  • E200: Episode 200 Q&A – My Book, Lord Sugar, Dealing With Family Illness, and My Tinder Bio

    On this week's episode of Life and Lessons, to mark episode 200, we do something a little bit different.


    I sat down with my close friend Adam Horton and invited him to switch roles and interview me. 


    Adam puts your questions to me, on topics including the consistency of this podcast, progress on my book, the behind-the-scenes stories of my time on The Apprentice, dealing with my dad's illness, my Tinder bio and more.


    This episode feels really special.


     Adam does an amazing job of steering this conversation and getting me to open up, and I feel so fortunate to have got to this huge milestone.


    Thank you for being here – here's to another 200!

  • E194: Oliver Burkeman: Working Harder Isn't Helping You! You'll Never Reach All Of Your Goals!

    Oliver Burkeman is a journalist and author of books including The Sunday Times Bestselling 'Four Thousand Weeks' and his latest release, 'Meditations For Mortals'.


    No matter how hard you try, you're never going to get everything done. There simply isn't enough time in our finite lives for us to tackle everything we'd like to. Our to-do lists are always going to win the battle. So what can we do about that?


    In this conversation, Oliver makes the case that surrendering to reality and being kinder to yourself is the true source of productivity, and offers practical ideas on how you can get more done and feel better in the process.
