Wondered what it feels like to jump out of a plane at 12,000 feet? 🪂

I’m James Sweeney, it’s lovely to meet you! 

Growing up in the Swansea valleys, I’m incredibly passionate about people - whether it’s our culture, background, passions or the ways in which we process and understand the world around us, it’s something that absolutely fascinates me 🌍

Having gone through life as somebody with a stutter, in addition to facing troubles with my physical and mental health, one of my biggest aspirations in life is to help shape a community in which I can help as many people as possible. 

I’m a very keen writer, starting my own blog page in 2018, called Sweeney’s Blogs, where I shine a spotlight on the topics that genuinely mean something to each and every one of us as people. The page has become a key part of my life, and is one of the reasons how I found out about LinkedIn too, as it goes ✍️

I run a weekly series here called Sweeney’s Song of the Week. For these posts, I shout out some incredible people, mixing in my love for music and making the world a better place at the same time. 

In October 2018, I jumped out of a plane at 12,000 feet raising over £900 for The Alzheimer’s Society, which has to be one of the best (and scariest!) experiences of my life 🪂

Do you want to join me on my journey! Be sure to drop me a request and a message, I’d love a chat. 

Thanks for checking out my profile and I hope you have a cracking day 👋

Changemaker

Ever felt like you’re doing everything right in your career, but still on the edge of burnout?

Yeah, me too.

I’m Nia. I'm a creator and speaker helping young professionals build fulfilling, sustainable careers without losing themselves in the process.

Over the past 3 years, I’ve worked across the marketing world, from managing high-profile personal brands agency-side to shaping content strategies in-house. That experience taught me a lot about ambition, burnout, and the messy middle we don’t talk about enough.

So I started sharing it.

In 2022, I began posting on LinkedIn. Not as an expert, but as someone figuring it out in real time.
And somewhere along the way, 20,000+ people decided to come along for the ride.

Since then, I’ve been:

🏆 Awarded Best Breakthrough Marketer (2024) by Passionfruit
✨ Named one of Alt Marketing School’s Top 100 Marketers To Watch (2024)
💬 Featured by Girls In Marketing as a Top Marketer To Follow and as a course contributor (Laying The Foundations for Career & Marketing Success)

Now I help my audience:

→ create habits that actually last
→ rethink success beyond hustle and burnout
→ build careers that align with who they are, not just what they do

If you’re a brand looking to reach ambitious Gen Z professionals, or you're searching for an authentic, relatable voice on career growth and mindset, let’s talk.

Because the best career advice comes from someone still figuring it out 💭
