SEMI-PRECIOUS

EPISODE 5, Amber and Jade go deep into their contrasting experience of business, personal drive, appetite for risk and connection to the term “boss bitch”. As Jade describes it, “the full hardy bravery” required to dig in, work hard and build a career of passion and self advocacy. Amber reflects with some seriousness, on her approach to “failing fast” and the risk v reward attitude that drove her success after she fled a domestic violence situation, starting a business and raising a child on her own.

Amber and Jade talk about the importance of impact, loneliness, professional acknowledgement (or lack thereof), recognition and validation in their contrasting industries -  strategy & branding and therapeutic counselling.

At some point whilst head first into the editing process, Jade decides things need a little spicing up so interjects the pre-recording with an impromptu phone call to catch Amber off guard and inject “some energy” into the episode! 📷Apologies for the low-fi sound quality of that little bit, Amber was sitting in a wardrobe at the time!

Take a listen if you want to her Amber and Jade talk about finding new ways to find joy, reinvigorating their businesses and Amber’s disdain for the term “entrepreneur” and “mumpreneur”.

In episode 4, Amber and Jade share their experience of ageing as Amber sits across from Jade studying how much ‘work’ there is to be done- beginning with her thin patchy eyebrows and chipped nails.

They share both their ageing vulnerabilities and they way in which they feel more empowered in their 40’s.

They push back on the antiquated notion of ‘dress your age’ and Amber muses that clothes should be simply categorised “good taste and bad taste”, leaving age out of the equation.

Take a listen if you want to her Amber in full judgey sister mode and be inspired by her slightly terrifying, yet thrilling, waterslide metaphor.

Warning: this episode is not as amusing or witty as you might have come to expect if you have listened to Episode 1 and 2 so if you are in need of light relief then this might not be your vibe. Sorry, not sorry 😘

Tune in if you want to hear Jade slipping into Counsellor mode with her soft inquisitive “I’m curious, help me to understand” voice and Amber explain her SEMI-PRECIOUS moment as one that could have had her arrested an imprisoned in an overseas country.

In episode 2, the Semi Precious sisters share what it was like growing up in the 70’s and 80’s in a big and somewhat dysfunctional family. They quickly discover there are a few things they didn’t know about one another. Jade reveals that she wasn’t a goody two shoes despite her smiling façade, whilst Amber confesses, she was both a scaredy cat and “a bit of an asshole”.

As the youngest 2 of 5 sisters, they compete for the ‘who had it toughest’ award. Jade wins, because she’s the one writing this intro. However, Amber exceeds expectations with her Semi Precious moment which will resonate for many women that have had children. Amber also enriches our lives with a couple of Little Gems.

A podcast that’s clever, silly and sometimes unbelievable. SEMI-PRECIOUS follows the stories of two high energy neurodivergent sisters who have survived some pretty tricky life situations.

In what can only be described as a classic case of over sharing, the hosts, a brand strategist (the blonde one) and a relationship counsellor (the brunette) talk uncut and unpolished about business, raising humans, embarrassing accidents and their unhealthy obsession with Champagne, cheese and gin. You might learn something, you might be inspired but if nothing else, you will definitely have a laugh.

https://www.instagram.com/awakenadhdpodcast/?igshid=MmIzYWVlNDQ5YgIn this episode you will be introduced to us, your SEMI-PRECIOUS sisters Amber and Jade. While it’s a bit of a bio for both of us, you will come to see why we talk about being “uncut and unpolished” and how we are learning to embrace being beautifully imperfect, absurd, random, clumsy, sweary, rebellious and sometimes forgetful hot messes!

As is typical for Amber, she will avoid answering anything that gets too emotional or raw (at least in this episode) and Jade will over share her story and try to pry vulnerability from Amber’s soul!  While there is a bit about us, our families, career and disposition - we also try to unpack what the hell we are doing producing a podcast. - neither of us have enough time or commitment to completing projects so it will be amazing if we get past this first episode up!

Buckle in, it could be a rocky first rodeo!
