Adam Broomfield Strawn on Pursuing your Passions, Emotional Breakdowns and Doing Things for The Right Reasons.

This episode is brought to you by Mindful Productivity, teaching busy professionals how to be happier, healthier, and more productive.

Adam is owner of Absolution Coaching and is a stand-up comic, winning Toastmasters International "Humorous speech champion" for UK & Ireland, as well as performing three Edinburgh Fringe shows.

Adam is also an actor, NLP Practitioner and has two children. If that wasn’t enough, Adam is a model, runner and a vegan. Adam jokingly describes himself (to me) as a poor man’s Russell Brand (hilarious, with tattoos but slightly poorer and less famous).

I really enjoyed chatting with Adam as he is so open and vulnerable about his past, plus he is a hoot to boot!
