  • Introducing Eulah!
    2026/09/02

    The cat's finally out of the bag! After months of hiding logos, dodging your questions, and biting my tongue every time you asked what "Roch Builds a Brand" was really about… I can finally tell you. Welcome to Eulah!


    In this episode I'm telling you the full story: where the name came from, the Korean-inspired formulas the whole brand is built around, and how we've somehow managed to bring it to you for £8–£12 a product.


    We're launching with 12 products including a gua sha companion that I am OBSESSED with. This is the biggest launch I have ever done and I’m so excited to share it with you.


    Sign up at eulahskin.com to be the first to hear more, get early access to products, and find out how to meet Rochelle at launch.

    2026/08/05

    This week, we’re joined by Georgie Le Roux, founder and CEO of Gigi & Olive, the luxury bridal and personalised gifting brand that has grown through four major business pivots and over 85% year-on-year growth.


    In this episode, Georgie shares the behind-the-scenes reality of building a product based business from manually managing personalised orders in Google Sheets to scaling a luxury brand, navigating operational chaos, and the £30,000 Meta Ads mistake that nearly derailed Black Friday.


    We also dive into why profit matters more than revenue, how to know when it's time to pivot, building a community-first brand, and the founder lessons no one talks about.


    In this episode, we cover:

    • The £30,000 Meta Ads horror story every founder should hear
    • Why Gigi & Olive pivoted four times before finding its winning model
    • The operational reality of running a personalised product business
    • Why chasing revenue can be a dangerous growth strategy
    • How customer obsession became Gigi & Olive's biggest competitive advantage
    • The Gigi & Olive podcast is launching September 2026
    • Building a luxury brand through community, not just marketing
    • The mindset shifts every founder needs to scale with confidence


    Whether you're building an e-commerce brand, scaling a business, or simply love hearing the real stories behind successful founders, this episode is packed with honest lessons and practical insights.
