Show Notes:
In this follow-up episode of People Make Pyllon, Paul reconnects with long-time athlete and coach James Stewart for another rich and honest conversation.
From managing global travel and family life to balancing doctoral study, work, training and writing, James brings his usual clarity and candor to the table. They dive into how he structures his day, why routine matters more than motivation, and how AI might reshape the future of coaching, work, and even creativity.
There’s a bigger conversation about what it means to stay engaged with the process  in running, in work, and in life.
This is a thoughtful, practical episode for anyone who’s juggling multiple commitments and still trying to find meaning in their running.

In this episode:


How James uses structure and self-discipline to keep life on track


The fine balance between routine and experimentation


Why AI won’t replace coaches, and how it could actually make them better


The joy of music and creativity outside of outcomes


Why personal ownership is at the heart of leadership


Running as a mirror for how we live, lead and adapt
