The SEO Mindset Podcast: Recent Episodes

Sarah & Tazmin

The SEO Mindset is a weekly podcast that gives you actionable, personal growth and development tips, guidance and advice, to help you to optimise your SEO career and not just the algorithms.

The podcast is dedicated to talking about important topics that aren't often spoken about in the industry such as imposter syndrome, burnout, anxiety, self awareness etc. Sarah and Tazmin, along with their special guests highlight important topics, share own experiences as well as giving actionable solutions. Basically we have open, honest and frank conversations to help others in the industry.

Each week we cover topics specific to careers in the SEO industry but also broader topics. We will help you to not only build your inner confidence but to also thrive in your career.

Your hosts are Mindset Coach Tazmin Suleman and SEO Manager Sarah McDowell, who between them have over 20 years experience working in the industry.

Wouldn’t it be wonderful if there was a cure for imposter syndrome?

We all have to deal with it - it sneaks up time and time again.

And the funny thing is, how can you be an imposter to something that you’ve been invited to?

Most of the times we struggle with it, we’ve been invited to contribute or definitely have a right to be there.

This week I have Dhea Mohammed joining me on the podcast to talk about this very topic.

She shares how it shows up for her, when she realised it was a thing, what she has learned about imposter syndrome, and of course, practical tips you can implement to help you navigate it better.

About Dhea

Dhea Mohammed is a full time digital marketer. She grew up hanging out after school in my parents' marketing agency in Indonesia. She didn’t realise it then, but Dhea was absorbing the foundations of the industry like a sponge. She currently works as Paid Search and Paid Social Executive, and Data & Analytics Lead at Forrest Digital. Outside of work, she volunteers with Teesside Mind and creates content exploring what it means to truly live and enjoy your days, a personal development project close to her heart.

Remote working sounds like a dream: work for any company, anywhere in the world and if you're lucky, they'll even fly you out on work trips.

Something that is not often spoken about is the transition into different workplace cultures, depending on where in the world a company is based, especially if its different from your own background.

This week, I'm joined by two guests Roxana Stingu, and Laura Iancu. They join me to reflect on their own experiences, lost in translation moments, and what it actually takes to adapt to a new culture without losing yourself in the process.

Struggling to navigate this in your own career? Stick around we've got practical tips and strategies you can put into action straight away.

She’s also a mentor, something she genuinely loves, helping others find their confidence, voice, and place in the industry. Born in Romania and shaped by life across the UK, China and Europe, Laura brings an international lens to sustainability, search, accessibility, and inclusive communication.

Well, welcome to season 18 (can’t quite believe that) and we’re changing the main theme of our podcast… Joking! Please don’t be alarmed.

To kick this new season off, we’re talking about how there’s no such thing as a linear career path, and I wanted to start with some strong evidence.

My examples from those famous folk shows how career paths can change and pivot, and that is exactly what me and Tazmin will be getting into.

We’ll be giving examples from our own career paths. Sarah actually studied dance at university. How did she get from there to being a podcast host, producer and marketing consultant? Well you’ll have to listen to this week’s episode!

The questions we type into Google say more about us than the things we say out loud, and this is certainly true on sensitive topics such as stress and burnout.

Search data shows us what people are looking for, what they’re worried about, what they’re struggling with, and how our behaviour is shifting in ways we don’t always notice.

In this episode Steve Paine and Tazmin talk about what this data reveals about human psychology. They discuss the changing information habits, and what two decades of search data tells us about how work, attention, and wellbeing have evolved.

About Steve

Steve is the English-language marketing manager, technical and copy editor at SISTRIX and he oversees the end-end process for all of the knowledge and data journalism content. “We use a journalistic approach to crafting useful, high-quality stories from our data.” Steve has a very long history in online content dating back to before the web was born.

Let's talk about luck.

Is it random? Something that happens to other people, at the right time, in the right place.

Or is it something we can actively influence through how we show up, the decisions we make, and the way we move through our careers?

In this episode, Tazmin is joined by Mel Barfield who explains why it is the latter and what we can do to be 'more lucky'.

We're coming to the halfway point of the year making it the perfect moment to pause and ask: where did the first six months go?

In this bonus episode, Tazmin gets honest about that familiar feeling of falling behind on January's big intentions, and shares exactly what she's doing about it.

Rather than panicking about the six months ahead, Tazmin walks through her own 90-day reset, a more tangible alternative to the daunting "rest of the year" mindset.

Tazmin also shares why she's tackling her easiest wins first to build momentum, the accountability system she's put in place, about choosing persistence over consistency.

It's a practical pep talk for anyone feeling like they've lost time this year, followed by a republished episode on the 10 ways to progress toward career success to help you carry that momentum forward.

AI is quietly reshaping burnout, not by reducing workload but by increasing mental load, decision fatigue, and the pressure to constantly optimise.

In this week's episode Tazmin explores how efficiency leads to exhaustion, and what burnout in the age of AI looks like.

She unpacks the hidden patterns behind “AI-related burnout,” and shares practical ways to use AI without losing boundaries, clarity, or connection to your own judgement.

Nearly 40% of discrimination cases are never reported.

Employee claims of discrimination hit a record high in 2024 (the highest level in nine years of tracking) - and that's just what gets reported.

45% of workers aren't even aware their company has an anti-discrimination policy.

Let some of those numbers sink in...

This week on the podcast I am joined by Laura Iancu, founder of Searchpedia, the SEO Gal at Octopus Energy, and a proud member of Women in Tech SEO & NDs in SEO.

She refers to herself as a search activist, meaning she doesn’t just talk about making search better, fairer, and more useful, she walks the walk.

We talk about why representation and inclusion matters both online and in the workplace. She shares what frustrates her most, the impact it has in the workplace and how community plays an important role.

She also shares practical tips for people who feel excluded and how we can all be better allies.

As this is such a big topic, I have decided to do a part one and part two.

This is part one of the conversation, where me and Laura have a heart to heart and put some worlds to right.

We discuss so many different topics including, the problem with “default user" design, whether its lack of awareness or money constraints that get in the way, being aware of how our own background and experiences can give us biases, how exclusion shows up in the workplace and so much more.

Are you aware of your own biases?

You judge someone who picks mayo over ketchup on their chips. You look on in disbelief when people add milk to their coffee, because everyone knows the only way to drink it is black.

Joking aside, this week we're talking about the biases that exist in the SEO industry.

I'm joined by Lydia Fox, Head of SEO at Serpify, who specialises in off-page strategies for YMYL clients, helping brands build authority, trust, and sustainable search growth.

Lydia speaks openly about the times her opinion hasn't been asked for or respected, and the judgement she's faced simply for focusing on off-page SEO. We get into how that kind of bias can feed imposter syndrome, the personal toll it takes, and the strategies she's developed for dealing with it and refusing to be put in a box.

About Lydia

Lydia Fox is the Head of SEO at Serpify focused on offpage strategies for YMYL clients that helps brands build authority, trust, and sustainable search growth. She focuses on strategies that drive conversions, not just traffic, using EEAT-led link building, digital PR, and long-term brand development to create real commercial impact. Lydia takes a brand-first approach to SEO, helping businesses position themselves as credible, recognisable, and trustworthy in both Google’s eyes and their customers’.

AI was supposed to save us time.

So why do so many of us feel more overwhelmed than ever?

We use AI to answer questions, speed up workflows, and handle the tasks we find dull or time-consuming. Is it actually increasing our efficiency, or just quietly reshaping our ability to think, connect, and build skills.

This week, we have such a treat for you.

Last week was brightonSEO, and we teamed up with our buddy Jack and the Search With Candour podcast to do our usual LIVE podcast the night before the conference kicked off.

The beauty of a LIVE podcast is that the conversation was recorded, meaning if you couldn’t attend you don’t miss out, this episode features the full live conversation plus the Q&A session with the audience, so you get the complete experience from wherever you're listening.

What if every piece of content you've pushed out to "stay visible" has actually been quietly costing you, not in reach, but in trust? In yourself, and in the people you're trying to reach.

There's a pressure most creators know intimately but rarely name out loud: the pull to make content that performs rather than content that actually sounds like you. This episode explores this very topic and asks what it's really costing us.

Erin Simmons joins the show to explore the hidden erosion that happens when we optimise ourselves out of our own voice, and why community (not better strategy) might be the most powerful way back.

About Erin

Erin is Managing Director at the Women in Tech SEO community—focused on maintaining safe, inclusive, and helpful spaces. With 15+ years in marketing and analytics, they now focus on better understanding people and connecting them to the relationships and resources that support them most.

April is Stress Awareness Month and this episode challenges the idea that stress is something we simply have to put up with.

Stress Awareness Month is led by the Stress Management Society and exists to help people understand stress better, talk about it more openly, and manage it in ways that genuinely support their wellbeing.

This year's theme is #BeTheChange, a powerful call to personal agency, action, and transformation, rooted in the principles of Self-Efficacy, Neuroplasticity, and Relational Connection.

Because change doesn't happen by accident. It happens when we take ownership through small, consistent actions, shifting the way we think, and building real, meaningful connections. Do that, and you don't just cope with stress. You completely transform how you experience it.

How does constant pressure and demands impact our personal and work life? We have Fleur Peacock on the podcast to discuss this very topic.

The average person receives 146 phone notifications daily, which translates to one notification every ten minutes.

It’s no wonder we struggle to switch off, and feel constantly under pressure.

Sarah and Fleur talk about the chaos of demands on people today, how it impacts our nervous system and overall performance in the workplace. Make sure to stick around to the end where she shares practical strategies you can implement today, to get better control of the chaos.

About Fleur

After 14 years in the fitness industry, moving countries, and navigating breast cancer, Fleur's work was never about reinventing herself. It was about coming home to who she'd always been.

MoreMoxie is a body of work expressed through speaking, retreats, and embodied experiences, rooted in courage, connection, and the belief that after survival, something truer and more spacious becomes possible.

This isn’t about routines or mindset hacks. It’s about reconnecting with your body, your nervous system, and your voice, so you can live and lead in ways that actually fit. Fleur create spaces where people can step out of survival mode and rebuild their lives and identities with honesty, depth, and room for joy.

Shaped by lived experience as much as training, my work is real, embodied, and human. Expect warmth, truth, the occasional swear word, and a deep obsession for the nervous system. This is serious work but it’s allowed to be joyful.

"When thinking about ethical marketing, I basically boil it down to the fact that the people that we are marketing to are human beings, and they're worthy of respect and care."

Today, we’re joined by Leah Hart and diving into sustainable marketing, what it really means, why it matters, and how businesses can win customers while doing good for the world.

About Leah:

Leah is a sustainability nerd and digital marketer with nearly a decade of experience in everything from social media management and email marketing to SEO and analytics. She thinks the best marketing strategies are holistic ones and that "this is the way we've always done it" is the worst reason for doing anything. Outside of work, she's an avid hiker and birdwatcher. She also enjoys traveling the world in search of the best vegan junk food.

In a world where we're constantly encouraged to be visible and build a digital brand (even by us), what if there's another way?

What if you simply don't want to, or don't feel comfortable putting yourself out there?

In this episode, Tazmin is joined by Veruska Anconitano, a global growth and international expansion consultant who has built a thriving business without relying on personal branding or constant visibility. She shares how she did it and (more importantly) why it works.

She speaks multiple languages, holds a Master’s in Data Science, and has an academic grounding in sociology, sociolinguistics, and AI (LLMs), which gives her the ability to translate human behavior into actionable, scalable growth strategies.She's technical and loves working with dev teams: analyzing, diagnosing, and solving SEO and localization issues, addressing workflow and tooling inefficiencies, and building automation pipelines. She codes in multiple languages (💕 Python) and feel just as comfortable building workflows or auditing code-heavy international sites as she does leading cross-functional global teams.

This episode comes with a trigger warning. We talk about alcoholism, plus mental and physical abuse (which does involve a child), so listener discretion is advised.

We can’t always avoid life’s curveballs, but we can prepare ourselves to handle them with resilience and clarity.

This week, Sangeeta joins Sarah to talk about navigating life’s inevitable challenges. She opens up about her own personal experiences, what threw her off course, how she coped, and the steps she took to get back on track. Together, they explore how to get comfortable with discomfort and share practical strategies to help you move forward when life doesn’t go as planned.

About Sangeeta:

Sangeeta Pillai is an activist, podcaster, writer & speaker. She is the creator of the South Asian feminist platform Soul Sutras, has won many awards for her Masala Podcast and been featured in the press a lot. What keeps Sangeeta going? The hundreds of messages I get from my sisters who tell me that my work “changed their life”.

In this episode, we’re unpacking the UK Supreme Court’s ruling that defines “woman” based on biological sex and why that’s deeply harmful to the trans community. We’ll explore how this decision erases trans identities, threatens legal protections, and reverses hard-won progress.

We’ll share my thoughts on why trans rights are human rights, and why true equality means standing with our trans siblings. Finally, we’ll talk about how to show up in the workplace, from respecting pronouns to challenging transphobia and creating inclusive spaces. This isn’t just about policy, it’s about people. Let’s talk about what real support looks like.

This week we’re doing things a little differently…

On Wednesday 9th April, the night before brightonSEO, we did a LIVE podcast recording, which was a collaboration with our dear friend, Jack Chambers-Ward, who hosts the Search with Candour podcast.

That’s right, we recorded an episode in front a live audience, and the topic was all about personal branding.

LIVE Podcast Sponsors

Shoutout to our headline sponsor, SISTRIX, who provided us with insightful data on the topic of personal branding, which helped us to shape the episode and conversation on the night.

Also thanks to our food sponsor Majestic and drink sponsor Sitebulb. The event isn’t possible without the support of our wonderful sponsors, so huge thank you!

Perimenopause is a reality for millions of people, yet it’s still a taboo topic in many workplaces. In this episode, Sarah sits down with Jojo to talk about her personal experience - from the moment she knew, to how it impacts her job, and the ways she manages her symptoms.

We’ll dive into why this conversation matters, how menopause is becoming more prevalent in the workforce, and why it’s time for employers to step up. Plus, we’re highlighting the Menopause Workplace Pledge, a movement pushing for better workplace support (link in the show notes).

We cover:

  • How she knew she had perimenopause
  • Her feelings about having perimenopause
  • How it shows up for her at work
  • How she manages symptoms

About Jojo:

Jojo is Marketing Manager at Sitebulb. She has 15 years' experience in content and SEO, with 10 of those agency-side. Jojo works closely with the SEO community, collaborating on webinars, articles, and training content that helps to upskill SEOs.

This is part 2 of our series on setting yourself up for success in 2025. In part 1, we talked about the WHAT—turning your goals into a strategy and plan. Now that you know what to do, it’s time to dive into the HOW.

We’re exploring how to create space in your life to perform at your best, stay focused, and keep motivated (though my take on motivation might be a little controversial).

This week we have a special episode for you. It's the recording of The Live Podcast we recorded a few weeks ago at Brighton.

Sarah and I, along with our co-host, Jack Chambers-Ward talked all about how to Career Plan without Overwhelming Yourself.

We talked about our experiences of career planning, what has worked for us, and what hasn't, and shared actionable tips aimed at making career planning easier. There was also a live Q&A with the audience, and as is now the way at our events, were super authentic, and supportive of each other.

It is longer than usual, so grab a drink, get cosy, and enjoy!

We do a recap of the live podcast we did in April 2024, where the topic was all about being authentically (and unapologetically) you.

Tazmin and Sarah were joined by a special guest, Willow Mack, Senior Vice President of STAT Search Analytics, as unfortunately Jack couldn't attend this time - he decided to attend a wedding instead (we know, talk about priorities...)

We review the live podcast with Jack, and get his viewpoint on being authentically himself, and how he overcomes the obstacles and challenges that he faces.

About Jack:

Jack is an SEO Specialist with 5 years of experience, and a podcast host and producer with more than 10 years of experience.Alongside Search with Candour, he also hosts, edits & produces the popular movie podcast Sequelisers, all about fixing bad film sequels.He’s also a published writer with previous work including the 300+ page graphic novel D-Day: Storming Fortress Europe (published by Osprey in 2020 and British Showcase Vol. 1 (published Markosia Enterprises in 2013).

About Michelle:

Throughout her career, Michelle has focused on making meaningful connections at a human level between companies and individuals. As she delved deeper into the realm of psychology to improve marketing efforts, Michelle discovered in herself a passionate advocate for mental health. She’s deeply empathetic toward the impact of marketing and advertising on the emotional health of customers and made it her mission to campaign for the personal wellness of others and improve everyone’s understanding of the role marketing plays in the mental health of a society.

In her current role at Feelalytics, she’s able to advocate for mental health on a large scale. Michelle recognizes that everyone processes events and emotions differently. By considering people’s varying levels of emotional development, she creates environments where everyone can express themselves authentically.

This is a special bonus episode! Tazmin and Sarah teamed up with Jack from Search with Candour to do a live podcast the night before brightonSEO.

So, instead of recording in our bedrooms*, we recorded a podcast in front of a live audience. The audience was part of the show, as they asked questions and shared their own experiences and tips. The topic was about how to deal with anxiety at conferences, for both speakers and attendees.

The fabulous people at Silicon Brighton also live streamed via their YouTube channel, which you can watch on demand.

The event was sponsored by Sistrix and Captivate, organised and supported by Silicon Brighton and the beautiful venue was Projects The Lanes.

*well, this is definitely the case for Sarah anyway...
