What season are you in right now?Maybe business is booming and creativity feels effortless. Maybe everything feels quiet, uncertain, uninspired, or painfully slow. Or maybe you're somewhere in between, trying to figure out what the heck is changing.In this episode of Magic Made, Megan and Chrissy are talking about the seasons of creative business, entrepreneurship, and life, and why a slower season doesn't automatically mean something has gone wrong.We live in a culture that loves the hustle. More clients. More content. More growth. More productivity. KEEP GOING. But just like nature moves through winter, spring, summer, and fall, our businesses, creativity, energy, and lives move through seasons too.And every season asks something different of us.We're diving into how to recognize when it's time to push forward and when it's time to rest, why change can feel so uncomfortable even when it's completely natural, and how to stop attaching a negative story to every lull, pivot, or uncertain chapter.We also talk about burnout, navigating hard life seasons while running a creative business, surrendering control, affirmations and mindset, finding magic in the mundane, and the simple reminder Chrissy returns to during difficult chapters:Nothing lasts forever.Megan also shares the “10 seconds at a time” mentality that has stuck with her for years and how tiny moments of courage, movement, or simply noticing a little glimmer of magic can help us move through seasons that feel especially heavy.Because your winter doesn't erase everything you created during your summer.Your pause doesn't mean you failed.And you don't need anyone else's permission to be exactly where you are.00:00 The Seasons of Creative Business02:31 Why Hustle Culture Makes Slow Seasons Feel Wrong05:08 Are You Ignoring the Signs to Slow Down?07:51 Why Change Feels So Uncomfortable10:46 Every Season Serves a Purpose12:58 What Can a Hard Season Teach You?15:55 Why Is Rest So Hard?18:08 Nothing Lasts Forever20:09 Getting Through Hard Seasons 10 Seconds at a Time21:57 Using Mindset & Affirmations to Keep Going24:13 Finding Magic in the Mundane26:22 Stop Asking “Why Is This Happening to Me?”28:09 Is It Happening TO You… or Just Around You?30:05 Remember What You've Already Survived31:28 Give Yourself Permission to Own Your Season33:49 A Reminder for Whatever Season You're In

What if movement wasn't about burning calories, changing your body, or forcing yourself through another workout?What if it was about feeling more alive?In this episode of Magic Made, Megan and Chrissy are talking about the power of movement and why moving your body can impact so much more than physical fitness. From dance and yoga to walking, stretching, running, or simply moving around your kitchen, movement can become a tool for reconnecting with your body, shifting your energy, clearing your mind, building confidence, and getting your creativity flowing again.Megan shares how returning to dance later in life changed her relationship with her body, confidence, and what she believed she was capable of. Chrissy shares how running and yoga helped her discover a clearer, calmer mind and a deeper connection between movement, creativity, and presence.Together, we explore why movement doesn't have to look impressive to matter, how easy it is to become disconnected from our bodies, and why doing something as simple as taking a walk, stretching on the floor, dancing to one song, or trying something new can create momentum far beyond the physical.We also talk about movement and mental health, aging, confidence, creativity, energy, body image, getting out of autopilot, and the stories that convince us we're too old, too stiff, too tired, too out of shape, or simply "not the kind of person" who does certain things.Because maybe the goal isn't to move your body so you can change it.Maybe it's to move your body so you can experience it.✨ IN THIS EPISODE:• Why movement is about much more than exercise or fitness• The connection between movement, mood, energy, and creativity• How dance and yoga help us feel grounded and present• Movement as a tool for confidence and self-trust• Why small amounts of daily movement still matter• Returning to movement as we get older• Getting out of autopilot and challenging your body and brain• Letting go of judgment around what movement "should" look like• Finding a form of movement you actually enjoy• How physical momentum can spill into creativity, business, and everyday life• Challenging the stories that tell us what our bodies can and cannot do00:00 Why Movement Is About More Than Fitness01:06 Megan's Lifelong Relationship With Dance04:07 Finding the Movement That Makes You Feel Free05:02 Movement, Energy & Creativity07:16 Why It's So Easy to Stay Stuck08:00 Movement, Mental Health & Brain Health09:33 Discovering What Your Body Is Capable Of10:29 Returning to Movement as You Get Older13:54 Why Movement Matters for Your Body16:05 Stop Treating Your Body Like Something to Fix17:26 How Movement Builds Confidence & Creativity19:24 Small Daily Movement Makes a Difference20:41 What Stories Are Keeping You Stuck?22:04 Simple Ways to Move More Every Day22:54 Get Off Autopilot & Challenge Your Brain24:14 If You Don't Move It, You Lose It27:20 Stop the Stories That Keep You Stagnant27:35 Movement Creates Energy & Momentum29:15 Movement Is for EVERY Body29:47 How Are You Celebrating Your Body?

What if the thing creating more abundance in your life isn't working harder...but actually having more fun?In this episode of Magic Made, Megan and Chrissy are talking about abundance, flow, creativity, and why stepping away from constant hustle can sometimes open the door to more opportunity, clarity, confidence, and connection.And no, we're not talking about abundance as just money.We're talking about the kind of abundance that shows up when you feel grounded, inspired, present, creative, and connected to your own life again.From DIY projects and painting furniture to slowing down, walking meditations, gratitude, time with your kids, and simple moments of play, we explore the unexpected ways we personally get back into flow.We also get into the pressure entrepreneurs and creatives feel to always be productive, the panic that can hit when work slows down, and why grinding harder isn't always the answer.00:00 What If Abundance Was a Hot Glue Gun?00:41 Abundance Is More Than Money01:45 Megan's DIY “Flow State”03:17 Chrissy's Way Back Into Abundance05:06 Trusting the Process06:18 Stop Making It Bigger Than It Is07:00 Change Your Space, Change Your Energy07:52 The Power of Being Present09:00 Simple Grounding Practices10:24 Why Creativity Feels So Centering11:23 The Problem With Trying to Do Everything13:03 Scrolling vs. Creating13:47 When Opportunity Shows Up Unexpectedly14:20 Stop Gripping for the Next Client15:19 How to Keep Your Momentum16:40 Why Hustle Isn't Sustainable17:07 Permission to Let Go19:29 “I Am Most Abundant When I'm Having Fun”20:30 How to Create More Fun in Your Life21:55 Gratitude as an Abundance Tool22:20 You Do Have Time for Play24:00 Presence Can Be This Simple25:18 Don't Put Fun on Your To-Do List26:00 Your Invitation to Create More FlowSometimes, the shift comes when you stop gripping so tightly.In this episode:What abundance really means beyond moneyWhy creativity can help you get back into flowThe connection between fun, trust, and opportunityHow slowing down can actually help you move forwardWhy presence is one of the most underrated tools for creativesThe problem with constant hustle and grind cultureWhat to do when business feels slowWhy making time for fun is not “wasting time”Using gratitude to shift your mindsetHow simple moments can create more grounded energyWhy Megan believes she is most abundant when she is having fun and creating for funIf you've been feeling stuck, overworked, uninspired, or like you're forcing every next step, this episode is your permission slip to loosen your grip a little.

The author, businesswoman, socialite, and former fashion designer has been a fixture of American design culture for over four decades.Editor's Note: Carolyne Roehm shut down her fashion company in 1991 (not 1993).

Emma Grede is the businesswoman behind major fashion brands including Skims and Good American, which she co-founded with Kim Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian, respectively. Last year Forbes included her on their list of America's Richest Self-Made Women, with an estimated net worth of $405 million.She grew up in Plaistow, East London, the eldest of four daughters. Her parents separated when she was five and she was raised by her mum, who worked long hours as a trader at an investment bank. Emma took on a lot of the responsibility at home caring for her sisters. Dyslexia meant she struggled at school, but she found satisfaction in a string of part-time jobs, from delivering newspapers to making sandwiches in a deli. She later dropped out of the London College of Fashion to pursue a career in the industry, and by her mid-twenties she had founded her first company. She made her name brokering deals between celebrities and brands that included signing Natalie Portman as the face of Dior. In 2016 she founded an inclusive denim brand called Good American with Khloé Kardashian, and in 2019 she launched the shapewear brand Skims with Kim Kardashian. Lately her success has led her out of the boardroom and into the spotlight with guest appearances on Dragon's Den, and the US equivalent Shark Tank, as well as launching a podcast and writing a memoir. Emma lives in Los Angeles with her husband and business partner Jens, and they have four children.Presenter: Lauren Laverne Producer: Hannah Hufford and Christine PawlowskyDesert Island Discs has cast away many fashion leaders to the island over the years including Stella McCartney, Vivienne Westwood and Paul Smith.

Send us Fan MailDebbie Davies takes us right back to the start, when recruitment meant Yellow Pages, walk-in candidates, business lists on CDs, and learning by doing. From there, we dig into the moments that shaped her leadership: the work ethic and resilience she developed growing up on a farm, the impact of experiencing a management style that didn't align, and the decision to stay true to her values, especially integrity. We also explore how leadership changes when you step into CEO-level responsibility, where strategy, profitability, continuity and decision-making can't be avoided and where you can't afford to bottleneck the business by trying to be across everything.At Beaumont People, Debbie shares why the agency doubles down on specialisation in the for-purpose sector and how a clear niche supports stronger client relationships, candidate outcomes, and team alignment. We unpack culture versus performance, how to deal with rumours quickly, and why managing high performers can be harder than managing anyone else, especially when burnout risk creeps in. If you're a recruiter, team leader, agency owner, or aspiring CEO, you'll leave with practical guidance on specialisation, reputation, and getting back in front of clients.If you found this valuable, subscribe, share it with a recruiter who needs it, and leave us a review so more people can find the show.Support the show· Our Website is: xrecruiter.io

What if some of the advice you've been faithfully following is actually the thing keeping you stuck?In this episode of Magic Made, Megan and Chrissy are unpacking the best, worst, and downright limiting advice they've picked up throughout life, business, and their creative careers.From being told you have to look a certain way to be taken seriously, to the infamous "niche down" rule, we're talking about what happens when helpful guidance quietly turns into a cage.Because advice can be valuable. Mentors can change our lives. Experts can teach us incredible things. But that doesn't mean every rule, strategy, or piece of wisdom belongs in every season of your life.We get into creative freedom, authenticity, personal branding, finding your niche, breaking business rules, trusting yourself, and knowing when it's time to take an old piece of advice and lovingly show it the door.CHAPTERS:00:00 The Advice That's Keeping You Stuck01:16 Why We Take Advice So Literally03:17 You're Allowed to Break the Rules04:15 The Business Advice That Kept Megan Small06:25 Being Yourself IS the Differentiator09:17 Who Are the “Business Police?”12:01 The Best Creative Advice Chrissy Ever Got13:35 The Power of Three18:02 The Worst Advice: “Niche Down”20:03 When Your Niche Starts Feeling Like a Cage21:49 Why Creators Get Stuck on Social Media24:29 When Advice Kills Your Creativity27:08 Advice Is an Invitation, Not a CageIn this episode:Why we take advice from experts so literallyThe business advice that kept Megan playing smallWhy being yourself can actually become your differentiatorChrissy's surprisingly useful "Power of Three"Why "niche down" isn't always the answerThe danger of creating for an algorithm instead of yourselfWhat happens when business advice kills creative joyHow to decide which advice is actually right for YOUWhy advice should be an invitation, not a cageYou don't have to throw away every rule or stop listening to people who know more than you. You just get to decide what stays.

What if constantly trying to become your "best self" is actually making it harder to love the person you are right now?We're big believers in growth, healing, learning, therapy, and becoming more of who you want to be. But in this episode, we're asking a harder question: When does self-improvement stop supporting you and start becoming self-rejection?We talk about the endless hamster wheel of healing, self-help books, wellness advice, comparison, courses, experts, fitness goals, and the sneaky belief that happiness is waiting somewhere in the future."When I lose the weight...""When I heal this...""When my business reaches this level...""When I finally fix this part of myself..."But what happens to the version of you who's here right now?In this episode, we're talking about finding the middle ground between staying stuck and constantly treating yourself like a project that needs fixing. We unpack self-trust, personal mission statements, comparison, anxiety, listening to your own needs, and learning how to pursue growth without abandoning yourself in the process.We talk about:• Self-improvement vs. self-rejection• Why there's no finish line for healing• The "I'll be happy when..." trap• How comparison fuels self-abandonment• Knowing your WHY before chasing another goal• Why every expert doesn't have your answer• Trusting yourself again• Finding the healthy middle ground between growth and acceptance• Loving who you are while still wanting more for yourself

Artificial intelligence is everywhere, but is it making creativity better... or making everything look the same?In this episode, we're diving into the infamous "AI flyer" that seems to be taking over social media and why it's become a surprisingly emotional topic for artists, photographers, designers, and creative entrepreneurs.This isn't an anti-AI conversation. We use AI ourselves and believe it can be an incredible tool. But there's a difference between using technology to support creativity and replacing the human heart behind it.We explore why energy matters in art, why community is more valuable than convenience, and why the future of creativity depends on people continuing to create with intention.In this episode:• Why creatives are pushing back against AI-generated artwork• The difference between using AI as a tool vs. a replacement• Why photographs and artwork carry human energy• The importance of community over convenience• How creativity creates connection• Why originality still matters in businessIf you're an artist, entrepreneur, photographer, maker, designer, or simply someone who values human creativity, we'd love to hear your thoughts.

In this episode, we are joined by a leading businesswoman and marketer Sarah Su who has worked with some of the world's biggest companies to exploring the unexpected journey that led her to Islam. Together, we discuss growing up in an atheist culture, the search for meaning beyond professional success, life as a Muslim in China, and how Islam challenged everything she thought she knew about purpose, identity, and healing.

Emma Grede is a British serial entrepreneur, philanthropist, and mother of four. She is the Co-Founder and CEO of Good American, and a founding partner of SKIMS. Recognised for her achievements, Emma has been featured on Forbes' America's Richest Self-Made Women list. She made history as the first woman of colour to serve as a judge on ABC's Shark Tank. Emma joins Nuala McGovern to discuss her book Start With Yourself, a bold and empowering guide with advice on how women can build meaningful success on their own terms.Today the goverment will announce plans to boost support for foster carers. The aim is to encourage more people to provide homes for vulnerable children in England. It's the latest step in the government's drive to recruit an additional ten thousand foster carers, as they announced back in February. BBC's Social Affairs Editor, Alison Holt explains.At least 5,000 pregnancies a year in the UK end due to Termination for Medical Reasons, but the persistent taboo in society can mean that families keep it secret, in fear of other people's reactions. The stigma and silence around it mean people can feel incredibly alone in their grief and often feel excluded from the wider baby loss community, increasing their sense of isolation. July is Bereaved Parents' Awareness Month and to discuss this issue, Nuala talks to a grief coach and bereaved mother, Tanya Wilkinson and to Tommy's Co Midwifery Manager, Amina Hatia.What do you do with your wedding and or engagement rings after divorce? It's been reported that a growing number are said to be turning them into something entirely new. The so-called "divorce ring" trend is seeing women reset engagement diamonds into bold pieces that symbolise independence and a fresh start. So what's driving the trend, and what does it tell us about the changing meaning of jewellery after marriage? Nuala is joined by gemmologist and jewellery expert, Helen Dimmock and author and jewellery historian Rachel Church, to discuss.Presenter: Nuala McGovern Producer: Simon Richardson

Sitting at the helm of a much-loved, globally-renowned brand, the fifth generation jeweller is renowned for her pioneering use of coloured gemstones. One of the first women to make a name for herself in the British, luxury jewellery world, Kiki has built a well-respected business on her own with the support of a great team, while juggling two sons, multiple patronages and a social life that would tire most 20-somethings. We talk about running a business and the very exciting news that she has just gained a royal warrant.
