Hosted by LGBTQ+ icon, Sink the Pink founder and King of the UK's club scene Glyn Fussell, this is a podcast for anyone a bit different. Glyn will interview inspirational guests who have harnessed the power of being different and turned it into the reason they've achieved the success they have. They'll be bearing it all, talking about their hardships and struggles, but focussing on the triumphs and successes to prove that it's by being ourselves and accepting our individuality that we flourish. Working his entire life to inspire and be a leader within the LGBTQ+ community, Glyn Fussell has a deep respect for people who work to uplift others, and that's why he believes every one of his guests deserves to be called a hero. Glyn will be bringing these extraordinary people down to a human level for an intimate chat, working out how they've managed to fight through the struggles. He tracks their journey from finding themselves, to accepting themselves, to embracing themselves and finally becoming a hero and making their differences a superpower. When you're different, finding a hero to look up to can be hard. Now these role models are in one place for an inspiring series that celebrates the unique! Hosted on Acast.
