In this episode of the Shine Bright Academy Podcast, I speak with Cindy Gallop, a brand and business innovator, consultant, coach and keynote speaker. Mainly she is the visionary founder of MakeLoveNotPorn, the world's first user-generated, human-curated social sex video sharing platform.

Cindy shares her journey from a successful career in advertising to pioneering sex tech, emphasising serendipity over strict planning, and advocating for women empowerment.

She discusses the importance of real-world sex education, the challenges of running a disruptive business, and the personal philosophy that has driven her success.

Cindy also offers insights into leveraging LinkedIn for business growth and encourages a rethinking of aspirational culture.
