E075: What Happens When Experience Disappears with Mark McBride-Wright and T.A. Thompson

In this episode of The SAFE Leader Podcast, Mark McBride-Wright speaks with dystopian fiction writer T.A. Thompson about risk, experience, decision-making and what happens when the knowledge we rely on disappears. Drawing on more than a decade in commercial insurance, T.A. explores how a worst-case-scenario mindset shaped his writing, why people often fail to listen to those with more experience, and what can be lost when knowledge is not passed between generations. The conversation also touches on creativity, feedback, self-doubt, persistence and the challenge of balancing a corporate career with the ambition to build something of your own.
