Seaspiracy hit Netflix on March 24th, and I don't think even the vegan community were prepared for the huge impact it was about to have. Trending across the globe and hitting #1 on Netflix in the UK, the power of Seaspiracy cannot be overstated. An outpouring of news articles, statements in response, and a 'debunking' of the facts presented soon followed. Today I'm discussing Seaspiracy, the impact that it's had and some of the criticisms it's received.

In today's episode:

- Responding to: "What about Indigenous fishers? Seaspiracy shouldn't be telling Indigenous communities not to fish."
- Responding to: "It’s not right to tell the consumer what to do, Seaspiracy is gaslighting you."
- Aquaculture Alliance & false statements.
- What has the pushback from the industry been like so far?
- Going in depth on the Earth Island Institute/Dolphin-Safe conversation.
- Facing speciesism: caring  about dolphins more than tuna.
- Explaining the great Pacific Garbage Patch statistic.
- Did Cowspiracy force environmental organisations to change their messaging, and will Seaspiracy do the same?

Fiona is the antidote to any 'get rich quick' or 'instagram' society. Her philosophy on life is simple; if there's a problem that needs fixing, fix it yourself. Don't talk about the problem, paper over the cracks, ask for help or look for shortcuts. Just get stuck in and learn from your experience. Expect problems and deal with them as they arise, the more you experience problems, the better equipped you'll be to deal with them in the future. 

In this conversation Fiona sheds light on:

• the 'doing' motivation versus the 'achieving' motivation 
• how she moved 'pain and suffering' from the 'Avoid' section to the 'Seek' section
• pain in training being like depositing money in the bank and withdrawing it on race day
• how purpose trumps talent every day of the week 
• how this 'talent-less' runner broke 4 endurance world records
• her adventures in 3 Marathon de Sable (often seen as the world's toughest foot race)           
• what it's like to experience the freedom of pain, discomfort and despair
• what it's like to live a 'no negotiation' life
• her model of "I'll do things at 100% or I'll do something different"
• ditching the Garmins and simply listening to your body
• her belief that congratulating herself will stunt motivation
• when it's appropriate to hide injuries from the doctor
• the importance of grandparents
• a life-time of veganism
• how putting others first, puts her first
• her super-talent of 'determination'
• why she prefers to tell people what she's done rather than what they should do
• hitting 100% as she crosses the line
• learning how to fix herself
