James Johnson of Four stroke media is on the ignition podcast, and in this episode, I was surprised to hear how much of James' life revolves around empathy and his solid morals and ability to carry himself with wisdom far past his age; we talk about what it's like running a business and how his approach to culture and life is all about relationship building and exercising the lost art of communication, I hope you enjoy this episode.

In this spark, Alex Riley was on the ignition podcast speaking about how he found the Top Gear gig and the journey of self-belief and discovery he went on, waiting, being patient and putting effort into it. Its all good and well having a dream but how hard are you willing to work until you achieve that dream? I often think that success comes easy to most when behind the scenes. What you aren't seeing is the effort, determination and sacrifice that goes into that success.

Terry Putman, aka Illustrator Maker on the ignition podcast, has been building a reputation for the high-quality art of cars that mean a lot to people and himself. This conversation is one really that shares perhaps a different journey than we aren't used to hearing, it's not a road crafted and carefully planned but one were following your mind and seeing where the journey takes you using skills you have been practising and subconsciously stacking for years to lead up to a point where you can use them to turn a passion into purpose.

Matt Green on the ignition podcast. Matt is a man that became known to me when googling the phrase 'V12 Mini' while his work isn't with a V12, it sure packs a punch. Matt is a simple man with a passion for getting people stuck in and enjoying creating what you can with what you have. Have you ever wondered what swapping an engine into a stock metro is like or cutting the boot floor out of a car and the problems that come with that? No? Then you'll probably love this episode even more then. Listen to us talk about engineering and being a self-taught nut job!

If you're a fan of classics, electric or just innovation, there is something here for you! On the ignition podcast, Richard Morgan, aka Moggy, speaks to us about how he started Electric classic cars not on purpose but with passion. The project started as an electric conversion project by himself. By sharing it online, Richard has amassed interest and so much so that over time he has created what is now the world's biggest converters of classic cars to electric drive. This achievement hasn't come without its fair toll, and we take some time to reflect on what he's learnt and the lessons he has to share.

Craig Williams of Neutron Engines is on the ignition podcast. Craig is a brilliant engineer and mechanic who has been battling with his health and passion for cars. You have probably seen his work if you're into engines, honda or just cool car stuff. Under the alias Neutron Engines, Craig is developing a brand new V8 out of two K24s and has been developing and solving the problems that come with both. This conversation with Craig opened my eyes to the reality of his condition, and I have even more respect for a man who, despite his deteriorating health, has unshakable optimism and an uncanny attitude towards life, continuing on his journey to build his creation and making it seem so effortless while sharing his condition on his social media.

I have recently opened up to the idea that events and moments in our past that feel like open mental wounds may be easier to heal and cure than we think. Yes, the stigma of mental health and the conversations around the topic have a tremendous impact on communities worldwide, but it may be your fault that you are still struggling to deal with certain aspects. I implore you to look at the environment in which that event or moment in life happened, and instead of blaming or harbouring hate, think how you would have reacted if you were in the other person's shoes and had their problems. Would you of acted the same way? 

This episode speaks to the way we look at those moments, and John's way of looking at things is certainly one I would recommend you listen to.

Alex Goy, presenter, writer, editor, film-maker, and director. Alex doesn't just tick one box. He ticks them all. For a man used to spending most of his time in front of a camera, this was a great peek into what went on behind the camera. Life, as Alex has seen, has so much more to do with experiences and learning from those experiences than just experiencing and not doing anything with them. This spark is a testament to Alex's resolve, determination and plucky, Unflushable-ness.
