not a straight line

著者: Peter Daly-Dickson
  • サマリー

  • Every Wednesday, join your host, actor, producer, and former tech entrepreneur Peter Daly-Dickson, for a deep dive into the zig zag journeys through the lives of entrepreneurs and artists. And entrepreneurial artists! Together, we want to shatter the myth that it's ever too late to be who you want to be, and give you hope, inspiration and self-belief that the journey from where you are to where you want to get to is possible. It's just not a straight line! NEW: Thursday through Tuesday, tune in for daily bite-sized episodes where Peter shares his raw, unfiltered thoughts on intuitive action, personal growth, and the art of articulating who you are. Join him for this [initial 30-day] experiment in real-time self-discovery as he navigates his own non-straight line journey - exploring everything from creative practices and non-negotiable commitments to human design and the power of daily ritual. About your host: After 30+ years working first as an actor and then a career in IT culminating as the CEO of a software company, I walked away from everything at the end of 2021 close to burnout and in a poor state of mental health. I ended up driving luxury cars around the UK, delivering them to dealerships and customers, and relished the space it gave me to think and simply BE. 2.5 years later I returned to the 22 year old Pete, sitting on the top deck of a bus wondering what his life would be like if he went to drama school, and reestablished myself in a creative career as an actor and producer. Oh, and as a podcast host too!

  • The Poetic Researcher || The Brand Translator || The Question Curator with Morgan Burns
    2025/04/09

    Morgan Burns is a fractional brand leader who transforms businesses by uncovering their authentic stories and translating them into powerful brand frameworks. With deep roots in the arts—studying poetry, film, dance, and music—Morgan brings a uniquely creative lens to business challenges. Her unconventional approach stems from a childhood immersed in deep conversations about cultural narratives guided by her father, a constitutional lawyer, and mother, a mental health counselor.

    Through her career, Morgan discovered her gift for connecting with both highly technical engineering professionals and creative entrepreneurs. She excels at making complex ideas accessible, explaining that "I don't need to understand how the science works. I just need to be able to express it to other people who also don't understand how the science works." This talent for translation has made her invaluable to clients across diverse industries, from manufacturing to music.

    As the founder of Purple Unicorn Agency, Morgan conducts in-depth qualitative research with leaders, employees, and customers to craft brand narratives that resonate deeply. Her process often brings relief to executives who finally feel heard and understood. "I write your business's poem," she explains, creating frameworks that help clients naturally understand their next strategic steps.

    Morgan's neurodivergent perspective allows her to ask the questions others won't, cutting through corporate buzzwords to uncover authentic values. Her ability to hold space for vulnerable conversations has earned her a reputation for transformative work, with clients joking that her sessions are "worse than therapy" but incredibly effective.

    Today, Morgan balances her brand consulting with advocating for neurodiversity in the workplace and supporting independent artists. Her mission remains constant: helping people live better lives by creating businesses that honor humanity while achieving commercial success.
