Liam Hackett

In this week’s episode I speak to the incredible AUTHOR, ENTREPRENEUR and CEO…LIAM HACKETT. As CEO of the worlds largest anti-bullying charity, Ditch the Label, Liam is a shining example of how to turn what was once a painfully negative experience into a positive one, not only for himself, but one which benefits the lives of others and makes the world a better place. Having been rejected by his father, his fathers family, and his peers at school, it would be understood if Liam held on to a fair bit of resentment, however, his ability to forgive, empathise and feel compassion for those who are easily vilified due to their actions, having once been a victim to them himself, is not only inspiring, but is a huge lesson to take away for most of us. He also has a marvellous sense of humour, and kept me chuckling throughout. * I am SO excited that this episode is sponsored by DASH Water - as I am such a fan! DASH Water is literally made of water, bubbles and wonky fruit - which would otherwise be thrown away and wasted. I LOVE drinking a cold can to quench my thirst on a hot day, as it's so refreshing and hydrating, or, using it as a healthy, sugar-free, delicious mixer on the weekend. REALLY helps the hangover there's no sugar or sweetener (and guilt-free...as no calories..hehe) SO, make sure you use the code DADDYISSUES at the checkout and you'll get 30% off your first order!
