Description
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.
Come for the stories. Stay for the strategies that actually work.

Sharing your ideas in a room full of smart, opinionated marketers can feel terrifying. You put so much pressure on yourself to have the “right” idea that you end up saying nothing at all. Sound familiar? I’ve got you, because I’ve been there more times than I can count. And now, as a senior marketer, I really wish I’d known these things earlier… especially for all those moments where I put out an idea that landed flat on its face. In this episode, I’m walking you through 10 practical, confide...
If you're still in the same role you were in during 2025… then the goal isn't to beat anyone else. It’s to beat your 2025 self. To think better, work smarter and show up with more confidence.

The kind that helps us break out of the everyday habits and autopilot patterns we slipped into last year. If you’re ready to step it up so future-you can kick p...
January hits different when you’ve spent two glorious weeks in a dressing gown, ignoring alarms, watching NFL, deep-diving into Taylor Swift, and having picky bits for every meal time. So if you're sitting at your desk this week feeling foggy, slow, and like your routines forgot how to routine… same. In this episode, I’m sharing the 5 tiny, zero-overwhelm habits I’m using to rebuild my energy, my momentum, and my productivity after Christmas. These aren't aesthetic routines or “new year, new ...
No, you haven't tuned into the wrong podcast! A special episode this week - I got interviewed on a brand new podcast hosted by Chris McPherson 'Classroom to Corner Office' and so I wanted to add it here for you to listen to. I open up on my career, from being a fresh graduate, to the internships I under took and the most important skills I learnt. I also talk through my experience in various marketing roles, lessons learned along the way and my number one piece of advise for anyo...

This episode is a little different, you're getting the full version of a keynote I recently delivered on one of the boldest marketing strategies out there: stunt marketing. I’m sharing exactly how I went from playing it safe to leading campaigns that included actual parachutes and tanks and more importantly, why those stunts weren’t just loud… they were strategic. If you've ever felt like your marketing plan is missing that spark, or you're wondering how to stand out without relying on huge b...

I'm really good at being productive, it's honestly one of my strongest professional skills after 12 years of practice. So why did I completely ignore everything I know and have one of the most chaotic Mondays in recent memory? In this episode, I share the story of how I skipped all my usual productivity guardrails, tried to power through everything at once, and ended up running the worst team meeting of my career. But here's what I really learned: productivity isn't just about managing ...
Presenting internally (to your peers) is one of the hardest skills to get right, because you’re speaking to people who do what you do. And neither of my marketing degrees prepared me for that. BUT if you can nail the small presenting moments - those quick updates, team stand-ups, or project check-ins, then you are halfway there. They build the confidence you need for the big ones. Like presenting your new campaign idea to 20+ marketers at the quarterly off site. In this episode, I’m sharing t...

You know that feeling when you sit down to write your marketing strategy… and 45 minutes later you’ve reorganised your inbox, made another coffee, and started doubting if you even are a marketer? Yep. That was me. Yesterday. In this episode, I’m bringing you right into the chaos, the Q4 overwhelm, the pressure to make your 2026 strategy “bigger and better,” and that sneaky voice saying you’re falling behind.

In this episode, I'm walking you through my exact 5:15AM routine that gets me to my desk feeling energised, focused, and ready to tackle whatever chaos marketing throws at me.

This is the foundation episode for everything I'll be covering this season on confidence. Confidence used to come naturally to me, until it didn't. Tennis humbled me. Marketing demanded I show up whether I felt "ready" or not. This episode isn't about confidence tips. It's about the simple but powerful reframe that makes confidence achievable for every marketer. (Thank you Mel Robbins!) In marketing, we're constantly putting our ideas and strategies out there to be judged, and so, confi...
This isn't just another productivity episode - it's the one that sets the tone for everything I'll be sharing moving forward.

You'll hear why that Grace Beverley quote hit me like a truck, the breaking point moment that made me realise I needed systems or I'd drown in tasks, and my three core principles that turned into my secret sauce as a marketing leader. This is the why behind the s...
After over a year away from the mic, I wasn’t sure I’d return. It’s ALOT to be a one man band pod, plan a wedding, a full time senior marketer, hang out with my family (and of course my dog!) work out every day and achieve balance and not burn out! This episode is your behind-the-scenes of why I stepped away, what’s fueling my return, and how this show is evolving to serve you even better. It’s still me. Still raw, honest, and strategy-packed. But this time around, I’m zeroing in on the two t...

In this episode, I dive deep into a comprehensive checklist that covers every aspect of event planning - from the initial planning stages all the way through to post-event tasks. One thing I've learnt after 10 years, is that there are WAY more steps than you think to creating successful events.

One my secret weapons to being a Head of Marketing is having a core understanding of all (well most!) marketing channels. And with Digital Marketing taking up the large majority of so many marketing plans nowadays AND with my tipping it to be one of the most important areas to focus on to level up in 2024, I thought I should dedicate a couple of episodes to it. In this part two on Digital Marketing, I'm talking all things affiliate marketing (and the differences to influencer marketing) and ...
