Paul Mort Talks Sh*t

If your business looks like it's working from the outside, but behind the scenes you're stressed, stretched, reactive, and wondering if this is really what you built it for… This one's for you. On Wednesday 7th and Thursday 8th October 2026, I'm opening up Unstoppable HQ in South Shields for 2 days only. Just 30 business owners in the room. No flakers. No amateurs. No guest speakers. No confusing tactics. No sitting there filling a notebook with theory and doing nothing with it. Just me, sharing what I've learned from 25 years in business, building and investing in multiple businesses, being named UK Master Coach of the Year twice, being published twice, and coaching thousands of business owners. But the point isn't me. The point is what you walk out with. Inside the Unstoppable 2-Day Business Summit, we're going to work on the stuff that actually moves the needle in your business and your life: ➡️ Your 1-page, 1-year marketing plan ➡️ A steadier stream of leads and enquiries ➡️ How to close more of those enquiries ➡️ Systems and processes so the business can run without you as much as possible ➡️ How to use AI to remove the boring, manual, mind-numbing stuff ➡️ The mindset and standards that keep your passion and direction switched on ➡️ A plan you actually build in the room, not just notes you never use again At the last summit, 7 people made their ticket money back on day one using my 9-word sales message while they were still sat in the room. That's the kind of room this is. Action. Clarity. Momentum. Business owners who are serious about building something special. This is for the business owner who looks like they're winning, but knows they're running empty. The one making decent money, but with no time. The one who started the business for freedom, but accidentally built a prison. The one who's quietly asking, "Is this it?" The one who wants more money, more time, more structure, more energy, and a business they actually enjoy again. And because I'm taking the risk: If you get to the end of day two and you don't think it was worth 10x what you paid, tell me and I'll give you your money back. 30 seats. 2 days. Last one until 2027. Doors are open now.

After the response to my last episode on building my life and business with ADHD, I had so many questions come in that I decided to do a follow-up. This is your ADHD questions answered episode. Quick disclaimer: I'm not a doctor. This is not medical advice. I'm not medically trained. I'm sharing from my own experience of being wired differently my entire life and being officially diagnosed back in 2013. In this episode, I answer questions around ADHD, focus, overwhelm, task paralysis, motivation, hyperfocus, impulse control, alcohol, parenting, medication, business, and how I actually get things done. What I cover: How I got diagnosed and what the process looked like for me What to do when it feels like you've got 1,000 thoughts at once Why I use meditation, Yoga Nidra and brain dumps to train my focus How I start tasks I don't want to do Why planning isn't doing, and how to manufacture urgency when the dopamine isn't there How I switch tasks without spiralling into overwhelm Why I believe ADHD is often an interest issue, not a focus issue How I calm myself down when overwhelm hits How I'd build a business alongside a full-time job How I manage hyperfocus and interruptions What I do for impulse control The tools, hires and systems that help offset ADHD Why alcohol can become a dopamine crutch How to ask for help without letting shame take over How my wife deals with my ADHD now compared to when we first got together What support can help kids and teens who are wired differently Why I don't see ADHD as broken, but as being built different What I actually love about ADHD The big message? You're not broken. You're wired differently. And if you can understand what lights you up, build your environment properly, delegate the stuff that drains you, and stop forcing yourself into systems that don't fit, you can use it instead of fighting it.

Welcome back to Paul Mort Talks Sh*t (Solo). This episode is about a concept that's been a complete cheat code for me in business: WHO, not HOW. Most people sit there asking: "How do I do this?" I ask: "Who can help me?" "Who's already done it?" "Who can open the door?" But here's the problem… People have got this twisted. They think "who not how" means skip the work and DM strangers asking for favours. This week alone I got messages like: "Can you hook me up with your contact at Neutonic?" "Can you message James Smith for me?" "Can you send me your agent / HarperCollins contact?" From people I don't know. No relationship. No value given. Just take, take, take. So in this episode I break down how this REALLY works. What I cover: ➡️ Why asking before giving kills trust (emotional bank account) ➡️ Why introductions put someone's reputation on the line ➡️ The truth: access isn't free — it's earned (effort, energy, sometimes money) ➡️ Why most of my connections came from rooms, events, masterminds… not DMs ➡️ The key relationship question: "What's in it for them?" The 6 steps I use to build relationships and grow my network properly: 1. Get in the room 2. Introduce yourself like an adult 3. Be memorable (not loud) 4. Do something useful / give value 5. Follow up 6. Water the relationship (don't only show up when you want something) And I finish with 3 questions you should ask before you request a favour or intro: 1. Have I added value first? 2. If roles were reversed, would it feel fair? 3. Am I asking for access… or trying to skip the work? If you want bigger opportunities, better connections, and doors opening faster… Get in the f*cking room.

This week I'm talking about something most people in my position won't admit: Business can be HARD. And the start of 2026 has been hard for me too; less traction, fewer sales, fewer sign-ups than I want. So, instead of pretending everything's perfect, I'm telling you what I think is actually happening in the market right now… and what I believe wins this year. In this episode, I cover: ➡️ Why 2026 feels harder: more noise, less attention, higher expectations, sceptical buyers. ➡️ Why people are slower to trust but faster to reject (and why "not right now" is everywhere). ➡️ The trap of confusing output with progress (AI makes it easier to produce… not necessarily to grow). ➡️ My key question for every decision this year: "Does this make the business calmer or more complicated?" ➡️ What wins in 2026: clarity over volume, reliability over novelty, calm invites, clear next steps, confidence without hype. ➡️ The trust line: how to remove distance, stop hiding behind brands/tools, and build certainty faster. ➡️ Why great people are gold dust and why energy might be your biggest advantage in a tired, robotic world. If you're an established business owner and it feels like people are hesitating more, trusting less, and it's getting harder to stand out… This episode will help you simplify, sharpen, and stop doing sh*t that burns energy without building trust. Your move: Where do people hesitate signing up with you? Where are you being vague? What feels messy? And what would remove doubt fastest? 👇 Subscribe + drop a comment with your biggest insight.
