53. Can friends ever become clients? [setting boundaries in friendships]

54. Yasmin Thompson ON: How to unleash your messy AF self + create an authentic BRAND

IT'S ANOTHER GUEST EPISODE WITH THE AMAZING YAZ THOMPSON! THIS IS GENUINELY ONE OF MY FAVOURITE EPISODES I'VE EVER PUBLISHED ON THE PODCAST.. IT'S WELL WORTH A LISTEN. Yaz is an incredible business + marketing mentor whose content I personally LOVE because she is all about messy marketing and keeping it real AF. Her feed is one I always remember because it's so bright, bold and just screams FUN. She's an expert in uncensored marketing + psych led sales and helps her clients embrace their most authentic selves in their marketing. We talk about balancing a part time job with your business, how to build diligence as a business owner and the sacrifices you need to make, and millennial hustle culture vs a more Gen Z 'ease' approach. She's also worked in fashion, is a creative writer, went to private school and struggled with over-achievement, so we discovered we are basically the same person xo You can follow along with Yaz here!

Don't forget to tag me - @theunapologeticmentor [https://instagram.com/theunapologeticmentor] <3 I am also hosting a FREE MASTERCLASS called "The Work" THIS Thursday 2nd March... There's an epidemic in the personal development industry of  “surface level work”. Affirmations, vision boards, the lot. These techniques all have their place and don’t get me wrong I LOVE using them. But they don’t lead to the deeper healing. The way I see it is it’s like you have a big open wound and you’re putting a tiny band aid on it. The truth is? You’re not going DEEP enough. Let’s say you struggle with self-confidence and so you say these affirmations every day saying “I am strong, I am confident.” Guess why they don’t work? Because you don’t really believe them. To ACTUALLY heal this you have to commit to doing the deeper work. But what does this look like? Inside the FREE masterclass, we’ll be looking at: ✨ what is “the work”? ✨ how do you get comfortable with your shadow self? ✨ how do you ACTUALLY heal your wounds? ✨ short term vs long term mindset work ✨ where does your Inner Child come in?

I am calling in the most aligned, empowered woman who has already DECIDED that she is ready to up-level in every area of her life. It's for you if this is what you're looking to call in: 🌪 you've become  BFFS with ur intuition 🤞 and use your inner “knowing” as your guide to do what you ACTUALLY want in business — trusting that the RIGHT people will stay. 🌪 you’ve activated your most wildly UNAPOLOGETIC self that couldn’t give a ✨flying fuck✨ what Maisie thinks because she ain’t paying the bills… and no one else is for that matter. 💁🏻‍♀️ 🌪 you no longer place yourself in a box (cough, niche) cause u FINALLY feel brave enough to share ur ❤️ & speak up for the causes you care about. “Who am I to say this?” Becomes ➡️ “who am I NOT to say this???” 🌪 You feel JUST as successful with 1 client as with 5 clients. You keep going, EVEN when it doesn’t look like things are “wOrKiNg”… because you have a DEEP trust in yourself + you KNOW your business is sustainable. 🌪 You wake up every day wildly in LOVE with your life… so there’s no more going on IG stories thinking “okay.. WTF do I say?” You’ve opened up the tap🚰 of abundance and the content ideas can’t STOP pouring out of you… cause you’re living your truth. 🌪 Yes you want to help people but you also DEEPLY know the value in what you do… and you KNOW you’re hella good at it. Once you know and truly embody your authority… so does everyone else. 💁🏻‍♀️ If that spot's yours - message me. We could be chatting in Voxer tomorrow!!! https://www.instagram.com/theunapologeticmentor [https://www.instagram.com/theunapologeticmentor/] Nina xo

50. The Media is Lying to You

This is the most raw and vulnerable I've ever been in the public domain. I knew it was time to do an episode on... THE MEDIA. Told through a more nuanced lens of the awful events that are currently happening in Ukraine and the Russophobia that has grown since then (as a half Russian person). I tell the story of how I went from wanting to work as a BBC journalist to falling out of love with the media and waking up to just how one-sided it is all the way back in 2014. Inside, I discuss.. 🔥 Why I haven't watched the mainstream news in 3 years, and why I don't feel a need to 🔥 The language used the in the media to perpetuate the idea of "us" vs "them" 🔥 How the media focuses on one scapegoat and just how much you don't hear about in the mainstream media - why are some causes SO supported, but others aren't? I tell a LOT of personal stories about how my own family were scared to leave the house, how Russian TV channels were removed, how hate crimes against Russian people increased, how supermarket items with the word 'Russian' on were banned... no, this was not communist North Korea, this was in the UK in 2022. This was an INCREDIBLY difficult episode for me to record and you can hear just how emotional I am throughout most of it -- naturally I was very scared of repercussions, but I felt a larger social responsibility to share this story. I welcome healthy debate and discussion in my DMs, but please keep it positive.  I'd love to hear your thoughts and main takeaways over at - @theunapologeticmentor [https://instagram.com/theunapologeticmentor] <3 Love for everyone always.
