In Episode 11 of The Flame, host Bob Raynor reconnects with account director Toby Bovingdon, a veteran of omnichannel pharma and B2B marketing with nearly 30 years of experience. Recently laid off, Toby opens up about the challenges of today’s job search—from ghost postings and algorithm-driven rejections to navigating imposter syndrome.
Drawing on his background as a multi-degree black belt in karate, Toby shares how martial arts has shaped his resilience and mindset: to be a black belt at life. He also talks about building trust in client relationships, finding balance in creative industries, and his passion project co-hosting a vintage car show on YouTube.
If you’re a creative, marketer, or professional facing change, this candid conversation will inspire you to embrace the power of possibility.
