Turning the Tides: Toni Eastwood on Courage, Confidence & Creating a Life on Your Terms
Feb 300:37:09Tap to summarizeShow NotesEpisode Title: Turning the Tides: Toni Eastwood on Courage, Confidence & Creating a Life on Your TermsPodcast: Real Women Stories in Partnership with Women On PurposeHost: Lisa QuaitGuest: Toni Eastwood OBE MBA✨ Episode IntroductionThis week, the tables turn. Instead of being the one asking the questions, I step into the guest seat as Lisa Quait interviews me for a powerful, emotional, and deeply honest conversation about confidence, courage, and creating a life on your own terms. From leaving school with no qualifications and being bullied into silence, to becoming a national trailblazer for women in business, building million-pound ventures, and ultimately redesigning life and work from the sunshine of Spain – this episode is not a highlight reel.It’s the real story. This conversation is for anyone who has ever:Felt they didn’t fitFollowed the “right path” only to feel deeply unhappyBuilt success that looked good on paper but felt emptyKnown they wanted more freedom, but didn’t know how to get thereIt’s about redefining success, trusting yourself, and having the courage to choose a life that actually feels like yours.🔥 Episode HighlightsFrom bullied schoolgirl to business trailblazerToni shares how early experiences of bullying shaped her confidence and her lifelong drive to help others rise.Helping everyone else… but not herselfThe irony of supporting thousands to start businesses while struggling to voice her own ambitions.The corporate dream that became a nightmareLanding the “ultimate” corporate role and realising almost immediately it was completely wrong.The coffee-shop breaking pointWalking out of a senior role, sitting in a Bradford café in tears, and deciding never to work for anyone else again.The napkin momentWriting the words: “I’m going to help a million women have the career of their life.”Designing life before businessWhy time freedom, autonomy, and alignment matter more than titles, turnover, or ticking boxes.🌱 Key TakeawaysConfidence is built through action - not qualificationsYou don’t become confident then act. You act first, and confidence follows.Success without alignment comes at a costMoney, status, and prestige mean nothing if you’re unhappy in your body and life.You are not behind - you’re becomingNothing is wasted. Every experience feeds the work you’re meant to do.Stop waiting for permissionNo one is coming to tap you on the shoulder and say “now you’re ready”.Comparison is the confidence killerEspecially in the age of social media - your path is allowed to look different.Freedom requires decisionTo decide is to cut off other options. You can’t stay on the hamster wheel and expect a new life.It doesn’t matter how - it matters whatClarity of desire comes before clarity of process.💬 Best Moments“I thought that was the worst day of my life – and it wasn’t.”“You don’t build confidence and then take action. You take action, and that’s what builds confidence.”“I had financial freedom… but I didn’t have life freedom.”“No one else can be you. No one else has lived your life.”“I never want to look back and say ‘I wish I’d tried.’”“It doesn’t matter when you get there. It matters that you’re moving towards what you want.”🧭 Tools & Concepts MentionedWOOP Method - Wish, Outcome, Obstacles, PlanA simple but powerful framework Toni uses with clients (and their children) to move from desire to action.The ‘Letter to Yourself’ exerciseWriting from the future as if the life you want already exists – clarity before certainty.🤍 Work With MeReady to create clarity, confidence, and freedom in your Business and Life?Book a call: https://tinyurl.com/BookACallWithToniFollow Real Women Stories and connect with Lisa https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/real-womens-stories-with-lisa-quait/id1769667587https://www.instagram.com/lisaquait?igsh=MWppZ2g4aHFic24yNw%3D%3D&utm_source=qrhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/real-women-coach?utm_source=share&utm_campaign=share_via&utm_content=profile&utm_medium=ios_app Hosted on Acast.

Transcribe →Jenny Mitchell on serviced accommodation, resilience, menopause, ADHD and living your best life
Jan 1700:59:58Tap to summarizeThis one is a proper real chat with Jenny Mitchell. Straight talking, no fluff, plenty of laughs, and a few “yep, been there” moments.We kick off talking about the kind of “free” events that are not really free (you know the ones), and then Jenny takes us into her story. From running a cleaning business, to stepping in and taking the lead on the serviced accommodation business during lockdown, to building a niche in contract bookings and long term stays.But it’s not just business. We go into the messy midlife mix too. Menopause, ADHD diagnosis later in life, and why so many women are only now realising what’s been going on under the bonnet for years. Jenny’s big message is simple. Stop using labels as the reason you cannot. Put your big girls pants on, build the systems, and keep punching.And yes, we end with a quick rapid fire, including Jenny’s current favourite book recommendation (and it is a spicy one).The best bits“Ropey courses” and the aggressive upsell that makes you want to call a cabJenny’s lockdown pivot and the rock bottom caravan chapterWhy she avoids the Airbnb hamster wheel and focuses on direct contract bookingsThe menopause conversation that led into ADHD being flagged via a questionnaireJenny’s take on ADHD being a superpower if you learn how to handle itThe reality of getting out of the weeds, and why her Ops Manager was a game changerMoney talk, unapologetically, plus doing good work through contracts that support vulnerable peopleKey takeaways1) Your pivot might start in survival modeJenny did not build this business from a perfectly planned strategy. It grew through lockdown pressure, key worker stays, and a willingness to learn fast and step up.2) Niche beats noiseShe is clear that her lane is direct bookings and longer stays, building relationships with companies, not chasing holiday maker bookings.3) Training matters, not “I did a free course so I’m an expert now”Jenny calls out the illusion of competence. If you do not truly know your stuff, you cannot sell it properly.4) Midlife can be the moment you finally understand yourselfMenopause. ADHD. That constant mental load. This chat will land for a lot of women who have spent years thinking they were “just a bit much” or “not normal”.5) Systems buy your freedomLists, structure, and support. Jenny’s proof point is being able to run the business from her phone, and still live her life.Quotable quotes“On one of those ropey courses… and then someone wants to march you to the back of the room.”“We sold a family home before the lockdown, and we lived in a caravan… we’ve been rock bottom.”“Big girls pants on and just keep punching.”“They take a free day course… ‘I’m a professional now, I’ve got a certificate.’ Yeah, it’s bollocks.”“I like doing direct bookings. That’s my niche.”“It’s a superpower. You’ve just got to know how to handle it.”“I wake up at one in the morning sometimes, and my list is going.”“People don’t want to put the work in. They want you to come along and make it all better.”“Life’s too short, isn’t it?”“I can run my business from my phone… living the best life.”That book - here's the deetsThe Power of the Pussy: Get What You Want From Men: Love, Respect, Commitment and More! - Kara KingConnect with JennyIf you want to connect with Jenny about serviced accommodation, contract bookings, or getting support from her team (including Ops Manager support), check out her links below:Contact : +441403599341Instagram: jensm70Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/jenny.mitchell.1481Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jenny-mitchell-7886b079/Website: www.topstayhosting.comAnd if you’re sat there thinking, “I need to get out of the weeds too”, and you want 1:1 support with clarity, structure, and growth, you know where I am.

Transcribe →Sir Jacobs: Building a Brand People Love & Connect With
Jan 900:36:27Tap to summarizeThis episode goes a bit deeper.Not in a dramatic way. Not in a “let’s be profound” way. But in the way that happens when you slow down, sit with people you trust, and talk honestly about why certain things matter.In Part 2 of this Sir Jacobs mini-series, I’m joined by Mitch and his mum Crystal. And what unfolds is one of those conversations that starts with product, but very quickly becomes about life, values, courage, and the choices we make along the way.It’s about what we allow into our homes. What we put on our skin. What we light at the end of the day. And what those small choices say about who we are and how we want to live.This is not a glossy brand story. It’s a real conversation about craft, care, and building something that actually means something.What we talk about in this episodeHow Sir Jacobs started as a passion project and a bit of a risk, long before it became a brand others wanted to be part ofWhy handmade really matters, and why not everything deserves to make it out of the studioThe discipline of doing things properly, even when nobody is watchingHow scent becomes part of your life without you even realising itThe idea of ritual, from lighting a candle at the end of the day to creating a feeling when someone walks through your doorWhat legacy really looks like when you strip away the noiseWhy choosing your vessel and choosing your fragrance is about identity, not interiorsSustainability as a way of working, not a marketing lineMoments that really landed for meThere are a few moments in this episode that stayed with me.Crystal describing her first Sir Jacobs piece as something solid and grounding, almost like it had always existed.The attention given to the base of a ceramic vessel, even though most people will never look at it.The honesty about smashing pieces that are not right, even when that hurts financially.Mitch talking about the courage it took to step away from safe options and back something uncertain.And the quiet realisation that Sir Jacobs is not just something you buy, it becomes something you live with.What this episode is really aboutThis conversation is about integrity.About not cutting corners. About caring deeply. About choosing to do things slowly and properly in a world that rewards speed and shortcuts.It’s also about pride. Pride in craft. Pride in where things are made. Pride in creating something that feels considered and respectful.And if I’m honest, it’s also about noticing how rare that is.One line that sums it up“When you build something with care and intention, people feel it. They might not be able to explain why, but they know.”That’s what stayed with me.My final thoughtThis episode is a reminder to pause and notice what’s around you.Not just what looks good. But what feels right. What lasts. What carries meaning.Because the things we surround ourselves with shape our days more than we realise.Visit Sir Jacobs and use code LAUNCHUK20 for 20% Discount🌍 www.sirjacobs.co.ukFind and connect with Benhttps://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-colling-3b251133a/Follow Sir Jacobshttps://www.instagram.com/sirjacobs_com/https://www.tiktok.com/@sirjacobs.com?lang=enIf this episode resonated with you, please take a moment to subscribe to Women on Purpose so you never miss a conversation like this.

Transcribe →Sir Jacobs: Building a Brand People Love & Connect With
Jan 900:42:31Tap to summarizeWomen On Purpose Podcast - Sir Jacobs: Real Voices, Real Homes (Part 1)This week’s episode is a little different… and honestly, it’s one of my favourites to record.Because behind every brand we admire, every beautiful product we bring into our homes, there are people. Real voices. Real relationships. Real stories.In Part 1 of this two-part mini-series, I’m joined by Kerry, Sean, and Alicia (Ben’s neighbours and Ben’s mum) for a relaxed, laughter-filled conversation, complete with mimosas, all about what Sir Jacobs feels like when it’s not a marketing campaign… but something you actually live with.What comes through so clearly isn’t just appreciation for the ceramics or fragrances.It’s the connection to the intention.The craftsmanship.The pride.The “oh my God… where did you get that?” moments.And the kind of quality you can’t fake, because you can feel it the second you pick it up.This episode is about trust.It’s about what happens when something is made slowly, thoughtfully, and with purpose.And it’s about how a brand doesn’t just land on shelves… it lands in lives.In this episode, we talk about…First encounters with Sir Jacobs, the accidental discovery in the guest loo that turns into “I need this in every room.”Why these products don’t just smell beautiful… they shift the whole atmosphere of a home.The joy of ritual, Sunday night baths, candles lit, diffusers going, and that “company’s coming” spritz routine.The magic of “choose your vessel, choose your fragrance”, and the refill concept that makes it feel both luxe and sensible.Why Sir Jacobs is becoming a natural fit for boutique hotels, resorts, and luxury gifting, including the new bracket solution for hospitality spaces.How scent creates memory, that instant transport back to a place, a moment, a feeling.What you’ll hear (and feel) in Part 11) “I didn’t even know I was encountering it…”Kerry describes discovering Sir Jacobs without realising it, then walking out of the bathroom basically demanding to know where it came from. That moment of genuine surprise is everything.2) The “waft” factor 😄Sean (and Ben!) love smelling good, and the conversation about fragrance being something that lingers, lives in a space, and becomes part of your identity is honestly brilliant.3) The plastic bottle rebellionAlicia’s story is priceless: being told to get rid of the plastic bottles and suddenly being introduced to something that looks stunning everywhere, bathroom… kitchen… the whole house.4) The craft you can’t mass-produceWe talk about how every vessel is handcrafted in South Africa, one-of-a-kind, and made with serious standards, including the reality that if it’s not perfect, it doesn’t pass.5) A brand that started in a garage… and became a beliefThere’s a beautiful thread running through this episode about belief, how Ben encountered the product, got goosebumps, and knew he needed to be involved. Not because he was sold to… but because he felt it.Favourite moments & “best bits” Here are some gorgeous moments you could also pull as clips:“I didn’t even know I was encountering it…”“He loves to waft.” (still makes me laugh 😄)“They look stunning everywhere in the house.”“It’s art and it’s fine fragrance.”“When you build something slowly and honestly… it doesn’t just land on shelves, it lands in lives.”The bigger messageWhat this conversation really highlights is this:When something is created with integrity and care, people don’t just buy it, they champion it.They tell their friends.They want it in every room.They build rituals around it.And they feel proud to support it because it represents something deeper than “stuff.”And honestly… that’s what brand is.Not marketing. Not noise.But meaning.Sir Jacobs have kindly given Women On Purpose listeners a discount code for your first order:www.sirjacobs.co.uk Use Code: LAUNCHUK20 for 20% Discount🌍 www.sirjacobs.co.ukFind and connect with Sir Jacobshttps://www.instagram.com/sirjacobs_com/https://www.tiktok.com/@sirjacobs.com?lang=en Hosted on Acast.

Transcribe →From Belief to Buy-In: When Loving the Brand Becomes the Investment
Dec 3100:37:42Tap to summarizeShow NotesIn this special and very personal episode of the Women on Purpose, Toni Eastwood OBE sits down with a close friend Ben Colling whose relationship with this series sponsor Sir Jacobs, didn’t begin as an investor - but as a genuine admirer, user, and believer.This conversation traces the journey from loving the product, to living with it in everyday spaces, to recognising that what had been created was more than beautiful objects - it was a brand with depth, story, and emotional resonance.Toni chats with Ben, who openly shares the realities of the early stage:the brand initially being a side projectthe pivotal moment where growth required commitment and capitalthe clarity around what level of investment was neededand how trust, shared values, and belief shaped the partnershipAt its heart, this episode is about organic investment - the kind that comes from emotional connection, lived experience, and alignment, not pitch decks and pressure.A powerful listen for founders navigating funding, partnerships, and the vulnerable leap from passion project to serious business.Key HighlightsThe brand was loved before it was invested in - The relationship began with genuine admiration for the product - its look, feel, and presence in the home.This started as a side project, not a polished business - The brand was originally a “job on the side,” before reaching a natural turning point.Living with the product changed everything - Seeing and using the pieces daily created a visceral, emotional connection that went far beyond “this is nice.”Investment came from belief, not persuasion - The decision to invest followed deep understanding of the story, values, and future potential — not a hard sell.Partnership was formed with clarity and trust - The investment amount, shareholding structure, and timing were all handled transparently, reinforcing mutual respect.Best Bits“It wasn’t just ‘this is lovely’ - it was something you felt when you picked it up.”“At that stage, it was still a hobby… a good one, but a job on the side.”“You live with it - it becomes part of your home, part of your everyday.”“There’s always that pivotal moment in small business where you realise you can’t grow without investment.”“That was when the partnership was born - and the shareholding structure followed.”Why this episode mattersThis isn’t a funding story. It’s a belief story. It shows what happens when:the product speaks for itselftrust exists before contractsand investment is a natural extension of love for the brandVisit Sir Jacobs and use code LAUNCHUK20 for 20% Discount 🌍 www.sirjacobs.co.ukFind and connect with Ben https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-colling-3b251133a/Follow Sir Jacobshttps://www.instagram.com/sirjacobs_com/https://www.tiktok.com/@sirjacobs.com?lang=enIf this episode resonated with you, please take a moment to subscribe to Women on Purpose so you never miss a conversation like this.

From Garage to Global: Crafting Purpose, Partnership & Luxury with Sir Jacobs
Dec 2401:22:59Tap to summarizeIn this deeply inspiring conversation, Toni Eastwood OBE, MBA sits down live with Stephan and Neil Jacobs, founders of South African luxury ceramics and fragrance brand Sir Jacobs. What begins as a creative side project in a garage becomes a masterclass in purpose-led entrepreneurship, craftsmanship, partnership, and perseverance.This episode is a powerful listen for creatives, founders, and anyone feeling the pull to leave the familiar behind and build something meaningful.Episode HighlightsHow Sir Jacobs evolved from clothing → leather → fragrance → ceramic artistryWhy combining ancient craftsmanship with modern technology became their differentiatorThe emotional and practical realities of building a business as a married coupleWhy purpose, not perfection, fuels sustainable successHow craftsmanship, sustainability, and luxury can coexistKey Takeaways1. Purpose often starts as discomfortNeil’s shift from law to perfumery wasn’t about abandoning success - it was about honouring creativity that had nowhere to go. Discomfort was the signal, not the problem.2. You don’t need the full plan - just the next brave stepFrom buying a kiln on Facebook Marketplace to teaching themselves ceramics via YouTube, Sir Jacobs proves that momentum beats mastery at the beginning.3. Great brands are built through iteration, not inspirationThere was no single “lightbulb moment.” The brand emerged through repeated experimentation, failed ideas, and relentless refinement.4. Creative mastery is a lifelong pursuitBoth founders openly share that even now, they feel like amateurs - and that’s the point. The joy is in chasing improvement, not arriving at perfection.5. Clear roles save relationships (and businesses)Working together nearly broke them - until they defined ownership. Delineating responsibility transformed both their marriage and the business.6. Sustainability begins with design, not marketingSir Jacobs’ refillable, long-lasting vessels challenge throwaway luxury. True sustainability was designed in from day one.7. People don’t buy products - they buy beliefCustomers don’t just love how Sir Jacobs smells or looks - they connect with the story, the intention, and the people behind it.Best Moments“This opportunity comes once in a lifetime… and not taking it would be very stupid.”“Eventually, you run out of time. You can’t be a full-time lawyer and a full-time creator.”“I still feel like I know nothing and that’s what gets me out of bed every morning.”“When you chase two rabbits, you catch none.”“Our ceramics aren’t meant to be thrown away. They’re meant to outlive us.”“People don’t buy what you do. They buy why you do it.”Why This Episode MattersThis is more than a brand story - it’s a reminder that:You’re allowed to change directionCreativity is not indulgent - it’s essentialBusiness built with soul travels furtherIf you’re standing at a crossroads between what’s safe and what feels true - this conversation is for you.🔗 Find Sir Jacobs🌍 Website:📦 UK www.sirjacobs.co.uk www.sirjacobs.com 20% Discount Use Code LAUNCHUK20🛍️ In-person: Hyde Park Corner Shopping Centre, Johannesburghttps://www.instagram.com/sirjacobs_com/ Hosted on Acast.

Transcribe →Leveraging LinkedIn Lead Generation to Transform Your Business with Helen Tudor
Nov 13, 202400:58:56Tap to summarizeFor this episode, Toni is joined by Helen Tudor a dynamic force in the world of LinkedIn lead generation who is about to switch directions a bit and help people to identify and market to their ideal client. Over the years she has enabled people to transform how they run their business and connect with clients using the power of LinkedIn. This episode is packed with information you can use to take your understanding of your ideal client and turning them into loyal customers to the next level. KEY TAKEAWAYS Be clear on what you do and how it helps your customers. Creating client personas really does work. Helen explains how she does this during the podcast. Regularly update your client persona. As your business changes so will your ideal client. Even if your business does not change much, the way your ideal clients are living will evolve. When you bring your ideal client to life in your mind and focus on them you attract them to your business. It is a highly effective form of manifestation. Combining spirituality with strategy is powerful. Understanding and tapping into your energy and applying it in the right way is incredibly effective. LinkedIn does not need to be complicated. The method Helen teaches for LinkedIn, with a few tweaks, works for other social media platforms. Be yourself people appreciate honesty. Not being you is exhausting and damaging. Invest in yourself and spend money on the things you want and like. BEST MOMENTS “I find clients everywhere. “ “When you change your business, your ideal client is going to change. “ “I had no idea how to really use LinkedIn or how to market myself online, I just went with radical honesty.“ “I spent from the age of 24 till 44 basically collecting certificates … it was driven by my demons - that I never thought I was good enough.· “I think I'm open and out of the closet with my wooness.” “In two weeks of taking my advice, she signed up 10 new clients.” ABOUT THE GUEST https://www.linkedin.com/in/helentudor https://www.facebook.com/LinkedInLeadGen WORK WITH ME If you're ready for greater clarity and confidence to create the freedom and alignment, you crave in business and life.

Transcribe →Achieving Eight-Figure Success in a Male-Dominated Industry Amy Bird
Nov 6, 202400:53:22Tap to summarizeFor this episode, Toni is joined by Amy Bird, the CEO of Connolly´s Scrap Metals and Countrywide Metals, the founder of Women in Recycling and a former model. She explains what it was like for her to take the reins of a family business in what is still a male-dominated industry. She and Toni discuss how to be successful in that environment and what women can do to support each other and break down the barriers that are still there. Amy shares the ups and downs, including how she and her husband coped with being ripped off and losing a business worth millions, despite winning a court case against the perpetrators. She explains how she and her husband found the strength to rebuild and create a new six-figure business. Toni and Amy discuss finding a strong why and building resilience. KEY TAKEAWAYS · There are still not many women working in scrap or recycling. At last year´s industry dinner, only 6 of the 500 guests were women. · Women are still not helping other women enough. · When Amy and her husband were conned out of their business, they were devastated but still found the strength to start again. · Having a strong why helped them to work their way back up to owning a highly profitable business. · Physical exercise massively helped Amy to cope and work to rebuild. · Taking little steps each day stops you from wallowing. · Don´t let others project their insecurities onto you. · You don´t have to tick every single requirement to apply for the job you really want. · Learn to trade the money you earn multiple times. BEST MOMENTS “I just felt this real pull that Bella (her daughter) would get to go on and do at least as much as I did, and hopefully more. “ “It's easy to, like you say, roll over and just wallow in this, but equally, it is easy to take some little steps every day, “ “It just really befuddles me that there aren't more women that are actually supporting women. “ ABOUT THE GUEST https://www.linkedin.com/in/amy-bird-connolleys https://www.instagram.com/womeninrecycling https://www.womeninscrap.com WORK WITH ME If you're ready for greater clarity and confidence to create the freedom and alignment, you crave in business and life.

Oct 22, 202400:54:06Tap to summarizeFor this episode, Toni is joined by Pam Greenhill who runs the popular YT channel Bloo´s Self Reliance urban homesteading and wellness channel. Through it, and her hands-on workshops Pam teaches people how to grow, stock up on food bargains and preserve while on a budget. She is a qualified chef, nutritionist, dietitian, herbalist and naturopath, mother of 2 sons and foster mother of 72 children. KEY TAKEAWAYS Relying on supermarkets is expensive and makes it hard to eat well. Only a small % of the food they sell is healthy and nutritious. Teach your kids how to grow, cook and preserve food. That is how Pam learned. Community matters, you are stronger together. Even an unexpected big bill can leave you unable to afford food for a few months, so it makes sense to be prepared and have food for emergencies. Be prepared in little ways for example having a blanket in the car on cold days. Plan your meals and shop around for ingredients. Only some things in discount stores are cheaper. Make your washing powder. Live mindfully. BEST MOMENTS “Every spare inch of my front and back garden is growing food. “ “Preparedness is more about life happening but you not being inconvenienced by it. “ “What you can grow yourself, or what is locally grown is so completely different. It's like they were grown on different planets. . “ ABOUT THE GUEST Pam Greenhill is a dietician, nutritionist, herbalist, naturopath, retired chef, creator of the Rainwater Self Sufficiency program and owner of The Bloo Pixie Studios which is soon to be registered as a PCIC. A single parent at 17 with 2 sons, Pam has fostered 72+ children. Raising them in a home where growing and garden-to-table cooking is the norm. Teaching them life skills to help them on their healing journey. Pam runs Bloo’s Self Reliance YT channel where she teaches self-sufficiency and helps those with few resources to plan for life’s unexpected emergencies in a no-nonsense but light-hearted way. https://bloos.food.blog https://www.youtube.com/@BloosSelfReliance https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100087737348646 https://www.instagram.com/bloosselfreliance Threads - Bloo's Self-Reliance BlueSky - @thebloopixie.bsky.social https://www.tiktok.com/@bloos_self_reliance https://www.linkedin.com/in/thebloopixie WORK WITH ME If you're ready for greater clarity and confidence to create the freedom and alignment, you crave in business and life.
