Jonathan Wolf is the co-founder and CEO of ZOE, a company using large-scale science to understand how food affects our health and the trillions of microbes living in our gut.

In this conversation, Jonathan explains the emerging science of the microbiome, why two people can eat the same food and have completely different responses, and why ultra-processed foods may be driving the modern health crisis.

He also argues that some major food companies have followed a playbook similar to the tobacco industry in shaping public understanding of nutrition - lying to us and the government for their own financial gain.

Before building ZOE with scientist Professor Tim Spector, Jonathan worked at the ad-tech company Criteo, helping to scale the business from a startup into a NASDAQ-listed company with more than $1 billion in revenue.

Interviews that might just change your life. And if not…? You’ll probably enjoy them anyway.

While we're all trying to be better versions of ourselves, this podcast asks: 'what's truly possible?'

Project Possible, hosted by me, Rich Leigh, explores this with incredible guests from the world of business, sport, entertainment and academia.

Between the second and third series, I made the decision to go full-time on this show.

I sold my successful 10 year old PR agency after my youngest brother Jordan took his own life. I realised that I needed to run towards passion, purpose and positive impact, and my dream of this being my career.

Five steps. A few feet.

That’s how close Shaq Brown came to being caught in Channel 4's Hunted.

He went on the run for 21 days with just £50 and no phone.

He had to survive as a fugitive while experts used every tool available to track him.

On Day 3, his partner - brother-in-law Warren - was captured.

For the next 19 days, he was alone.

In this conversation, he takes me inside what it really feels like to be hunted - the adrenaline, the paranoia, the split-second decisions, the sacrifice of comfort, and the instincts that kept him one step ahead.

We get into behind-the-scenes aspects of the show you might have always wanted to know, and Shaq tells me what it was like to be the solo winner of the biggest prize ever won on the show: £110,000!

Natasha 'Mo' Hunt and England captain Zoe Stratford OBE are World Cup winners, back-to-back-to-back league champions and co-captains of Gloucester-Hartpury, one of the most dominant teams in English rugby.

Zoe was named World Player of the Year in 2021, and Mo won the RPA Player of the Season Award in 2023.

But this conversation - my first with more than one guest - isn’t just about trophies.

From mopping floors weeks after lifting the World Cup, to balancing 9-5 jobs with elite performance, to walking out at a packed Twickenham in front of 80,000 people, this is a conversation about mindset, leadership and belief.

We talk about:

- The moment Zoe knew they had won the World Cup

- What it really felt like stepping off the bus at Twickenham

- The inaugural women's Lions tour

- The unseen graft behind women’s rugby

- How Gloucester-Hartpury built and maintain a winning culture

- The difference between winning once… and staying on top

- Leadership, difficult conversations and the power of care

- What still drives them now

This is a conversation about standards. About belief.

About building something bigger than yourself.

Mo and Zoe's relationship shines in the chat, and it was a privilege to sit and chat with two legends of the sport.

If you want to be a better leader, partner, parent, or just a better human being, this episode is for you.

In this episode of Project Possible, I’m joined by the Queen of Kindness (OK, I might have dubbed her that...!), Nahla Summers.

Nahla is a speaker, author, adventurer, and someone whose life was completely reshaped by grief.

After the sudden death of her partner, Paul, everything changed.

What followed wasn’t just recovery. It became a mission in spreading the power of kindness, and how it can help us in both our personal and professional lives.

Since then, she's:

– Climbed Kilimanjaro

– Walked 500 miles across the UK

– Cycled 3,000 miles across America

– And even set a Guinness World Record spelling “kindness” across England

But this conversation isn’t really about the miles.

It’s about what kindness actually means - because it’s not the same as being nice.

We talk about:

– The difference between kindness and people-pleasing

– Why real kindness sometimes involves difficult conversations

– How emotional intelligence changes teams and leadership

– Why human connection matters more than money or status

– How to build empathy, even if you didn’t grow up seeing it

– And the voice in your head - the one that can either drag you down or pull you forward

We also talk honestly about grief. About resilience. About how you can grow bigger than the thing that breaks you.

What if the biggest role for robots and AI isn’t replacing jobs, but replacing loneliness?

In this episode, I’m joined by Andrew Kiguel, CEO of Realbotix, the company building what might be the most realistic humanoid robots in the world.

Andrew explains why Realbotix isn’t focused on robots that walk, cook, or do backflips, but on something far more human: connection, companionship, and emotional wellbeing.

We explore:

- Why companionship may be the biggest market in AI

- Whether AI relationships can be “real”

- The ethics of human-like robots and emotional attachment

- Loneliness, mental health, and ageing populations

- Why ultra-realistic design matters more than raw intelligence

- The difference between assistive technology and replacement

- Where the line is between innovation, discomfort, and progress

Andrew also shares his journey from investment banking and Bitcoin mining to humanoid robotics, and why he believes we’re still years away from a true Westworld, but much closer than people think to robots becoming part of everyday life.

This is not a conversation about sci-fi fantasies.

It’s about what it really means to be human in an age of intelligent machines.

What if you could change your life while you’re asleep?

In this episode of Project Possible, I’m joined by Charlie Morley, one of the world’s leading experts in lucid dreaming.

Charlie works with CEOs, elite athletes, military veterans and trauma survivors, using a skill most of us already have… but forgot how to use.

Lucid dreaming is the ability to realise you’re dreaming while the dream is happening. And according to decades of scientific research, it’s a powerful tool.

We talk about:

- How lucid dreaming has been scientifically proven since the 1970s

- The groundbreaking studies showing dramatic reductions in PTSD in just one week

- Why trauma, nightmares and intrusive thoughts are the mind trying to protect us

- How athletes use lucid dreams to improve performance while asleep

- The surprising overlap between lucid dreaming, therapy and psychedelics

- Why lucid dreaming may be a gentler, safer alternative for mental health work

- And how anyone can learn it

We also get into creativity, fear, grief, intrusive thoughts, and the uncomfortable truth that most of us are using only a fraction of our mental capacity.

This is a conversation about what’s truly possible when you stop trying to escape the mind - and learn how to work with it.

Journalist, radio host and TV presenter Mary Mandefield joins me to unpack one of the most controversial developments in modern dating: the rise of online groups like 'Are We Dating The Same Guy?', and the growing tension between protection, exposure, and unintended harm.

Mary shares what she uncovered while making the Channel 4 documentary 'Red Flags: Are We Dating the Same Guy?', including stories from women who found validation and safety through these communities, and men whose lives were deeply affected after being posted online.

We talk about:

- Why so many women feel forced to protect each other online

- The emotional and psychological cost of being publicly accused

- Whether these groups are community support or digital vigilantism

- Why trust in dating apps and the police has broken down

- How empathy for women’s lived experiences can coexist with concern for innocent men

- And what dating might look like in a future shaped by AI, algorithms and isolation

This is not a conversation about taking sides.

It’s about sitting with discomfort, holding two truths at once, and asking difficult but necessary questions:

What do we do now?

And is it possible to date happily, healthily and safely in 2026?

Trevor Woodman is a Rugby World Cup winner. One of only 30 Englishmen to win and lift the Webb Ellis Cup.

And yet, if you walked into his house, you wouldn’t know it - he never framed a shirt, and doesn't have anything out that highlights his incredible achievements.

In this wide-ranging and deeply reflective conversation, Trevor opens up about growing up in Cornwall, breaking into professional rugby, feeling like an outsider at Gloucester at first, and the physical toll that ultimately ended his career.

We talk honestly about injuries, ambition, regret, and why chasing “the next thing” can quietly rob you of contentment. Trevor shares why he still describes himself as having “only 22 caps”, why he never did frame an England shirt, and what he learned from watching others chase what they didn’t have.

This is a conversation about reaching the pinnacle of elite sport, yes, but more than that it’s about identity, perspective, and learning when enough really is enough.

A thoughtful, grounded episode with one of rugby’s most quietly impressive figures.
