Today’s conversation is the return of our round table discussion with Chris Burns, owner of Savage Scholar Consulting and David Hatt, Founder of MTN.

It’s been over 7 months since these two were on the podcast and it’s been far too long, I know you’re all looking forward to this format returning.

This time round, we discuss our unpopular opinions on a range of topics including business, career, fitness, mindset, and even wider society.

There's some controversial opinions and strong back and forth, lots of laughs but plenty of valuable insight. You can expect to hear about materialism, unconditional support, DEI recruitment policies, passive income, steroids, Hyrox and much more.

Running order wise, the Solo Q&Q podcast is back next week for episode 280 instead of ending in a 9. I appreciate the volume of messages and support after each one of these and we will keep the cadence of solos every 10 episodes as a minimum.

Today’s conversation is with Dan Wallace.

Dan is former Olympic and World Champion swimmer.

Dan had an incredible decorated career, winning a Gold medal at The Commonwealth Games, a Silver medal at The Olympic Games and also winning Gold at the 2015 World Championships.

Expect to learn what it took for Dan to escape the comfort zone of the UK and move to the US to pursue his swimming career, the importance of getting around and pushing yourself against the very best, the self talk and preparation required to perform at your very peak in the highest pressure environments, what it was like going head to head with Ryan Lochte and Michael Phelps, as well as why Dan retired at the tender age of 24.

Beyond these points, I know you’re going to get a lot from Dan’s perspectives on achieving your potential, working in an area of passion, and keeping your love for an an activity after it becomes your income.

Oh and I think you’re going to leave hearing about Dan’s recent insane cold water and channel swims.

Today’s conversation is with Rory Lawson.

Rory is a Leadership Consultant, media host, and former Scotland Rugby Captain.

Rory won 31 Caps for his country, as well as playing for Edinburgh, Gloucester and Newcastle Falcons. However, in August 2013, Rory had to announce his retirement from professional Rugby, due to a chronic wrist injury

Expect to learn the role family and environment played alongside desire and passion in Rory pursuing a career in pro rugby, the value he got from the famous energy and linguistic skills of his grandfather Bill McLaren, and how to thrive in a competitive environment.

Rory shares insights and guidance on leadership qualities, how best to create culture within an organisation and team, dealing with a change in identity and lifestyle, setting an example as a father, and much more.

It was a pleasure to get over an hour with Rory in the studio last time I was in London and I know you’ll get a lot from this episode too.

Today’s conversation is with Sean Conway.

Sean is an internationally acclaimed ultra-endurance athlete, author, and a renowned motivational speaker.

Expect to learn how Sean came to understand the two different animals within himself, the value of leaning into activities and ventures which truly serve you, what it takes to push the mind and body to the very limit in being the first, furthest and fastest in a variety of physical challenges, and why it’s not too late to make a change in your life.

Sean really embodies this last lesson as he reshaped his life from self-professed ordinary man to a 43-year-old record-breaking endurance athlete. Many of you will have heard Sean speak before about his physical endeavours and we certainly cover those here including accidentally becoming the first person to swim the length of Britain. But we’ve aimed to go deeper with this conversation and I think you’re going to take a lot of away about mindset, clarity, and living in alignment.

Today’s conversation is a solo podcast, but not a Q&A.

It’s 23 Thoughts after turning 32 Years Old.

Turning around year older is a great time to pause and reflect. It’s something I’ve made a habit of doing over the last few years.

Taking time to stop, review, assess and then share the biggest lessons and reflections from the past 12 months.

It’s become tradition to produce a solo podcast. n 2022, my 30 thoughts at 30. Last year, my 13 thoughts at 31.

This year, you can expect to hear my reflections on family, fitness, podcasting, sales, politics, mindset and much more.
