A Personal Update: My Hospital Experience and Recovery Journey
Hey everyone,
I wanted to take a moment to share an update, especially after receiving so many kind messages and well-wishes from all of you following my last post. Your support has been overwhelming, and I thought it would be good to fill you in on what’s been happening.
A Huge Thank You
First off, I need to express a MASSIVE thank you to everyone who has reached out. Your messages have meant the world to me. An even bigger thank you goes to my family, who have been incredible throughout this time.
Lucy has been by my side constantly since I got home. My brother James also needs a special shout-out—he spent the weekend with us, cooking meals, taking our dog Misty for walks, and keeping our little boy entertained. It was truly amazing.
I can’t forget to mention my mum, who stayed with me the first night after surgery while I was completely out of it. And, of course, a big thank you to Lucy again for visiting me in the hospital—there’s a funny story there that I’ll get to in a bit. My in-laws have been invaluable, helping with everything from getting me home from the hospital to looking after our son and supporting Lucy with her appointments.
I’m beyond grateful for all the support I’ve received—it’s come in so many forms, and it’s made all the difference.
The Amazing NHS Staff
I also want to take a moment to thank the NHS staff. They’re true legends—not just in the way people often say, but genuinely hard-working, caring individuals. The diversity within the NHS is something to be celebrated, with staff from all walks of life and backgrounds coming together to provide care. We’re incredibly fortunate in the UK to have the NHS and the amazing people who make it what it is.
However, it’s clear they’re stretched thin. One nurse I met was working night shifts and also had a part-time cleaning job just to make ends meet. It’s heartbreaking to see, but I’m so thankful for the care I received.

I need to take a break from the podcast due to some personal health issues. And before you start screaming "Millennial Snowflake Burnout W**ker".... it's not that!
For the past few years, I’ve been dealing with bad chest pains and chronic pneumonia, which have really taken a toll on my fitness and overall health. After a lot of tests, I found out I have Barrett's Oesophagus, a treatable but "pre-cancerous" condition.
I also had heart and respiratory tests, but they didn’t find anything major. However, an MRI revealed that I had broken the top ribs (Rib #1) on both sides (I think, but don't know that this was when I fell off a roof), with one causing sharp pain by pressing into (and most likely perforating) my lung. This means I need a tricky surgery to fix it, which involves open chest surgery.
Despite all these health problems, I’m positive and hopeful about getting back to 100%. My family and friends have been incredibly supportive, and I’m really grateful for their help.
I’ll be thinking up new content for the podcast while I’m recovering.
Thanks for understanding and for all your support.
See you on the other side!

Marketing strategy is about moving from chaos to structure and involves creating a plan of action to achieve long-term goals. It is important to have a strategy as opposed to conducting marketing activities without an overall purpose. Scattergun marketing and rudderless marketing are examples of ineffective strategies.
A good marketing strategy focuses on understanding the target consumer, competitors, and objectives, and creates a mutually profitable long-term relationship between the company and its customers. It is important to adapt marketing strategies to the changing competitive landscape and consumer demands.
Porter's three generic competitive strategies are overall cost leadership, differentiation, and focus. In this conversation, Will Green MA MBA discusses the key elements of a marketing strategy, including target market identification, unique value proposition, marketing mix, market research, objectives, budget allocation, and implementation plan. He also explores the importance of adapting and changing marketing strategies based on performance, opportunities, and threats.
Will provides examples of successful marketing strategies and emphasises the need for customer-centric marketing. He also mentions trends in marketing, such as moving from make and sell marketing to sense and respond marketing, and from mass marketing to customised marketing.
