What Surviving Wildlife Teaches You About Business

The Jungle vs. The Boardroom

The Beyond the Boardroom Podcast with Aleksandra King swaps the safety of corporate spin for survival-level honesty. In this episode, Aleksandra sits down with Joe Phillips—the self-described “James Bond of the Jungle”—to compare facing down a charging buffalo with facing Lord Sugar in the boardroom. From wildlife scares to reality-TV pressure, Joe shows how adventure, fitness, and conservation shaped his mindset long before the cameras rolled.

• Safari vs The Apprentice: why the wild made the boardroom feel tame

• Wild encounters: the animal that made Joe faint and his closest calls with danger

• Fan culture, unfiltered: the strangest gifts he’s received (yes… feet)

• Survival → success: turning adventure, fitness, and conservation into career fuel

• Behind the edit: what reality TV doesn’t show about pressure and performance

Hilarious, jaw-dropping, and disarmingly honest—this is the story of how real danger builds real confidence. Aleksandra’s fearless, direct style pulls out the mindset shifts that help you stay calm under pressure, whether you’re on a savannah or in a boardroom.

Aleksandra King is a female podcast host breaking the mould—brave, unapologetic, and uncompromising. Her conversations cut deeper than the headline and past the edit. If you’ve searched for podcasts about confidence, resilience, or unapologetic success—you’re in the right place.
