#388: The King of Chemo Iain Ward on Using Fitness Challenges To Get Over The Pity Party and The Power Of Your Mindset When Handling Difficult Situations!
"3 years left to live, 2 records to break, 2.3 million to raise and 0 excuses" Iain Liam Ward was diagnosed with brain cancer in May 2020 and has spent the last two years raising money for cancer research with his incredible fitness challenges. He's trying to break the world record for the most money raised for cancer; but he isn't asking people for donations (although he's grateful for them), instead he is trying to gain more social media followers so he can reach out to big brands that will sponsor him for races and donate that money to cancer research. He already has 1.5 million followers on TikTok (at the time of recording) and is exploding on the other channels as well. Be sure to give him a follow after this podcast. Here are some of the things we talked about in today's show: How he is the luckiest of unlucky people in his brain cancer diagnosis What stage 3 brain cancer means for his fitness and training Why he's happy he found out How to avoid the pity party when you get bad news How the fitness mindset and thinking a certain way helped him cope And more..

FROM THE VAULT: Dietitian Orla Walsh On Weight Loss, Gut Health and IBS!
This episode first aired 18th January 2019 Left a review or rating for the podcast? Be sure to take a screen shot and email it to my assistant at brian@briankeanefitness.com or gary@briankeanefitness.com for a really cool bonus. Orla qualified as a Dietitian from Kings College London. She initially obtained an honors degree in Physiology from Trinity College, allowing her to apply her detailed knowledge of the human body to the nutritional management of conditions and diseases. Since then Orla upgraded her BA in Physiology to an MA in Physiology and went on to achieve a Masters in Clinical Nutrition at Roehampton University, London. She is one of my 'go to' people when it comes to the latest research on topics and I love her ability to argues the pros and cons for nearly any dietary approach. If you struggle with weight or fat loss, are on the autoimmune spectrum (thyroid issues, IBS, PCOS) or want to know how alcohol affects your sex drive (for the guys), then this is a must listen.
