Episode 47: Owning who you are and dispelling the single story in your industry and beyond
If you ever find yourself thinking or saying out loud that you aren't a 'proper business owner' or if you don't feel like 'an entrepreneur' this episode has been created for you.
There are so many ways that outside forces are dictating how we see ourselves, the stories we tell ourselves and how we then show-up for ourselves and others.
It's not enough to say you can do things differently, I'm here to help you actually do it and that's about what you're doing, how you're doing it and also how you FEEL about it.
This episode will help you to start to shift the way you see yourself so that you can step into true reimagining.

The rulebook has changed for us all and using your voice has taken a whole new level of importance, focus and energy.
In the wake of George Floyd, Black Lives Matter and what I am calling the awakening and uprising you will be feeling the pull at your coat tails to use your voice. Maybe it has felt like pressure and expectation or maybe it has been a fire in your belly and your soul is bursting to say all the things you didn't feel able to say before.
Either way the tide has changed and as a Creative Coach who is committed to helping you to show-up wholeheartedly, to find your voice, tell your story, own your magic and shine your light, I am here for this and you.

There's always so much online about being yourself but not only is the general rhetoric lacking in nuance, you’ll also find that no-one explains what it looks like in reality or what it even means, especially when your response is, ‘I don't know who I am’. In this episode, I'm helping you to break that down.

Tamu Thomas (@livethreesixty) and I are back with our Wellness is Wellth collaboration! This time its a supper club!
The response to the inaugural Wellness is Wellth event at Thomson Reuters in January this year was so powerful we have not been able to stop thinking about it.
Each week since 18th January 2019 we have discussed or mentioned Wellness is Wellth. Each conversation or mention made us feel alive and safe to delve deeper into our money stories cultivating a friendly relationship that is steadily becoming closer and healthier.
We have agreed that we can no longer ignore the nudges encouraging us to make Wellness is Wellth a living breathing entity, so here we are!
We started in the heart of the UK's financial district and have decided take Wellness is Wellth home bringing abundance to your door with a supperclub in the beautiful homely setting of Kindred Members club in Hammersmith, London.

Episode 14: Vitiligo, Being Seen + Using Your Voice with Aisha Muhammad
Episode 14!!! It’s the season finale and we’re most certainly going out with a very special episode.
Why she’s amazing:
Aisha is a 20-something woman living in London, having developed vitiligo in childhood she featured in the BBC documentary ‘Misfits Like Us’ which aired earlier this year. In this episode she talks about her journey to go from dreaming about going make-up free and changing the perception and visibility of vitiligo and actually doing it. I was so excited to speak to Aisha for the podcast and to share her heart-warming story with you.
