In this episode, the girls are joined by the incredible Laura Liles, founder of the beloved fashion brands Kinga Csilla and Ciao Ciao Vacation. As a mother of two and a creative powerhouse, Laura shares her journey of building a brand that is instantly recognisable and has stood the test of time. She dives deep into the realities of running your own business, the challenges she’s faced along the way, and the pivotal moments that shaped her success. Tune in as we explore how she balances motherhood with entrepreneurship, her inspiring advice for aspiring business owners, and what's next for her iconic brands.

Before diving into the chat with Laura, the girls catch up on all things Christmas (get ready for our upcoming Christmas episode!) and gripes with ugly Christmas Crackers (these to the rescue though!!) and yet another round of gastro sweeping through our house.
