Fiona Gillies & Christine Hartland

In this episode, we meet the brilliant duo behind My SMASH Media — Fiona Gillis and Christine Hartland. These two powerhouse producers are shaking up the film and TV industry with a platform designed to make matchmaking between creators and decision-makers as easy as swiping right. They share how their own frustrations in the industry led to the creation of SMASH, the joys and challenges of building a startup as co-founders, and the lessons learned from raising investment — including one pitch so disruptive it caused visible outrage on an industry panel! We also tackle a real-life founder dilemma: how to network confidently when you're an introvert. Expect honest advice, plenty of laughs, and a healthy dose of “we’ll just do it ourselves, then” energy. Whether you’re in the creative industries or building something from scratch, this one is packed with insight and inspiration. Topics we cover: From actor to entrepreneur: Fiona’s unconventional journey Finding the right co-founder (on a train!) Disrupting a traditional industry with tech Pitching under pressure Honest truths about investment as female founders Building confidence in networking Why founders make great producers — and vice versa

Caroline Barelle and Vicki Hazley

In this episode, Elizabeth Pirrie chats with two powerhouse women working at the intersection of science and investment: Caroline Barelle, CEO of Elasmogen, and Vicki Hasley from the Scottish National Investment Bank. We hear how both women started with biochemistry degrees but took very different routes—Caroline from academia to biotech entrepreneurship, and Vicky from innovation support into impact investment. Caroline shares the powerful personal story behind her passion for drug development, how she spun Elasmogen out from the University of Aberdeen, and what it takes to bring new treatments to market. Vicki explains why the Scottish National Investment Bank invested in Elasmogen and what it means to be a "mission-driven" funder. Expect honest reflections on balancing motherhood with ambition, how to navigate the spin-out process, and why Scotland’s collaborative ecosystem matters. Plus: 80s bangers, fantasy football, and vacuuming in leg warmers.
