Sometimes we need to be slapped around by life to truly learn. In this one, Tommy reflects on his week of dealing with a persistent and, at times, debilitating headache, his trip to A&E to seek a diagnosis, collapsing at home, and the reality check of health scares. He touches on the dangers of pushing too hard when you just shouldn't, why he feels motivated to do so (both positively and negatively), and how even a minor scare on a wednesday afternoon can have you reflecting deeply on the important things.
