BEHIND THE MIC

IAN DAWSON MACKAY

SHOW HOST

Ian

I’m a podcaster on a mission to uncover real strategies, actionable tips, and transformative mindsets from the most inspiring people I can find. Every guest brings their own story and wisdom — and I’m here to ask the questions, learn alongside my listeners, and apply these lessons in my own life.

I don’t claim to be an expert — I’m a student of life who’s willing to test every idea shared. My journey’s been full of ups, downs, awkward moments, and some unexpected wins. Living with OCD, I know what it feels like to wrestle with overwhelm, depression, and shyness. When I couldn’t find a source of real, no-fluff advice… I decided to create one.

Born in the ’80s and a proud Teuchter now based in the UK, I’ve got a love for Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, 5-a-side football, and of course — podcasting. Life’s also handed me a few odd stories along the way… like accidentally setting my foot on fire while reading or playing midwife to a sheep. True story.

If you’re ready to ditch mediocrity, get unstuck, and level up your life — welcome to the journey.
