I sat down with my good pal Paul Mort straight after an event he'd invited me down to speak at, hit record, and had no plan whatsoever.
What came out wasn't really a business podcast. It's about pace, obsession, escapism, ADHD, and what it's like being a dad to kids who are wired the same way you are.
What we get into:
Why the day you plant the seed isn't the day you pick the flower — and how much pressure that takes off you in the quiet stretches
Minimum effective dose, and why the boring version of consistency is harder than the dramatic version
Freezing Tuesday night in Stoke vs Wembley on a Saturday — who you actually are when it's not fun
Why everyone asks for thirty books in January and reads four
Escapism, and why we both need somewhere the phone doesn't come
ADHD as an interest surplus rather than an attention deficit
Whether a label gives you relief or gives you an excuse
Parenting a kid with the same wiring as you — and getting the push/pull balance wrong
The runway: realising you've got a handful of years left where they still want to come with you
Cringe mountain, and why being embarrassing is the job description
Fair warning it's sweary and it goes everywhere. That's rather the point.
