  • Nick Fox: Centric Creative - Working with Richard Hammond was a massive step forward

    On the Ignition podcast, I spoke to MD Nick Fox, who started Centric Creative with his co-founder Tom Keega. Nick went from a skeleton crew to employing 10 people in his company. In this episode, we talk about his journey and what it's been like running a company and dealing with anxiety. But having that company be aligned with your passion is the reason it works.

  • Spark #35: Becca Taylor - How I achieve the goals I set in life

    Becca Taylor Becca is known more for her journalism and car reviews than her racing, and her channel Driving Bex has well over 7K subscribers. It was amazing to learn more about how she got into cars at a young age and that the content she is creating now is a direct result of her years working in content creation. If you are looking for some great car content and stuff that is amazing to watch, I would recommend Becca's content.

  • TJ Lamb: Magnacars - I was always going to make videos about cars

    TJ Lamb, content creator and new friend. TJ reached out to me on LinkedIn because he saw my profile and thought it would be interesting, but what I saw was an opportunity to tell the story of a kid who went viral. We discussed the pressure it creates for a guy who left his home country to live in America and then found that his love for cars was more brutal to express. And what do car people do? We find each other, and that's precisely what TJ did. He found new friends and through a part of creating massive Instagram accounts under different names. He finally put a face to his fortune; now, it is his full-time job. 


    This is the podcast for you for a masterclass in creating viral content.

  • Spark #33: Harvey and Herry - Engineering a way to speak about Mental Health

    Harvey Leach and Herry McGibbon are on the ignition podcast. Harvey and Herry are both engineers, but in their own right. Harvey comes from a management and logistic background, whereas Herry has his aerodynamics routes working for F1 teams.


    We don't often take the time to look at how far we've come and that the people in our lives often have similar experiences, so when it comes to solving problems, we don't usually ask for help. But in this spark, we are discussing what it can be like, especially in an industry full of men. That conversation happens way less than it should. By now, we all know, including me, men are terrible when sharing their struggles mentally. So in an excellent refreshing, open way, listen to Herry and Harvey talk about what it's been like for them, the highs and lows. They aren't related by blood, but they are connected by passion, a passion that, if you're listening to this podcast, you most definetly have.

  • Oliver James Webb: Racing Driver - If I don't win Le Mans, I have lost something.

    Oliver James Webb is on the ignition podcast. Oliver has raced in Le Mans championships, test driven and developed with BAC and has had the privilege of feeling what an F1 car can do. But we spoke about none of that. Instead, I asked him how he got to where he is today and his journey, not just with his fantastic career but mental health. It's important to me to show these amazing people that do inspiring things as regular people. To destigmatise fame and show that with hard work and taking opportunities, you can achieve your goals as long as you persevere.

  • Steve Waddingham: Aston Martin - I worked until I created my own job

    Would you spend 30 years studying for one job? Today I'm speaking to Steve Waddingham, Aston martin historian and leading expert on the brand's heritage. Steve's career path isn't like most, and as he puts it, he has spent 30 years studying to do his job, and if you ask me, that makes him a rarity in today's world. Who else has the dedication and passion for one brand and knows that his work preserves something we, as British car enthusiasts, love? Steve is happy to help in any way. As he puts it, we all need inspiration, and if one person listens to him and it resonates, then we are happy.


    We speak about:


    Finding what you good at

    Picking a job in the industry

    learning how to carve your job

    Following your passion

    Learning more about your career and how to get the most out of it.
