Edited by Ciaran Austin - Follow @ciaranaustin
---
In this episode I got up close and personal with the vegan muscle powerhouse Mr Fraser Bayley. We discussed his young, mental health, having a baby and the state of the planet, as well as the evolving Alpha Male. We touched on our favorite metaphor 'The Matrix' as a way to explain our awakening in to the world and coming to the painful realisation that a lot of what we are taught as children especially about animals and health is incorrect and misleading.
And that with every action we take we have the power to alter our future.
Hope you enjoy this episode please connect with Fraser and Lauren on their website https://evolvingalpha.mykajabi.com or ther popular Facebook page and group Evolving Alpha https://www.facebook.com/evolvingalpha/
