From Rita Ora to Richard Branson, Bartlett has interviewed some of the world’s biggest celebrities on his podcast, The Diary of a CEO.
Many Australians couldn’t pick him out in a crowd, but Steven Bartlett has interviewed some of the world’s biggest celebrities, CEOs and thinkers. Michael Pollan, Rita Ora, Richard Branson, Deepak Chopra and more have sat across from Bartlett on his podcast,. And like his famous guests, the 31-year-old British-Nigerian has many lessons of his own to share.
It would seem this mindset has been key to the podcast’s success, where even the most hardened of business people open up about everything from childhood trauma to their sex lives. “It’s an experiment I ran because it did feel scary when I launched the podcast, but I started talking about the most vulnerable things in my life and the sense of connection I got from that validated my hypothesis,” he says.
“I hear this over and over again from entrepreneurs – that there’s this resistance you encounter from your friendship group trying to get you to fall back in line,” he says.“That creates a real sense of isolation, but it also creates a huge amount of uncertainty because you fundamentally don’t know what life is at 18. So, you’re taking a bet with very little evidence, and you’re removing yourself from the herd, which is difficult.
Bartlett, by his own account, lives a very busy life. Even his downtime is optimised and monitored for self-improvement. He loves his Whoop, a wearable device that tracks your biometric data. He is an enthusiastic promoter of Huel, a meal-replacement drink he turns to when there’s no time to eat.
