The Emma Guns Show

This episode is brought to you in collaboration with Crabtree & Evelyn.

Forget everything you thought you knew about @crabtreeandevelyn - in a brand new episode I’m joined by the brand’s Chief Branding Officer, Ashley Souza, who shares this new version of Crabtree & Evelyn.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Ashley’s early beauty career growing up in her mother’s hair salon.
• The incredible insight into the beauty business she learned working with some of the biggest names in beauty.
• Why Crabtree & Evelyn is way more global and eclectic than its traditional English Country garden image.
• The global influence that informs the brand moving forward.
• The mechanics that go into reinventing an established brand and so much more…

Emma Storey-Gordon is an online coach and educator who joins me to debunk health, fitness and weight loss myths and interrogate the middle ground between diet culture and anti-diet.

During our conversation we discuss a lot; everything from tapping into motivation, the many myths out there about health, weight loss and fitness that are incredibly unhelpful, the huge middle ground between diet culture and anti-diet culture, why changing your mindset is always a better goal than a weight or clothes size, the benefits of delayed gratification, why it’s a myth that watching what you eat and going to the gym is joyless, why consistency is the most vital component to achieving your goals and so much more.

Justine Kluk is a Consultant Dermatologist who joins me to share her feel-good habits, the strategies she uses and recommends to make sure every day is a good day.

In this episode, @drjustinekluk and I discuss:

• Why her feel-good habits have changed and looked very different pre-pandemic.
• How committing to virtual personal training sessions during lockdown helped her to connect with her progress and notice the strength she was building.
• How lockdown felt like 'life with all the fun bits sucked out' and how to make sure that didn't become 'normal'.
• The ways she has learned to maximise her time since working from home.
• Why hugging and spending time with the people you love is an obvious but hugely valuable feel-good habit.
• Why learning to enjoy motherhood, as a self-confessed perfectionist, has been its own journey.
• How redisovering the feel-good factor of beauty meant she was first into the salons once restrictions were lifted.
• Why her job gives her so much joy and how her own experiences with acne made her want to help people who experienced it too.

Teddi Mellencamp is an accountability coach who came to the realisation that the thing standing between her and the goals she wanted to achieve was her. After that lightbulb moment Teddi pieced together what else she needed to do in order to achieve her goals and exit the vicious cycle of where someone, or something, was always to blame. 

In this episode we discuss:

• Why comparison kills all joy and how to avoid it.
• Why it’s so easy to get caught in a vicious cycle where you’re actively working against yourself without realising.
• The trap of ‘misery loves company’.
• Why it’s so unhelpful to look for external validation and why it’s vital to develop that skill within yourself.
• Why the physical transformation is nothing compared to the mental and emotional one when you start taking accountability.
• Why self-sabotaging behaviour is trying to stop you from feeling something you should be feeling.
• The value is opening up the lines of communication with your inner circle so you feel seen and heard.
• Why it’s a myth that motivated people wake up motivated every day.
• The best investment you can make is in yourself.
• Snapping yourself out of feeling like a victim.

This episode is brought to you in collaboration with Elemis.

In this episode, I’m joined by Elemis Co-Founder and Global President Noella Gabriel. I’m lucky enough to have one-to-one appointments with beauty brand owners through work and one of the most memorable, when I started out in beauty, was a sit down I had with Noella at the Elemis Spa*. 

We were scheduled to chat again for the launch of the new Pro-Collagen Renewal Serum* and I thought it would be wonderful to share this one-to-one on the show.

In this episode, Noella shares the brand’s story, why ‘truth in beauty’ is at the core of everything Elemis does, why a high-quality and effective skincare doesn’t have to be functional and can be a pleasure. Noella also shares the story behind the new Pro-Collagen Renewal Serum, the incredible results from the clinical trial and much much more…

The NEW Pro-Collagen Renewal Serum is available now.

Use the code EMMAGUNS25 to get 25% off sitewide at Elemis until 9am UK time on 31st August 2021.

Rebecca Seal is a podcaster and author who joins me to share her feel-good habits, the strategies she uses and recommends to make sure every day is a good day.

In this episode @bexseal and I discuss:

• The no alcohol Monday to Friday rule that she and her husband have implemented to make working from home more productive.
• Why working from home requires boundaries and having strict ‘working hours’ and ‘no work on weekends’.
• Why lockdown and working from home made her analyse her relationship with food and helped her make the shift to eating as though she were feeding a friend.
• The value in transitional rituals to move from one mode of thinking/being to another.
• Why people are so good for the soul and connection, whether in-person or online, is something to nurture and make time for.

Bex’s book Solo: How to Work Alone (and not lose your mind) is available now and Bex’s podcast The Solo Collective, is available on all good podcast platforms.
