This week I chatted with the wonderful Elle from The E-commerce Assistant, who elevates small businesses to the next level with websites and email marketing. So if you can’t tell the difference between your Shopify or your Klaviyo (no - me nether!)
then this is the episode for you.

Having just got into the dark art of email marketing for my own business (via the brilliant Helen Perry and her List Club) I thought I speak to an expert and Elle is excellent at what she does. It’s not all biz talk though as we also discuss the shit-show of running your own biz during the school holidays (and I offer what’s worked for me!) plus a big dose of Marvel geekdom - we are both totally team Antman.

Elle is so brilliant that she is launching her own online school, that will teach you how to make your website work hard for you with e-commerce strategy from the ground up, so you can retain and convert customers. (hurrah!) You can find out more here.

Jump into my Insta DM’s and let me know if you enjoyed this episode - I think you’ll find this really useful.

One of the questions I get asked a lot in my Empowerment sessions and client calls is about testing your Facebook Ads - how and when to do it and for how long?

The answer is simple. With Facebook Ads the testing never stops and that’s a good thing! It keeps things interesting and means you’re always looking for little tweaks that you can make to help drive down your costs further and get more bang for your buck.

In this bitesized episode I'm sharing my simple strategy for testing during your campaign cycle and talk a little about the funnel process too - hint, it's a bit like going on a date!

Did you know I have a Newsletter? Sent out every other Friday it's chocca full of really useful stuff to do with Facebook Ads, there might even be some pod and telly recommendations too.

This week I’ve decided to replay one of my most listened to episodes - Its with the fabulous Donna Noble!

Donna Noble is a master yogic practitioner and founder of Curvesome Yoga, a place for people to enjoy yoga regardless of size, ability or colour. 15 years ago Donna was a very different lady, running herself ragged with a highly stressful job in the City of London that culminated with her contracting Bell's Palsy (Bell's palsy is a temporary weakness or lack of movement affecting 1 side of your face. Symptoms of Bell's palsy include weakness on 1 side of your face, a drooping eyelid or corner of your mouth.

It was through yoga that she initially allowed herself to heal and rebuild her life, on a journey that took her to LA and back to London, where she became a pioneer of the body-positive movement.

I'm replaying this episode from season 2 ( wayyyy back in the summer of 2020) as Donna has a wonderful book out: Teaching Body Positive Yoga: A Guide to Inclusivity, Language and Props. With practical tips, as well as information on social justice and body-positive yoga off the mat, Teaching Body Positive Yoga is a well-rounded resource that gives yoga teachers the confidence to host inclusive and welcoming classes for all. Donna is truly leading the way to ensure that yoga is available to every-BODY, regardless of age, size, ethnicity, ability or gender.
