The Relentless Few
The Edit. The Ending. The Evolution.
Welcome to this special—and final—episode of the Relentless Few podcast. I take some time to reflect on the journey this podcast has taken—from its origins and growth to why I’m choosing to bring it to a close, at least in its current form.Throughout our time together, I’ve built everything around the E4 rhythm: explore, experiment, evaluate, and edit. Today, I challenge the common belief that ending or pausing something means we’ve failed. In reality, I see this as an essential, conscious edit and an evolution in who I am and the w...

This episode is the second part of my three-episode series, “If This Is The End.” Instead of rushing to find clarity or making quick decisions, I'm challenging the cultural “bias to action” and asking...

The Cost Of Evolving
Perry re-introduces the E3 Framework – Explore, Experiment, Evolve – and highlights the importance of word choice, emphasizing "evolve" over "change" and "transformation." Throughout the episode, Perry discusses the concept of evolving as a personal choice, driven by internal considerations rather than external stimuli.The Power of Conversation: "Our belief systems do not align, but we have great conversations because we're curious with each other.

Condemned to Be Free: Exploring Sartre's Existentialist Philosophy (S1.22)
According to French existentialist Jean-Paul Sartre, despite not creating ourselves and being put here without consent, we do have the ability, I believe it is a responsibility, to make choices and act freely in every situation. Looking around at our society today, I think sometimes we’ve lost that mindset and instead believe things happen to us (and not for us).

Is Leadership Overrated? Exploring the Real Value of Management in Organizations (S1.20)
Management is what creates value, not leadership. And yet we’ve become enamored by leadership; the vision, the strategy, and the charisma. In the process, we’ve created an ecosystem that supports just one level of an organization to think creatively, come up with unique or interesting ideas, or build the vision of the organization, leaving it to others to implement those ideas. 80% of the important things that happen in a business are management-oriented, which leads me to believe nobody’s job should be to purely lead an organization.

Evolving On Purpose
Most of the time, we aspire to chase big, hairy, audacious goals. We want to move far beyond what we’ve done in the past. And yet we don’t allow our future selves to define what those goals are - we think about where we’ve been and set about going in the opposite direction.Evolving on purpose suggests two things; doing something with intention and moving towards a specific end state.

Creating A Life You Don't Want to Retire From
Prior to the late 1800’s the concept of retirement didn’t exist. And it wasn’t until the mid-1900’s that older people were financially compensated for leaving employment - at an age where they had usually outlived the average life expectancy of the time. This antiquated concept of retirement no longer makes fiscal or social sense. In this episode I’m taking a look at the historical and financial impact of retirement and exploring how leaders can intentionally and explicitly create a life they don’t want (or need) to retire from by taking small steps towards the th...

Thoughts On Writing And Thinking
The traditional mindset around leadership is that good leaders know how to act. Whilst that’s true to a point - leaders do need to take action - I believe more importantly, leaders need to think in order to create strategies or things of value that don’t exist but will improve the value of their organization. Leadership means doing the cognitive heavy lifting, understanding what action needs to be taken, and being in charge of directing others. This requires higher order thinking, including the ability to analyze, evaluate, and create. With that comes the responsibility to asses...
