Chris Stark - "I kinda went into panic mode"

Today’s guest is Chris Stark, he’s known for his former days at Radio 1 as a part of the Scott Mill’s show, and now sits in the hot seat over at Global as Capital FM’s Breakfast show co-presenter and exec producer. He also hosts That Peter Crouch Podcast, that casually had a certain Royal on the mic, Prince William. 

We dig into that famous Mila Kunis interview,  that acted as a career catapult. You remember that right? In his words he went into "full panic mode, going violently off message". We chat his pathway into Radio 1, parenthood, and juggling the two. Chris opens up about his career,  the selflessness that is required to be a good number two, working alongside the likes of Scott Mills, and now Roman Kemp.

The podcast also took an unexpected turn, when it comes to the discussion of finding balance in life and Chris opened up about the current state of imbalance and struggle he is experiencing. A very relatable discussion, about the routine life gives you, if you let it.  

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.
