In this episode of The Property Doctor Podcast, I sit down with Dr Jo Watkins for a candid conversation about medicine, leadership, risk, and life beyond the consulting room.

Dr Jo shares her journey through the medical profession — the pressures, the pivots, and the personal evolution that comes with building a career in a system that demands resilience. We explore identity, responsibility, entrepreneurship, and what happens when high achievers decide to redefine success on their own terms.

This isn’t a surface-level conversation. We talk about:

• The realities of working as a doctor in today’s NHS
• Burnout, boundaries, and professional responsibility
• Transitioning skills from medicine into business and leadership
• Risk tolerance and decision-making under pressure
• The psychology of high performers
• Building a life that aligns with your values

If you’re a clinician, entrepreneur, property investor, or someone navigating change at a high level, this episode will resonate.

Medicine shapes the way you think. Business tests the way you act. This conversation sits at the intersection of both.

Where to begin!?
As one of the most legitimate people in the property industry, Mark Shaw has helped hundreds of people do more with their resources than almost anyone else.
Unlike most dream-sellers in the property industry, Mark actually transacts in volume and frequently. His approach to investing is refreshing too, as he is more interested in time than money, and protects his time at all costs.
Using counterintuitive ways of working alongside a sound ethical background, Mark stands out amongst the crowd as someone to listen to and learn from.
Do enjoy!

How do you build a global brand in an industry that is resistant to change? In this episode, we sit down with Katharine Graves, the founder of KG Hypnobirthing, to discuss the intersection of mindset, movement-building, and business.

Katharine didn't just start a company; she pioneered a method that has empowered thousands of parents and created a "train-the-trainer" model that has spawned hundreds of independent businesses.

In this episode we delve into the difficulties of growing a business through the covid pandemic, pivoting the business model for the post-covid customer.

We also discuss how Katharine has gone viral many times over with her refreshingly simple social media approach.

Not to be missed!

A favorite of the podcast is back!

Long standing listeners will remember Victoria from Season 1. Today we are catching up with her to see how her fantastic apart-hotel project has gone and what the future looks like.

Victoria was keen to grill me on various things I've been up to so this chat ended up being almost like a coaching call discussing everything from business acquisition through to mindset and the seasonality of the serviced accommodation world.

Plenty in here for everyone to take something from.

I was recently asked to be a guest on a podcast to discuss entrepreneurship and how I got started.

The discussion was not scripted and went in various directions which explored lots of areas of my life.

I hope you enjoy it.
