DUDE. WHY is it so hard to come up with a bloody name for your company???

Seriously. WHY IS EVERYTHING TAKEN? So there I am, excited, inspired, vibes immaculate. I’ve got my notebook, my Pinterest board, my mind maps. I’ve got Spotify playlists with titles like “CEO Energy” and “Building an Empire, Babe.”

I’m feeling powerful. I’m like Yes. I’m gonna find a name that captures my essence. Something bold. Something memorable. Something that screams: this brand is me. This is MY story. My vision. A little masala, a little mischief.

And then.

I type it into Companies House.

TAKEN.

I type it into Google Domains.

ALSO TAKEN.

Right, so. You’re probably wondering what this is all about. And honestly, same. Like, what even is this podcast? Is it a business podcast? A therapy session I forgot to pay for? Just a brown girl ranting about capitalism with a side of caffeine? All of the above, really. This podcast—whatever it ends up being called—is going to be my journey. Warts and all. The highs, the meltdowns, the awkward networking attempts. 

Because if we don’t talk about the messy bits, what’s the point? We deserve honest stories. Not just polished LinkedIn posts and smug TED Talks.
