Hilary & Kirsten reached out to me on instagram to come on the podcast & wanted to discuss building a new brand with your best friend which really caught my attention!

Fleuri was born in the heart of Los Angeles by Hilary & Kirsten who worked together at the same fashion company. One had a knack for business while the other was skilled in design, but their shared passion was collecting timeless jewellery pieces.

Katie and I went to uni together to study fashion retail buying but our careers have gone in different directions! I thought it would be fun to speak to Katie and share her story about how she left buying and transferred to a completely different role! Katie is actually living in Germany at the moment as she works for a large retailer out there (we can’t name it otherwise she has to fill in loads of boring paperwork and tbh she cba!) haha!

Her stories that she shares in this episode are so honest & I’m super grateful to her for that! I know that whenever she says ‘for example’ that its actually something that she’s had to do for a wacky boss or client!

Vanessa and I met online, she’s a content creator for Instagram, YouTube & TikTok! YouTube is her priority day to day but in this episode we really focus in on TikTok because it’s growing SO quickly!

This solo episode is me reading my article that was featured in The Delicate Rebellion magazine! I was incredibly excited when Hannah asked me to write this in my natural tone of voice and keeping it light hearted!

This episode of the podcast is slightly different to the rest of them - it’s the first one I’ve ever recorded with the addition of alcohol for one! But also Emma is one of my closest friends and we speak every hour of the day about food, cats, instagram & money!

I’m sure lots of you already know, follow & love Olivia Rose The Label; her brand has grown so quickly & has a serious cult following online.

Olivia hand makes everything from her studio in Scotland after being inspired to sew by her grandma Beryl. Fast forward a few years and she has to close her shop on a regular basis due to it being so popular!

Olivia was approached by a buyer in Selfridges & asked me to accompany her to the meeting & it was a roaring success! We’ve stayed in touch since and absolutely loved interviewing her

It took me circa 4 seconds to know who I wanted to discuss the topic of social injustice with on the podcast - Rhea Cartwright

Rhea & I met last year for a 1-1 session making a plan on how she was going to leave her 9-5 … fast forward a year and she’s writing for publications such as Refinery29 & Dazed

Rhea was so kind to make herself available at short notice to discuss the topic in detail; she shares her views on how the fashion industry has reacted to the death of George Floyd and the topic of racism which has been an issue in the industry for years.

As alot of my previous guests, Katie and I met on instagram and hit it off straight away in the DM’s!

She is a copywriter helping fashion and beauty brands to succeed by getting their content spot on.

Katie began her career in fashion journalism and whilst it was fun attending press days and eating tiny fashion week canapés, she was itching to get out and explore the world, so packed in the 9-5 and went to live in the rainforests of borneo for a bit.

Fran & I have followed each other on insta for months and share alot of the same clients so we thought it would be a good idea to have a chat on the podcast about all things pattern cutting!

Kristabel is a style-obsessed, food-loving Londoner. She started the blog ‘I Want You To Know’ during her Fashion Knitwear degree in 2008.

Fast-forward over ten years and it’s evolved into a hub of eclectic fashion, travel and lifestyle content

Kira is a creative mindset and money coach, podcaster and speaker. After working as a freelance stylist for Dazed, Paul Smith, Asos & ES Magazine, she specialises in helping fashion stylists crippled with self-doubt and fear grow their business and connect with clients that excite them!

Eva and Bory are the co-founders of online marketplace Kool & Konscious & I first met them at The Drapers Sustainable Fashion Conference

KK aims to eliminate the environmental and moral footprint of the fashion industry by providing access to the world’s largest selection of sustainable and ethically sourced products gathered in a well-curated, operationally excellent and technologically advanced marketplace.

A fashion-tech entrepreneur passionate to eliminate the environmental and moral footprint of the fashion industry through facilitating the transition towards a circular fashion economy.

Stephanie is the first person I connected with once I took the leap into consulting and asked to be a guest on her podcast - I was genuiinely shocked when she said yes because her guests have been INSANE! (The founder of Lulu Lemon & the founder of AntiBad to name a few!)

If I were to create a list of FAQ’s that I get asked on a regular basis - ‘are FB ads a good idea?’ is definitely up there!

Carly and I met a couple of years ago through mutual Instagram friends - she’s an award winning Facebook and Instagram marketer and advertising strategist with over 10 years’ experience in the communications industry.

Sheena is one of my previous clients and straight from the discovery call, I knew I’d get her on the podcast as her story is so inspiring! She’s incredibly hard working and her passion for the business is unshakeable.

After studying business at uni and starting a career in fashion styling, Sheen slipped a disk. As a self confessed hyperactive woman, her mind had to be kept active so she started selling customised clothing on Depop

I love the way Sheen approaches things with her positive energy and throws her 100% into everything she does, I know you’ll find her inspiring!

Amy operates Aim Athleisure Ltd which is in it’s 4th financial year alongside her sampling studio - Studio 54

After launching her own business, she realised the gap in the market at how hard it is to get your product from paper into production so decided to create her own sample room in the UK

Amy has a background in project management which have some great transferable skills into production & running a sampling facility as there’s so many different stages to bring together all at once - very similar to a house build!
