In the first episode of the new season I chat with Leona Thrift-ola, the most requested guest I have ever had! Leona is a woman after my own heart, and chatting with her felt like a kindred spirit.

A must-listen for anyone who has feared they weren't enough.

In this episode, I chat with Jacqueline, an Illustrator and Pattern Designer based in London who specialises in creating explorable and playful illustrations that defy the ordinary.
Jacqueline and I chat about how being a 'sproduct' business has helped her to thrive, our love/hate relationship with Instagram and why more small businesses need to apply to brand 'open calls' and not be afraid of failure.
Finally, we explore why being a 'doer' is so important to the success of your small business and procrastination could be a sign from your gut that what you're doing isn't right.
