48 Hours That Put Everything Into Perspective

Why Changing My Environment Changed My Mindset

A month ago I joined a new gym in Bath. At the time, I thought I was just changing where I trained. What I didn’t expect was how much it would impact my mindset, ambition and energy outside of fitness too. In this episode I talk about: * Feeling stuck and going through the motions * Why environment matters more than we realise * The people and conversations that can raise your standards * Meeting ambitious people from different walks of life * Wanting more from life and business without losing sight of family and values * Why I don’t want to look back with “what ifs” A reflection on growth, aspiration, business, fitness and the importance of the environments we choose to put ourselves in.

The Dangerous Side of Comparison

Last night I made the mistake of doom scrolling before bed… and within 10 minutes I was questioning whether I’m doing enough. After watching someone I admire still grinding at 10pm after a full day of coaching, business and training, it forced me to reflect on ambition, comparison, productivity and the reality of trying to balance business, fitness and family life. In this episode I talk about: * The comparison trap of social media * The pressure of trying to “do more” * My 3 pillars: health, business and family * Why trade-offs matter more than people admit * Building a life around your own values rather than somebody else’s

The Danger of Being the Person Everyone Relies On

Being reliable is usually seen as a strength. You step in. You solve problems. You protect people. You keep things moving. But what happens when your reliability starts to stop other people from growing? In this episode, I reflect on a small parenting moment with my daughter forgetting her school blazer, and how it opened up a bigger thought around responsibility, rescue and leadership. I talk about the difference between helping and making life too easy, why children need chances to experience consequences, and how the same lesson applies in business. After years of being the person who fills gaps, fixes problems and carries the weight, I’m learning that the next stage of leadership is not about doing more. It is about building people, systems and businesses that do not rely on me catching everything. Because if you keep catching everything, people stop learning how to hold things themselves.

What the F*ck Am I Doing? Starting a Business With My Kids

Last night I found myself thinking: “What the f*ck am I doing?” We’re launching a small shop today—cakes, fudge, jewellery—run by my daughters. But in the middle of burnt fudge, a messy kitchen, and a late night… I started questioning everything. Do I really have time for this? Am I just creating more work for myself? Is this actually going to teach them anything? And then something shifted. This episode is a real-time reflection on: * parenting and pressure * creating meaningful time with your kids * teaching responsibility and the value of money * and why the things that feel hardest often matter most There’s no polished ending—just the reality of trying to get it right. We launch at 3:30pm today… so we’ll see how it goes.

Bubs & Bug: Why I’m Getting My Daughters to Start a Shop

This week, I’ve decided to try something different with my daughters. Not pocket money. Not rewards. A shop. “Bubs & Bug” is something they’ll run themselves — baking, making, selling — and learning what money, effort, and responsibility actually mean along the way. Because the truth is: Kids today don’t go without much… and that comes with a cost. In this episode, I talk about: * Why I’ve struggled to get the balance right with money and parenting * The reality of co-parenting, generosity from family, and modern expectations * The lessons I want my girls to learn about effort, value, and resilience * And why business, for me, has always been about freedom and flexibility This isn’t about making money. It’s about understanding it. And maybe… planting a seed for something bigger. Let’s see how it goes.
