This week, Laura and Holly are joined by Charlene Flanagan, Co-Founder of Ella & Jo and the brand-new men’s skincare brand Ryan Jones Skin!

Charlene chats about the journey of building Ella & Jo from just one product into the successful beauty brand it is today, launching an entirely new skincare brand for men, and the challenges of marketing skincare to a whole new audience.

From managing a team of 16 and navigating the chaos of running a growing business to balancing motherhood, Charlene opens up about the realities of being a working mum, why she believes mum guilt doesn’t belong anywhere, and the importance of being kinder to yourself.

Plus, we get into her love of creative days, fashion, romance books, Disney and, of course, a good cup of tea!

It’s a brilliant chat about business, motherhood, ambition and backing yourself.

This week Laura & Holly are joined by the lovely Elanna McGowan, Founder & CCO of Pearl Beauty!

From starting a beauty Instagram page at just 19 to building Pearl Beauty into the brand it is today, Elanna chats about her journey, the early days of YouTube, growing a loyal online audience and what it really takes to build a beauty business.

We get into all things Pearl Beauty, their 5th birthday celebrations, favourite products, what’s next for the brand and a little hint at a new skin tint 👀

Plus, Elanna shares how she ended up swapping Canada for Northern Ireland, meeting Paddy at a summer camp, life with three children and what it’s like working together as a couple.

And of course, there’s plenty of food chat! From weight training and Pilates to meal prepping, daily routines and Laura’s very questionable habit of bringing boiled eggs on a plane!

It’s a lovely catch-up full of beauty, business, motherhood, food and plenty of laughs.

This week on The Walk-In Wardrobe Podcast, we’re joined by the one and only Rebecca McKinney! ❤️

Rebecca is one of the familiar voices behind Cool FM’s breakfast show, as well as a talented stylist, presenter and fashion event producer. But this week, we’re getting to know the woman behind the mic!

Laura and Rebecca go way back to their days working together in Victoria Square, and there’s plenty of reminiscing, laughs and stories from how Rebecca went from studying Law to landing her dream job in radio.

Rebecca opens up about her recent house renovation, her love of fashion, where she gets her style inspiration, her next designer purchase and everything she’s loving this autumn. From the reality of getting up for the Cool FM breakfast show to the moment she realised Niall Horan could see her in the studio, there’s never a dull moment!

But alongside the fashion and fun, Rebecca also shares something much more personal. After losing her dad, she talks honestly about grief, the incredible bond she shared with her parents and navigating life after such a heartbreaking loss.

She also tells us about her incredible charity cycle from Paris to Banbridge, raising over £200,000 for Cash for Kids, and how the experience helped her rediscover her self-worth. ❤️

Plus, we chat dream podcast guests, beauty treatments, Vinted finds, life in Paris, The Diplomat, Ted Lasso and why Rebecca is ready to embrace a new chapter and make her dad proud.

It’s a conversation full of laughs, honesty, fashion and plenty of heart. We loved having Rebecca on the podcast, and we think you’re going to love this one!
