'This is how social media is destroying your life'. This is one of the most viewed titles about social media on YouTube. It is a view of what social media is and what it does. How we view social media influences how we use it. How has social media impacted your life? 

In and of itself, social media cannot possibly be bad or good. How people use, social media is what makes it good or bad. Used correctly, social media can be a great benefit to us and those around us. It is simply a tool that is used to communicate. Your view of social media could be what is stopping you from bringing your value to the world. Join Arnold and Chiko in this conversation.

Emily, 1 of 2 sister-owners of Fresh Perspective Resourcing speaks her truth. A successful woman in business who is overcoming her battles with anxiety and confidence.

They have created a recruitment company like no other. The Fresh Perspective brand communicates passion, life, boldness, humour, hard work and excellence. Emily's passion to see other women succeed is unquestionable. 

We have bought the concept of work-life balance, but is it even possible? Mich introduces the idea of work-life cadence. Something is always out of balance; therefore, we have to find another way to keep moving forward. 

"Cadence implies momentum and movement". The idea of cadence is progressing in life even when one thing is demanding more than the rest. 

How do you to transition from 9-5 work to pursue your entrepreneurial aspirations? "There is no one size fits all", however, Chiko shares his experience. He is a marketer and co-founder of Meetheowner. He is open about the mistakes he made, which can be avoided. 

Rory is an outdoor sports influencer, and brand ambassador for brands such as Salomon, Polar UK & Ireland, SunGod, O'Shea International and has also worked with big names like Nike and Speedo. 

Rory built his Instagram following from 0 to 13K entirely organically. In the interview, he explains how it all started with him trying to get a cheap freebie to working with some of the biggest brands in the world. 

He mentions how businesses can take advantage of uncertain times to create content that connects with people. We touch on how companies whose activities may seem uninteresting can succeed on social media. 

Starting a business anywhere in the world is difficult, but the added disadvantages of being an immigrant make it even more tricky. Yemi was able to overcome this and tells us how. 

Yemi shows us the mindset he had to have to start his business. Coming from Nigeria with not many connections in the UK, Yemi had to do many uncomfortable things to achieve his success. 

Yemi moved to the UK with £200 in his pocket, which got stolen and debt of £8000. Yemi talks about how he was able to overcome the challenges he has faced on his journey, from Nigeria and being an immigrant in the UK. 

Despite the difficult moments he describes, he was able to excel in his career and travel the world. Yemi gives sound advice about how immigrants can be successful in the western world. One of the most important principles he talks about is getting out of our comfort zone. 

Watch part 2 for how Yemi started his business in the UK.
