Success

Endurance cyclist Lee Craigie jumps on her bike, Jimmy, in search of a few lessons in how to live a richer, happier and healthier life.

Endurance cyclist Lee Craigie jumps on her bike, Jimmy, and goes in search of a few lessons in how to live a richer more rewarding, happier and healthier life. Something, ultimately many of us are constantly striving to do. Along the way Lee challenges herself to question her own life and values as she discovers how other people's life experiences have shaped their particular philosophy or way of living.

Who gets to decide what defines success?

Lee explores what it means to be successful when you gauge it against your own parameters and when others are judging it for you. Former Scotland manager Craig Brown describes how he balanced the expectations of success of the nation, the team and himself on and off the football pitch.

But what does success feel like when you get there? Isla Rowntree set up a successful bike manufacturing business. To many people a thriving business that's courted by private equity might be considered successful. How hard is it to balance all that when your moral compass kicks in and you decide to walk away from further success because it feels like the right thing to do.

With all this in mind Lee asks herself if actually there is such a thing as success and failure after all.
