Marketing Nuggets
Your marketing mentor & biggest cheerleader, here to share the real, messy, beautiful truth about what it takes to level up your marketing, productivity, and confidence. Whether you're drowning in B2B complexity, chasing B2C creativity, or staring at a to-do list that feels impossible, I'm spilling everything from my 12+ years that I wish I'd known.
We're talking award-winning campaigns that started as complete disasters, the late-night brainstorms that changed everything, and the systems that actually move the needle (plus the epic fails that taught me the most). Because here's what I know for sure: success doesn't happen in isolation. It's about building marketing strategies that work, creating unshakeable confidence for the big scary moments, and using productivity systems that achieve your marketing goals.
No matter where you are in your journey - from graduate to director - this podcast is for ambitious marketers ready to stop playing small and embrace the mess of figuring things out to have a successful and fulfilling marketing career.
Come for the stories. Stay for the strategies that actually work.

128: When Being 'Too Productive' Backfires as a Marketer
I'm really good at being productive, it's honestly one of my strongest professional skills after 12 years of practice. So why did I completely ignore everything I know and have one of the most chaotic Mondays in recent memory?
In this episode, I share the story of how I skipped all my usual productivity guardrails, tried to power through everything at once, and ended up running the worst team meeting of my career.
But here's what I really learned: productivity isn't just about managing your tasks, it's about managing your energy. And that Monday was a masterclass in what happens when you ignore both.
This one's for the marketing professionals who know exactly what they should do to stay productive and organised... but sometimes do the complete opposite anyway.
We'll dive into why energy management might be even more important than time management, and how understanding your natural rhythms can make or break your most productive intentions.
