Yes SHE Can Project- Stories of amazing women doing amazing things

Come and join the conversation with the gorgeous Jo Pickard as we chat about everything from Mexican waves, monkeys and life as a voice over actor and TV Presenter!

Jo's warmth and energy is exactly the same in real life as it is on camera, her role as the presenter with the incredible @omazeuk is one she talks fondly and passionately about. Surrounded by an amazing team and being able to deliver life changing news to people, whilst raising money for charity, she hails as a dream role ❤️

We chat about her own concerts at the tender age of 4, the physical groundwork that she had to undertake in the early days as part of her career that it took to secure jobs.

We talk about her stance on social media, the implications of negativity whilst all the while remaining focused and calm and the power of keeping a positive mindset.

Jo's warmth and positivity is so infectious, just talking to her, you know you are in the presence of a super special lady!

We talk about the importance of friends in adult life, the ability to process loss and come out the other side, and the benefits of not only having good energy but projecting that outwardly.

We chat about how important it is to set boundaries, allow yourself the time and space to breathe and reset, and the power of being able to say no!

She talks me through her goals and aspirations for the future and I for one am so excited to see what the future holds for such a wonderful lady!! ❤️

A lovely lady with a lovely soul, thankyou Jo it was a pleasure!

Come and join the conversation as Charlotte tells me all about the reality of working in PR. From the long hours and the dedication it takes, it's not an industry for the faint hearted!

From clients being stuck on the M25, to rain and no umbrellas, stitching dresses before a red carpet walk, there is nothing she hasn't seen!

She tells me about her love for her team, the solidarity they have and how they manage to keep calm under pressure and remain professional at all times.

The core root of her agency is bringing something different to the industry, not only do they work with huge brands, they are just as invested in start ups and independents, seeing small brands become their big brands is amazing and a testament to her work! The joy she feels when she sees her clients successes and her passion for doing good and helping charity is incredible!

With an all female team and loyalty being at the forefront of her ethos, Charlotte explains how this is a winning combination in her business.

Fascinating and insightful, I absolutely LOVED talking to her! ❤️

Listen as she tells me some behind the scenes snippets of what model life is REALLY like! Trying not to drown, pretending you can ski and underwater photography!

She explains the shift in the industry, previously only for younger women, there is now a created and celebrated space and opportunity for women of all ages.

The juggle of work and motherhood, pressing pause on her career whilst bringing up her children, yet pivoting to seek out opportunities to develop her own business.

Her story is so interesting, spanning across the globe! Growing up in South Africa, jetting off to Milan to start her modelling career at the tender age of 15, Zanne has learnt to be independent, headstrong and professional, maintaining and creating relationships, making her an ideal client to work with.

We discuss one of her new ventures, being a co host on "Fashion Fix Live", an exciting podcast with 3 other powerhouse women! We chat about the sense of community and power when women come together and the strength of supporting one another.

You can follow Zanne on Instagram @allthingszanne, her BRAND NEW website is launching very soon & you can catch her on the upcoming series of Fashion Fix Live with Samantha @styleeditoruk, Lizzi @lovedbylizzi and Janine @ownyourstyleuk

Join us as we chat with Beth about her company Mama Life London, her passion for making clothes stylish, wearable, durable and practical for mums. She tells me how important it is to her when it comes to choosing fabrics, styles and slogans to reflect the lives of Mums just like her.

We delve into the seriousness of us as women being aware of hidden dangers when it comes to walking and running alone, the secret codes that we are brought up being taught, and the amount of pre planning that goes into choosing our routes when being on our own.

She tells me about one of the giant supermarket chains stealing her design and slogan, yet the strong community that she has built that immediately leapt to our defence. Just because a business is smaller than a large chain, doesn't mean it isn't mighty!! 💪🏻

She talks about seeing her clothes on Amanda Holden, the ups and downs of being a female entrepreneur, juggling mumlife and a business, and we discuss the judgement you are faced with when it comes to raising your children.

Exciting plans for Mama Life London, watch this space!
