Cuppa, Press Record: Defining the New Media Podcaster

Martin reflects on how to describe his work after a prompting from peers: is he a New Media Advisor, Podcast Strategist, Podcast Philosopher—or simply someone who helps people tell their stories? He unpacks the practical side of podcasting: strategy versus tactics, the value of just starting (press record), repurposing everyday encounters for episodes, and encouraging clients through example (one client grew to 100 episodes and 14 seasons). Martin also frames his identity around podcasting 2.0 features, freedom of expression, and the blend of philosophy and hands-on support he brings to personal brands, nonprofits, and small businesses.

Tea, Identity & Resilience: Sean Hegarty’s PrimeACT Journey

Sean Hegarty joins Martin Lindeskog to discuss his transition from a career paramedic to author, coach, and Circle Networker. He shares the personal crisis that forced him to reinvent himself, how he stripped away an identity tied to his job, and the development of his framework PrimeACT. Sean explains the Prime side as introspection—values, self-recognition—and ACT as the practical steps to live in alignment. They also touch on his book The Sean Method (second edition), feedback-led revisions to broaden its audience, and how his lived experience shapes the work he now offers to help others bridge belief and action.
