Dave Cottrell regularly hosts the Master The Mind Master Anything podcast which offers advice on many different mindset and mental health topics.
In early life Dave was a victim, then he became a survivor, now he is something else, someone who could make a massive positive impact on those around him, a coach, a mentor, a role model.
He started to introduce mindset into his PT and nutrition business and suddenly he was helping people with things far beyond their weight.
Dave’s podcasts can all be found here.
