Series 2 starts with a brilliant one.

I’m joined by Jason Sammon, Founder of FL1 Digital, to talk about something most leaders, founders and managers will have dealt with at some point... difficult clients.

But really, this episode is about difficult people full stop. The awkward conversations, power plays, unreasonable expectations, and those moments where someone can make you feel completely backed into a corner.

Jason is incredibly honest about some of his own experiences, including times he got it wrong, what he learned, and how he ultimately turned some difficult relationships into positive ones.

A very real conversation about something no one really teaches you.

This episode of No One Teaches You This

Managing conflict at work.

Conflict is one of those things every leader faces… but very few are ever taught how to handle it properly.

In this episode, I’m joined by Dileep Marway, an experienced tech leader who’s spent years navigating disagreement, tension, and tough conversations inside growing teams.

We talk openly about:

Whether conflict is actually a good thing

The difference between healthy debate and damaging conflict

How leaders can manage conflict without avoiding it or escalating it

Why handling conflict well can have a huge positive impact on your career

What happens when conflict is ignored for too long

This is a practical, honest conversation for anyone leading people, stepping into leadership, or dealing with friction inside their team.

This episode of No One Teaches You This dives into one of the most common — and least talked about — challenges in leadership: Imposter Syndrome.

That quiet voice that tells you you’re not good enough.

That feeling of being “found out”.

That pressure to prove yourself, even when you’ve already earned your seat at the table.

I’m joined by Iain Campbell — an experienced tech leader who speaks openly and honestly about dealing with imposter syndrome throughout his career. (LinkedIn → https://www.linkedin.com/in/iainca/)

We talk candidly about self-doubt, confidence, identity, leadership pressure, and what it’s really like behind the scenes when you’re expected to have all the answers.

This isn’t theory. It’s real leadership, in the real world.

In this episode, we cover:

• What imposter syndrome actually feels like at senior level

• Why high performers are often the ones who suffer most

• The pressure of leadership identity and expectations

• How comparison quietly wrecks confidence

• Why promotion can make self-doubt worse, not better

• Practical ways to manage imposter syndrome day to day

• What to do when your inner critic is louder than your evidence

If you’ve ever questioned whether you’re “good enough” — especially as you progress in your career — this one will really hit home.
