting characters to the unexpected challenges of being branded “pro rape” by the media, I delve into the relentless storm of scrutiny Dapper has faced. Amidst the chaos, I uncover the huge support that sustained him through the darkest of times as he sheds light on his struggles with addiction and mental health. “For about 3 or 4 years, I'd just drink and sniff coke. I was just out. I was just hiding from my life, escaping my life.” And just when you thought we'd covered it all, we'll explore the profound impact of fatherhood and the delicate balance of comedy and sensitivity. Who is Daniel O’Reiley: Daniel O’Reilly burst onto the comedy scene with a bang, blending laughter with controversy, rising to fame through social media platforms like Facebook, YouTube, and Vine, captivating audiences with his bold and unapologetic humour. His big break came with the ITV2 series "Dapper Laughs On the Pull," but the show's cancellation after one season due to criticism marked a pivotal moment in his career. Things took a darker turn in 2014 when resurfaced jokes about sexual assault sparked widespread backlash, leading to a public downfall. Daniel took a step back, shedding the Dapper Laughs persona to focus on personal growth and reflection. Key takeaways: Resilience in the Face of Adversity: Dapper's story teaches us the importance of resilience in navigating life's challenges. Despite facing intense scrutiny and career setbacks, he chose to confront his demons and come out stronger. Personal Growth and Redemption: By stepping away from his controversial persona and focusing on self-improvement, he demonstrated the transformative power of reflection and the ability to redefine yourself in the face of adversity. Embracing Sobriety and Prioritising Mental Health: Dapper's milestone of celebrating 500 days of sobriety highlights the importance of prioritising mental health and well-being. Dapper's story inspires us to prioritise our mental health and seek support when needed. TIMESTAMPS 0:00 - Intro 1:17 - Dapper's Backstory 4:43 - Being Branded Pro Rape - Losing the TV Show into Losing Everything 8:30 - How was the relationship with the missus during and after this time? 9:36 - Support Network 10:25 - Do you ever miss it or do you see it differently now? 12:35 - What was the turning point? 16:17 - Mindset 20:03 - Where did the ideas for the characters come from? 21:10 - How do you test things between jokes and social media accounts? 23:43 - Taking Control of Brand, Distribution, Business, Self-Promotion 26:43 - Getting a Completely Different Audience from Podcasting 29:18 - How has being a father changed you? 30:07 - Has Being a Dad Affected Work or Are They Separate? 31:01 - How do you do Comedy without risking offending someone? 35:28 - 2 Films Out, 1 On The Way - How did they come about? 41:11 - Perspective 44:47 - Misfits Boxing, Cage Fight and Training around Sobriety 51:41 - Do you fear slipping out of sobriety again? 53:00 - How has the friendship circle changed since being sober? 55:41 - What's Next to Look Forward to with Dapper? 56:14 - Conclusion - Thanks for watching!

I'm stripping off with Tre Lowe. Get ready to hear about where it all began for Tre, the moments that moulded him, and the grit that's taken him far. We'll chat about his upbringing, work ethic, and how he tackled challenges head-on, all while keeping excuses at bay. Who is Tre Lowe: Tre Lowe isn't your average musician-turned-businessman. He's a powerhouse, navigating the worlds of music, mentoring, and entrepreneurship. You might recognise him as the standout contestant on BBC's "The Apprentice" 2024, where he made waves by smashing records with a jaw-dropping £38.7 million win in a Formula-E task. But Tre's talents don't stop there - he's also the creative force behind the chart-topping hit "Body Groove" and has lent his magic touch to remixes for industry legends like Usher and Mariah Carey. In addition to his musical endeavours, Tre is a passionate mentor and speaker, drawing from his own experiences to inspire others. Despite facing health challenges at a young age, including temporary paralysis and tinnitus, which ‘made him want to die’, coupled with the unexpected death of his brother, Tre has emerged stronger than ever, founding Alpha Clique to empower future leaders. His mission? To leave a lasting legacy that transcends industries and changes lives for the better. Key takeaways: Resilience and Overcoming Adversity: Tre's journey is a testament to resilience and the ability to overcome adversity. Despite facing health challenges at a young age, including temporary paralysis and tinnitus, along with the unexpected death of his brother, Tre didn't let these setbacks define him. Instead, he emerged stronger than ever, channelling his experiences into founding Alpha Clique to empower future leaders. A Man of Many Talents: Tre's story underscores the power of multi-faceted talents. Not only is he a successful musician and songwriter, but he's also a dedicated mentor, speaker, and entrepreneur. From chart-topping hits like "Body Groove" to securing a record-breaking win on "The Apprentice" and founding Alpha Clique, Tre's diverse skill set, and passions have allowed him to excel in various fields. This serves as inspiration for listeners to embrace their own talents and pursue their passions across different domains. Legacy and Impact: Tre's mission to leave a lasting legacy that transcends industries and changes lives for the better resonates deeply. Through his work as a mentor, speaker, and entrepreneur, Tre is dedicated to empowering future leaders and making a positive impact on the world.

Stripping Off with Matt Haycox Official Trailer

This week, I had the pleasure of chatting with Erika Doyle, the mastermind behind Drink Dry, shaking up the beverage scene in the GCC like never before. We delved into Erika's journey, her reasons for going alcohol-free, and her pioneering work in the non-alcoholic movement. But it's not just about drinks; we discussed health, wellness, and breaking stereotypes. Erika shared the ups and downs of building Drink Dry, from tackling gender dynamics to navigating global markets and industry conflicts. We also looked ahead to the exciting future of non-alcoholic beverages. So, grab your favorite non-alcoholic beverage (maybe a Drink Dry?), relax, and join us for an hour of wisdom, laughs, and entrepreneurial inspiration. Don't miss it! Who is Erika Doyle? Erika Doyle is the brains and the brawn behind Drink Dry, the game-changer in the GCC beverage scene. Erika's story isn't just about mixing drinks; it's about shaking up an entire industry. She stumbled into entrepreneurship when she launched Drink Dry, the first of its kind in the region, offering an array of alcohol-free drinks, from wine to beer to spirit alternatives. With awards like the Entrepreneur Woman SME Leaders Award for F&B Leader and a spot in Arabian Business's '50 Most Inspirational Women 2022,' she's making waves, alright. Now, let's talk growth. Drink Dry isn't just a mum-and-pop operation anymore; it's a movement. With over 350 outlets in HORECA and 132 retail stores nationwide, it's clear that Erika's onto something big. But it's not just about sales; it's about spreading the word. Through blogs and social media, she's dishing out recipes and inspiration, one mocktail at a time. Erika's not stopping at the UAE. No sir! In 2023, she took Drink Dry international, hitting up Kuwait and expanding operations to Oman, Maldives, Bahrain, and Jordan. I’d call that a power move. Erika is just getting started. Key takeaways: Personal Conviction in Business: You know, what struck me most about Erika is her personal conviction in business. Her decision to stop drinking wasn't just a lifestyle change; it became the driving force behind her entrepreneurial journey. It's a powerful reminder that sometimes our personal choices can lead to BIG business opportunities. Education and Advocacy: Erika's passion for educating consumers is a reminder that businesses can be a force for positive change in society when they prioritise education and awareness.
