Graduating is difficult enough at the best of times but this years graduating class have also had a global pandemic to contend with...

Today I'm welcoming Marketing and Communications Director, Bianca Bass to the podcast!

I recently stumbled across a post Bianca shared on Instagram which was a Live Channel 5 news interview in which she spoke about overcoming shyness and creating her own success.

After following Bianca for a number of years and seeing her doing all kinds of incredible things within her business such as consulting at Downing Street and hosting lectures at Google, it surprised me to learn that confidence is something that she has had to work hard on developing throughout her career.

As a self confessed introverted extrovert, I just had to get Bianca on the podcast to chat about it some more!

In the episode I chat to Bianca all about how confidence is a skill you over can acquire with practice, why women should be using our voices more, as well as why shyness can be a super power within business!

I absolutely loved diving into this topic in more detail with Bianca, she shares SO much incredible and empowering advice that I know is going to be so reassuring to hear for so many women. I really hope you enjoy the episode!

After being discharged and heading home, Franky realised that it was going to be a long road to recovery and after six months she was diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome which she has been suffering with ever since.

Did you know that 80% of Brits feel that working from home has negatively impacted their mental health?⠀

⠀

As someone who has seriously struggled with working from home since day one this really doesn't surprise me but what does surprise me is how the psychological side of working from home isn't often spoken about or prioritised.⠀

⠀

It's something that I wasn't prepared for before I took the leap and went self-employed which is why I'm now so keen to support those finding the transition into working from home tough.⠀

⠀

In this episode I'm sharing my 5 tips to help you look after and prioritise your mental health whilst working from home.
