The Curiosity Quotient

For this latest episode, I got to speak with Tammy Watchorn and it was a wonderful tour across Arctic tundra's, Ice-walls, the National Health Service through to being a Change Ninja and sitting comfortably in a complex world.

A great opportunity to check in and perhaps challenge some of your prevailing beliefs? Enjoy this expansive episode.

Joe is one of those people with whom it is nearly impossible not to have a fascinating, curious, conversation. So it was wonderful to have him join me on the podcast. We covered so much ground and so many different topics - there will definitely be a follow up!

Enjoy....

In this episode of CQ I was delighted to welcome Jim Constable. Jim and I have known each other for many years and yet we still managed to explore areas we had never discussed before.

So if you have ever wondered if you have a book in you then this is a must listen to episode!! Enjoy...

In this episode I was joined by the inimitable Colin Curtis, founder of TBL.

We talked about finding calm and peace through Thai Boxing through to championing sustainability using the Blackpool Pub Test!

In this latest episode of the Curiosity Quotient I was fortunate to talk to Dave Lockie and his openness about the experiences that shaped him and his approach to life was humbling. It also contained so many lessons for all of us - about choices, about resilience and about paying it forward.

For episode 2 of the new series of the Curiosity Quotient it was a delight to welcome Stevie Fine.

As ever the conversation started and immediately went in directions unanticipated. Stevie and I were at the same university at the same time, in the same department and yet we never met then and yet 30 years later the conversation flowed like we had been talking for all those years.

And as an exploration of finding deeper meaning and value in our lives as we age this felt like a cathartic and needed slow conversation!

With the start of 2026 it felt like the right time to embark on season 2 of the Curiosity Quotient. I was delighted to go international for this one and invite the brilliant Calli Adamson Bakken, founder of Wiggle Work.

In this episode we got to chat about how Calli's journey has brought her to taking on the challenge of solving the corporate childcare conundrum in the USA. But the episode was much more than that with Calli sharing what makes her tick and her unique take on the world. A great listen in these troubling times!!

For my first episode of 2026 I had the pleasure of being joined by John Wilkinson, Chief Development Officer for Suez UK. And as ever the conversation went in directions I hadn't anticipated starting with discovering John has dad danced at the Blackpool Winter Gardens. It has to be worth listening to this episode simply to understand that reference 🤣. Thank you John for another fantastically Curious Conversation.

In this episode I was joined by Baden Frosen for a brilliant wide ranging episode that began with Baden’s personal fork inthe road moment and ended up with us talking about Psychosocial Safety.

It was just a conversation that, for me, had a bit of everything! Magical!

This was an episode that went in unexpected directions, thanks to my wonderfully open guest - Jeremy Hine - we explored a topic still little discussed in UK society. How to reconsider our experience of and engagement with the end of life of a loved one. Jeremy's insight and generosity in sharing his experiences and how they have shaped him is humbling - a truly emotional but worthwhile listen ❤️
