We Answer Our Guests Questions

What better way to round off the season than with the questions your favourite guests never knew they were asking each other? 🎙️✨For this end-of-season special, we thought we’d finish with something a little different, bringing together the anonymous questions our guests have been leaving behind throughout the season and finally revealing the answers.It’s packed with unexpected insights, honest reflections, and those brilliant “I didn’t see that coming” moments that make the best conversations.Think of it as the perfect season finale: a little wisdom, a few surprises, and a reminder of just how much gold has been shared this season.Don’t worry, we won’t be gone for long… Season 2 is coming very soon.If you found this episode insightful, why not come and meet Fuzz and Hev in person at one of our monthly The Rookie CEO events, or check out our upcoming workshops to support your business and self-development journey.Thank you to our Podcast Sponsor, IT Manager Services: https://it-ms.co.uk [https://it-ms.co.uk]

How To Nail Your 60 Seconds

Imposter Syndrome

Imposter syndrome… the uninvited business partner none of us asked for. 🎭✨We’ve all felt it at some point, that little voice questioning whether we’re good enough, experienced enough, or even meant to be in the room.In this episode, we’re joined again by Helen Banyard from The Good Stuff to unpack the reality of imposter syndrome and, more importantly, how to tackle it.Helen shares her honest views on why so many business owners experience it, where it really comes from, and how building genuine confidence in your business can help quiet that feeling of being an imposter for good.If you’ve ever questioned your worth despite the evidence saying otherwise, this episode will really hit home.If you found this episode useful, there are still a few tickets left for our upcoming The Rookie CEO workshop at www.therookieceo.co.uk.Thank you to our Podcast Sponsor, IT Manager Services: https://it-ms.co.uk

Adapting Your Business Around Your Lifestyle
