About Me

My name is Alistair and I am a 28 year old business professional and fellow podcaster based in the UK.

I have always chosen paths less travelled, including my unique journey into my career as a Project Events Director for medical and pharmaceutical companies. I bypassed university / college instead choosing a practical apprenticeship based onsite with a leading UK agency. I lead a team of three and am always working to improve, develop and inspire them to have the best possible outcome and thus future. As part of my role I plan and deliver complex, in person and online events for my clients under high pressure situations and tight turn around times. Working internally also to improve processes and keep team motivation high.

I run my own podcast show Picking at Perfection, that has the aim to help individuals choose purpose instead of getting caught up in making things perfect. I have interviewed such guests as Tom Solid, Youtuber and Founder of the Paperless Movement, and Judith Quin, Author and Member of the Association of Transformational Leaders of Europe.

My journey as a gay man has been an interesting one, not as bad as some but still not easy. I have always struggled with the fact that perhaps I do no fit what society defines as a “perfect human” or the norm and this is partially the inspiration behind my podcast. My relationship with family members and people around me is somewhat difficult with their expectations also weighing down on me. Despite everything, I credit this journey for making me the passionate and successful individual I am today.

I welcome guest enquiries for all types of shows and look forward to any discussion we may have.
