  • Don't Do Business With Friends

    We’re back with more Messy Business stories where we dig into the joys and challenges of business collaborations, including some myth-busting around working with friends, inclusion in the wellness industry, and the benefits of getting creative and playful in business.

    Sarah and Kirsty share valuable insights into how to get the best out of your business collaborations, what we need to think about to ensure our businesses are accessible to everyone, and what happens when we harness our inner sorcery to create exciting
    new client services!

    Listen to the full episode where we discuss:

    • The fiery cocktail of business collaboration - it can go one of two ways! 
    • Why you can’t do it without communication and vulnerability
    • Difficult firsts without loved ones
    • Proud and powerful allyship
    • Creativity and play in business

  • Break-ups and Hangovers

    Welcome to the first episode of Messy Business, with Sarah Taylor (she/her) and Kirsty Kianifard (she/her), where we lift the lid on what it’s really like to run a business!

    We’re here to help make navigating the emotional rollercoaster of entrepreneurship that little bit easier (because we all know it’s nowhere near as glamorous as Instagram makes out!)

    In this week’s episode, we explore the highs and lows of our own business journeys including horrible customer service, uncomfortable endings, and new beginnings, with a fair bit of banter thrown in for good measure!


    Listen to the full episode where we discuss:

    • Disempowering, disengaging, and jarring customer service.
    • The Wellness Evolution Festival cat-out-of-the-bag moment.
    • The worst hangover of our lives (without actually drinking any alcohol!)
    • Spinning too many plates and still finding time for fun.  
    • Huge life changes as a catalyst for business growth.
    • Why endings feel hard.


    We’re here to support you as you go through the challenges of running your own business, because it can be mighty lonely out there, especially when we’re looking around at everyone else thinking “Am I the only one who’s got no idea what I’m doing?!”

    We’d love your feedback on our first podcast episode so please send us a DM over on Instagram (links below) or email us at [email protected]
