Freddie Bennett has a fascinating story of highs, all the trappings, tragic loss, devastating lows, and being utterly let down by the traditional “Self Help” industry. Funtime Freddie somehow escaped his downward spiral of drugs and alcohol to becoming a modern day Forest Gump with his endurance pursuits and has truly found his “second mountain”.

This is a discussion of plateauing on your first mountain – your first main chapter in life. A discussion of reinvention and the catalyst of change. A discussion of taking psychological value from pushing your body to unthinkable extremes. A discussion of finding your centre and your drive, when all the traditional signals don’t move you.

This episode is for everyone who is succeeding at some level in life, and yet life is without meaning and fulfilment. It’s for those that know there is more to life and more to themselves than is currently being expressed, but they just can’t put their finger on what is broken, missing or wrong.

Plus, Freddie is captivating with his self depreciation, humour, Funtime Freddie antics and brutal honesty.
