As we near the end of the year, my planning mode kicks into high gear, red lights start flashing in my head & I get very anxious if I’m more than a metre away for a planner. On a serious note though, facing 365 days all at once can feel overwhelming, but I truly believe that breaking it down makes it manageable—and honestly, pretty exciting. I’m not one for the whole "new year, new me" thing, but I do love the opportunity a new year brings to reset, realign, plan exciting moments and set achievable goals.

I did a video last year all about how to plan for 2024, and it was one of our most popular to date. So I thought I’d do an updated one including everything I’ve learnt about planning this year & how I use AI to help me!

So, grab your favorite matcha, coffee or tea, and let’s dive into creating our best year yet for 2025 (and beyond)!

Jade Holland Cooper founded Holland Cooper in 2008 with the ambition to bring luxurious British heritage to a modern audience. What began as a small collection of tailored tweed clothing that she sold on a stand at horse shows, has grown into a global brand that now turns over £40m a year. I wanted this episode to be a deep dive into her journey—how she went from country fairs to building an empire, the key inflection points, and what it is about her that’s given her such a mindset for success & viral product creation. If you're interested in entrepreneurship, brand building, this episode is for you.

I am very excited for today’s episode as it’s with the brilliant Cass DiMicco, one of the most stylish women online & founder of one of my favourite jewellery brands, Aureum, that she built to 7 figures in its first year.

Cass began her career as a fashion buyer for one of America’s Oldest department stores, whilst spending her free time posting her outfits on her blog & instagram, fast forward over a decade later, and she’s renowned for her timeless personal style, which feeds into the brand she’s built at Aureum too.

With a combined following of over 9 million, Louise Pentland really is one of the OG content creators. Originally growing through her blog titled Sprinkle of Glitter, and youtube channel of the same name that followed, she was part of the original ‘brit crew’ of youtubers that took the UK scene by storm in the 2010s. She met the Pope, Kim Kardashian and has 4 sunday times bestelling books.But behind the glamour and newfound fame, she was dealing with a divorce and parenting a young child.

Louise was so open in this episode, we really covered 1000 topics. She was frank and honest about her career, her relationships, the minefield of parenting online, managing her finances, finding new opportunities and her approach to content.

Laney Crowell is a founder I’ve wanted to speak to for such a long time, so I knew I had to pin her down on my trip to New York.

She founded beauty brand Saie in 2019 after a five year stint at Estee Lauder that made her want to disrupt the industry, and to Saie (pardon the pun) it’s gone from strength to strength is an understatement. Laney’s career though was not an obvious entrepreneurial path - she started out on film sets, entered into the world of new york magazines, and even interviewed to be Anna Wintour’s assistant 7 times before landing what her dream role, leading social & eventually global communications for Estee Lauder. It was a big job, but she wanted even bigger, more disruptive things, which ultimately led her to Saie.

Today we’re talking about how to become more confident. I really believe that confidence might just be the key to happiness, whether it’s in your career, your personal relationships, or even just how you talk to yourself. And understanding the root cause has shown me that confidence is something you can learn, it’s like any skill. And if there’s one thing I love - it’s learning skills. So i’m excited to break it down.
