S5 Ep4: Tim Lovejoy - "If you value something show it attention".

This week's Monday Mile takes us on a longer stroll in West London along the bank of the River Thames. He is best known for being a TV presenter and Podcast Host, but is more than that. Do the shows Soccer AM, and Sunday Brunch ring a bell?  I have had the honour of being a guest on his show and his podcast so it was epic to flip the switch and host Tim on my podcast. It's Tim Lovejoy. We tap into how Tim has utilised his passion for self development and intrigue for learning to read his way out of depression. The different types meditation he has used and learned, one of which includes, (WALKING) and observing, so we did just that. The importance of living in the moment and how meditation can be a tool for that. His 2 self check-in alarms each day... We tapped into the importance of values, how they are learned and instilled within us. "If you value something show it attention, whether it's a friend, a partner, a cat, dog or a hobby" . We also tap into competition and fair game and his lack of empathy for "CHEATS" which comes back round to football. It's a meaty episode with some strong takeaways. Aimee will be probing for answers from the full spectrum of routines; the early birds who have finely tuned Monday mornings, to the late risers who struggle to get up before 11am. How do elite athletes find the motivation to kick start their week come rain or shine? How do celebrities deliver no matter what the time of day? What knowledge can they pass on? Each episode drops on a Monday morning as a bitesize piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it. Aimee will meet each of her guests for a walk and a chat and over the course of the mile she will find out how they cope on a Monday morning - their idiosyncrasies, breakfast routines, alarm noises - and how, when they need to, find the motivation to kick-on through the week. Sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes, entrepreneurs, doctors, authors and broadcasters ’ secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.
