Today's very SPECIAL Guest Interview is with the legendary Laura Bartlett - Founding Editor and CEO of Luxury Travel & Fashion Magazine, The House of Coco! Last week, I caught up with Laura in person to interview her and I was blown away, not only by her manner, but also by her story.   After appearing on Dragons Den in 2013 and without the backing of the Dragons, Laura has defied the odds to build her empire. After facing numerous challenges, including Bankruptcy, Laura's persistence, determination and sheer will, are an INSPIRATION to so many across women around the world, that YOU CAN beat the odds and create a beautiful life and a successful business in the process!  I cannot wait to share Laura's story with you and you can find more information on Laura as follows: https://www.instagram.com/laurabartlett0/ https://www.instagram.com/house_of_coco/  https://www.houseofcoco.net    Maggie xx  

In today's episode, we're talking all about the subject of Agendas.   We live in a world now where everyone has an agenda with everything and when you have an agenda, you're not always doing things for the right reasons.   Rather than feeling in flow, you feel stiff and uneasy. You're forcing yourself to do something because you feel like you should be doing it, rather than because you want to.    Ironically, it's when we DON'T have an agenda with something, that we see the most success!   Contact Info: Follow me on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/the_luxe_elixir Join my FREE Facebook Group - The Luxe Girl Society at  https://www.facebook.com/groups/336601143462098  Find out how we can work together on: https://www.luxe-elixir.com   Or email me on: maggie@luxe-elixir.com   See you next time!

Today I'm interviewing the INCREDIBLE Sarah Williams from Tough Girl Challenges!   If ever there was a Female Role Model to inspire you to get active and achieve your dreams, Sarah's the role model you're looking for.   Recognised by The Guardian as one of the 10 Most INSPIRING Contemporary Female Adventurers to follow in 2018, it's not hard to see why! Today I grill Sarah about: WHY she left the corporate world; WHAT inspired her to start Tough Girl Challenges; HOW it feels to have had 600,000 downloads on her Podcast; HOW she mentally prepared herself for running 6 marathons in 6 Days across the Sahara Desert; and WHAT it felt like to beat stiff competition from the major media outlets to win the 2018 "Women's Sports Trust #BeAGameChanger Media Initiative of the Year Award"!   If the above doesn't inspire you to listen to today's episode, I don't know what will!   You can find more information on Sarah here: Twitter: https://twitter.com/_tough_girl  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/toughgirlchallenges

In today's episode, I'm sharing some personal stories with you, on WHY we need to take a little more RISK!  I've always been a bit of a risk taker and I'm that girl that often says YES to things, without thinking them through. A lot of people view risk as a negative thing, when in fact it's both positive and necessary!  The more risks you take, the more possibilities you'll make!  Are there any decisions you've said NO to recently because you're scared of taking risks?  Contact Info: Follow me on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/the_luxe_elixir Join my FREE Facebook Group - The Luxe Girl Society at  https://www.facebook.com/groups/336601143462098  Find out how we can work together on: https://www.luxe-elixir.com   Or email me on: maggie@luxe-elixir.com   See you next time!

Earlier this week, I found out I'd ranked in the Top 50 iTunes Podcasts for Careers....needless to say I was over the frickin moon!!!   Funnily enough, around six weeks ago, I decided to get intentional about my Podcast. Impact and consistency were top of my list, as was featuring in the Top 200 Podcast Chart (by the end of 2018).   So I communicated my desire to the Universe, I came up with a plan and took inspired action every single day   Today's message is simple....be intentional about what you want, make a plan and take inspired action every single day!   Contact Info: Follow me on Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/the_luxe_elixir Join my FREE Facebook Group - The Luxe Girl Society at  https://www.facebook.com/groups/336601143462098  Find out how we can work together on: https://www.luxe-elixir.com   Or email me on: maggie@luxe-elixir.com   See you next time!

One thing we're all guilty of is OVERCOMPLICATING everything!   We do this without thinking, almost like a natural reflex.   We then build something up in our heads so much, that we then freak out and stop ourselves from achieving great things!  Today I'm sharing with you WHY we need to keep things SIMPLE!   Connect with Maggie here:  On Instagram at: https://www.instagram.com/the_luxe_elixir OR, join her Facebook Group - The Luxe Girl Society at  https://www.facebook.com/groups/336601143462098  Or email her on: maggie@luxe-elixir.com   See you next time!

Today I'm interviewing Charlotte Francis - the game changing entrepreneur, taking the toy industry by storm! Charlotte is the creator of Biankha and friends - a range of dolls designed to empower, motivate and inspire, in particular young girls of colour, to excel in the 21st century. After noticing a shortage in the availability of ethnic dolls on the high street and low morale and low self-esteem amongst young girls of colour, Charlotte made it her mission to do something about it. Hear all about Charlotte's story, including why she's set to go global and her exciting talks with key players in the cartoon & animation industry! Oh and did I mention that Charlotte is also a single mum and she's a full time Maths teacher, when she's not taking the world of entrepreneurship by storm?!  You can find more information on Charlotte below:  Website: https://www.biankhaandfriends.com  Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/biankhaandfriends/    Maggie xx

Today's episode is inspired by two of my favourite topics....shopping and money! When we make purchases, we often view them in an unhealthy light. We think we're "spending" money, when nine times out of ten, we're actually "investing". Whether we're broadening our skillset or generally up-levelling our life, we often feel enormous guilt! Why is this?! Our feelings are largely down to our Money Mindset. In today's episode, I want to highlight one very important message - STOP feeling guilty for spending....instead, view your purchases as investing!  Don't forget, you can find more information about me as follows: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/the_luxe_elixir Website: www.luxe-elixir.com Or email me on: maggie@luxe-elixir.com   See you next time!
