5 Lessons We Learnt the Hard Way!

  • Summary

  • In this episode, Lucy and Yasmine are back with more laughs, lessons, and a healthy dose of ecomm drama! The girls are sharing the biggest lessons they’ve learned the hard way while building businesses. They dive into the behind-the-scenes challenges of growing brands, hiring freelancers for the first time, and even what Molly-Mae’s viral TikTok brand fail can teach us all about quality control. This episode is packed with practical advice and the usual dose of hilarious mishaps. No guests today—just Lucy and Yasmine reflecting on everything from scaling operations to navigating a global workforce across time zones. Who Even Are You Guys? A question we ask ourselves daily, but here’s the official answer: Yasmine Cheikh: Co-Founder of Cloth Project, based in Dubai. Lucy Greenleaf: Founder of The Leaf Group, based in Hong Kong.
