In today’s episode, I share a deeply personal and unplanned lesson I taught my children—one that had a powerful impact on us all. Following a long journey home from the Edinburgh marathon, a simple encounter with a homeless man at a service station became the platform for an important discussion about kindness, compassion, and humility. I explain why I chose to give what I could, the reaction it sparked, and how this small gesture spoke volumes to my children—far beyond any words I might have offered. This episode is a reminder that our actions, even the smallest ones, can leave lasting impressions on those around us, especially our kids. Join me as I reflect on how leading by example can truly make all the difference.

If you’re a parent or just someone keen to make the world a bit better, this episode is for you.
