Remember The Mission Podcast
This episode continues the preparation for 2026 by focusing on the missing piece most men never slow down enough to define. Their values. We explore why vision without values leads to frustration, misalignment and burnout, and why values are the operating rules that quietly shape every decision you make. I share how my own values have evolved over time, why building a business around your life rather than your life around your business changed everything for me, and what it really means to build success from home first. This is a grounded conversation about identity, boundaries and the...

This episode is the starting point for preparing for 2026 in the right way. Not with pressure, targets or false certainty, but with clarity. I share why clarity is the foundation for peace of mind, why a lack of it creates anxiety and restlessness, and why many high performing men struggle to feel settled even when life looks successful on the outside. I also speak openly about starting therapy, what that process has unlocked for me already, and why rewiring belief systems is not weakness but leadership. This conversation is about slowing down enough to ask better questions, stepping out of...

This episode is about protecting what actually matters. It is about ensuring that Christmas does not quietly become another period of distraction, half work and emotional absence. Too many men drift through the festive period with one eye on their phone, one eye on work and neither fully present with their family. This training is designed to stop that. I walk you through a simple but powerful system to help you switch off properly, create peace of mind around work and be fully present at home. It is not complicated. It is not fancy. It works because it is intentional and it respects...

In this episode I open up about something I have avoided for years. I share the real story behind why I decided to go to therapy, what finally pushed me through the door and why the first session hit me harder than I expected. For a long time I convinced myself that I could handle everything alone. I believed that because I coached men, mentored men and helped men navigate their own chaos, I should be able to handle mine. But life does not work that way. Pressure builds. Old beliefs surface. Unresolved pain follows you into adulthood until you finally stop running and face it. This...

This episode dives into one of the most important truths about growth and leadership. You do not need to be the most talented man in the room. You just need to be the one who keeps turning up. I use the journey through Brazilian jiu jitsu, from white belt to black belt, as a living example of what it really takes to build a mission, stay consistent and become the man you are supposed to be. From watching two friends receive their black belts, to earning my own first stripe on my purple belt, this is a reflection on hours on the mat, setbacks, injuries, time away, and still coming back. It is a...

There is a lot of noise online about men being weak, soft or unable to cope with the pressure of modern life. Most of that noise is criticism without guidance. This episode flips that on its head. It is not about blaming men. It is about showing you the path to becoming stronger in your body, your mind and your identity. Real resilience does not appear out of nowhere. It is trained. It is earned. It is built through structure, physical challenge and a disciplined relationship with your own thoughts. In this episode, I break down the core principles that create a stronger man, a more composed...

Remember The Mission Podcast
This episode brings us back to the one thing that determines the quality of your life, your leadership and your direction. It brings us back to the mission. Most men drift because they lose connection to the deeper reason for why they are doing any of this. The goals become noise. The routines feel mechanical. The work becomes something you manage rather than something you lead. This conversation is a reminder to return to the centre. It is a call to rebuild your connection to the mission that is meant to anchor your identity, sharpen your actions and guide the way you show up day after day....
info_outlineIn 2011, I made the hardest decision of my life.
I left the Royal Marines.
On paper, it looked simple come home, be with my kids, be the dad who’s present, not the one watching from a distance.
But the emotional reality was anything but simple.
I wasn’t just leaving a job.
I was leaving an identity.
The Marines had shaped everything my purpose, my mindset, my belonging.
And when that went, so did my sense of who I was.
That drive home from South Wales was four hours of silence, tears, and questions I couldn’t answer.
Was I walking away from everything I’d built?
Or finally stepping into who I was meant to become?
This episode is about those moments the ones that break you open, that strip away the old identity so you can meet the next version of yourself.
It’s about the loneliness, the fear, the doubt… and how they’re not signs of failure, but signals that you’re evolving.
Because the truth is, uncertainty builds capability.
Every next level of your life will demand a version of you that you haven’t met yet.
And sometimes, the hardest decisions aren’t wrong — they just demand courage before they deliver clarity.
If you’re at that crossroads right now, this episode will hit deep.
Listen in, reflect, and remember — your next level isn’t built in comfort. It’s built in courage.
