with Alec Pearson, Harrison Ward and Nick Sellers

In this episode, Alec and Nick are joined by Harrison Ward — known to many as Fell Foodie — whose journey from addiction and depression to hiking, outdoor cooking and public advocacy has inspired thousands.

We delve into the real story behind his transformation: the hidden struggles, the turning point that changed everything, and the steady, intentional steps that led him back to purpose and health. Harrison’s journey stands as a true inspiration for all of us.

We discuss:

• What change looks like from the inside not the polished version, but the slow, uncertain, deeply human one.
• Why rock bottom isn’t a single moment and how Harrison rebuilt himself one decision at a time.
• The role of honesty, support and accountability when you’re trying to break old patterns.
• How journaling, reflection and small wins shaped his recovery and fuelled the creation of Fell Foodie.
• The power of authenticity and what happens when you finally stop wearing a mask.
• What Harrison's journey teaches us about workplace stress, stagnation and the fear of changing direction.

If you’ve ever felt stuck, overwhelmed or unsure where to begin, Harrison’s story is a reminder that progress rarely arrives all at once, it grows from small steps taken consistently.
