Fueling Your Body for Better Training

Guest: Darryl Corley - That Nutrition Guy

UK Nutrition Ambassador for HYROX

Are you training hard, showing up consistently — but still feeling flat, under-fuelled, or not recovering the way you expect?

In this episode of the 1% Happier & Healthier podcast, Ann & Sal are joined by Darryl, the UK HYROX Nutrition Ambassador, to unpack one of the most common (and misunderstood) issues in training and wellbeing: fear of carbs.

Darryl shares how discovering nutrition became his passion, starting with curiosity, experimentation, and sharing what he was learning on Instagram — before being approached to become the HYROX Nutrition Ambassador. Today, he travels the UK, speaking at HYROX-affiliated gyms and helping people understand how food can support training, performance, and recovery.

This conversation strips away food fear and brings the focus back to fuel — what your body actually needs to perform well, recover properly, and feel stronger.

• Why so many people are scared of carbohydrates — and where that fear comes from
• How under-fuelling can quietly affect energy, performance, and recovery
• Why carbs are essential fuel for training
• The importance of protein for muscle repair and recovery
• How to fuel for performance without overcomplicating nutrition
• Simple, effective food choices to support training, including:
• oats
• quinoa
• bulgur wheat
• sweet potato
• How to build meals that are nourishing, satisfying, and sustainable

Fuel isn’t the enemy —

fear is.

When you fuel your body properly, everything works better.

• Train regularly but feel low on energy
• Struggle with food fear or carb avoidance
• Want to improve performance without extremes
• Are curious about HYROX or functional training
• Believe food should support your life, not control it

Guest: Jordan Barker Porter

Pro Boxer | Gym Owner | Channel 4 SAS: Who Dares Wins Contestant

What if one honest realisation could change the entire direction of your life?

In this inspiring episode of the 1% Happier & Healthier podcast, Ann & Sal sit down with Jordan Barker Porter, a professional boxer, gym owner, and former contestant on Channel 4’s SAS: Who Dares Wins — to talk about transformation, identity, and finding purpose in unexpected places.

Seven years ago, Jordan realised her relationship with alcohol was no longer serving her life. A friend suggested something simple: go to a local boxing gym. That one decision became the turning point. Jordan fell in love with boxing, discovered discipline and self-belief, and ultimately found a sense of purpose that changed everything.

Today, Jordan uses boxing not just as a sport, but as a tool for growth — mentally, physically, and emotionally — helping others realise what’s possible when they take responsibility for their choices and back themselves.

This is a conversation about courage, honesty, and the power of taking one small step that leads to a completely new life.

• The moment Jordan realised something had to change
• How boxing became the anchor that helped her rebuild her life
• The role of discipline in overcoming unhealthy habits
• What SAS: Who Dares Wins taught her
• Identity shifts — from who you were to who you choose to become
• Why purpose is often found through discomfort
• How small daily actions create lasting transformation

You don’t need a perfect plan —

you need one honest decision, followed by another.

• Are questioning habits that no longer serve you
• Want proof that it’s never too late to change direction
• Are curious about how sport can transform mindset and identity
• Believe small steps can lead to big life shifts

In this deeply inspiring episode of the 1% Happier and Healthier Podcast, we’re joined by Sara, The Mindset Model who shares her powerful journey of rebuilding confidence after years of self-doubt and a life-changing accident.

Sara opens up about growing up without confidence at school, how a serious accident became a turning point in her life, and the gentle yet courageous steps she took to reclaim her sense of self. Rather than chasing overnight change, Sara shows us how small, intentional shifts in mindset can completely transform how we see ourselves and what we believe is possible.

Through volunteering in her community, spending time in nature, reading mindset-shifting books, and challenging deeply rooted limiting beliefs, Sara began to rewrite her internal narrative — moving from “I’ll never be able to” to the far more empowering “What if I could?”

This episode is a reminder that confidence isn’t something you’re born with — it’s something you build, one thought, one choice, and one small step at a time.

• How early experiences can shape (but don’t define) our confidence
• Why small steps are more powerful than big leaps when rebuilding self-belief
• How to recognise and challenge limiting beliefs
• The role of volunteering and community in healing and growth
• Why getting out into nature can shift perspective and mindset
• How reading and learning can help you change your internal dialogue
• The power of changing your language from “I can’t” to “What if I could?”

Confidence isn’t about being fearless — it’s about being willing to question the stories you’ve been telling yourself and gently choosing a new one.

• You’ve ever struggled with confidence or self-belief
• You feel stuck in an “I can’t” mindset
• You’re recovering from a setback, accident, or major life change
• You’re curious about how mindset shifts can improve your happiness and health
• You believe change happens 1% at a time
