Goodbye 2020! Hello 2021!Wow! What a year!!!! Bushfires, Kobe, Covid, BLM, Trump overthrown, inequalities highlighted…...No one would have predicted the mess that was 2020. How much has life changed? How much heartbreak and challenge. But also how much opportunity and recognition of God's beauty and life's fragility. 2020 was a year unlike anything anyone has ever seen.Throughout 2020 The Start Line Podcast was able to showcase some headline issues which otherwise may not have been aired. We also had the opportunity to sit on panels or guest on other podcast platforms to discuss those issues. The fact that we were able to do this and share these discussions with you keeps us humble and grateful.So it's a time of reflection for The Start Line Girls. In this episode we look back at our podcast episodes over 2020, as we highlight our favourite bits, comment on the events of the year and give thanks to you, our listeners, and to all those who participated in each of our episodes throughout 2020! We are hopeful for 2021 and pray it brings a better year for all of us!

It's Part 2 of our specials celebrating black businesses to reclaim Black Friday and celebrate #BlackPoundDay in the UK which is the first Saturday of the month in the UK and for this episode we speak to our lovely neighbours Ade Adeleke and Carmelita Goodwin, owners and managers of Stones Gym in Thornton Heath, south London. This incredible couple of 32 years purchased a gym 14 years ago, as they had a vision to own their own business which would enable them to blend their skills and passion with a business which creates an safe, supportive and inclusive environment for their local community and members who frequent the gym. Ade and Carmelita tell us about how they met (Hammersmith Palais was the spot back in the day wasn't it??), what inspired them to buy the gym, the challenges and the joys of running their own business. We also hear about the difficulties during Covid-19 and their plans for 2021, as well as why Ade had to change his name to Michael...The Start Line Girls (who hate going to gyms) absolutely loved speaking with this amazing couple and were certainly convinced about attending Stones Gym, just to get the experience of working out in a warm and nurturing environment (the ladies gym sounds wonderful). We look forward to getting round there!You can follow Stones Gym on Instagram on @stonesthegym or check out their website: https://www.stonesgym.co.ukWe'd love to hear from you, so please follow us on Instagram, Twitter and Facebook by searching for @thestartlinepod and subscribe to the show on your favourite podcast provider or our website - https://www.thestartlinepod.com!

This week's episode is all about the changing face of fashion and how 2020 has pushed the industry to be more inclusive, accessible and digital. We caught up with fashion blogger and influencer Natalie Lee (@stylemesunday) to talk about the evolution of the fashion industry, how bloggers and the rise of social media originally pushed fashion to be more inclusive, and how this year is forcing fashion to make even more of an effort to open up seats at the table. We spoke about building a Black business pre and post pandemic, specifically the importance of understanding your worth and value. And finally, we got her thoughts on the rise of Black Pound Day and the need to speak about the influencer pay gap!

Black Pound day (which is the first Saturday of each month), And Tyler Perry being a Billionaire. She is waiting for the Tyler Perry Autobiography. *Just to reiterate the black girl finance podcast does not give financial advice, the opinions are those of the guests and host. *.

We are lucky to be joined by amazing entrepreneurs Reiss, Yesgurl (Francesca & Annette) and Alicia-Pearl. In the second episode of our Black Lives Matter series, our guests introduce their creative hustle, share their take on Black Pound Day and their experiences during lockdown. We also touch on the importance of having multiple streams of income, why you should pursue your dream job, mentorship and the power of networking. Reiss, Yesgurl and Alicia-Pearl also mention their reasons as to why some Black businesses tend not to last longer than others and what we can do to ensure money continues to circulate within the Black community.

Black Pound Day aims to put more money into black-owned businesses. It's been set up by So Solid Crew's Swiss, inspired by George Floyd and the Black Lives Matter Protests. The Next Episode investigates whether Black Pound Day will work. Hosted by Linda Adey. Soundtracked by BBC Music Introducing.
Anissa, Linda E, Luanda Yasmin and Sophie Hannah ask whether the UK public can be trusted to maintain social distancing, what constitutes sexual assault and why it takes some women a long time to report abuse, whether the Windrush generation are owed more than just thanks and compensation from the UK government, and if “buying black” truly supports the community when raw materials and products are manufactured elsewhere.--------------------------------------- FOLLOW THE CONVERSATION #EthnicallySpeakingInstagram: http://www.instagram.com/unitedmelanincoFacebook: https://facebook.com/unitedmelanincoTwitter: http://instagram.com/unitedmelanincoLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/unitedmelaninco/YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/c/UnitedMelaninGroupGet in touch with us: ethnicallyspeaking@unitedmelaningroup.com---------------------------------------- LINKS MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE https://unitedmelaningroup.com/es003(Website – Show notes) https://www.ontherecordfilm.co.uk/watch-at-home(Film – On the record – Documentary)https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episodes/m000jyxy/i-may-destroy-you?seriesId=m000jyxv(TV series – I May Destroy You – Michaela Coel on BBC iPlayer)https://www.windrushday.org.uk/(Website – Windrush Day)https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/windrush-lessons-learned-review(PDF – Windrush Lessons Learned Review: independent review by Wendy Williams – Report)https://www.instagram.com/ezewraps/ (Satin-lined African Headscarfs – @ezewraps Instagram)SUPPORT FOR THOSE AFFECTED BY SEXUAL ASSAULTWhere you go for help can depend on what's available in your area and what you want to do.

The Take boys are back with this latest episode, entitled “Is Covid Over?” Settiling nicely into their regular Sunday night Instagram live slot, Daine Says and Dj Illness kick things off with a review of “Black Pound Day”. They discuss its merits and how effectively such black community led purchasing power can be utilised going forwards. Then it's into the major talking point of the week; Is Covid Over? The latest relaxing of the restrictions on distancing and travel gave rise to mass gatherings on beaches across the country. The boys compare the relaxed approach in some areas of the country compared to the forceful regulation by police in others. Mentions are given to the Kanye Wests latest announcements and the special Verzuz TV “celebration between John Legend and Alicia Keys, marking Juneteenth. Trust us when we say, this episode is NOT TO BE MISSED! If you liked this episode, tell three friends. The boys love what they do, but you, the audience, make it worthwhile!
