So you may have seen my social media posts, or figured things out from the title of this episode, but ‘Now, That’s What I Call Business’ is ending...or at least going on indefinite hiatus.
There has been a lot of things going on behind the scenes, and it’s taken me a while but I have made this decision after much thought.
BUT! We’re going to go out with one last episode and there is a lot of stuff to know before we wrap this podcast up.
In this episode I share:
My reasons for ending the podcast
Why I’m continuing the green pod and what to expect
A big incrediballs update

I am just back from my trip to the UK for Incrediballs, and I have updates! Also, on this episode of 'Now, That's What I Call Business' we're talking how to grow your business faster, and more profitably. But maybe not in the way you think.

If women-led startups outperform their male counterparts, why do we only give them 2% of investment...?
Now, that’s what I call Business.
03/09/24 • 16 min
Today we’re talking about the infuriating world of investment and shining a light on women in business in honour of International Women’s day.
Despite the fact that statistics show just how successful women led business can be, investment in them is pitifully low and if we don’t change the status quo, that is probably not going to change.
This is not an anti men episode, or an ‘us vs them’ discussion it is just sharing what studies have found about the under representation and support of women led businesses.
In this episode I share:
The disappointing requests I received for international women’s day
A horrendous statistic that shows how little investment there is in women led businesses
How women are disadvantaged by industry preferences
How women are disadvantaged by bias
The benefits of investing in women led companies
The shocking way that businesses who receive support from women targeted funds are treated afterwards
My advice to women on how to combat the problem of bias
How to be good at pitching
How we can all work to help change the status quo
The importance of mentoring
Key Quotes
“Plenty of research has shown that identical business pitches are received way more favourably when they are delivered by men than when they are by women.”
“The underinvestment in women led start ups is not a reflection of their potential or their performance but a systemic issue rooted in bias and weird outdated perceptions.”
“If you can explain your pitch to a 5 year old and they can tell you what your business does, job done, you've nailed it.”

Let's talk Founder Wellbeing... and how to Balance Business and your Brain
Now, that’s what I call Business.
10/12/23 • 24 min
Embarking on the entrepreneurial journey with Ethique and Incrediballs has been a whirlwind of triumphs, stumbles, and invaluable lessons. This is an honest (and deeper than expected) chat about founder well-being and mental health. Throughout this episode, the curtain is drawn back on my personal pathways of establishing boundaries, fostering resilience, and forming supportive networks, revealing that prioritizing mental health isn’t merely a personal benefit, but a fundamental pillar for business success and sustainability too. Because if you're burned out, or simply not feeling your best, you can't do your best for your business. Find us online:
