S13 Ep6: STRICTLY’S CARLOS GU SHARES HOW MOVING TO LONDON FELT LIKE ‘HOME’ AND HOW HE FINDS THE BALANCE BETWEEN FEMNINITY AND MASCULINITY IN HIS DANCING

This week on the @Monday_mile_series I’m joined by a man best known for his creative flair and artistry on the dance floor. A positive light and a very good friend of mine… it’s gkx_carlos This week we take a stroll and discuss his move to the UK after getting his dream job working on Strictly Come Dancing.  We take a deep dive into growing up in China as a gay man and how he feels he’s able to express himself more freely since moving to the UK.  We also chat about his brand-new tour ‘Reborn’ with @amy_dowden, and what we can expect from their exciting new show. I’ll certainly be going along to cheer for them both in the front row! Listen now on your favourite podcast platforms or watch on YouTube

Former Team GB double winter Olympian, and no broadcaster and author Aimee Fuller is on a mission to find the secrets for Monday motivation from some of the most successful sports men and women of our time and other well-known celebrities which will drop every week. 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 will drop on a Monday morning and plays out in real time. 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. Dropping every Monday as a bitesize 23-35 minute piece of content and weekly dose of motivation - right when you need it - sharing some of Britain's greatest athletes’ secrets on self-motivation, candid thoughts on what they struggle with and a sideways look at some of their more unusual morning habits.
