Today’s conversation is with Scott McClure. Scott is an Ecommerce entreprenuer and the Director of Ecademy and Creatr Led. Expect to understand the sales skills and experiences Scott built in his formative career, the self development sources he tapped into to shift his mindset, the early brands Scott built from scratch online, and the subsequent challenges and lessons he experienced with addiction and some turbulent drama with his former business partner. Scott has recovered from these set backs to rebuild his businesses bigger and better and we get into what it takes to be a success in e-commerce, the rise of creator led brands, and even some million dollar brand ideas you could action too. Today’s podcast is sponsored by Kal Recovery. If you are anything like me, or do hard sessions in the gym or in your sport then proper recovery is a vital part of continuing to progress your fitness & skill. Cold water therapy has been proven time and time again not only in studies, but by advocates worldwide, to rapidly help fight inflammation in the body, reduce fatigue and help reduce injuries.  Not only that, but the mental benefits from taking a 3-5 minute cold plunge a few times a week are life changing.  Cold exposure can actually increase your dopamine by up to 250%, which lasts for hours afterwards. I’m also sleeping a lot better since using taking the ice baths. I’ve been using my KAL Pod regularly for a month now, and if I could explain it in real terms, it’s like hitting the reset button and canceling out all the noise that’s going on in your head. Plus, I’m never bothered with any niggles or aches that may carry into the days after a tough session.  You can grab your KAL Pod from KAL Recovery and get 10% off by using the code CAMBRO and get free delivery in the UK.  https://kalrecovery.com/products/kal-pod Connect with Scott: Insta - https://www.instagram.com/scott.mcclure/ Connect with Col: Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/col.cambro/⁠ Email List - ⁠https://mailchi.mp/548e38ba5942/colincambro⁠ Support me: ⁠www.buymeacoffee.com/ColCamBro

Today’s conversation is the return of Richard Dickson to the podcast. Richard appeared on episode 140 of the show in August 2022 and 80 episodes later, a return was overdue. That episode remains the most played ever on CamBro conversations and it reached the top 10 that month in the UK self development and health charts on Apple Podcasts. During that episode, we covered the True story of the then 25 year old millionaire. This time around, expect to hear about conspiracy theories about Richard’s background and finances, how leaning into being a villain can help you excel, faith in god, family dynamics and gender roles, being capable of being dangerous while seeking peace, plans to own St Mirren FC, and why it’s your duty to be a success for you and your loved ones.  Today’s podcast is supported and sponsored by Clean Foods Meal Prep. The removal of over 90 minutes of cooking and meal prep each week has been a big win for me, while the meals are tastier and more varied ingredients than I would manage cooking them myself.

Today’s conversation is with David McIntosh. David is a Management Consultant listed in the Business Insider 35 under 35, the Founder of the UK Social Mobility Network at KPMG, and host of the Development by David podcast. I’ve gotten to know David really well over the last 3 years and it is only in the last few weeks I’ve learned the true extent of David’s childhood and start point in life. I was exposed to the actualised, focused and accomplished version you get to hear today, but life was not always like that and the likelihood of David’s positive trajectory was not certain at all. In today’s episode, you can expect to learn about David’s life and mindset growing up in Prestwick, his struggles fitting in at school and in life with a weight of blame and shame around his circumstances. But if you’ve been exposed to David’s content in the last few years, you’ll know he is a huge proponent of personal responsibility and agency. With that in mind you’ll hear the levers and tools that empowered David to transform traumas into sources of strength. He offering advice to those battling shame, fear, and confusion rooted in their upbringing, nand you’ll enjoy insights we discuss together on how to build confidence, and competence. Before we get into this episode, I want to say thank you to David for his raw insights on the loss of his mother, his experience of stand up comedy, the full circle moments of interviewing Sir Tom Hunter, speaking at his old secondary school, and much more. David has been recognised as the UK’s number 1 apprentice by BPP for his role at KPMG, the Business Insider’s “35 under 35” - #20, Accountancy Age’s “35 under 35” - #20, and even ranked in the Top 20 Entrepreneurial Young Scots in 2023.

Discussions include stress management, debunking longevity myths, importance of sleep, training, and diet. The podcast also covers aspects of business, mindset, and passion.

Today’s conversation is a solo podcast, but not a Q&A. It’s 13 Thoughts after turning 31 Years Old. A popular style of post from my Instagram and a longer form email I shared with my list over the years, I decided to turn it into a podcast last year with 30 Thoughts for episode 156. This time round, I’ve flipped the numbers to 13 but I want to really explain each of the 13 thoughts. You can expect to hear about optimisation versus perfection, becoming more interesting, time management, and even discomfort and change. If you enjoyed this, make sure you are following or subscribed and leave a 5 star rating on Apple podcasts or Spotify.

Today’s conversation is with Dr Meg Jay. Meg is a clinical psychologist and author of the Defining Decade: Why Your Twenties Matter and How to Make the Most of Them Now as well as a number of other books focusing on navigating and thriving during your youth. A recent New York Times profile called Dr. Jay “the patron saint of striving youth” and her TED talk “Why 30 Is Not the New 20” is among the most watched to date. Dr. Jay earned a doctorate in clinical psychology, and in gender studies, from the University of California, Berkeley. She is on faculty at the University of Virginia and maintains a private practice in Charlottesville. You can expect to learn why your 20s aren’t the most stress free decade of your life, what critical events take place during your 20s and what these can mean for your future, and why 30 is not the new 20 despite what some media tell you. You will also hear about the importance of building identity capital, what role weak ties can play in shaping your life, how to be more introspective and know what you truly want. Meg brings so much wisdom to the conversation and you’re going to hear in my voice just how much I enjoyed hosting this episode. I don’t say this lightly when I say this conversation has some of the most valuable insights and learnings I’ve heard in the last three and a bit years of podcasting. We know the cool stat that together we’ve built the show to the fun headline of a top 1% podcast globally, well this is a top 1% podcast of insights for you to enjoy.

Today’s conversation is with Steven Arena, better known as Really Tan Man. Expect to learn what drove Steven to explore the food system and his mission to share some challenging information about the modern food system. I ask about Steven’s experience with exploring alternative options, diets and sources and his battle to raise awareness about the issues that our modern food system is having on people’s health. I first became aware of the issues caused by seed oils when I looked into a common oil - soybean oil and its link to inflammatory bowel disease and leaky gut. There is a lot we can do individually about our food, where it comes from, and how it is made. One of my favourite parts of this conversation I know you will resonate with is how Steven has been able to build a business and leave a highly paid job to pursue something he cares deeply about and how he identified a potential business and product he could scale in this space. We got incredible feedback on our episode with Dr James McIlroy on the gut and microbiome, and I intend on doing more episodes which have even more specific diet and food recommendations and actions you can take to improve your gut health in the near future. Today’s podcast is not brought to by one of my usual sponsors. It is by my upcoming Podcast Masterclass Course. Most podcasts fail. 80% stop before hitting episode 8 then hundreds of thousands drop off before episode 24. The odds of a podcast succeeding are low. But that doesn’t have to be the case. The benefits and opportunities I’ve created through podcasting have been incredible whether that’s for business, personal brand, and network - building a podcast opens so many doors. Over the last 3 years, I’ve learnt so much in building a top 1% global podcast. I’ve distilled all this experience into a simple to follow 9 module video course including equipment and software guides, templates for managing and securing the best guests in your niche, and even my secrets to researching and preparing for interviews. It’s due to release in late October 2023 but to register your interest early you can DM me the word ‘masterclass’ on Instagram or LinkedIn to get access to the early bird discounted offer of £50 off.
