The Edge
Welcome to the CWC Edge Podcast, where story meets strategy. Hosted by Chris — A former senior soldier in the British Army’s Specialist Operations Regiment, Royal Military Police and coach to business leaders and grassroots squads — this show is dedicated everyone but especially to middle managers, to senior leadership teams and board members who won’t settle for “just managing” and want to step into owning outcomes.
Each episode draws from operational leadership, coaching on and off the pitch, and continuous improvement principles to deliver practical playbooks you can apply today.
Expect real stories, hard questions, clear calls to action—and just enough hunger for what comes next.
Episode cadence: every week (Tuesdays currently).

Combat Calm to Family Chaos — Leading Yourself Before You Lead Others
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
I’ve stayed calm under fire in Afghanistan — directing others while rounds cracked overhead.
But last week, I walked into my house after work… and snapped at my kids.
Not physical.
Just shouting.
And it shook me.
In this honest episode of The Edge Podcast, I explore:
- Why combat can feel calm but home can feel chaotic
- The difference between structured and emotional chaos
- Emotional control, presence, and discipline
- Why leadership is hardest where emotion is highest
- Practical tools I’m using to show up better at home
This episode isn’t about perfection.
It’s about awareness, ownership, and growth.
