Scaling an e-commerce business from six to seven figures is an exciting milestone—but it’s also where many founders hit costly roadblocks. In this insightful episode, Jaryd Krause sits down with award-winning e-commerce mentor Jodie Minto, founder of the seven-figure fashion brand iland co., host of the Online Store Success podcast, and certified digital marketer, Meta Ads specialist, and life coach. Jodie built her global fashion label from scratch while raising a young family, working full-time, and living in the Middle East—before scaling it to seven figures with customers and stockists around the world. Together, they dive deep into what it really takes to grow an e-commerce business beyond six figures, avoid the biggest pitfalls along the way, and prepare for a successful exit.

In this episode of the Cyber Uncut podcast, Daniel Croft and David Hollingworth talk about NSWEduChat, a virtual Charlie Kirk, the impact of a cyber incident disrupting airports across Europe, and how Australian not-for-profits are getting a new tool to face a rising tide of ransomware attacks. Croft and Hollingworth open proceedings with Instagram's new AI age assurance checks then talk about the new AI tool being rolled out to NSW public school students and how promising it looks. The pair also discuss the ramifications of creating a deepfake of Charlie Kirk to address packed crowds at US megachurches in the wake of his murder and about a data leak on a website set up by American conservatives to out anyone speaking ill of Kirk. They also share an update on the Jaguar Land Rover hack which is still disrupting production in the UK and walk through a ransomware attack that has crippled a string of major European airports. Finally, Hollingworth and Croft find some good news, with NSW enacting legislation to tackle harmful deepfakes and a service offering cyber attack simulations to the not-for-profit sector, which has experienced a surge in malicious activity so far this year.

Send Me a Message! One missed appointment, that's all it took. And suddenly I was facing weeks without my ADHD medications.This time I'd done everything right, so for once this isn't on me! I had scripts sorted, appointments booked, all lined up, ready to go. Then my doctor went on unexpected leave, leaving me completely stimulant-free and flailing. The fallout was brutal: executive function collapsed, my car and room turned into chaos, appointments slipped, and even the podcast stopped for a bit there (sorry everyone).ADHD meds aren't just about focus, because stopping them suddenly makes symptoms rebound even harder. It also shows how fragile access is under the current system, with rigid rules and long waits. Thankfully, changes are coming in NSW where GPs will soon be able to prescribe directly, making life easier for so many of us.Now that I'm back on track, the podcast is rolling again with new Q&As and intake interviews. If you've faced your own medication access struggles, I'd love to hear your story.At the end of this episode I also pass judgement over the developments around certain pain medications and the development of autism spectrum disorder. My conclusions perhaps differ slightly from those presented by the US government at this time.....Support the showYou can follow me on Instagram: @elliot.t.waters, and the show on Facebook!

A massive moment for our Wippa. Not only has the Prime Minister learnt "Wippa" isn't his real name, but he also got to speak at the U.N. To support him in such a big moment, Wippa's parents joined him in New York. Overflowing with pride no doubt, but Wippa caught his mum doing something probably not "the done thing" at the U.N. On the topic of "not the done thing" the new NSW top cop has quite the history! It included being found less than 100% at a great aussie landmark! We also had a chat about teachers that fancied themselves as pranksters after an American teacher found himself in a bit of strife for what started as an innocent prank!

This week on Sparta Chicks Radio you'll meet Ally Orr. Ally brings a unique perspective to the podcast; she is both a competitive Jiu-Jitsu player and an Exercise and Sports Scientist.A talented musician growing up in regional NSW, Ally moved to Sydney at 16 to attend music school. Not long after, her then-boyfriend introduced her to strength training and weight lifting - and the rest, as they say, is history.She then found the sport of Judo before moving onto Jiu-Jitsu and has won (amongst other things) the lightweight Pan Pacific Championship and in 2021, she became Australian Champion in the 60kg division. At about the same time she discovered her love of combat sports, Ally transferred her studies from music to Exercise and Sports Science. In this conversation Ally and I discuss:* how she transitioned from studying music to exercise and sport science,* where her love of exercise and movement came from (given that she wasn't an active or sporty kid)* what she loves about the sport of Jiu-Jitsu and the common misconceptions about it,* the personal power that grows in women when they are physically strong,* how she manages the fear of being physically hurt* the female athlete triad and why it's common in combat sports* the impact of needing to ‘cut weight' to compete in your weight division and the impact of that on body image and mental health,* whether you can maintain a healthy body image in a sport that requires you to cut or reduce your weight,* the 3 biggest misconceptions she hears that undermine women's health and performance, and* how to find ways to incorporate recovery into your busy life.
