I’m actually typing this on a plane on the way to Spain. And at the risk of inviting the smallest violin in the world to play for me, I’m absolutely shattered. This is because we have pets, and pets need house-sitters. As I started to prep the house over...
Hey! This is ‘future you’ calling with some tough love. Future-you is ready to launch a course, or a new product which might be the next big thing, but future-you has also just discovered that you haven't built yourself an email list. You've been meaning to get around...
Flying somewhere recently, I realised I'd forgotten my laptop charger. Again. Forget about avocado toast and expensive coffees, I could probably put a deposit on a new house just with the amount of money I've spent on eye-wateringly expensive tech purchases at...
My little brother lives in Los Angeles, so I'm lucky enough to visit once a year, and when I'm there, I like to check up on one of my marketing heroes. Let me introduce you to Dr Kenneth K Lee, aka the genius behind Total Sleep Dentistry. I've never met the man, no...
It's not just busy season right now for a lot of you, it's crazy season (hang in there wedding photographers!), with some of you cramming 2 years of postponed business into one short summer season. Others are super busy with bookings now that business confidence is...
Let’s start with a tale of two budding entrepreneurs - yes, my kids, who I am willing to publicly humiliate for the sake of making a point. A few years ago, they got seriously into cute Japanese stationery and decided to launch their very own monthly...

You’re not for everyone and that’s ok. As a recovering people pleaser, I’ve found accepting this concept very hard and the honest answer is that I’m still not immune to it. It’s a very common feeling, particularly when you run a business that you pour your heart and...
Last week I was in San Diego for a marketing conference and one of the joys of a work trip like that is hanging out with like-minded friends and just plain having fun. We rode electric scooters and drank margaritas in cool bars and on the last day we met up for pizza....
Last week, I met my eldest for sushi in central London before I flew out to America. We met at the restaurant, shared a cocktail and I took a photo of them with their glorious pink hair and posted it on social media. ‘How lovely!’ everyone commented. And...
For a long time, I was niched into the photography market and whilst having a niche is incredibly helpful when it comes to attracting and converting your ideal client, you need to actually put yourself out there and build a network in real life. NOT EVERYTHING YOU...
