This week, I'm chatting to the delightful Joe West (@joeewestt on Instagram) - a model with Tyne Tees who's worked on shoots for world-famous brands like ASOS, Barbour and Manchester United. I'm lucky enough to have known Joe for YEARs and watching his journey from a distance has been beautiful to see.

I'm also joined by the wonderful Alisha Cowie (@_lisha_pie) - our Miss England for 2018/19 who's helped raise over £30,000 for charities including Papyrus UK. She's also openly spoken about the effects of social media on BBC Breakfast and The Victoria Derbyshire Show. Despite being so young, Joe and Alisha have been in the modelling industry for a number of years and met whilst on a casting session together. As well as being an absolute power couple, traveling around the world doing shoots in countries like China and Mauritius and Nepal, they're both incredibly humble and grounded, with Joe studying building surveying at Newcastle, and Alisha crime scene investigation and forensic science.

When I decided to bring guests onto The ScottBar Show for season two, Joe and Alisha were right at the top of my list. On the show, they share their amazing experiences and modelling insights, which I'm confident will inspire many of you cricketers to pursue your own projects, and we cover a wide range of topics, including ideas for successful fundraising, the less glitzy side of modelling and how to pull the perfect pose. (Get the notebooks at the ready Cricketers!) Enjoy!
