In this live podcast, we explore why career longevity isn't about keeping up with change, it's about learning to lead yourself through it. Success is often presented as a simple formula. Work harder + Do more = Achieve more. But what happens when the success you're chasing leaves you exhausted, disconnected, or wondering "is this really what I want?" Hustle culture has taught many of us that constant growth, productivity and pushing through are the path to success. But sustainable success requires something different. We need to understand ourselves, our strengths, our energy and what success actually means to us. We’ll explore: Why hustle culture is so seductive, especially earlier in our careersThe hidden cost of chasing external definitions of successHow self-sabotage, people-pleasing and the need for validation can hold us backWhy understanding who we are and aligning our careers to ourselves is the missing piece in creating long and meaningful successHow knowing your strengths, protecting your energy and making intentional choices can help you build a career that lastsWhy sustainable success benefits not only individuals, but also organisations and the people around us About 'The SEO Mindset' Podcast Build your inner confidence and thrive.

When was the last time something went wrong? Whether you’re in house or agency side, when did something not quite go to plan? We’re human. Mistakes happen. Things happen that are outside of our control. However, it doesn’t make it easier. This week we're joined by CEO and Founder, Paul Ince, to discuss this very topic. We discuss what happens when things go wrong and client/business relationships could be at risk, whether running a business gets easier, what to do when you ‘catastrophise', letting go of control, importance of client relationships, and of course practical strategies to help you navigate the next time something doesn’t quite go to plan. About Paul Paul is the CEO and founder of LikeMind Media, a marketing consultancy he established in 2015. For more than 20 years, he has worked alongside incredible businesses and brands, helping bring their content to life and articulating why they're so amazing. As Paul puts it: "I listen, I teach, I coach. I support you and your business." It's a philosophy that runs through everything he does.

Would you move from your home country to pursue your SEO or marketing career? That is exactly what our guest, Zarin Tasnim Salahuddin, did. Zarin is originally from Bangladesh, and she bravely decided to pack her bags, jump on a plane, and move her life to Nottingham, here in the UK. In this episode, she shares her journey, from finding work and stepping into new roles, to the challenges she's faced along the way and the support that has carried her through. About Zarin Zarin is a Marketing Executive at Clarity Homecare, specialising in SEO, SEO content writing, and social media marketing across both organic and paid channels. Before moving into this role, she spent 8 years running her own e-commerce business in Bangladesh, building an engaged audience of over 65,000 through a mix of organic and paid strategies while generating consistent revenue. This entrepreneurial background gave her hands-on experience across the full marketing funnel, from content and community building to paid acquisition and conversion. She has also worked with non-profits and startups, bringing a versatile, results-driven approach to every brand she supports — now applying that same blend of strategic thinking and hands-on execution to SEO and digital marketing in the UK.

Do you break out in a cool sweat when thinking of SEO sales pitches? We’ve all been there. On both sides, whether you’re giving a pitch or reviewing one and it doesn’t go to plan and you want the ground to open up and swallow you up. What if I told you that improv can help? I am not bonkers, bear with me. Derek Hobson joins the podcast to talk about this very topic. He shares the best and worst experiences he’s had and how the rules of improv can be applied to make pitching easier and more successful. He also gives you one thing to implement next time you pitch - to help you success. About Derek Derek Hobson is an SEO humorist and digital marketer, working in agencies and in-house across the US and — most recently — in the Netherlands. The only thing spanning longer than his search career is his background in improv, which ultimately prepared him for the most demanding audience (children’s attention): serving as a maritime historical reenactor (read: pirate) aboard the brig Pilgrim in Dana Point.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there was a cure for imposter syndrome? We all have to deal with it - it sneaks up time and time again. And the funny thing is, how can you be an imposter to something that you’ve been invited to? Most of the times we struggle with it, we’ve been invited to contribute or definitely have a right to be there. This week I have Dhea Mohammed joining me on the podcast to talk about this very topic. She shares how it shows up for her, when she realised it was a thing, what she has learned about imposter syndrome, and of course, practical tips you can implement to help you navigate it better. About Dhea Dhea Mohammed is a full time digital marketer. She grew up hanging out after school in my parents' marketing agency in Indonesia. She didn’t realise it then, but Dhea was absorbing the foundations of the industry like a sponge.

Remote working sounds like a dream: work for any company, anywhere in the world and if you're lucky, they'll even fly you out on work trips. Something that is not often spoken about is the transition into different workplace cultures, depending on where in the world a company is based, especially if its different from your own background. This week, I'm joined by two guests Roxana Stingu, and Laura Iancu. They join me to reflect on their own experiences, lost in translation moments, and what it actually takes to adapt to a new culture without losing yourself in the process. Struggling to navigate this in your own career? Stick around we've got practical tips and strategies you can put into action straight away. About Laura Laura Iancu is the founder of Searchpedia, the SEO Gal at Octopus Energy, and a proud member of Women in Tech SEO & NDs in SEO. She refers to herself as a search activist, meaning she doesn’t just talk about making search better, fairer, and more useful, she walks the walk. She’s also a mentor, something she genuinely loves, helping others find their confidence, voice, and place in the industry. Born in Romania and shaped by life across the UK, China and Europe, Laura brings an international lens to sustainability, search, accessibility, and inclusive communication.
