Screw It, Just Do It

Everyone has ambitions. To start their own business. To lose weight. To launch a podcast. But for most of us, those ambitions are still on the to-do list. You’ll get round to them… one day.

But some people overcome procrastination. That thing you’d love to do? They knew the risks but said “screw it” and just did it anyway.

On the Screw It Just Do It podcast, Alex Chisnall is on a mission to answer one simple question: how do you get to where you want to be?

Joining him are inspirational entrepreneurs, sports stars, entertainers and authors who took the leap. They became the people they wanted to be. They did what they always wanted to do. In this series of revealing, challenging and often surprising conversations, they might just help you discover how to do it too.

Virgin Atlantic

Started as cabin crew to see the world in 1994. I said I'd do it for two years. The job became a lifestyle, met my wife (then girlfriend & now mother of my two girls) and after going as far as I could go in the job, finishing up as a manager, I took voluntary redundancy 2009, inspired by RB to start my own business.

Manager

Started straight from University as trainee journalist at BBC Radio Wales interviewing everyone from heavyweight champion of the world Lennox Lewis to leader of the opposition Neil Kinnock. Transitioned to youth programming before having my head turned and leaving to see the world with Virgin Atlantic...

Journalist

I've spent a looong time in broadcasting. 

I started my career with the BBC back in the 1990's. 

In 2017 I launched a podcast.

Screw It Just DO It was the attitude.

It was also the name of the podcast.

Initially no-one listened (aside from my wife and mum).

Then everyone did.

Having the #1 rated business show across the globe from the UK to Uganda got me thinking.

There must, I thought, be lots of people with something fascinating, fun exciting or insightful to say, who have no idea how to launch their own podcast.

So I started my own podcast agency.

Podpreneur was born.
