Needing guide-ance for your mortgage? Look no further than Claire Williamson. Claire's been a mortgage advisor for 7 years and is now the Director and Shareholder of My Mortgage, based in Waikato. A proud rural wahine, Claire's passion is helping rural women to succeed in life and in business. She co-hosts a podcast with Rural Women NZ, called "Black Heels and Tractor Wheels." Being in Auckland, it's easy to forget sometimes that we are a farming country. Rural communities are the backbone of our economy, and it was an awesome opportunity for us to highlight such an integral part of our culture!
This week we're introducing our very own marketing coordinator Soph as a host on Guide! Soph spoke with the wonderful Hiri Eketone, a bass player studying music and 1/7th of Kaloula, her very own band. Hiri and Soph, both Māori women, speak about reconnecting with Te Reo through music. They discuss the industry and the confusing concept of receiving rewards based on culture, gender, and background rather than your skill. An insightful and inspiring conversation, we hope you enjoy.
We had the please of sitting down with Tom and Henry Mills from Ladiesmile. The brothers took us through their story of how they found music and how this new era of creating music has opened up so many doors to meet a range of other people.
This week we spoke to our new friends The Dawns, an up-and-coming band made up of four mates with a collective passion for music.

This week we're bringing in the big guns... Yes, it's The Boss himself, Stanley Henry, founder & MD of The Attention Seeker. And now founder at The Attention Seeker Studios! This year, after realising the gap in the market around quality studio experiences, he and his partner Claire took on the massive task of creating the space and the product to meet that demand. The result is a studio aimed toward experience, luxury and COFFEE. As the construction ties up and we start moving into a functioning studio, it's awesome to sit down and have a proper discussion about the process and the reasonings behind going down this route.
This week on Guide podcast, we have Bella Rafflyn from Coast Arcade! Bella is a young up-and-coming Glendowie-based musician, and she's one to keep your eye on. From a young age, Bella's tenacity and love for music has kept her driven to make music. Through band quest, rock quest, bands disbanding and a stint at university, music has always and will always be her priority. Listen along!
Wherever there is vulnerable women there is going to be this issue of period poverty. This is what Reemi founder Emily realised while working with Syrian refugees in Hong Kong. From then on she had a mission - to start breaking down the stigmas world wide surrounding women's health and get period products to wherever they are needed. It was really fascinating to get Emily's insight on how to open up the conversation in Aotearoa and worldwide. Listen along!

Trying to grow in the music world in this day and age is complicated to navigate. Digitisation has meant there are so many different aspects and skills that musicians need to grow. Isaac's shares with us one of his goals to create a space for artists to be able to talk on their own terms and dictate their own culture, along with many other stories along the way. Part two coming next week!
Once we figure out how to use it... The Attention Seeker is adding TikTok to their services, and Stan and Drew chat about TikTok as a growing platform. There are many people out there, like Drew, who don't yet understand the breadth of its reach and use. Stan predicts a shift into more TikTok-style videos on LinkedIn and is getting ready to move his clients towards that style of content.
This week Everything is Grey has gone international as Drew tunes in from Ojai, California! In this episode, Stan and Drew are joined by their first guest, CEO, and Co-founder of Influential U, John Patterson.

Chris talks about how his photography skills evolved and the importance of understanding the set and the environment while giving us an insider perspective on what it's like to be a tour photographer. It's such a pleasure to have Chris on board the team and use his unique skill set to make our clients look like rock stars!
It's been a few weeks since our leading ladies have taken the main stage together, but Sian and Shreya are back and better than ever. This week the discussion is on shoulding - the cognitive distortion of making statements of what should be true, as opposed to reality. It's hard when things don't meet the expectations of your 'shoulds'. But it's important to recognise and understand your boundaries to achieve them.
Is your client ready to sign on the dotted line? Are you ready to let them? Contracting is an essential part of business. People often don't realise how important it is to get the process right. It's easy to jump the gun and sign a client on, but there are many steps that shouldn't be missed. Working with a client can be demanding, so you have to make sure you are all on the same page to move forward.
The worlds getting back to normal post covid.... but is that a good thing? The pandemic has caused the world to slow down. Being isolated to our corner of the world has meant we've had to look to our own backyard for travel and business opportunities - and Aotearoa didn't disappoint. The dilemma Stan and Drew and many other business leaders are facing is - what business opportunities for overseas travel will provide value? It's new territory to navigate, and watching this new normal unfold will be interesting.
After Shreya and Claire's conversation last week, Claire decided to chat with the original Gen-Z TAS member, Sian about maintaining relationships and friendships in this modern age world.
40% of people are in some conversation about a career change or quitting their jobs. But will a change really bring them the happiness they think it will? If you have the right mentality there could be a lot of room for growth and development within your current job. It's all about the approach you take to things.
What does a successful relationship look like to you? We're lucky to have special guest Claire Wallace on Success Stories to talk about maintaining successful relationships. Shreya and Claire share their experiences on self-love, self-awareness, growth and even letting go of friendships/relationships. Relationships grow and adapt as you do, you need to learn to adjust your communication and your effort accordingly.
Following Drew's moment in the spotlight on Newshub, Stan and Drew ponder the tricky question - Should I be asking for a raise? It's a question that a lot of kiwis are facing. You're a hard worker; you meet all your deadlines, you're innovative, and always early. Surely you deserve that raise, right? Unfortunately, it's not quite as straightforward as that… Special guests: RJ & Patch
From prancing through the fields of the Aum festival in a cowboy hat to filming podcasts in the new Attention Seeker offices filming, Sian sits down with eCommerce Manager Josef Arnet to talk about his career journey. Josef's story can be defined as a crash course in business when straight out of university, he began to build a business with live-in coworkers.
