Most people think they know Timothy Sykes...

Fast money, big trades, Wolf of Wall Street energy.

But what they don’t see is the other side of his story.

Through his charity Karmagawa, Tim has helped build over 130 schools across 30+ countries, changing the lives of tens of thousands of children through education. And the way he talks about that impact is completely different to how most people in the finance world talk about success.

Yes, he turned $12,000 into millions before graduating college. Yes, he lived the lifestyle people think they want. But he’s also the first to admit that left him feeling empty.

And that’s where this conversation gets interesting.

At a time where the internet is saturated with “get rich, don’t care, dominate everything” energy - especially in the finance space - Tim quietly goes in the opposite direction. He’s still competitive, still obsessed, still driven… but instead of chasing more money, he’s using that same intensity to build something that actually matters.

This isn’t a soft, feel-good conversation either.

It’s honest, chaotic at times, but surprisingly grounding. We get into the reality behind success, the pressure, the mistakes, the ego, and what happens when you realise money alone doesn’t fulfil you. It’s about redefining what winning actually looks like, and why the mindset that makes you successful can either build your life… or leave you feeling completely unfulfilled.

If you’ve ever questioned what it is you really want, Tim has got the TEA!

The Irish queen herself is in the café… and yes, she brought her own tea 🇮🇪☕

This episode is a proper one - honest, funny, chaotic, and full of those real conversations we don’t have enough of anymore.

From building her career from scratch to navigating rejection, reinvention, motherhood, and finding her voice in a world that constantly tries to shape it… Laura Whitmore opens up in a way you’ve never seen before.

We get into the reality behind “overnight success,” the moments of imposter syndrome no one talks about, and what it really takes to keep reinventing yourself. We also dive into motherhood, pressure, and balance - and what it means to use your voice, even when it comes with backlash.

And of course… we bond over tea, Irish biscuits, and the fact that putting the kettle on fixes everything ☕  

This one feels like sitting down with a friend who’s lived a thousand lives - and still doesn’t take herself too seriously.

From setbacks to breakthroughs... over a Barry's cuppa tea.

Half the population has a menstrual cycle… so why do we still whisper about it?This week Amy sits down with Dr. Hazel Wallace - doctor, nutritionist, and women’s health advocate - to unpack everything from PMS and PCOS to hormones, nutrition, and why women’s health is still underfunded and misunderstood.Expect myth-busting, real science, and practical advice on how to actually support your body through every phase of your cycle.Because it’s 'not just a period' as Dr Hazel's best-selling book declares and it’s about time we started treating it that way.

Mimi Webb is in the café and the tea? Strong and sassy... just how we like it. From blowing up on TikTok in 2020 to rewriting an entire album because it “wasn’t deep enough,” Mimi opens up about heartbreak, boundaries, anxiety, and growing up in public.

We talk narcissists, girls’ girl loyalty, fake-it-till-you-make-it confidence, and the power of backing yourself - even when it’s scary.

And between Amy and Mimi? You can absolutely guarantee laugh-out-loud chaos.

If you’ve ever questioned yourself, stayed too long, second-guessed your talent, or needed the reminder to choose you - this episode will leave you feeling braver, clearer, and ready to own your main character moment.

Pour a cup. This one hits.

This week on What’s the Tea, Amy?, fashion icon and cultural queen Kelly Rutherford joins us for a cuppa - and trust us, the tea is poured elegantly, strong and without sugarcoating.

Yes, we talk Gossip Girl

Yes, we talk Melrose Place.

Yes, we talk filming iconic scenes while navigating motherhood.

But this isn’t just Upper East Side nostalgia.It’s about rebuilding your life when it doesn’t go to plan.

About evolving through change with grace.About raising children with love instead of ego.

About legacy, intuition, energy, and what actually matters in the long run.

Kelly speaks with a calm strength that's earned, not performed.

From elevator selfies that broke the internet to “women are portals” conversations that will make you rethink womanhood - this episode is graceful, grounded, and deeply personal.

It’s resilience with red lipstick.

It’s calm.

It's clarity.

It’s tea served with class.

Poet. Storyteller. Firestarter.

In this episode of What’s the Tea, Amy? Nikita Gill sits down for a conversation that moves between myth, modern womanhood, rage, rejection, patriarchy, displacement, and the power of language.Born between cultures and shaped by family histories of partition and protest, Nikita speaks about why rage is not something to suppress but something to reframe.

Why women are called “too much.” Why being “oversensitive” is actually strength. And why rejection isn’t the end.From calling out misogyny to dismantling rigid gender roles, from Britney Spears and girlhood to political speeches and poetic resistance, this episode explores what it means to take up space without apology.It’s about turning anger into action.

It’s about not dimming your shine.It’s about holding your ground in a world that constantly tries to shrink women.If you’ve ever been told you’re too loud, too emotional, too ambitious, too political — this conversation is for you.

The TEA is fierce. And so is she.

Some people don’t just walk into a room…they shift the whole energy.

Adot Gak is one be of those people!

Her life reads like a movie. Born in Sudan. Forced to flee to Egypt. And then found refuge in Iowa until her dreams were too loud to ignore.

Today, she’s a force in the fashion world - runways, campaigns, iconic moments. But this episode isn’t about labels or covers.

It’s about grief. Survival. Reinvention.

It’s about being underestimated your entire life and saying, “Watch me.”

It’s about caring for a sick parent while chasing a dream.

It’s about being the funny girl in the room while carrying something heavier than anyone knew.

From modeling industry truths to “I don’t need a man, I need oxygen” energy - this conversation doesn’t goes ALL IN.

The tea is HOT.

And the inspiration? Even hotter.

The kettle’s poured for Adot Gak…

and she’s spilling exactly what it takes to fight against the odds and make it happen.
