Episode 75 - With Ollie McFarlane

Actor and personal trainer, Ollie chats to me about how his career is going as well as some funny stories along the way.

Ollie was diagnosed with short segment Hirschsprung's Disease and has had 5 surgeries, but he was determined that this would not stop him from pursuing his acting dreams.

Later on we chat about scars and body confidence as Ollie has recently taken part in his own photoshoot, to promote his business.
