Join Jemma Broadstock, psychology-obsessed entrepreneur and coach, in a series of intimate and vulnerable conversations with online entrepreneurs.
Each episode will peel back the curtain on the realities behind the scenes of running a business, the ability to embrace imperfection and the sharing of the messy truths of entrepreneurship.
Jemma explores how we navigate the complexities of honouring the real and raw human behind the business while still achieving success and running a business that feels fulfilling, despite not always practising what we preach.
With each short episode packed full of valuable lessons, you’ll find yourself exhaling, thinking, 'I'm not the only one?!'
In this episode I chat with Matt and Hayden from Dirty Jack who "create the most ridiculous video campaigns possible". Having purchased from one of the Dirty Jack ads, I just knew I needed to chat to them and get them to share all their secrets on the podcast!

In this episode I share the three things I wish we had left in 2019 but still see a lot of people doing. While everyone should do what feels good for them and this is just my personal opinion, I dive into why I dislike these things and what I believe the alternatives are to make sure everyone (both you and your clients) feel good.

Instead, we're talking about the psychology behind those four words themselves and how that might actually be the very thing stopping you from being able to afford the things you want.

There is a lot of information out there about following your heart and doing what feels good, so I thought I'd tackle the unsexy bits of pivoting in this episode instead!
Here I discuss the three logical aspects of pivoting that I would recommend you think about before taking the leap, based on my own personal experience of pivoting from virtual assistant to business mentor and also the experiences of my clients.
In short: follow your heart, but bring your head!

This is a topic I felt so pulled to talk about today. I saw one of my business friends Felly (@fellydayva) talk about an assumption someone made about her financial situation and it reminded me of all the separate incidents I've experienced myself with something similar.
In this episode, I share some of my own personal stories, as well as experiences of others around me when it comes to sales from the business vs the amount of cash left over to spend.

This episode with my client Lisa from The Minute Maker is so insightful for those of you wondering how people get booked out with VA clients and how they reach that 'next level' with higher ticket offers.
Lisa also talks to us about her experience transitioning from being a detective, giving evidence in court, to running a VA business from her home surrounded by her family.
Warning: this episode is likely to make you want to visit Dorking!

This episode has been such a long time coming.
As you may (or may not) know, I started in this online space back in 2019 with a virtual assistant business called Collectively Done that quickly grew into something amazing and was a huge part of my journey and how I got where I am now.
I haven't spoken much about the VA business this year and recently I've had a few questions about it, so I figured it was time to talk...

In this short episode, I discuss the idea that you should offer things you're good at as paid services.
You're often encouraged to start a business by thinking about what your skills are and what you are already talented at, but is that always the best place to start?
Does that mean as you learn new things your services should be updated?
Does everything you love have to come with a price tag?

In this episode, I chat with my previous associate Felly who now runs a successful content management agency!
Felly and I have been in each other's worlds for such a long time so it was so great to get her on the podcast to chat about her journey. We discuss Felly's journey from VA to agency owner, how she made her business model profitable, and some of the ups and downs she experienced along the way.
We also touch on how much is too much to share on Instagram and what it's been like to launch mentoring services alongside her agency.

In this episode, I chat with one of my previous clients Ash about her journey and how she managed to transform her business in just 6 weeks!
Ash came to me at a time where she felt stuck and knew she needed to make changes in her business. Recently she shared with me that after making the changes we discussed together, she lost half of her clients overnight.
In this episode, we discuss the difficulties that come with implementing boundaries and how it all worked out in the end when 6 weeks later she was earning more than ever!

I LOVE having honest conversations about business, so let's talk about a few things I did in 2020 that you might want to avoid!
I really do see all 'mistakes' as lessons that I can take lots of positives from, so I don't regret doing any of these things, but hopefully, they can help give you a nudge in the right direction.
Not making decisions fast enough.
Lack of clarity around long-term vision.
Making things more complicated than they need to be.

Six-figure years. 10k months. Being in the '2%'. I LOVE seeing women achieve those things, but I think it's important to point out that having 10k months, but only when you're launching, or having a six-figure year once doesn't necessarily mean your business is scale-able long term and is going to grow into something that allows you to retire at 35. This episode is for you if: you are focusing on vanity metrics and getting caught up in the Instagram comparison chaos!

One of the biggest problems people come to me with: "I'm maxed out on hours. I have no time left in the day to take on more clients. If I want to continue growing I need to hire but how do I outsource when my clients pay for ME?!" This is a predicament I have been through myself and helped many others go through. Here's the thing though: intimacy is scaleable. This episode is for you if: you want to know the secret to scaling your business without losing the you-ness that makes it what it is.

This episode is for you if: you feel uneasy at the thought of your finances and at a loss as to when to hire someone to help you with your accounts.
