You might recognise singer-songwriter Tallia Storm from your TV screens on shows like Celebs Go Dating and Real Housewives of Jersey. She joins us on the podcast to talk about the real truth behind ‘overnight success’ and opens up about her past in a way she hasn’t ever done before.
In this episode of the Talk Twenties Podcast, Tallia discusses some of the real career highs she’s been fortunate to experience, like her break-through moment at 13 when she was asked to open up for Elton John’s concert in Scotland. She also, however, talks candidly about her low moments, such as losing her record deal at 15 and being ‘fooled’ by producers to appear on X Factor: The Band, only for them to mock her and be ridiculed by the media.
Tallia Storm has been through a lot, but she is one of the most tenacious and determined celebrities we have ever had on the podcast. Her will to keep pushing herself to learn and grow after 10 years in the limelight is truly inspiring.

Sharon Gaffka was one of the original girls to enter the Love Island Villa in 2021 but it’s important to stress that she is far from your typical ‘influencer’. Before Love Island, Sharon was a Civil Servant for 6 years, working across many areas of politics. Since leaving, she’s used her platform to bring about awareness around several key political issues, including her campaign to tackle spiking and victim shaming which has recently taken her to the Palace of Westminster. In this episode of the Talk Twenties Podcast, you can expect an unfiltered and honest conversation about spiking legislation, women’s rights and what it’s like to be judged as a woman, both before and after stepping into the limelight.

For many of you, you may be thinking why on earth should I be worrying about my pension when I am in my twenties?? And you’d be right, there really is nothing to worry about once you know what you’re doing, you can keep paying in and forget about it! As we’ve mentioned many times on the podcast, financial literacy is something that is often not addressed within the education system, leaving many young people clueless and having to fend for themselves. Its surprising how many of you listeners have reached out to ask if we could do an episode breaking down the financial jargon surrounding pensions. In this episode Gaby chats to Kia Commodore, creator of the Pennies to Pounds Financial Literacy Platform. They break down pensions and do the research for you, so you don’t have to!

They say the secret to being a good entrepreneur is to be a doer, not a dreamer and this weeks guest is no stranger to taking action. At just 24 years old, Molly Masters is the founder and CEO of Books That Matter - the UK’s leading and largest book subscription box. In this episode, Gaby chats to Molly about her journey to entrepreneurship and explores how much her business has grown in 2020.
Despite the global pandemic, for Molly, 2020 is a year that’s included being featured in places like Forbes, Stylist, the London Evening Standard, winning Female Start-Up of The Year and even talking at Facebook.
However this wouldn’t be a true reflection of life as an entrepreneur if we just talked about the highlights and so this episode also sees Molly talk openly and candidly about the challenges she’s faced head-on this year.
If you’re looking to be inspired this is the episode for you!
