In today’s episode, I reflect on the invaluable lesson that every team member carries their own priorities, ambitions, and agendas. As an entrepreneur and team leader, I’ve learnt that success isn’t just about skills and culture fit—it’s also about aligning the aspirations of each individual with the direction of your business or team. Join me as I share recent experiences from my own businesses, exploring why it’s essential to uncover what truly motivates your people. I’ll dive into how bridging the gap between organisational goals and personal aspirations is the secret to fostering a sustainable, high-performing team. Whether you’re a business owner, manager, or aspiring leader, this episode will offer insights to help you build a team that’s motivated, aligned, and set up for long-term success.

In today’s episode, I dive into my early experiences with the brand new ChatGPT Tasks (Beta) feature, which is currently available to paid users of ChatGPT. As someone obsessed with streamlining workflows and maximising efficiency—especially through my Digital Operations Director product—I’ve been putting this update through its paces to see how it can transform both personal and team task management.

I share how I’m using ChatGPT Tasks as a personal assistant, the custom rules and prompts I’m experimenting with, and how I’m integrating AI into daily task scheduling, delegation, and follow-ups. I walk you through my “DPT” method (Delegate, Priority, Time) for inputting tasks, and discuss the potential and current limitations of the system.

If you’re interested in the future of AI-driven productivity, or curious how to get started integrating automation into your business processes, this episode will give you plenty of insight—and a few learnings from my hands-on testing.

What if one simple change could save you HOURS every week and bring you closer to achieving massive goals, like my own mission to run 40,075km by Day 4,292 and raise £1M for children’s causes? In today’s podcast, I reveal THE game-changing secret that most business owners overlook Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs). I know, it sounds boring, but stick with me…

From ultramarathon vlogging to building businesses, I’m sharing how SOPs free up your time, reduce stress, and allow you to hand over the reins—so you can focus on what truly matters. I’ll teach you my hands-on hack: just record your next task, run it through free AI, and watch as it turns into a repeatable, sharable workflow in minutes. Imagine a business (or life!) where you’re not stuck doing everything yourself.

Are you ready to reclaim your time, smash your huge goals, and help me get closer to saving more children’s lives? Tap in, listen now, and let's amplify this mission together.

Every day, I lace up my trainers for my Runpreneur ultra-marathon challenge, pushing towards Day 4,292 and the mammoth goal of 40,075km – all in a relentless mission to raise £1M for children's causes. But what really drives me (and others) to keep going, especially when the going gets tough?

In today’s episode, I’m peeling back the curtain on INNATE MOTIVATION – that mysterious inner spark that separates those who play it safe from those who push for greatness. Why are some people naturally so fired up, while others battle to find their drive, no matter the incentives? I’ll share honest storeys from the football pitch and my own journey, revealing hard truths and what truly makes some of us ‘want it more’.

I dive into one of the most debated questions for any entrepreneur or business owner: Should you prioritise values and character traits over exceptional skills and experience when growing your team? Drawing on my own journey and even a football analogy from my days as a Manchester United fan, I share why I believe hiring people who align with your core values, traits, and culture will always trump individual brilliance. I discuss how the right team spirit can overcome adversity and drive your business forward, even when skill gaps exist. In an ideal world, we’d all want the perfect mix of both, but when you’ve got to choose, here’s why I’ll always pick the right person over just the right skill set. Tune in for my thoughts, practical advice, and a little motivation for your own business journey!

Welcome back to my daily Runpreneur diary! On day 1,739, I’m giving you a candid update on my pulled hamstring, which I picked up during a ski trip. With two big marathons looming in April and May 2025, I’m facing the tough reality of balancing injury recovery with proper training. In this episode, I share my honest thoughts after seeing my physio, what the road to recovery looks like, whether I’ll be at Manchester and Edinburgh, and how I’m managing both the physical and mental side of running with an injury. Join me as I talk risk vs reward, adjusting expectations, and why I always put long-term health first, especially when running to save children’s lives around the world. If you’re struggling with your own setbacks right now, I hope my storey offers some useful insights.
