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:

1. What change looks like from the inside not the polished version, but the slow, uncertain, deeply human one.
2. Why rock bottom isn’t a single moment and how Harrison rebuilt himself one decision at a time.
3. The role of honesty, support and accountability when you’re trying to break old patterns.
4. How journaling, reflection and small wins shaped his recovery and fuelled the creation of Fell Foodie.
5. The power of authenticity and what happens when you finally stop wearing a mask.
6. 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.
