    Ep 37: Passion, Purpose & Profits - living a life with purpose w/ Simon Squibb

    Ep 37: Passion, Purpose & Profits - living a life with purpose w/ Simon Squibb

    Beyond aesthetics, hair has the power to transform lives, instill confidence, and create connections that foster empowerment and belonging.



    This is a different type of episode - this time I’m the one answering the questions. Join me and Simon Squibbs as we delve into the notion that purpose is not always an immediate revelation; rather, it's a beautiful evolution that requires patience and self-discovery. 



    As we explore the transformative power of purpose, we uncover how it goes beyond individual fulfillment and has the ability to create meaningful connections and communities. 



    Join us for an engaging and thought-provoking conversation that challenges conventional perceptions and highlights the profound role of purpose in every aspect of our lives.

    Ep 36: "Unveiling the Hidden Texture Tax: The Real Cost of Beauty Products for Black Women" Let's Make It Rain Podcast w/ Davinia

    Ep 36: "Unveiling the Hidden Texture Tax: The Real Cost of Beauty Products for Black Women" Let's Make It Rain Podcast w/ Davinia

    I'm thrilled to share my story with you in this special episode. Recently, I had the opportunity to chat with Davinia on the "Let's Make It Rain" podcast, and I'm excited to bring that conversation to my own podcast.

    During our chat, I shared my experiences of starting the new year on Necker Island with Richard Branson and other incredible entrepreneurs, which was truly inspiring. We also delved into the pressing issue of the "texture tax" that black women often face when it comes to haircare products, and how Treasure Tress is working to address this disparity.

    I opened up about how my niece inspired me to create Treasure Tress, and my deep commitment to investing in the next generation of young women. We also discussed my perspective on building wealth and creating options for ourselves and our communities.

    I can't wait for you to join me on this journey as we dive into my story, my vision for Treasure Tress, and my unwavering dedication to empowering black women. This episode of She's Obsessed The Podcast is not to be missed!

    Ep 35: "You need to know the game that you're playing... position yourself to get the bag!" w/ Mandy Nyarko

    An episode filled with so many "aha" moments! This was an episode I'd been looking forward to recording for a long time and it did not disappoint!

    I was joined by Mandy Nyarko MBE - VP at Ada Ventures and Co-Founer of the Start Up Discovery School. 

    Mandy and I discussed:


    the fact that pursuing your purpose is a privilege
    you should be pursuing purpose and profit!
    your purpose changes as you change
    balance is a thing, but there are cycles
    female entrepreneurs have to wear many hats, and inherit roles which impact their journey
    cultural attitudes towards money

    Follow Mandy @mandy_nyarko to keep up with her journey.

    Ep 34: Creative Entrepreneurship: "I can do ANY thing but I can't do EVERY thing.. at once" w/ Jevetta Boyce

    Ep 34: Creative Entrepreneurship: "I can do ANY thing but I can't do EVERY thing.. at once" w/ Jevetta Boyce

    Building a brand teaches you many lessons and requires a variety of skills. Multitasking and exercising your creative muscles appear at the top of that list of skills!



    Doing everything in your business is a blessing a curse. 

    The blessing - you know how everything functions and can train others.

    The curse - you're strapped from time and capacity.



    Creativity is a necessary ingredient for the formulation of any brand yet how does one protect their ideas? Pitching to clients is essential for B2B businesses but how do you avoid your ideas being stolen?



    We switched positions for a second episode, and in this episode Jevetta Boyce asked me (Jamelia Donaldson) a few burning questions she had on the start up journey of TreasureTress.



    We hope you enjoy!

    Thank you for tuning into She's Obsessed The Podcast.



    It was an incredible experience speaking with Jevetta (podcast producer and owner of 10th productions).



    We spoke all things business, healing, projection, self-perception and self-esteem.



    It was truly an uplifting and transformative episode - I truly help you enjoy it!

    Ep 32: 'If you lack experience, lead with character. Be pro-active!"w/ Shannie Mears pt.2

    My conversation with @shannieloves continues... we explore all the importance of remaining curious, and open to learning. The fact that it isn't always about experience. Character and pro-activity can take you places experience some times can't. We hope you enjoy listening to this episode!

Representation in the podcasts space

Relatable, candid and real. Talking on all the the things we need to hear because representation matters. I just binged listened to all three episodes and I’m feeling alive and motivated with that good good inspiration!
