330) SOLO - Going ALL In: The Truth, Lessons & The Future

Today, the guest is me and it’s time for a solo episode. 


In this solo special, I open up about the leap I’ve taken into going all in on sales coaching and podcasting. It didn’t happen the way I planned and that’s the point. When the security you thought you had disappears overnight, what matters most is how you respond.


Expect to learn:

  • Why I decided to make sales coaching my full-time focus.
  • The emotional rollercoaster of redundancy and how this time was different to 2019
  • Key business lessons from watching an industry collapse from the inside.
  • Why “profit beats revenue” and the trap of vanity projects.
  • How to prepare yourself mentally, physically, and financially for curveballs.
  • What “identity capital” means and how to build it.
  • Why I believe sales coaching is the most optimal entrepreneurial vehicle for me.
  • How mentors, clients, and community helped me navigate the transition.
  • How I selected who I chose to tell, when and how
  • The long-term vision for CamBro Conversations and my coaching business.


This episode takes you from my start in the furniture sales industry in 2021, through the curve ball of redundancy in 2025, to the decision to go all in.


I share candid reflections on fear, excitement, and freedom, as well as practical strategies that kept me grounded: protecting sleep, fuelling my body, journaling, and sticking with small daily habits that compound over time.


You’ll hear the business lessons too from the dangers of chasing vanity revenue, to the importance of saying no, to why resilience and strategy matter more than ever when the unexpected happens.


The closing message is simple: sometimes you don’t get to choose the timing, but you can always choose how you respond. You are in the business of you — and the more you take ownership, the more opportunities open up.


For more indepth on my 2019 redundancy experience, check out episode 15.


Thanks for all your support, please do share this episode with a friend who would enjoy it too.

Today’s conversation is with Jorge Perez. 


Jorge is an author, publicist, and the mind behind The Shut the Fuck Up Method*.

If you’ve ever struggled with oversharing, drama, or simply wanting to live with more focus and intention, this episode will give you the tools and mindset shifts to do just that.

319) 12 Lessons from £1.7M in Sales

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.

317) George TheTinMen - Exposing The Crisis of Men & Boys

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.
