It's #MentalHealthAwareness week and sharing about mental illness online is always something I've deliberated over. I question how I can play a part in the overall conversation, whilst still recognising that I don't have all the answers and no two experiences are the same. I sat down with the lovely Lola Hoad to discuss how mental illness has played a part in our stories and what it's looked like to balance that with working for & by ourselves. _____ Find the show notes and get connected to everything mentioned in the episode HERE. Enjoyed the episode? I'd love to hear your thoughts and get connected with you over on Instagram.
I recently met up with Lola Hoad in her amazing space in Brighton and had to pick her brain on all things business and being a 'slashy'. Lola started her journey as a designer, went on to create female business collective, One Girl Band and now is a creative coach, writer and podcaster. Having so many job titles is such a new concept but Lola does it perfectly and manages to keep a balance with everything she does. We talk about how self-care comes into a work/life balance, why talking about money is crucial for entrepreneurs and how your idea of success has to keep evolving if you want to be 'successful'.Shownotes: You Are A Badass At Making Money - Jen SinceroThe Thirty Three MethodFind Lola and One Girl Band below:Lola's InstagramLola's TwitterLola's WebsiteOne Girl Band's InstagramOne Girl Band's TwitterOne Girl Band PodcastOne Girls Band's WebsiteMake sure you subscribe to get updated on all new episodes, check out the website and follow me on Instagram or Twitter for news about guests and to hear more from me.

This week we're switching things up a bit and talking to designer and small business mentor Lola Hoad about how she created her own business out of necessity for her mental health and wellbeing. Plus she tells us how she gets her inner critic to STFU, and talks about the importance of self-care when you're a boss. Lola tells us about how 'busyness' is actually a sign of burnout and she gives some great advice on how to work smarter and more efficiently so you don't ever have to get to the burnout stage.
Episode 10 - Lola Hoad of LH Design and One Girl Band spoke to me about starting a business at 19, empowering other women and why we should be kind to Kim K.
