Working Hard with Grace Beverley

This is an episode for anyone who wants to build incredible businesses. I dive into how Olamide built Topicals from scratch, what it was like raising millions as a young Black founder, her bold move to acquire cult haircare brand Bread, and her best advice for anyone dreaming of following in her footsteps. + OLAMIDE OLOWE IG: https://www.instagram.com/olamideaolowe/?hl=en Forbes: https://www.forbes.com/profile/olamide-olowe/ Topicals: https://mytopicals.com/?srsltid=AfmBOoqV6bJqKZWyz-BuiquRNuhlZwlwxVu2dyRzfRkOzS7_Q14XxOsH Bread: https://breadbeautysupply.com/?srsltid=AfmBOorzhOHOSEHsbHcIoWQBMTpakeMqvPJNmJZiYQkPxOBuXEWFafLN CODB: https://thecostofdoingbusiness.co/ + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workinghard...

Today we’re unpacking what the winter arc actually is, why it’s taken over, and how we can make it work for us without feeling like we’ve failed if were not suddenly new people by next year!

From side hustles to workout plans to the endless new Notion boards, we all chase the high of beginning something fresh, then abandon it when the shine wears off. And it turns out that’s not a personality flaw, it’s neuroscience. So in this episode, I’m breaking down dopamine loops, the studies that explain them, and the tricks you can use to finally become someone who actually finishes what they start.

Today’s guest is someone I’ve wanted to have on for so long, Sophie Tea. If you’ve been anywhere near Instagram or TikTok in the last few years, you’ll know Sophie’s bold and colourful art, which she’s shared with her millions of followers and sells out around the world.  What I love most about Sophie is that she didn’t take the safe path. She didn’t go to art school, she was snubbed by the art world, and yet now she has one of the biggest art empires in the UK.  Sophie’s Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/sophieteaart/ + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbmU3LTFlQnFubHJUclFEYWV5dk1hZzFrdlhBQXxBQ3Jtc0ttMHlUNEhzOXgwQ2ZuNXlsaW1zajl4Vm10XzdMeFNxcVdPT09VOXlqX2NyN0tUQzdYT1RpMEU3Y0MyUFkwR2FoR2k1WmxVYUxsV2lfZnVaRFl4S2s5Q3puVGZvR0o1TGJTY3RQZ0R4SjJSMUdUMUUyaw&q=https%3A%2F%2Fgraceb.myflodesk.com%2Fk0sfhlac34&v=lPytCfOwAyA] + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: / workinghard.  [https://www.youtube.com/redirect?event=video_description&redir_token=QUFFLUhqbUdCV0ZpaFZJd284MXp5R20zeklmbTVMOVkwZ3xBQ3Jtc0tsS0tBWFN2cVZVa3ZMZU5pSmtmWEw3R0U1dTdvTXRHZEsxTEJFc2tuUzBJUlo4YWFzQTl4aWFlTUdKRVhiMWNNM3Q1dUVzd2ZxMEVJLVRBS0lXSlFUemZvejltMkRnbUk5OXBqSmZHX0pRcVNPa1YyUQ&q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.instagram.com%2Fworkinghard..&v=lPytCfOwAyA].

I have had the honour of interviewing so many incredible successful women on this podcast and when you sit opposite top performers week in week out, not only are you humbled, but the habits that they all share become pretty obvious. So, this week I sat down and wrote them all out, and tried to find as many examples and studies to back them up, so we can all learn as much as possible from them! So, if you’ve ever wondered what makes the difference between women who thrive in their careers, their personal lives, and their leadership, and those who burn out or stall, this is the episode for you!! + READING LIST Lisa Orbe Austin, Own Your Greatness: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Own-Your-Greatness-Lisa-Orbe-Austin/dp/1646040244 James Clear, Atomic Habits: https://jamesclear.com/atomic-habits Mel Robbins, Let Them Theory: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Let-Them-Theory-Life-Changing-Millions/dp/1788176189 + SIGN UP TO THE WORKING HARD NEWSLETTER: https://graceb.myflodesk.com/k0sfhlac34 + FOLLOW THE PODCAST Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/workinghard...
