About This Podcast
Build Your Edge is for ambitious people in tech who want to keep growing in how they think, lead, and deliver. Each week, Jeremy Burns talks with people who’ve built their edge: leaders, founders, creators, and coaches who’ve done the work, learned the hard lessons, and come away sharper. Every episode delivers something you can use straight away; a mindset shift, a proven strategy, or a practical tool to help you lead better, move faster, and make an impact. The show runs on three simple principles: • Audience first – every guest brings real value, not self-promotion. • Clarity and focus – one clear topic, explored in depth. • Action over talk – every episode comes with a free digital download so you can put what you’ve learned into practice. If you’re serious about levelling up in your work and career, Build Your Edge will show you how.
