From Glasgow to Gran Canaria: Pride, Fitness & Life Unfiltered

In our very first episode of The Outlifting Lounge, we share the wild story of selling everything and driving from Glasgow to Gran Canaria, why we launched a queer fitness business, and what life is really like in Europe’s gay capital. We dive into Winter Pride, binge-worthy shows like Celebrity Traitors and Drag Race, and tackle big topics — from Manchester Pride’s collapse to fighting toxic masculinity. Plus, real talk on ADHD, mental health, and building confidence in the gym. Join us for laughs, insights, and unapologetic honesty!
