April 12, 2022The Ups & Downs of Starting Our New Business and Things We’ve Done Differently The Second Time Around
We received the following email from a listener and recored an episode all about starting a second business:

"Hey Al + Imo, I was thinking about podcast topics for you, and I’d love to hear about the ups and downs of starting your new business Furniture Friends. Most of what you discuss is about Al + Imo, from a place of experience and hindsight, which is super helpful and definitely inspirational for someone just starting out. But I’d also love to hear about how you’ve found it starting a whole new thing again!"

In this episode we answer these questions:

Are there any differences you’ve felt between starting Furniture Friends vs. Al + Imo now that you’ve learnt some business lessons over the years?

Do you still feel doubt or imposter syndrome?

What are the things you’ve done better this time around that you wish you knew the first time?

What would you do differently if you were starting Al + Imo from scratch?

If you're looking for an episode all about business and marketing this is NOT the episode to listen to! Today we're answering the big questions like ...

What fictional place would you most like to go to?
If you had unlimited funds to build a house that you would live in for the rest of your life, what would it be like?
What is the most annoying habit other people have?

And wild questions like - When was the last time you climbed a tree.... I bet you're itching to know...

We hope you enjoy getting to know us a little more!

March 22, 2022 5 ways To Stay / Get Motivated & Inspired
Raspy voice and language warning!

This week's episode was inspired by a beautiful email I received last week from a student inside our Successful Furniture Makers online course. We were deep in covid isolation land, sick and feeling a little sorry for ourselves. In essence the email said "What you're doing is valuable, keep going" and the words of encouragement couldn't have come at a better time - so thank you Phoebe for turning my day around completely- you inspired and motivated me.

In this episode we share 5 ways to stay / get motivated and inspired. A great listen for anyone out there who is a creative, runs a small business or is just looking for some ideas to get going on a project!

We also share all of the things we're currently consuming - podcasts, books, audiobooks, music, shows etc.

March 08, 2022 Avoid Burnout Before You’re Already Burned Out
Over the weekend we were at a wedding, a common topic of discussion was around burnout, a lot of people were talking about how they're feeling overwhelmed with post lockdown work/life balance.

We get it! For 2 years we had no other obligations than work and then all of a sudden the gates open up and here we are socialising every weekend and the workload has stayed the same.

In this week's episode we chat all about things to consider and strategies to implement to avoid burnout.

Enjoy!

March 01, 2022 How to Create Successful Instagram Content
Sourcing Instagram content can be a struggle. Coming up with concepts and then actually finding the right visuals for your feed is easier said than done. Because not only does your Instagram content need to be relevant and interesting to your target audience–it also needs to look good.

Instagram is a highly visual platform, and generally speaking, successful social media marketing campaigns are heavily dependant on eye-catching and engaging images. So, the pressure is on.

Content is the lifeblood of your Instagram account. But create content doesn’t have to be a huge headache, in this episode we chat about things to get you started when planning your business Instragram content.

Enjoy!

February 22, 2022 5 Times Our Optimism Has Led To Opportunity
This episode was spurred on from a conversation I had with a business mentor, she mentioned optimism and opportunity in the same sentence and it got Al and I thinking about the time in our lives our optimism has lead to opportunity.

We recorded this in bed after spending 2 hours trying to get Goldie down and goshhhh it would have been easy to just skip this week... but we pushed through and we hope that wherever you're listening from you take something away from it!

Big shoutout to our listeners near & far - thanks for your support!

February 01, 2022 You Should Start Your Own Business - Here's Why!
If you’ve been sitting on a business idea for a while and not sure whether you should start we want you to listen to this podcast episode. We chat about the BEST things about running your own business and why you should totally do it!
Think of us as the people in your corner cheering you on, supporting and encouraging you to go out and get it! Nothing inspires us more than hearing other people’s stories!

Packing up, leaving the city and moving away to start @al_and_imo is one of the most transformative decisions we’ve made together. We blindly threw ourselves into the deep end and just went for it with little to no business background. You’ll often hear us refer to our business as our first baby, we’ve been nurturing and growing it from the ground up, many business books, podcasts and mentors guiding us along.

It’s been one hell of an adventure and SO much fun… if there’s anything we could say to summarise having our own business - is that life feels limitless.
