So welcome to episode four of James Smith podcast and theoretically there's only my third one.

First of all, I just want to say thank you to everyone that rated the podcast so far.

My last one went to number one in the UK and I can't really express the people how crazy that is.

and if there's even just a few things that you take away from my story that could implement or

change your life, I think that would absolutely be great. I think that anyone that is

since the podcast will also understand that I'm very different on social media and you're going to

understand that it's like talking to a crowded room, I have to get people's attention, I have to be

able to be punchy with a point. I only get 60 seconds on Instagram to get someone's attention,

so often I come across as a bit of a dick, but hopefully after this one, you guys can make your
