Namrata Kamdar, founder of Plenaire: On brand execution and creating a competitive edge
This episode is the last episode of season 2 and I want to say a big thank you to all our listeners and our first sponsor of the podcast, Papier. I’ll be back with season 3 next year, so if you haven’t caught up with seasons 1 and 2, here’s your chance. This week, I am joined by Namrata Kamdar, founder of Plenaire (https://plenaire.co/), a British skincare brand that uses organic and sustainable approaches to beauty and lifestyle. During her late thirties, she experienced stress-related burnout and a bout of post-natal depression and took time off to work on herself. Her own subsequent journey with mental health and what she learned during recovery from burnout coupled with the desire to lead a more balanced life was the impetus for her to create Plenaire. (https://plenaire.co/) Her products were created out of a genuine need to develop safe, effective, and pleasurable alternatives for young women to care for their skin. In this conversation, Namrata shares with me her journey of building her career in FMCG’s over the last 15 years, how her research gave Pleanaire a competitive edge and the importance of brand execution. Plenaire is currently raising funds through crowdfunding, you can see more information about that here (https://www.seedrs.com/plenaire?_kx=9OBc1BqiJcMDh4zbjCu91E_Es4h1xGtAnnnzkaHuVl2V0Qyh6uP4eg8hCPzjBGGY.PSmwtA&utm_campaign=Email+Campaign+2021-11-24+16%3A17%3A28+%28RVijQh%29&utm_medium=email&utm_source=Checkout+signups). ------ My new book, Side Hustle in Progress: A Practical Guide to Kickstarting Your Business is published by HarperCollins and available to buy online and in all book shops.

Francesca Wells, Co-founder of Foundation Fm: On rewriting the rules of radio and navigating her role as a founder and a manger.
This week I’m joined by Frankie Wells, Co-founder of Foundation FM, a women-led station that’s rewriting the rules of radio. Launched in November 2018, foundation.fm was created by Frankie and her two friends: Ami Bennet, and Becky Richardson after noticing an increase of people in the broadcasting industry seeking safe spaces to create and share via the airwaves. The station has two goals in place: firstly, they want to position foundation.fm as a platform for the capital’s underground music, art and thought. The second, to promote artist development, career mentoring and, above all, create a space that foregrounds the creative efforts of a diverse group of women and LGBTQ* persons. In this episode, Frankie shares with me how she built her career in radio, her challenges with becoming a founder and a team leader and why radio is still relevant despite the boom of podcasting. --- My new book, Side Hustle in Progress: A Practical Guide to Kickstarting Your Business is published by HarperCollins and available to buy online and in all book shops.

Jessica Warch, Co-founder & CEO of Kimaï: On creating lab grown diamonds and changing the industry
In this weeks episode, I am joined by Jessica Warch, Co-founder and CEO of Kimaï (https://kimai.com/), a startup creating lab-grown diamonds. Kimaï was founded in 2018 by Jessica and her long-term friend now co-founder Sidney Neuhaus when they were both 24. The co-founders grew up in Antwerp the centre of the diamond trade with their family who are also diamond and jewellery traders. They both met at a girls scout club in Belgium and went on to be great friends. Years later, Jessica studied Business & Finance at Cass Business School, Sidney studied gemmology and later reconnected after working a few years at startups and in the jewellery industry. To get Kimaï off the ground they used their personal savings of £7,300 and kept the business lean by creating only a few pieces of jewellery they would use for samples and to help launch their website. Historically, diamonds have been mined from the ground where they were created over centuries. But recent advances in technology mean the same effects can now be created in the lab which results in creating better conditions for the earth and giving consumers an affordable equivalent with the same quality. At the heart of Kimaï is female empowerment. In less modern times, women would usually receive jewellery as a gift from men but today women are independent, working women and can afford their own pieces. But the industry is still promoting diamonds and luxury jewellery as something that’s gifted by a man to a woman. Kimaï infuses empowerment into their collections as they want women to feel good and confident when wearing their pieces, which is something they struggled to see on the market themselves. In this episode, Jessica shared with me how Megan Markle became the first celebrity to wear their jewellery and how this impacted their business, the joys of having a co-founder and the importance of keeping the business lean in the early days. You can find Kimaï on social here (https://www.instagram.com/kimai.co) and visit their website Kimaï.com (Kimai.com) --- My new book, Side Hustle in Progress: A Practical Guide to Kickstarting Your Business is published by HarperCollins and available to buy online and in all book shops.

Eshita Kabra-Davies, Founder of By Rotation: On starting her business as a side hustle
In this week’s episode, I’m speaking to Eshita Kabra-Davies, founder of By Rotation, the worlds first social fashion rental app. The idea for By Rotation came to her during her honeymoon to Rajasthan, India, where she found herself reconsidering her relationship with fashion. She was in her suburban home town and had not been back for over 30 years. Eshita felt guilty for buying new clothes for her honeymoon as this made her feel she was part of a system that was adding to the textile waste. She wondered how she could help an average consumer make a difference, which is how the idea of By Rotation was birthed. A platform that allows users to ‘rent’ their garments out to others, whether on a daily or weekly basis. The idea is to give everyday people something accessible and convenient that’s an alternative to the often-high price points of many sustainable fashion labels. By Rotation first started out as Eshitas side hustle whilst she worked full-time at a hedge fund. She spent evenings and weekends creating the beta platform and attending sustainable fashion events in order to build up her network. When By Rotation hit certain targets She had set, She finally left her seven-year career in investment management. Not only are they the largest fashion rental platform in the U.K., but they are also a completely circular and sustainable model thanks to their focus on peer-to-peer and technology.

Tiwalola Ogunlesi, Confidence Coach: on starting a business in the pandemic and cultivating a mindset for success
In today's episode, I have a phenomenal individual, Tiwalola Ogunlesi, a globally recognised coach specialising in positive psychology, Master Neuro-linguistic Practitioner, international speaker and the founder of Confident and Killing It. Tiwa also recently launched the Confidence Academy, you can find out more information here (https://join.confidentandkillingit.com/confident-and-killing-it-academy/). Tiwa made the decision to go full time on her business in late 2019, three months before the pandemic took place. She had pitched to organisations, secured clients and also had three months worth of savings in case anything went wrong. Like many others, she had no clue the pandemic would come! and when it did, this wiped out her business — all her clients cancelled bookings and she had to start from scratch. What do you do when something negative happens? What do you tell yourself? Naturally, our mind starts to feed us negative reasons why things will never get better. According to research, when something negative happens our mind's default state is fear and we will need to rewire our mind's response by telling our minds positive messages. In this episode, Tiwa shares with me how she changed her story of being cancelled and out of business to being booked globally.

Amy Thomson, founder of Moody Month: On burnout & creating a tech company for women's health
This week I’m joined by Amy Thomson, an incredibly inspiring entrepreneur and author of the book Moody: A 21st Century Hormone Guide which was published earlier this year. Amy started her first business at age 23 in 2011, a communications company working with brands such as Nike, Microsoft and Diageo.

As a result of the burnout, Amy’s periods stopped but she continued to work, until one day she made the decision to prioritise her health. Later that year, she decided to sell the business and take a break. Whilst on her break she began working on how she could solve the problem of stress impacting women’s hormones, health and happiness. This is how Moody Month was born.
