Addiction, Awareness and Against The Odds with Aaron Abbott

The Waffle Shop

Joining me for a waffle this week is the brilliant Aaron Abbott

Aaron is the Founder of Against The Odds, and joins me for a waffle about his journey so far

Throughout the episode, we have a waffle about Aaron's journey with gambling addiction, his mental health battles and how he is now turning his pain into purpose by educating the next generation about the dangers of gambling

Aaron very openly and honestly talks about the inspiration behind the platform and how losing over a quarter of a million pounds led him to make one of the biggest changes in his life so far. Throughout the episode, we get to hear some shocking facts that surround the gambling industry and how Against The Odds is inspiring the next generation to be more aware of the dangers when it comes to gambling

We also have a waffle about his brilliant new podcast, Against The Podds, which he co-hosts with past guest Conor Martin. The podcast is a brilliant example of just how powerful sharing your story can be. In it's first week, it hit the charts in the UK and is only getting bigger! The podcast deep dives into the dangers of gambling and the ripple effect it can have not only on your mental and physical health but the people around you.
