    Ali Smythe- Turning the Tables on Asha!

    The Girls in Business Podcast – Episode 6 Proudly Sponsored by Mummy-n-Me Photography and Live Your Image Guest: Asha Louise Barber Host: Ali Smythe We have an extra special treat for you today as we break from tradition. Instead of our usual format, our host and founder, the GCGIB Queen – Asha Louise Barber, steps into the spotlight as our guest! This unique episode is a testament to the close-knit community we’ve built here at Girls in Business, and it’s an honor to have Ali Smythe, a fellow GCGIB Member, Friend, and the Owner of Wilde Hair Co., conducting the interview. Now, let’s shine a spotlight on Asha Barber herself. Asha is a true Gold Coast local, embodying the spirit of the community in every way. She’s not just a dedicated mother and friend but also a successful business owner and entrepreneur who is the driving force behind what we now know as The Girls in Business Movement. Asha’s journey is nothing short of inspiring. In 2019, she was recognized as the Entrepreneur of the Year, a testament to her unwavering dedication and vision. Her businesses have graced the screens of nationwide TV, been featured in news outlets, resonated on the radio waves, and made headlines in prominent newspapers. It’s no wonder that in 2022, she was celebrated as one of the Gold Coast’s most influential women, and in 2023, she earned the prestigious title of being one of the “10 Most Dynamic Women Entrepreneurs from Australia Spearheading Change” by APAC Entrepreneur. Asha’s legacy extends far beyond accolades. She is the mastermind behind The Girls in Business Movement, which boasts vibrant communities in Gold Coast, Brisbane, Melbourne, Sydney, and even the groundbreaking Blokes in Business Australia. And that’s not all; Asha’s creativity knows no bounds as she also founded the Girls in Business Podcast and Designs By Asha. In this episode, we dive deep into Asha’s journey, her entrepreneurial insights, and the incredible impact she’s had on women and businesses across Australia. So, stay tuned as we celebrate the woman behind the movement, the driving force of empowerment, and the embodiment of the Girls in Business ethos. This is a conversation you won’t want to miss.

    Proudly Sponsored by SA RAEY Guest: Steph Zahalka – Jungle Branding Co Host: Asha Louise Barber On this episode of The Girls in Business Podcast. Asha sits down for an honest & hilarious conversation with the Founder of Jungle Branding Co, Steph Zahalka. Steph is a mum, wife, socially extroverted, sweary AF entrepreneur who on a mission to help impact driven entrepreneurs render their competition irrelevant so they can be seen as an indisputable industry leader through branding.

In fact, your brand is the CORE that supports and directs everything in your business. She believes in order to play big, make lots of money and have a sustainable and profitable business – it requires building out the foundation, structure and strategy of the brand in a specific way which then translates into the effective communication, positioning and powerful visual brand presence that does the heavy lifting for them. Then the mindset, energy and confidence that stems from that is unstoppable! Branding is THE most underutilized yet most important business tool – Steph’s blend of expertise, humour, stories, and actionable ideas will inspire you and your audience to grow an ‘EPIC’ brand.
