We're back!! And we've had a little spruce up.Before I get into this description, first agenda point is: follow @workinghardpod on Instagram! We're here: https://www.instagram.com/workinghardpod/As part of this relaunch I wanted to create a space for everyone who listens and watches our podcast that is super inspiring & brings value to your feed. We’ve got lots of exciting plans, including a huge giveaway (which I haven’t mentioned anywhere but here, so you’re first to know).What a full circle it was to record with Conna when we were both in LA. This is the definition of an unfiltered founder to founder chat. We really got into it. Goal setting, life plans, business growth, boundaries. I loved recording it so much, I hope you enjoy watching it too.Also, what do we think of the new music?

Ep. 133 Why Our 20s Are So Confusing And Guide On How To Tackle Them With Jemma Sbeg [From The Archives]
I hope you’re having a great week so far. We’re currently on a little podcast break at Working Hard, Hardly Working whilst we work on something hugely exciting which is coming very soon and I focus on opening the first ever TALA store which I still cannot believe is happening! But you know I would never leave you without inspiring content on a monday morning! So I’ve picked my absolute favourite episodes from the nearly 130 we’ve released. Today's is with the gorgeous Jemma Sbeg, host of The Psychology of Your 20s! Jemma is someone everyone in their twenties needs. Her podcast The Psychology of Your 20s, was one of the 20 most listened to podcasts in the WORLD last year, and she started it as a hobby whilst working her 80+ hour a week corporate job. I’ll be totally clear with you, my aim going into this episode was to get as much advice from Jemma as physically possible, to make it a guide to owning and understanding what is arguably the most confusing decade of our lives. We covered everything from finding your dream job, to comparison, to moving to a new city and so much more. +JEMMA'S LINKS:The Psychology Of Your 20s: https://www.psychologyofyour20s.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/thatpsychologypodcast/?hl=enPersonal IG: https://www.instagram.com/jemmasbeg/?hl=en+MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/+SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own brands, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

Ep. 131 The Secret To Consistent Motivation & Achieving The Extraordinary With Professor John Amaechi [From The Archives]
I hope you’re having a great week so far. We’re currently on a little podcast break at Working Hard, Hardly Working whilst we work on something hugely exciting which is coming very soon and I focus on opening the first ever TALA store which I still cannot believe is happening! But you know I would never leave you without inspiring content on a monday morning! So I’ve picked my absolute favourite episodes from the nearly 130 we’ve released. Today's is with the man with the most soothing voice in the world (who also happens to be a world renowned psychologist) Professor John Amaechi.Not only is he an Organisational Psychologist, an OBE, a New York Times Bestselling Author, a Fellow of the Institute of Science and Technology, a Professor of Leadership, a non-executive director of an FTSE 250 company and the founder of organisational psychology consultancy APS. He was also, more surprisingly, the first Briton to play professional basketball in the NBA league, a move which saw him leave his hometown of Stockport for the world of professional basketball aged just 18. And whilst playing, he was the first NBA player to come out as gay. Never afraid to stand up and speak out, his book made me question a lot of things I thought I knew about myself and the way I live and work. +JOHN'S LINKS: LinkedIn: https://uk.linkedin.com/in/amaechiInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/johnamaechiobe/?hl=enAPS: https://www.apsintel.com/ +MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/+SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own brands, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.

Ep. 130 Fertility & Reproductive Health 101 with Dr Helen O'Neill (+ The Dire State Of Women's Health) [From The Archives]
I hope you’re having a great week so far. We’re currently on a little podcast break at Working Hard, Hardly Working whilst we work on something hugely exciting which is coming very soon and I focus on opening the first ever TALA store which I still cannot believe is happening! But you know I would never leave you without inspiring content on a monday morning! So I’ve picked my absolute favourite episodes from the nearly 130 we’ve released. Today's is with the geneticist & fertility researcher Dr Helen O'Neill. Dr O’Neill is a leading expert in reproductive science, she’s a lecturer in reproductive and molecular genetics at University College London, she has a Masters in Prenatal Genetics and Fetal Medicine and a PhD in Stem Cell Biology. She is also the founder and CEO of Hertility Health, an award-winning bio-tech business specialising in fertility testing that has raised over £5 million since launch.Fertility is obviously a hugely sensitive topic, but it’s also one that we never talk about for exactly that reason. When I started this podcast, I wanted it to cover the important topics that we never get taught, and I learnt so so much from Helen that I really couldn’t believe I haven’t researched or known before. If you’re thinking about switching off right now because you find the idea of fertility testing terrifying like I do, I promise you it’s worth sticking it out and listening to this one. However, if you are someone who is currently struggling to conceive, or finds fertility conversations particularly hard, this is an episode to skip.+HELEN'S LINKS:Hertility: https://hertilityhealth.com/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/dr.helenoneill/?hl=en +MY LINKS: https://gracebeverley.komi.io/+SHREDDY, TALA and THE PRODUCTIVITY METHOD are my own brands, therefore any mention of them - whilst not being a sponsorship - is monetarily endorsed.
