Dream guest klaxon!! This week on Working Hard, Hardly Working, I’m speaking to the incredible Jen Atkin, the founder of OUAI and one of the world’s most influential hairstylists. She started out as a young stylist who moved to LA with $300 dollars in her pocket, and has since transformed the hair and beauty industry with her innovative approach and celebrity clientele. From styling stars like Chrissy Teigen & The Kardashians to building OUAI, a beloved haircare brand with a huge focus on incredible product, Jen’s journey is a masterclass in how to get to the top of an industry, and create true, long-lasting success. Whether you're a beauty enthusiast, aspiring entrepreneur, or just love a good success story, this episode is for you! + JEN: IG: https://www.instagram.com/jenatkinhair/?hl=en OUAI: https://theouai.co.uk/ MANE: https://heymane.com/ BOOK: https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/jen-atkin + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

This episode has been a long time coming, when I tell you I’ve been wanting to have Tash Oakley on for YEARS. She’s one of the OG influencers, but has used her platform to monetise her platform into a business that’s lasted decades, where many others have fallen by the wayside. As the co-founder of the internationally acclaimed brand Monday Swimwear, she has revolutionized the industry with her keen eye for design and deep knowledge of viral content. + TASH: IG: https://www.instagram.com/tashoakley/ Monday Swimwear: https://mondayswimwear.com/ Excessively Obsessed: https://www.hachette.co.uk/titles/natasha-oakley/excessively-obsessed/9780349437927/ + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

We’ve had a lot of entrepreneurs on this podcast, many are in the midst of growing their company. But Ankur Nagpal has been there done that, got the millions. He’s reached the goal so many entrepreneurs work towards, selling his edu- tech company Teachable for a 9-figure sum in 2020. Ankur has ticked off so many accolades, Forbes 30u30, tens of millions of dollars in funding, and of course a large exit. But behind the accolades are more challenges than you might expect, from getting a cease and desist from Facebook, to almost being kicked out of the country. I’m so thankful to Ankur for being so open about his journey.  + ANKUR: IG: https://www.instagram.com/ankurna/?hl=en TWITTER/X: https://x.com/ankurnagpal CARRY: https://www.instagram.com/carryhq_/?hl=en + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

Frankie Bridge has been working since the age of 12, and before her 30th birthday she’d sold 10 million records, and had 19 UK top ten singles, both as part of S Club Juniors, and then The Saturdays. Frankie has achieved things so many would dream of, but today she told me after each career move, she felt like a failure, and that she didn’t have control over her future & career. This is an episode about reinvention, not being scared to find your feet over & over again, and having the courage to create the future you want for yourself. + FRANKIE: IG: https://www.instagram.com/frankiebridge/?hl=en-gb Faves The Edit: https://www.instagram.com/favestheedit/ + MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/ + RETROGRADE, SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own businesses, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.
