The Reason Your Best Marketing Days Feel Different, And How to Have More of Them
In this episode I'm unpacking the one philosophy shift that sits underneath every productivity system, morning routine and to-do list hack I've ever shared on this podcast. The thing that, when you finally get it, changes not just how you work, but how you feel at the end of every single day.
The Six Questions Senior Marketers Ask - That Most Marketers Never Think To
In this episode, I'm sharing exactly what those questions are. Questions I've collected over twelve years of watching the best strategic thinkers in the rooms I've been in. The questions that don't just make you look senior. They make you think senior.
How Ambitious Marketers Break Out of Execution Mode and Start Leading
In this episode, I'm unpacking what the Identity Lag is, why it hits the most capable marketers hardest, and the one question that starts to close it. No jargon. Just the reframe that I wish someone had handed me five years earlier.

You're Already in the Right Rooms. Are You Owning Them?
In this episode, I'm talking about the physical and strategic language of authority, the signals that tell a room who you are before content has even started.
And the thing I really want you to hear: you don't develop presence the day after you get promoted. You build it now. In the meetings you're already in.
The Three Presence Myths That Are Keeping You Invisible
In this episode, I'm dismantling the three biggest myths about presence. The ones that keep brilliant, experienced marketers invisible in exactly the rooms where they need to be seen.
When It All Goes Wrong: The Marketer's Guide to Bouncing Back
In this episode I'm sharing the four-step recovery protocol I use when something knocks me flat in my marketing career and why the way you bounce back from hard moments matters just as much as how you show up for the good ones.
Feeling Stuck With Your Marketing? Here's What to Do Next
Sometimes feeling stuck in your marketing career isn't about burnout or losing motivation, it's a sign you're ready for something more.

Imposter Syndrome: Why I Hate the Phrase (And What To Do Instead)
I've heard the phrase "imposter syndrome" probably a thousand times in my career. And every time, I hate it. Not because the feeling isn't real, but because I think the label is making us more stuck, not less.
In this episode I'm getting into why I hate the phrase, what's actually going on when that self-doubt shows up, and the one question swap that changes how you respond to it. Plus the specific ways it shows up in marketing careers and what to actually do when it hits.
If you've ever second-guessed whether you deserve the role you're in, or felt like everyone else has it figured out except you, this episode is for you.
The Three Conversations Every Marketing Manager Gets Wrong (And How to Get Them Right)
There are three conversations that happen in every marketing manager's month. And most of us have been quietly getting all three of them wrong, not because we're bad at our jobs, but because nobody ever taught us what the high-stakes version of each one actually looks like.
In this episode I'm walking through the three moments where marketing managers shrink most consistently and giving you a specific, practical framework for each one.
This isn't about confidence tips. It's about knowing exactly what to say and how to say it, so the next time one of these moments arrives you're not winging it.
Lost Your Marketing Mojo? Here's Exactly How to Get It Back
Every marketer loses their mojo at some point. The ideas stop flowing, the confidence dips, and suddenly you're staring at your to-do list wondering what happened to you.
In this episode, I'm sharing the January that nearly made me question my entire career — and the lunchtime walk that completely changed how I think about those flat, uninspired periods.
From AI Tools to AI Marketing Systems: What I’m Building Next
This is the final episode in my AI mini-series and it feels like a turning point.
Over the last few episodes I've taken you through how I actually use AI day to day, the mindset shift from speed to outcomes, how to prompt properly, how to build Custom GPTs, how to lead a team through it, and even how I used AI for a confidence boost before a keynote.
But this episode is different. This one is about what comes next.
Because I've hit a new ceiling and I want to share honestly where I am, what I'm trying to solve, and what I'm building towards over the next six weeks.
If you've been on this journey with me through the series, this is the episode that takes it a level further. This is a great place to start thinking bigger about what AI can actually do for your marketing.
Ai for Confidence: The Unexpected Use Case
Two hours before a keynote to 80+ marketers, I was sitting in a freezing Starbucks trying not to spiral. What if I rush? What if I blank? Is 25 minutes even enough time? (Especially when the last time I spoke, I fully blanked for ten seconds and still think about it.)
I couldn’t call anyone. I didn’t want to stand outside in the freezing cold rehearsing to myself. So I did something unexpected.
With not many options, on a whim, I opened ChatGPT and asked for a pep talk. In this episode, I walk you through exactly what I did. And the result? One of the best keynotes I’ve delivered.
How to Lead Your Team Through AI (Even When You're Still Learning It Yourself)
This episode isn't about how to use AI. It's about how to lead a team through learning it, when you're figuring it out yourself at the same time.
I'm sharing the exact things I've put in place this year when it comes to being a marketing leader figuring it out as we go.
If you manage a marketing team and you want to create an environment where AI actually gets used, not just talked about, this episode is especially for you.
Stop Starting From Scratch: How To Build Custom GPTs for Marketers
If you’re still opening a new ChatGPT window every time you need something, re-explaining your company, your audience, your tone and your strategy from scratch… we need to talk.
Custom GPTs completely changed how I use AI in my marketing. Not because they made me faster (although they did), but because they raised the standard of my results.
In this episode, I’m breaking down what Custom GPTs actually are, when you should use them (and when you absolutely shouldn’t), and the exact step-by-step process I use to build them properly. I’m also sharing real marketing examples so you can see how this works beyond theory.
If you want AI to improve your marketing quality this episode will change how you think about using it.
How to Prompt Like a Pro: Smarter AI Starts With You
Most marketers don’t have an AI problem. They have a prompting problem.
If you’ve ever typed something into ChatGPT, hit enter, and felt underwhelmed by what came back this episode is for you.
In this one, I’m breaking down why prompting is the real skill behind great AI outputs, how to brief it properly, and the small shifts that completely change the quality of what you get back.
Because smarter AI doesn’t start with better tech, It starts with you.
Using AI Without the Overwhelm Spiral: How I Actually Save Time as a Marketer
A lot has changed in how we use AI at work, so it was time to update this one.
In this refreshed 2026 episode, I’m sharing how I actually use AI in my marketing role to save time, without falling into the overwhelm spiral that so many of us hit when tools evolve faster than our workflows.
This isn’t about shiny new features or doing everything in ChatGPT. It’s about:
Putting guardrails around AI so it supports your thinking instead of hijacking it
Using AI as a decision helper, not a decision maker
Getting to draft zero faster, simplifying stakeholder work, and reclaiming time in your week
I’m also sharing the moment I realised AI wasn’t making me more productive and what I changed to fix it.
If it’s been a while since you last rethought how you use AI at work, consider this your reset.
You're Saving Time with AI…Now What? Redesigning Your Strategy for Real Results
Last week, we talked about using AI to save time in your marketing work.
This week, we’re going a level deeper.
Because here’s the realisation I had to face: even though AI was helping me move faster, I was still working in exactly the same way. Same processes. Same pressure. Just… sped up.
And speed isn’t the outcome.
In this episode, I’m sharing the mindset shift that helped me move from task-level productivity to rethinking how marketing actually works and tying that work back to the outcomes that matter.
How Stop Dreading Presenting to Senior Leadership and Start Crushing Them
I'm pulling back the curtain on what actually works in the boardroom, from the preparation most people skip, to the critical mistakes that tank even great ideas, to the one thing you must do before you leave that room. This isn't theory; it's what I've learned from 12 years of these high-stakes moments.
How to Run Productive Marketing Meetings That Build Real Momentum
This episode is the no-fluff breakdown of how I lead meetings now. From setup to follow-through, I’m sharing the systems and mindset shifts that helped me turn meetings into one of the most effective parts of my week without burning out my team or myself.
How to Lead (Not Just Survive) Campaign Launch Day
Campaign launch day is one of the most high-pressure moments in a marketer's calendar. Whether it's Black Friday, a global product drop, or a brand campaign you've been building for months, this is when everything you've prepared either flies or falls apart.
And here's what no one tells you: your energy on that day matters just as much as the project plan.
