This week on How I Failed in Business, things get slightly inappropriate.

We kick things off with an unexpected apology from Meg... what for exactly is still up for debate, but it felt necessary. Whether it’s accountability or damage control… we’ll let you decide.

From there, we unpack a couple of recent events we've worked — the good, the bad, and the mistakes we absolutely should have seen coming. We share a series of near-disasters involving our new (and very expensive) kit almost getting lost, broken and/or both. These are stories of panic, responsibility, and the sudden realisation that things could've gone very wrong!

Naturally, the conversation takes a strange turn into *special* romance playlists — what songs belong on them, what definitely don’t, and why some choices raise serious questions about people’s judgement.

And finally, we bring back Grievance Gurus, where this week’s complaints revolve around one very modern workplace phenomenon: thirst traps. Are they harmless fun? Strategic personal branding? Or something your colleagues really didn’t need to see on LinkedIn?

In this episode, expect:

• A public apology from Meg 🙃
• Near - disasters & rising blood pressure 😅
• The do’s and don’ts of romance playlists 🎶
• The songs getting 20 something corporate girlies through the day 🩷✨
• Workplace thirst traps under investigation 🚩

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get competitive … again.

Meg and Rob take part in a Mystery Mishaps rematch.

The stakes are high, the confidence is questionable, and it quickly becomes clear that our department store knowledge could do with a serious polish.

There’s guessing, debating, and a strong commitment from both sides to win.

From there, we shift into a very mature conversation about feedback in the workplace — how to deliver it without causing offence, how to receive it without spiralling, and how to cope when the feedback you get isn’t exactly what you wanted to hear.

Because whether you’re giving it or getting it, feedback is rarely easy, especially when Megan and Rob are involved

In this episode, expect:

• The Mystery Mishaps rematch ⚔️
• Competitive chaos & questionable general knowledge
• A humbling moment for everyone involved 😅
• The art of delivering feedback without starting a war
• Coping with criticism (even when it stings)

If you like your business podcasts honest, funny, and occasionally humbling — this one’s for you.

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get educational, confrontational, and mildly disciplinary.

We kick things off with an introduction to the world of hopecore, the highly motivational internet trend that’s become Megan's whole personality.

From there, the conversation turns to leadership, what good leadership actually looks like, the responsibility that comes with it, and why setting the tone for a team matters more than most people realise.

Which is where Rob comes under fire.

After a series of mean jokes made at Megan and Molly’s expense, Rob is officially called out. What follows is less of a discussion and more of a very public telling off, with varying levels of remorse involved.

We also dive into the topic of toxic clients — the red flags that appear early on, the warning signs you shouldn’t ignore, and the difficult decisions that come with choosing who you do (and don’t) want to work with.

In this episode, expect:

• A whole lot of hopecore ✨
• The signs of good vs bad leadership
• Rob’s telling off 😅
• A brand new segment
• Toxic client stories & professional red flags 🚩

If you enjoy watching a young, strong female berate a egotistical middle ages white man live on a podcast, then How I Failed In Business is definitely for you!

This week on How I Failed in Business, things almost get out-of-hand ... thank god we had a mediator in the room 😅

We’re joined by Katy Harris, founder of Mediation Matters Midlands and The London Mediation Company, and co-host of Bridging the Gap Conference 2026.

Katy spends her days helping people navigate conflict, difficult conversations, and situations where emotions run high — skills that, as it turns out, become very useful during this episode.

We talk about what it’s really like to be a professional mediator — the challenges of the role, the human side of conflict resolution, and the delicate balance of helping people find common ground when tensions are already high.

Then things escalate.

When a disagreement between Megan and Rob starts to spiral, Katy suddenly finds herself mediating live on the podcast. What begins as a discussion quickly turns into a real-time demonstration of exactly why mediation exists… and why it might be needed more often than people realise.

From there, we shift gears to talk about Bridging the Gap Conference, which Katy will be hosting in just over a week. The event brings together professionals across the family law sector to explore how a more joined-up, collaborative approach can help families experiencing conflict — with a particular focus on improving outcomes for the children involved.

In this episode, expect:

• What it’s really like to work as a mediator
• The emotional and practical challenges of conflict resolution
• Katy mediating a real disagreement live on the podcast 😅
• Rob’s dramatic exit 🚪
• The mission behind Bridging the Gap Conference 2026
• Why collaboration across the family law sector matters

If you deal with family conflicts in anyway, Bridging the Gap is definitely for you! Find out more https://www.bridgingthegap2026.co.uk/ - act quickly, final tickets remaining!

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get unexpectedly deep and unapologetically positive.

But first, we start with Megan sharing her near-death experiences — a collection of moments that definitely shortened her life expectancy and forced some perspective shifts.

Then we’re joined by Hollie Thompson, founder of Scent 3, to dive into the world of scent marketing — why it’s massively underrated, wildly powerful, and the secret weapon most brands are completely sleeping on.

Hollie shares her journey into entrepreneurship, navigating imposter syndrome, managing complicated family dynamics, and the mindset shift that helped her to start backing herself. It’s honest, emotional, and refreshingly real.

We also talk about the power of manifestation and visualisation and why mindset actually matters more than most people want to admit, and whether there’s such a thing as too much positivity — or if we all just need a bit more of it.

In this episode, expect:

• Megan’s near-death storytelling era 😅
• The psychology of scent marketing 👃
• Hollie’s unique journey
• Imposter syndrome, family pressure & self-belief
• Manifestation, visualisation & mindset shifts ✨
• Wayyyy too much positivity (apparently)

If you like your business podcasts honest, emotional, funny, and unexpectedly uplifting — this one’s for you.

This week on How I Failed in Business, everything is slightly unhinged, because everyone is stressed.

We kick things off talking about the Year of the Horse, why it’s apparently cursed for Megan and Molly, and how sometimes the universe really does feel like it’s personally beefing with you.

Then we dive into the absolute chaos of double (or triple) booking yourself, Rob’s voice-over gig, and why analogies aren’t always helpful — especially when you’re already overwhelmed, overstimulated, and one mild inconvenience away from losing the plot.

In this episode, expect:

• Stress spirals 🌀
• Calendar chaos & chronic overbooking
• Cringe voice-overs cringe 😬
• A story about a butterfly and over-grown beetle 🦋🪲
• Why some metaphors should stay in your head...

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re joined by one of our very own, Owen MacKinnon, aka Head of Nerdy Shit at Paragon Sales Solutions.

We unpack Owen’s career journey from recruitment into sales, the lessons learned along the way, and how finding the right job can completely change your trajectory. It’s a conversation about growth, confidence and figuring out what you’re really good at.

We also dive into the importance of content creation and team participation, why everyone should be involved (yes, Owen), and how showing up online as a business is all about aura.

And then… Megan files a formal grievance against Owen.

What starts as a professional conversation quickly descends into chaos, questionable workplace behaviour, and an HR nightmare that absolutely does not exist (probably).

In this episode, expect:

• A career journey from recruitment into sales
• Finding your lane and backing yourself
• Why content creation should be a team sport 🎥
• Upholding personal image
• A completely unnecessary internal grievance 😅

If you like your business podcasts honest, funny, and slightly unhinged — this one’s for you.

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get creative, candid, and physically dangerous (for Shaun).

We’re joined by Shaun Cole, and we get straight into the reality of running a creative agency — the wins, the mess, the constant learning curve, and the moment you realise being the boss absolutely does not mean you’ve got it all figured out. We talk starting a business from scratch, making it up as you go along, and why no one ever really “finishes” learning in business.

Then… the skate park incident.

An injury. A bad decision. A humbling moment that proves gravity is undefeated and entrepreneurs are not indestructible. We unpack what happened, what went wrong, and how sometimes your biggest lessons come from completely outside the boardroom.

In this episode, expect:

What it’s actually like running a creative agency 🎨

Starting a business when you don’t have all the answers

Learning on the job (even as the owner)

Shaun’s infamous skate park accident 🛹

Client red flags you should never ignore 🚩

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get psychological, painfully honest, and slightly unhinged (mostly for Megan).\

We kick things off with a look into video marketing - why it’s everywhere, why it works, and how even marketers themselves can still fall for the very tactics they help create. Proof that no one is immune to good storytelling and a well-placed hook.

Then things take a turn straight into Megan’s subconscious. We unpack borderline-concerning dreams Megan’s been having - the kind that feel real, linger all day, and make you question whether your brain is actively working against you. There’s analysis, speculation, and absolutely no professional dream interpreter in sight.

From there, we get brutally honest about lying in interviews and on CVs — the small exaggerations, the big fabrications, and all the ways it can (and does) go spectacularly wrong. It’s a conversation about credibility, and what happens when the version of you on paper doesn’t quite match the one in the room.

In this episode, expect:

Video marketing tactics that even marketers fall for 🎥

Megan’s unsettling dream multiverse 💤

The slippery slope of “just stretching the truth” on CVs

Interview lies, red flags, and career-ending moments

Questioning your own sanity 😅

If you like your business podcasts honest, funny, slightly uncomfortable, and unexpectedly self-reflective — this one’s for you.

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get educational, emotional, and follicular.

We start by attempting to learn different languages and absolutely butchering a few accents, and say a heartfelt thank you to all our listeners across the globe!

We're then joined by Kate Holohan, a specialist in trichology, who brings both expertise and honesty in equal measure. Kate shares how she found herself working in such a niche field, what trichology actually involves, and why hair health is about far more than just products on a shelf.

We dig into some of the most common hair-care myths people still believe, and why Rob’s receding hairline may or may not be entirely his own fault.

Kate also opens up about losing her business under deeply unfair circumstances, the impact that had on her personally and professionally, and how she rebuilt herself and her career stronger than ever. It’s an honest conversation about resilience, starting again, and trusting your expertise when everything else falls away.

In this episode, expect:

Learning new languages (badly) and questionable accents 🌍

A very sincere apology from Megan

Rob confronting his hairline head-on 💇‍♂️

Losing a business, rebuilding confidence, and coming back stronger

A story all about feet 🦶

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re back, and we’re easing in the only way we know how: a bit of life admin, big plans for the year ahead, and stories that quickly spiral into “how did we even get here?” territory.

We kick things off by catching up on what we got up to over the break and the goals we've been setting for the year ahead — the realistic ones, the ambitious ones, and the ones we’ll probably laugh about later.

Then we’re joined by Ryan Faulkner and John Mark from 42 Risk Management, who bring the chaos in the best possible way. From working security on the doors to concerts, festivals, and high-profile clients, they share some genuinely unbelievable stories!

We also dig into how Ryan and John Mark built 42 Risk Management, how they balance the business together, and how they push, challenge, and motivate each other when things get tough.

And... Ryan and Rob take a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about the first time they met, at a divorce party, with Ryan working the bar and Rob working as a naked butler.

In this episode, expect:

A catch-up and goals for the year ahead 🎯

Life on the doors: concerts, festivals, and security chaos ✨

Stories of stalkers, fans, and being sent a life size human mannequin... 😳

Motivation, accountability, and growing a business as a team 💪

A naked butler origin story (obviously) 🍹

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re ringing in the new year the only way we know how… with a drink in hand, a little bit of chaos, and a surprising amount of reflection.

We kick things off by raising a glass to 2025, celebrating the moments that made us laugh, cringe, and go “did that really happen?!” — before getting properly hopeful (and slightly tipsy) as we share our wishes for 2026.

Along the way, we look back on some of our favourite guests and episodes, reliving the conversations that stuck with us, the lessons we didn’t expect, and the moments that have become proper “How I Failed” classics.

If you fancy something that feels like a New Year catch-up with mates — honest, funny, and a bit unfiltered — this one’s for you.

In this episode, expect:

A toast to 2025 (and everything it threw at us)

Our wishes, hopes, and slightly ambitious plans for 2026

A look back at favourite guests and standout episodes

Our 2025 best bits — the funny moments, the wins, and the “only us” moments

Tipsy chat, real reflections, and the usual unplanned chaos

We are taking a short break for the start for January 2026, and will be back in the middle of the month!

This week on How I Failed in Business, things get emotional

The episode kicks off with our usual, perfectly normal chit-chat — with Megan completely unaware of what's about to happen...

What follows is a full-blown “This Is Your Life”-style celebration, as Rob reveals a disturbing number of stories from Megan’s childhood (some of which probably should’ve stayed buried). Along the way, we share heartfelt messages, videos, and memories from Megan’s family and friends — and yes, tissues are strongly recommended.

But the surprises don’t stop there.

We’re joined by some very special guests, leading to an emotional reunion with one of the biggest role models in Megan’s life — a moment none of us were quite prepared for.

In this episode, expect:

🎈 A big birthday ambush

📼 Childhood stories that range from hilarious to mildly concerning

❤️ Messages from family and friends that hit right in the feels

🌟 Surprise guest appearance and an unforgettable reunion

😂 The usual chaos, laughter, and completely unplanned emotions

It’s heartfelt, it’s funny, it’s slightly unhinged — and it might just be our most personal episode yet.

This week on How I Failed in Business, we welcome perhaps our funniest guest yet — the brilliant (and dangerously quick-witted) Liam Fish. If you’ve ever wondered what happens when you mix Christmas chaos, stand-up comedy, and career lessons… well, this episode is for you.

In this episode, we dive into:

Our Christmas plans - including the surprisingly heated debate over how to cook sprouts that actually taste good! 🎄 

Liam and Rob's crazy venture into stand-up comedy 🎤

The “thrill” of being a client relationship manager (and yes, the quotation marks are intentional 😅)

Knowing your worth, and charging for it! 💰

As always, the trio manage to derail the conversation with their own brand of questionable humour — none of which we’ve edited out. You're welcome.

Expect unfiltered storytelling, practical lessons, and more laughs than we were prepared for!

This week on How I Failed in Business, we welcome the brilliant Radosław Wróblewski — founder of Sparrow Construction — a man who knows a thing or two about building things that don’t fall apart… unlike some of our business decisions.

In this episode, we break down:

What running a construction company teaches you about leadership and resilience 🧱

The art of making yourself completely unnecessary in your own business

Whether work–life balance is real or just another myth we're trying to chase 🌙

And Megan and Rob drop a few inappropriate jokes that we absolutely did not edit out!

Radoslaw brings raw experience, sharp insights, and the kind of perspective that only comes from years of solving problems people didn’t know they had.

Expect honest conversation, practical takeaways, and more laughs than we planned for — because apparently we can’t be trusted with microphones and a platform.

This week on How I Failed in Business, we dive into the wild world of branding — and why getting it right isn’t optional. We’re joined by the brilliant and insightful Sharon Lewin, who helps us unpack what branding really says about your company, and why it matters more than you might think.

Together we explore:

• Logo, colour palette, tone of voice and more 🎨
• Why the right branding can make or break first impressions 👥
• What your branding communicates to clients or customers before you even say a word 🤫
• Real-life examples of brands that are absolutely nailing it
• ... and those that are falling flat 💎
• How branding builds trust, loyalty and helps you stand out in a crowded market

We are also get a surprise visit from the branding police 👮‍♂️ (accent: unknown) who provides some pretty compelling evidence on a certain companies crimes against graphic design ...

Tune in for straight talk, some laughs, and maybe a branding intervention or two. Because whether you realise it or not — someone is always watching your brand police.

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re back from an eventful trip to London—complete with stories, masterclasses, and a fresh batch of questionable ideas.

We’re also joined by the brilliant Mark Harris of Digital Consultancy Services, who brings some serious wisdom, whilst still adding some chaos, to the studio.

Of course, it wouldn’t be our show without a little internal disarray. From debating new set ideas to the sudden obsession with putting every single object on wheels, there’s plenty to unpack…

In this episode:

Our key takeaways from our London masterclasses 🎙️

Why people just don’t like salespeople 😳

Listening to wallets, not words 💸

The lies we're being fed from Dominos 🍕

And... we take a little dig at Rob’s big ego 😗

It’s insightful, ridiculous, and a reminder that even with big ideas (and bigger egos), we’re all still figuring it out one episode at a time.

This week on How I Failed in Business, we're joined by the multi-talented Francis Roughly — professional actor, dancer, and creative powerhouse behind the camera as a videographer and editor.

From beating Ashley Banjo to a Bollywood role (yes, really 👀) to bringing storytelling to life through dance and editing, Frances’ journey is one of hustle, heart, and staying true to yourself in a crowded landscape.

In this episode:

The leap into dance — and how it unlocked a creative career 🕺

Landing a major Bollywood gig 😮

How movement and rhythm shape Francis’ editing style ✂️

A nostalgic detour into Blockbuster, VHS tapes, and Saturday night rituals 📼

How brutal the performing arts industry can be 🎭

Why authenticity matters more than ever ❤️

This one's packed with laughs, insight, and a whole lot of behind-the-scenes stories.

And yes, we may or may not try to recreate some interesting dance moves live on the podcast. You’ve been warned. 👀

This week on How I Failed in Business, we’re joined by a very special guest, Charlie Springthorpe, who traded her corporate job in the UK for a completely different life —running a hotel in Thailand, navigating a new culture, and cohabiting with a lizard named Lizzie.

In this episode

• The reality of starting over in a new country ✈️🌏
• Culture shocks, communication fails, and learning as you go ✨
• Renovating an abandoned hotel - the pits and the downfalls (literally) ⛈️
• A mystery involving a monkey 🐒 and one very suspicious-looking banana trail 🍌
• The importance of self belief and owning your choices—even when they make zero sense on paper

If that doesn't sell it for you, at least tune into to witness Rob try an 'unusual' tasting traditional Durian candy...

This one’s got it all: big life pivots, small business chaos, and some of our most unique and crazy stories yet! 🦎

This week on How I Failed In Business, we’re taking a break from our regularly scheduled programming to celebrating the release of Taylor Swift’s newest album in true showgirl fashion.

This very special bonus episode is all about the brilliance of Taylor: her music, her marketing, and her unique business strategies. From secret drops to billion-dollar branding moves, we're breaking down what makes Taylor not just a cultural icon, but a masterclass in reinvention and entrepreneurship.

Between sipping (and spilling) our Taylor-themes cocktails, we :

• Take a deep dive into the new album 🧡
• Look at her her genius marketing strategies, and what we can learn from them
• Discuss the evolution of her business empire (did she girlboss to close to the sun? 😭)
• Play the ultimate Swiftie knowledge quiz showdown, and Meg gets even more competitive than usual!

Whether you're a Swiftie, an aspiring one, or just here for the vibes, you’ll walk away inspired and ready to tackle the life of a showgirl! 💃✨

This week on How I Failed In Business, we’re diving into a little myth: that you need a degree to succeed. Spoiler alert, none of us have one. And yet, here we are.

In this episode, we're joined by Vanisha Patel, social media whiz. We’re talking about unconventional paths, the pressure to “have it all figured out,” and why traditional success metrics don’t always apply when you’re building your own thing.

We also unpack some of the stigmas around not going to uni, how imposter syndrome shows up in unexpected ways, and what we’ve learned by doing the work instead of studying it in a lecture hall.

What to expect:

No degrees, no problem

Real talk on feeling behind 📉 (and how to move through it)

The power of betting on yourself 🔥

Vulnerable convos and a few hard truths 👀

Why experience > credentials (most of the time)

New episodes drop every Tuesday - full of insights, disasters, and the kind of lessons that only come from living it. Stream now wherever you get your podcasts!

In this episode, we’re testing out some shiny new equipment and chatting about what’s next for the podcast.

What to expect :

Angel numbers everywhere 👼

✨ How Taylor Swift has been sending us signs

Autumn vibes and seasonal obsessions 🎃🍂

🎙️ Our best moments (and fails) from Season 2

New gear, new goals, same chaotic energy

This one’s a wholesome, slightly whimsical, behind-the-scenes catch-up on all things HIFIB

This week on How I Failed In Business, things get a little off-track. Literally.

We took the podcast on the move with a wild day at Land Rover Experience, where we filmed from the back of a Defender while tackling the terrain. Spoiler: we almost didn’t make it out alive - but we got a great episode out of it.

In this episode:

Our first ever (slightly bumpy) mobile podcast recording 🚙

A Tudor-themed quiz that quickly goes off the rails

Megan’s first-ever driving lesson 😅

From near-death experiences to historical facts, this is not your average business podcast episode.

This week on How I Failed In Business, things get gamey! We threw the rulebook out the window (and maybe copyright laws too?) and hosted our very own version of a classic TV gameshow 

In between the chaos, we somehow managed to cover:

The importance of making time for yourself

The emotional rollercoaster of letting go of weirdly sentimental items 💍

A surprise call from immigration ...

The most overused corporate phrases we can’t stop saying 💼💬 (and some that Meg has never even heard of)

And of course, our brand new, very original, game! 🎊

Let’s be honest: it’s unhinged, it’s unexpected, and it might just be our most fun episode yet.

• Avoiding those “oops-I-had-one-too-many” 😅 situations
