This is an episode for anyone who wants to build incredible businesses.

I dive into how Olamide built Topicals from scratch, what it was like raising millions as a young Black founder, her bold move to acquire cult haircare brand Bread, and her best advice for anyone dreaming of following in her footsteps.

Today we’re unpacking what the winter arc actually is, why it’s taken over, and how we can make it work for us without feeling like we’ve failed if were not suddenly new people by next year!

Here's the TikTok I was talking about to do with using your phone in the morning: https://vm.tiktok.com/ZNdGgwPaU/

From side hustles to workout plans to the endless new Notion boards, we all chase the high of beginning something fresh, then abandon it when the shine wears off. And it turns out that’s not a personality flaw, it’s neuroscience.

So in this episode, I’m breaking down dopamine loops, the studies that explain them, and the tricks you can use to finally become someone who actually finishes what they start.

Thank you to our amazing expert Nir Eyal, for his help with this episode!

Today’s guest is someone I’ve wanted to have on for so long, Sophie Tea. If you’ve been anywhere near Instagram or TikTok in the last few years, you’ll know Sophie’s bold and colourful art, which she’s shared with her millions of followers and sells out around the world. 

What I love most about Sophie is that she didn’t take the safe path. She didn’t go to art school, she was snubbed by the art world, and yet now she has one of the biggest art empires in the UK.

I have had the honour of interviewing so many incredible successful women on this podcast and when you sit opposite top performers week in week out, not only are you humbled, but the habits that they all share become pretty obvious.

So, this week I sat down and wrote them all out, and tried to find as many examples and studies to back them up, so we can all learn as much as possible from them!

So, if you’ve ever wondered what makes the difference between women who thrive in their careers, their personal lives, and their leadership, and those who burn out or stall, this is the episode for you!!

Today’s episode is one I’m really excited about, because we’re talking women’s health again, and more specifically hormones. Whether it’s energy, sleep, mood, metabolism, fertility, or how we age, hormones impact everything, yet I personally barely understand them beyond our GCSE biology.

Joining me today is Professor Annice Mukherjee. Annice is a consultant physician, endocrinologist, and professor, and she’s one of the UK’s leading experts in hormone health. She’s the principal investigator for the UK’s first-ever national women’s health data registry.

I've been through the archives and pick out the best advice we’ve had from the amazing relationship experts I’ve had on over the years.

From sexologists, to relationship coaches, to girls who have just been through some SHIT and shared it on the pod, we’re going to get into it all to hopefully create a guide if you’re feeling a little lost when it comes to love, or you’re just in need of some advice.

I got married this week so I went digging in the archives and found the episode we recorded with my agent just after my engagement! It's the story of how she helped my fiancée pull off the biggest surprise of my life, at my dream location.

I hope you love it!!

I speak about my attitude to dating so much with my friends, but I never really speak about it on here, so i thought we could get into that today because as i’m getting closer to my actual wedding (wtf) i feel like i’ve been thinking a lot about what I’ve learnt about dating and to be quite frank, I’ve seen some terrifying takes online recently and I’m just not here for that!!

Matthew Hussey is the world’s leading dating coach. His YouTube channel has over 4 million subscribers and his advice has been viewed over 1.5 billion times online. He has coached celebrities, CEOs, and he’s always on The Today Show and in The New York Times. So it’s safe to say, he knows his stuff.

I met Matthew in LA earlier this year and knew I wanted him on the podcast, so the moment he touched down in London, we made it happen.
