#13 Mastering Your Craft: Lee McKenzie

It's Good To Walk - A podcast by Ed Jackson

Todays guest is Lee McKenzie. Lee is a highly respected broadcast journalist and presenter who has covered some of the biggest news and sports events of recent times. I think that everyone is born with a gift, some people are lucky enough to discover that gift in their life time some even luckier to align their life with it at a young age, it’s fair to say that Lee found her gift pretty early. She started her career as a written journalist at just the age of 15 and set off on a very steep trajectory, becoming the youngest person in the UK to ever present the news at just 22 years old. Lee has gone on to have an amazing career both in TV and written journalism and is still at the peak of her powers having covered just about every major event in the British sporting calendar this year alone. She’s also just finished her first book. So given all of that - when I turned up to my first ever live game working in front of the camera for channel 4, shaking in my boots, terrified of messing things up on national television, it was a great relief to have Lees calming hand steering the ship. From that day Lee has been my biggest mentor in the new world of broadcasting I’ve found myself in, and I couldn’t of wished for a better one. Not just an infinite well of knowledge but a great person to.We talk about:IdentityThe professional approachHow to ask questionsMaintaining balanceSearching for purpose\& loads moreEnjoy!SocialsInst: @leemckenzietvTwi: @LeeMcKenzieTVInside F1: https://amzn.eu/d/hI7q66eThanks as always to our sponsors The Coaching Academy, visit www.the-coaching-academy.com to find out if a career as a life coach could be for you.
