So Friday was a lot of fun!

I was invited to spend the morning with business advisors from around 5 Northeast funding bodies, supporting them with how to bring sustainability into their business clients’ mindsets from the off and the advantages it can bring.

It was a lively morning, with loads of interaction and discussion, just how I like it. 🙂

Huge thanks to Sue Parkinson and Natalie Larry from North East Enterprise Agency Limited (NEEAL) for their support, and of course to my brilliant ‘Top Team’ partner, Rita Callender from the North East Bic LTD for inviting me and sharing the morning with me.

Great to meet so many and see a few lovely familiar faces too!

Excellent start to the new year networking circuit with the phenomenal Issy (& Chris 😉) talking all about why podcasting is ‘the thing’ for 2026 at Enterprise House.

Good to see so many and catch up!

(Psssst… if you want even more podcast tricks and tips, I’m joining the Howell Media crew on the 6th Feb at the British Esports Federation HQ in Sunderland as a panel guest to talk podcast shizzle, highs and lows. Get yourself there!)

(Pssst pssst… couldn’t resist sharing the glory that was Chris Howell ‘s shoes… … 😉😂 )

Monday vibes…

The sun is shining,
Excited to be back at the desk,

Thank goodness for coffee,
Because, despite 2 weeks off, without it I’d be Zombiesque…

Happy Monday ☺️

Another week, another enlightening podcast guest for The Responsible Marketing Podcast.

And following on from the furiously energetic Josh Troche last week, this time I have my recording with the Queen of AI and Apparel, Julia K. Dietmar, another international guest.

It was fascinating talking to Julia about her career, how she started OpenWardrobe, and how Julia and her team are looking to make huge differences in how we shop, how we feel and how we look.

Plus, she has a very generous gift for all listeners and watchers, but you'll have to listen and watch to find out what it is... 😃

It’s a hop, skip and jump across the pond today for the first of Season 4 of The Responsible Marketing Podcast, with the brilliant podcaster and podcast producer Josh Troche, from Pedal Stomper Productions, based just outside Cleveland, US.

There is so much energy in this episode, it’s unreal, and I’m still reeling from hosting my first international guest. ☺️

Thanks for being such an entertaining guest, Josh, and for sharing your experiences and tips for why and how we should be getting intimate with our listeners 😉
