Let’s just admit it: most of us are addicted to our mobile phones. 

Remove them, and we’d all be happier, more productive (and probably wealthier) entrepreneurs! Yet, it’s harder than ever to put them down.

This week on Unapologetic Entrepreneurship, Delia and Joana get honest about their own phone habits — and the small changes actually making a difference.

Listen now to discover:

🔥 How to figure out which app is really stealing your time (it might not be the one you'd guess) 

🔥 Why turning off notifications isn't enough on its own

🔥 How to build boredom back into your day, and why your brain actually needs it

🔥 Simple boundaries you can set tonight to get your evenings back from your phone

Is cutting back really about willpower — or is there something more powerful we can rely on? Listen to find out.

Want to bunk off work early to go to the beach or meet friends in a local park? Or take a couple of weeks off guilt-free in August? Then this week’s episode is a must-listen. 

Delia and Joana get into exactly how to take your summer back — without your to-do list falling apart.

Listen now to discover:

🔥 How to use “exam conditions” to increase your productivity (and why giving yourself less time can make the work better, not worse)

 🔥 The difference between productive creative flow and creative procrastination — and how to avoid the latter

🔥 The three-word mantra Joana repeats to herself before a task she's dreading

🔥 Why Monday mornings are the one time Delia refuses to work alone (beach brain is real)

"I'm struggling to find meaning and purpose in my work." That's what a listener wrote in after building a new business. Sound familiar?

This week on Unapologetic Entrepreneurship, Delia and Joana pull that question apart — and land somewhere neither of them expected.

Listen now to discover:

🔥 How to find purpose in any work you do: from running a design agency and copywriting to running a travel business and supporting thousands as a coach

🔥 Why chasing a bigger purpose can leave you feeling worse than a one-on-one conversation with your best friend ever did 

🔥 How Delia and Joana found deep purpose while working together on a hair salon’s website

🔥 How something small Joana said 4 years ago made Delia cry mid-recording — and what it has to do with purpose 

🔥 The one question that replaces "what's my purpose" to live a satisfied and fulfilled life

And perhaps the biggest one of all — is purpose found, built — or is it keeping you trapped?

Four careers. Four times starting over with no guarantee it would work.

This week, Joana puts Delia in the hot seat to find out what it actually takes to dramatically pivot your business — even when you've built something successful, even when it's scary, even when everyone around you thinks you're mad to walk away.

🔥 Why she walked away from political journalism — the only job she'd wanted since she was 10 years old

🔥 How she grew a business from zero to £500k while eating $1 noodles on the streets of Saigon

🔥 The question she asked the ocean when Covid wiped out her business two weeks after giving birth — that changed the trajectory of her career completely

🔥 The one tool Delia uses to stop fear from making her decisions for her, even when you don’t have a financial security net

If you've ever felt the itch that something needs to change but talked yourself out of it — this episode is the permission slip you didn't know you needed.

Heads up: This is NOT another “business strategy” podcast. 

This is your chance to be a fly on the wall in the conversations two best friends and entrepreneurs have every single Monday morning (the ones that set them up for the most successful week possible).

And here's the thing: they rarely talk strategy.

They talk about the stuff that actually moves the needle in business: fear, alignment, money stories, the version of success nobody else is allowed to choose.

Listen to the first episode to hear:

🔥 The Monday morning ritual that's turned average weeks into five-figure ones, more than once

🔥 What "unapologetic" really means when the thing that built your business stops feeling like you anymore

🔥 Why chasing someone else's revenue number might be the most expensive mistake in entrepreneurship

🔥 The difference between burnout and boredom, and why both are quietly costing entrepreneurs everything

🔥 What's coming in the next episode (spoiler alert: Joana is REALLY nervous about this one!!)
