Your marketing mentor & biggest cheerleader, here to share the real, messy, beautiful truth about what it takes to level up your marketing, productivity, and confidence. Whether you're drowning in B2B complexity, chasing B2C creativity, or staring at a to-do list that feels impossible, I'm spilling everything from my 12+ years that I wish I'd known. We're talking award-winning campaigns that started as complete disasters, the late-night brainstorms that changed everything, and the systems that actually move the needle (plus the epic fails that taught me the most). Because here's what I know for sure: success doesn't happen in isolation. It's about building marketing strategies that work, creating unshakeable confidence for the big scary moments, and using productivity systems that achieve your marketing goals. No matter where you are in your journey - from graduate to director - this podcast is for ambitious marketers ready to stop playing small and embrace the mess of figuring things out to have a successful and fulfilling marketing career.

150: Feeling Stuck With Your Marketing? Here's What to Do Next
5/5/2026
If your marketing role has started to feel a bit... comfortable, then this episode is your nudge.
Sometimes feeling stuck in your marketing career isn't about burnout or losing motivation, it's a sign you're ready for something more. And in this episode, I'm talking about the thing that's moved the needle for me more than almost anything else in twelve years as a general marketer: deliberately learning something new.
I'm sharing the real stories - from teaching myself Google Ads on a free course and a £250 budget, scaling it to £2,500 with real ROI behind it, to the HubSpot moment that made me realise I had a blindspot I couldn't ignore any longer and exactly how to start stretching yourself without overwhelming yourself.
Whether you want to learn a new channel, develop a new skill, or simply start thinking at a higher level in your current role, this episode will show you how to make it actually happen.
If you've been playing it safe in your marketing for a little longer than you want to, this episode is for you!

149: Lost Your Marketing Mojo? Here's Exactly How to Get It Back
4/28/2026
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.
Because here's what I've learned after twelve years in marketing: you haven't lost your ability. You've lost your connection to it. And those are two very different things.
We're covering why mojo dips happen (including the one reason nobody talks about), how to recognise the warning signs before they spiral, and the five practical ways to get your momentum back, without waiting to feel motivated first.
If you've been going through the motions lately, this episode is your reset.

148: From AI Tools to AI Marketing Systems: What I’m Building Next
4/21/2026
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.

147: Ai for Confidence: The Unexpected Use Case
4/14/2026
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.
This isn’t about replacing human support. It’s about having something steady when your marketing bestie isn’t available and you need to stop the spiral quickly.
If you’ve got a presentation, interview, launch day or big conversation coming up, then this episode is for you.

146: How to Lead Your Team Through AI (Even When You're Still Learning It Yourself)
4/7/2026
We're barely into Q2 and I'm already sharing this, because I know so many of you are in exactly this position right now.
Most leaders wait until the end of the year to share the wins. But with AI moving this fast, I wanted to bring you on the journey as I'm living it.
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.

145: Stop Starting From Scratch: Build Custom GPTs for Marketers
3/31/2026
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.

144: How to Prompt Like a Pro: Smarter AI Starts With You
3/24/2026
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.

143: You're Saving Time with AI…Now What? Redesigning Your Strategy for Real Results
3/17/2026
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.
This kicks off a new mini-series where I take you behind the scenes of how I’m rethinking AI in my marketing role, what I’m testing, and what I’m learning in real time.
If you’ve nailed the “AI saves me time” phase and you’re wondering what comes next, this episode is for you.

142: Using AI Without the Overwhelm Spiral: How I Actually Save Time as a Marketer
3/10/2026
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:
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.

141: How Stop Dreading Presenting to Senior Leadership and Start Crushing Them
3/3/2026
Presenting to your peers? You've got plenty of practice. But presenting to senior leadership? That's a whole different game and you don't get those small "micro moments" to build confidence first.
In this episode, I'm sharing the strategies I've learned over 12 years of presenting to boards, executives, and senior leadership, including my cringe-worthy first board presentation.
Whether you're pitching a campaign, presenting next year's strategy, or asking for budget approval, this episode will help you walk into that room with unshakeable confidence.
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.

140: How to Run Productive Marketing Meetings That Build Real Momentum
2/24/2026
I’ve been in thousands of marketing meetings, internal, external, agency-side, client-side. I’ve led campaign launches, budget approvals, influencer briefings… you name it.
Some of those meetings were magic… some were not!
And there was a point in my career when 5–6 hours of my day were just meetings. So I had two options: figure out how to make them productive or let them hijack my calendar and 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.
If meetings are draining your best hours, it’s time to take the lead and change how they run. You don’t need a new calendar tool. You need this.
Because in marketing, your meetings are your momentum and how you run them says everything about how you lead.

139 How to Lead (Not Just Survive) Campaign Launch Day
2/17/2026
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.
I'm breaking down my five-layer framework for showing up calm, clear, and ready to lead when the pressure is on. This isn't a tactical checklist, it's about how to prepare yourself, your team, and your energy so you can handle whatever launch day throws at you.
Expect real stories from chaotic launches, practical ways to manage anxiety in the moment, and the mindset shifts that turn panic into powerful leadership.
Because the thing that makes or breaks launch day? It's not the campaign. It's you.

138: Big Game Commercials 2026: Marketing Lessons You Can Steal

The Big Game commercials are basically the Olympics of marketing: massive budgets, insane pressure, and the whole internet judging your work in real time.
In this episode, we’re breaking down the best, worst, weirdest, and most genius commercials from this years biggest American Football game of the year (we can't say the real name!) and turning them into actually useful marketing takeaways you can apply to your campaigns, content, and brand strategy this week. You’ll hear what worked, what didn’t, and the patterns behind both from hook speed and brand clarity to why “vibes” and celebrity cameos don’t automatically equal a great concept.
