Most of us grew up surrounded by a whirlwind of food rules. From diet culture telling us to cut carbs and count every calorie, to wellness trends convincing us that only green juices and almond flour are the path to health,it's no wonder we now feel totally disconnected from how to actually nourish our bodies. So much of nutrition advice is either unscientific, over-simplified, or just plain wrong. So today, I’m joined by someone who’s made it her mission to cut through the noise. Rhiannon Lambe...

Jo Malone CBE has long been high up on my dream guests list for this podcast. Not only because she's built two incredible global brands but she's also faced more than your average person's challenges along the way (to say the least). From losing her sense of smell after battling aggressive breast cancer, to the continuing complexity of separating herself from the brand that still carries her name, Jo is so candid in this episode. If you've got a dream of building anything, or you just want a pod...

So I feel like we all know that feeling when you watch someone launch a business, or start posting vlogs, or announce their new side hustle, and whilst most of you is like WELL DONE a small part of you is like: “Oof… that’s brave.” It’s that feeling that I want to get into today. That tiny little cringe feeling we get, is basically our own fear of being seen trying . And today, I want to have a chat about why that fear is not only unnecessary, it’s also can really hold us back. + DILEMMA SUBMISS...

I can’t tell you how many times I’ve sat down to record this podcast and been told to “do less better”, that focusing on one thing is the only route to success in a career, whilst knowing that it’s no secret that I love pursuing new things. And for months I’ve been thinking about an episode on exactly that. So when I had the chance to have half an hour with Richard in the Virgin offices, I thought who better to really get into this subject with. I feel like lots of people, like me, don’t want to...

Today’s guest is someone you may remember from one of our most listened-to episodes of last year—Sarah Ashcroft. Sarah is one of the original fashion creators in the UK, and in our last episode, she took us through her journey turning her online presence into the fashion powerhouse that was SLA The Label.

This week I sat down with the Head of Instagram & Threads, Adam Mosseri (no biggie). It was a pretty personal one for me, as I've been on this app since right at the beginning, every update, every logo, every new feature, and I even remember the moment 15 second videos came along, it felt like a whole new world. So many of us use Instagram every single day, whether that's to build a business, create incredible content or just send memes to your mate. So I knew I had to get answers from Adam ...

This week’s episode might be the one i’ve spent the most time thinking & planning ever.

This kind of stuff is something we were ...
