What we Build Next | Carolyn Hobdey | S3 EP 8</itunes:title><description><![CDATA[<p>Carolyn Hobdey is a multi-published author and leadership/culture change specialist known for naming the conversations workplaces avoid. She’s the voice behind The Midlife Mistress and author of All The Twats I Met Along The Way, De-Twat Your Life! and Redefining Selfish. </p><p>Episode Summary </p><p>Male allyship is usually framed as men supporting women. Carolyn flips the lens: what happens when men feel they can’t speak honestly at work, online, even at home, without being judged, mocked, or written off?

In this conversation, Tatiana Ashborn shares how growing up scared of sex – and deeply under-served by traditional sex education – led her to start a sex and relationships podcast at just 17. What began as a lockdown project in her bedroom has grown into Dirty Talk, a show and social movement that now reaches millions, tackling everything from first-time stories and porn to shame, consent and long-term love.</p><p>Tatiana talks candidly about failing at school until she found the BRIT School, the power of creative education, and how her family backed her when she chose the most taboo topic of all.

In this conversation, Tatiana Ashborn shares how growing up scared of sex – and deeply under-served by traditional sex education – led her to start a sex and relationships podcast at just 17. What began as a lockdown project in her bedroom has grown into Dirty Talk, a show and social movement that now reaches millions, tackling everything from first-time stories and porn to shame, consent and long-term love.</p><p>Tatiana talks candidly about failing at school until she found the BRIT School, the power of creative education, and how her family backed her when she chose the most taboo topic of all.

He’s worked with brands like UBS, IKEA and Oracle, and is recognised for making allyship practical, well-being strategic and inclusion something people <em>feel</em>, not just hear.</p><p><strong>Episode Summary</strong></p><p>Lee Chambers’ story bends every stereotype. He grew up in Bolton, the first in his extended family to attend university, dropped out during a mental health wobble, returned to graduate, and saw his graduate banking role collapse in the 2008 crisis — prompting him to build a fast-growing e-commerce company from a spare room. He later lost the ability to walk and learned to walk again, which reset his valuaes and ultimately led him to step away from the CEO seat to become a stay-at-home dad — a leadership masterclass in disguise.

He’s worked with brands like UBS, IKEA and Oracle, and is recognised for making allyship practical, well-being strategic and inclusion something people <em>feel</em>, not just hear.</p><p><strong>Episode Summary</strong></p><p>Lee Chambers’ story bends every stereotype. He grew up in Bolton, the first in his extended family to attend university, dropped out during a mental health wobble, returned to graduate, and saw his graduate banking role collapse in the 2008 crisis — prompting him to build a fast-growing e-commerce company from a spare room. He later lost the ability to walk and learned to walk again, which reset his valuaes and ultimately led him to step away from the CEO seat to become a stay-at-home dad — a leadership masterclass in disguise. Listening to women at a local toddler group opened his eyes to everyday inequities at work and sparked his mission: help men build the skills of allyship and redesign systems so everyone belongs and performs. He now equips leaders and teams to move beyond slogans to evidence-based, everyday behaviours that compound into culture change.</p><p><strong>What You’ll Learn</strong></p><ul><li>What “allyship” really means: working effectively across difference, not grand gestures.</li><li>Why inclusion fails without foundations — and how to build them.</li><li>Tactics any leader can use to make meetings fairer (and more productive).</li><li>How resilience, neurodiversity and identity can shape courageous leadership.</li><li>The surprising leadership lessons of being a stay-at-home parent.</li><li>Why men often hesitate to engage — and what helps them step in.</li><li>How allyship improves retention, applications and survey scores.</li><li>A first step any SME owner can take this week.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Practical Plays You Can Use Tomorrow</strong></p><ul><li>Add a <strong>no-interruptions rule</strong> in meetings and nominate a rotating chair to enforce it.</li><li>Ask three colleagues: “<strong>What’s it really like working here?</strong>” Listen, capture themes, act on one item.</li><li>Audit one process (promotions, project allocation, networking invites) for hidden barriers; change one rule.</li><li>Bring frontline voices (depots, logistics, ops) into inclusion design — not just head office.</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Memorable Lines</strong></p><ul><li>“Discomfort is where the growth is.”</li><li>“Inclusion isn’t a plug-in; it’s foundations tied to real outcomes.”</li><li>“Allyship isn’t a stunt; it’s micro-moments that add up.”</li><li>“Your comfort zone is a padded jail cell.”</li></ul><br/><p><strong>Guest Picks</strong></p><ul><li><strong>Book:</strong> <a href="https://amzn.to/3J15VVjhttps://amzn.to/3J15VVjhttps://amzn.to/3J15VVjhttps://amzn.to/3J15VVjhttps://amzn.to/3J15VVj" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>Invisible Women</em> — Caroline Criado Perez</a>. </li><li><strong>Music:</strong> <a href="https://amzn.to/47pgXf1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">“Harvest for the World” — The Isley Brothers.</a> </li><li><strong>Tool/Framework:</strong> <a href="https://amzn.to/43C0gvE" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">The Boston Matrix (applied with modern nuance).</a> </li></ul><br/><p><strong>Connect with Lee Chambers</strong></p><ul><li>LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/leechambers-1/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Lee Chambers</strong></a></li><li>Website: <a href="https://leechambers.org/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Lee Chambers</a></li><li>Book: <a href="https://amzn.to/47E8dCZ" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>Momentum</strong></a> — leadership and change lessons for uncertain times. </li></ul><br/><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;_____________________________________________</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; &nbsp;</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; ABOUT LEADING BOLDLY</p><p>PODCAST:</p><p>·&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Ready to take your</p><p>business to the next level?

A mountaineer, adventurer, and resilience speaker, Nigel survived a near-fatal frostbite incident on Denali in 1999, losing fingers, toes, and parts of his face. Instead of retreating, he rebuilt—returning to mountaineering, inspiring audiences worldwide, and now revisiting the mountain 25 years later in his new documentary, Frostbitten.</p><p>Nigel shares powerful insights on decision-making under pressure, adapting to extreme change, and the importance of embracing nature, purpose, and resilience in both life and business.</p><p>What You’ll Learn in This Episode:</p><p>✅ The critical decisions that led to his survival on Denali</p><p>✅ How frostbite changed his perspective on life, leadership, and success</p><p>✅ Why flexibility, patience, and meticulous planning are essential in mountains and business</p><p>✅ How he adapted and continued mountaineering despite his injuries</p><p>✅ The importance of purpose beyond work and valuing experiences over material success</p><p>✅ The emotional journey of returning to Alaska 25 years later to meet his rescuers</p><p><br></p><p>Topics Covered:</p><p>1.

Join us as Neil shares his remarkable journey from a thriving career in TV production, where he helmed top UK shows like <em>The Apprentice</em> and <em>Grand Designs</em>, to tackling one of society's most pressing issues: male mental health. With a deep commitment to making mental health support more accessible and relatable for men, Neil brings a fresh, unapologetically male-focused approach to mental fitness, crafted with tools like meditation, breathwork, and self-hypnosis.</p><p>Neil opens up about his experiences growing up with ADHD, his early entrepreneurial spirit selling mixtapes, and how these influences, combined with a passion for meditation, fuelled his transition from media mogul to mental health advocate. We delve into the founding of <em>Mettle</em> in 2022, a venture inspired by Neil’s personal journey and developed alongside notable co-founder Bear Grylls and mental health experts like Paul McKenna and Dr Alex George. Despite launching in a challenging funding climate, <em>Mettle</em> has already raised £2.5 million in pre-seed funding, attracting around 50,000 users within just eight months.</p><p>Highlights of the episode include:</p><ul><li><strong>Neil’s Transition from TV to Tech</strong></li><li>From producing award-winning TV shows to creating a men’s mental health app, Neil reflects on his career shift and the insights he’s carried over from media to mental health tech.</li><li><strong>The Development and Unique Approach of Mettle</strong></li><li>We explore how <em>Mettle</em> is crafted to address specific needs for men through brief, daily content – from calming breathwork and meditation “boosts” to one-minute motivational “mind fuel” clips – designed to fit seamlessly into a man’s day.</li><li><strong>Strategies for Business Success</strong></li><li>Neil discusses the importance of building a strong, diverse team and the value of "finding the others" – making key connections in the industry. His approach to balancing social impact with commercial growth has been vital in <em>Mettle</em>’s early success and user growth.</li><li><strong>Tackling the Male Mental Health Crisis</strong></li><li>With suicide as a leading cause of death for men under 50 in the UK, <em>Mettle</em> is part of a broader mission to bring mental fitness alongside physical fitness into everyday life. Neil shares his vision for how normalising mental health practices among men can lead to positive societal changes.</li></ul><br/><p>Tune in to hear Neil’s insights on entrepreneurship, leadership, and the transformative power of mental fitness tailored for men. <em>Mettle</em> is not only a business; it’s a mission-driven effort to reshape the conversation around men’s mental health.</p><p>#Leadership #MentalFitness #bemettle</p><p><strong><u>SHOW LINKS:</u></strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>CONNECT WITH NEIL ON LINKEDIN</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/neil-smith-2a5ab64/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/neil-smith-2a5ab64/</a></p><p><strong>DOWNLOAD THE METTLE APP</strong></p><p><a href="https://bemettle.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://bemettle.com/</strong></a></p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p><strong>FIND NEIL’S BOOK RECOMMENDATION ON AMAZON</strong></p><p>Greenlights by Matthew McConoughey</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>GREEN LIGHTS BOOK:</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3Yyo2Wf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/3Yyo2Wf</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>GREENLIGHTS AUDIBLE:</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/48xFyi3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/48xFyi3</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>FREE PDF Download Version of 'BeingBOLD Book'</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.qbranch.consulting/being-bold-free-brand-and-leadership-book-download" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.qbranch.consulting/being-bold-free-brand-and-leadership-book-download</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><u>ABOUT LEADING BOLDLY PODCAST:</u></strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ready to take your business to the next level?

We delve into the founding of <em>Mettle</em> in 2022, a venture inspired by Neil’s personal journey and developed alongside notable co-founder Bear Grylls and mental health experts like Paul McKenna and Dr Alex George. Despite launching in a challenging funding climate, <em>Mettle</em> has already raised £2.5 million in pre-seed funding, attracting around 50,000 users within just eight months.</p><p>Highlights of the episode include:</p><ul><li><strong>Neil’s Transition from TV to Tech</strong></li><li>From producing award-winning TV shows to creating a men’s mental health app, Neil reflects on his career shift and the insights he’s carried over from media to mental health tech.</li><li><strong>The Development and Unique Approach of Mettle</strong></li><li>We explore how <em>Mettle</em> is crafted to address specific needs for men through brief, daily content – from calming breathwork and meditation “boosts” to one-minute motivational “mind fuel” clips – designed to fit seamlessly into a man’s day.</li><li><strong>Strategies for Business Success</strong></li><li>Neil discusses the importance of building a strong, diverse team and the value of "finding the others" – making key connections in the industry. His approach to balancing social impact with commercial growth has been vital in <em>Mettle</em>’s early success and user growth.</li><li><strong>Tackling the Male Mental Health Crisis</strong></li><li>With suicide as a leading cause of death for men under 50 in the UK, <em>Mettle</em> is part of a broader mission to bring mental fitness alongside physical fitness into everyday life. Neil shares his vision for how normalising mental health practices among men can lead to positive societal changes.</li></ul><br/><p>Tune in to hear Neil’s insights on entrepreneurship, leadership, and the transformative power of mental fitness tailored for men. <em>Mettle</em> is not only a business; it’s a mission-driven effort to reshape the conversation around men’s mental health.</p><p>#Leadership #MentalFitness #bemettle</p><p><strong><u>SHOW LINKS:</u></strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>CONNECT WITH NEIL ON LINKEDIN</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/neil-smith-2a5ab64/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.linkedin.com/in/neil-smith-2a5ab64/</a></p><p><strong>DOWNLOAD THE METTLE APP</strong></p><p><a href="https://bemettle.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>https://bemettle.com/</strong></a></p><p><strong>&nbsp;</strong></p><p><strong>FIND NEIL’S BOOK RECOMMENDATION ON AMAZON</strong></p><p>Greenlights by Matthew McConoughey</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>GREEN LIGHTS BOOK:</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/3Yyo2Wf" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/3Yyo2Wf</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>GREENLIGHTS AUDIBLE:</strong></p><p><a href="https://amzn.to/48xFyi3" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://amzn.to/48xFyi3</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong>FREE PDF Download Version of 'BeingBOLD Book'</strong></p><p><a href="https://www.qbranch.consulting/being-bold-free-brand-and-leadership-book-download" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.qbranch.consulting/being-bold-free-brand-and-leadership-book-download</a></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><strong><u>ABOUT LEADING BOLDLY PODCAST:</u></strong></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Ready to take your business to the next level?
