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

It’s a special episode reflecting on the biggest lessons and insights from making over £1.7M ex VAT of sales during the last financial year between April 2024 and April 2025.

I’ve worked full time in sales now for over a decade after graduating from University in June 2014. Along the way I’ve worked in B2B and B2C sales as well as building my personal brand, social media channels, and this wonderful podcast.

This episode has 12 of the lessons I’ve learnt on how to successfully make sales and many of these will be immediately actionable for you to implement whether you run your own business, work in sales role in an organisation, or just know sales matters to your success and you want to work on it.

I have many other big lessons, insights and templates I’ve saved and written into my presentations and trainings I’ve delivered to individuals and sales teams over the last 18 months as an adhoc sales consultant.

However I am now going to offer this far more broadly and am building out the best video content for my sales masterclass. If you want to learn more on how we can work together to improve your sales skills and results then DM me ’SALES MASTERCLASS’ on LinkedIn or Instagram.

If you want more lessons like this Episode 257 recaps my 13 lessons from £1.1M ex VAT last year.

Today’s conversation is the return of round table guest Chris Burns, owner of Savage Scholar Consulting.

This time round, we discuss our Red Flags & Green Flags in Brain, Body & Business.

These are things we avoid and stay away and the things we gravitate towards and value.

Expect to learn about why you need to let people do their jobs, stop oversharing, strategically use supplements, link your habits and routines to the idealised version of yourself and much more.

Today’s conversation is with George TheTinMen.

George is a content creator, pro-men’s advocate and researcher.

His work is rooted in data, cultural analysis, and a no-nonsense approach to highlighting the growing challenges facing young men in modern society.

We unpack the key statistics, overlooked issues, and cultural narratives that are shaping, and often undermining, men today. From education to mental health, the realities of modern masculinity are explored without the usual sugar-coating.

Expect to learn:

• What drove George to “grasp the nettle” and speak up for men and boys
• The shocking reversal in educational outcomes since Title IX, with young men falling behind for decades
• How the number of young men not in education, employment, or training has soared—up 40% post-pandemic
• Why George believes the political left has abandoned men and boys
• The truth about “toxic masculinity” and how male instincts are misunderstood
• The reality behind the gender pay gap that rarely gets discussed
• Startling statistics on male suicide and why current interventions aren’t working
• Why “talking” about mental health isn’t enough for men—the boiling pot analogy
• The disturbing rise in sextortion cases targeting young men
• The crisis of male role models, with 1 in 4 state schools in England having no male teachers
• Why shoulder-to-shoulder time matters more for men than traditional sit-down talks
• Reflections on mature masculinity and the concept of being of service to others
• The growing issue of male body dysmorphia in the age of social media
• Practical steps to support men’s mental health and challenge harmful stereotypes

If you care about better outcomes for young men and understanding the cultural forces at play, this conversation is a must-listen.
