Today I’m thrilled to be joined by the brilliantly creative and hugely talented Audrey Elizabeth, a creative marketing mentor with a big heart, a big mission, and a refreshing take on business growth.

We talk about the messy magic of building a brand from the inside out, the kind that starts with trusting your truth, not just chasing goals.

In this episode, we go deep on:

• What it really means to be visible when your brand is personal

• How to stay resilient when business isn’t quite going according to plan

• Why joy and creativity aren’t distractions, they’re fuel

• And how to keep evolving without losing yourself in the process

If you’ve ever second-guessed how you show up, feared being judged, or wondered if you're “doing it right” this one’s going to feel like a pep talk from your big sister, and a strategy session all in one.

Before I rebranded my podcast, I sat down with the brilliant Chantal, coach, mama, and all-round wise woman who opened up about her journey into understanding the nervous system (and trust me, she makes it all make sense). We talked about why emotional regulation isn’t just for grown-ups, how overwhelm can creep in when you’re juggling parenting and life, and why being trauma-informed matters more than ever.

But it’s not all science and self-care. We also dove into personal branding in the age of AI, how to show up as your real self online, and what Chantal’s planning next for her biz (spoiler: it involves a shiny new website and a VIP offer you’ll want to keep your eye on).

Whether you're a parent, business owner, or just someone trying to keep it together without losing yourself, join us for this fascinating chat!

Ever struggled to explain what you actually do in one sentence? Or felt like your story wasn't "interesting enough" to share?

In this episode, my guest Philippa Ross and I dissect the messy middle of authentic visibility, the part where you question the labels, navigate the pressure to be polished, and wonder if anyone’s even listening.

Philippa’s own personal journey includes everything from podcasting and personal development to a family history rooted in literal polar exploration. We examine what it really takes to build a brand with depth, communicate with clarity, and show up when it feels uncomfortable.

From the emotional impact of negative feedback and the importance of separating personal feelings from professional criticism, we’re covering the real stuff behind the glossy content.

There’s some incredible personal stories in this one that you won’t want to miss!

In today’s episode, I’m chatting with the brilliant Eve Stanway, a divorce and breakup coach, a psychotherapist, and the author of Conversations at the Shoreline.

We go deep around the fears that keep us quiet, especially those rooted in childhood or big life changes like divorce. We talk about how those experiences can mess with your confidence and make visibility feel way harder than it needs to be.

We also chat about the pressure of public speaking, the emotional issues behind showing up online, and why finding, and actually using your voice is so important if you want a brand that really connects with people.

Oh, and if you’ve ever thought “I’m not ready to be visible” this one’s for you!

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing all the things - posting, planning, tweaking your tone of voice, and still wondering why your brand just isn’t “landing,” this episode is for you.

In this solo episode, Amanda Jane breaks down the truth about brand personality and why it’s not just a mood or a marketing buzzword. It’s the real magic behind content that connects, visibility that feels natural, and a brand that finally feels like you.

You’ll learn:

• Why your brand personality is already in you (no reinvention required)

• The biggest mindset shift that helps you show up with more clarity and less second-guessing

• How to stop forcing your content and start building real audience connection

• What it means to turn your personality into a strategy and why most people skip this step

This is your permission slip to stop overthinking and start turning up the volume on you.

Have you ever sent out a press release and thought… “Well, let’s see what happens”?

My guest Shauna, did just that and what happened next was a total game-changer.

One carefully crafted release led to hundreds of thousands of pounds in media coverage, interviews across Europe, and a massive leap in visibility for her brand. And the most amazing part? It wasn’t even part of some big PR strategy. It was accidental. Organic. And unbelievably powerful.

In today’s episode, we’re exploring the story behind the story. From launching Ireland’s first frozen baby food brand to scaling it into major UK retailers, all while navigating Brexit, motherhood, and live TV interviews just weeks after giving birth, this conversation is a masterclass in resilience, visibility, and the kind of brave, imperfect action that builds real momentum and maximum impact.

Whether you’re feeling stuck with your content, unsure how to show up, or scared to share your story, this one’s for you. DO NOT miss it!
