But first… here’s a look back at the journey so far 👇
Thank you for being part of WMYT's first 2 years!
Curious to ask, what's been your highlight so far, and who should we have on next?
Main shoutout to Tolu Adebekun, my brother from another mother for being the best co-host in the world, and to Gaia Musotti and Sarah Knowles (née Cann) for making our idea come to life. This was a huge team effort.

Ahhhh, we finally did it! 🎬
(Our first live one @WhatMakesYouTick! )
- We're 63 episodes deep
- Its been 18 MONTHS since we started
- With another 8 episode's unreleased and queued
That first conversation where we spoke about WHY and MISSION looks so bad now 😬
But the message is still pure and true 👌
Onwards,
The Podfather himself Tolu and I will be releasing some bigger and better content for you soon.
(Tolu is now a TedX speaker so I'm not sure how long we'll get to keep him around before he's touring the world speaking to giant crowds!)
So,
Let us know if YOU would like to join us in the Cheeky Monkey Videos studio next year 🎥
If you are (or you know) an intrapreneurial leader with an interesting career story to tell,
... then we're your people 🤝.
What's coming up?
We're starting with a special of the What Makes You Tick: Tech Leaders Career Stories podcast
(and some cool new bits for the main pod)
p.s Dont get me wrong
it's amazing to connect on video with all the inspiring leaders all around the world
(we can't get enough of it!)
Yet, this format hits different.
More personal, more real, more us.
👀 Watch out for the updates here

Thinking about it won’t make it happen.
(Action beats overthinking every time)
- Want a raise? Ask.
- Like that job? Apply.
- Unhappy at work? Quit.
- Got a Dream Client? Go and help them.
- Great idea got you fired up? Bring it into existence!
The fear of REGRET lasts far longer than the fear of FALIURE.
Stop waiting, stop playing the scenarios, take a small action today.
Your future self will thank you
(but you knew that already didn't you...)
Remember: You can't lose something you never had.
And if you can't lose, then winning is guaranteed.
Can I get a hell yes on this?

Ever wondered if you’re really getting paid what you’re worth? 💸
(If you haven’t heard of this man yet, you’re probably not…)
Tomorrow we drop a What Makes You Tick must-hear episode with Devon Hennig and the Podfather (TEDx speaker) Tolu Adebekun
Devon is a brilliant exec turned founder, community builder, and author of the Senior Compensation Bible
(this book will be a global best seller - mark my words!)
What Makes Devon Tick? = Helping leaders get paid, not played.
In this week’s episode,
- Hear his hardest-earned lessons,
- The costly mistakes he made on the climb up,
- The exact moment he realized he’d left thousands on the table.
(You won’t believe what he uncovered...)
Tune in to hear real talk on:
1. The high cost of undervaluing yourself
2. How to negotiate what you’re really worth
3. The mindsets that set standout leaders apart
4. The #1 negotiation mistake to avoid immediately
5. How to build a culture top talent loves (and stays for)
This episode will change how you think about your career - and your worth.
🎧 Ready your playlists, drops tomorrow 13:30 London / 08:30 Toronto
