How to actually build better habits (and stop getting in your own way) with Nir Eyal
07/20/2026 | 1h 6 mins.A while back I did a video on habit theory and it kind of took on a life of its own, loads of you messaged me about it and it's still one of the most popular videos I’ve ever done. So when I heard that the expert I spoke to in that video was finally coming to the UK, I knew I needed to make a recording happen.
Nir Eyal is an author and lecturer who has spent years studying what makes humans tick, how habits actually form in the brain, why we're all so distracted and what people who achieve extraordinary things actually do differently with their days. Essentially, he’s an expert in a lot of the things we love to talk about on this side of the internet. I hope you love the episode!

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.- Today we’re getting into the actual science of great conversation and ultimately why curiosity is a more powerful social skill than charisma, and how to make yourself a better conversationalist in any scenario, whether that’s a first date, a job interview, or a catch up with a friend.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. - I came across this article in Vogue a few months ago now about whether the girlboss is making a comeback, and it really got me thinking, because it feels like we all lived through this era, watched it rise, watched it fall, and not taken the time or space to examine what's behind it
So in this episode, I want to use that article to break it down and have a big old chat all about it!

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. - I get asked all the time how to actually build a fashion brand, from roles to pricing to manufacturers, and honestly it’s something I’ve always been a bit hesitant to cover on my own because I only have my perspective from building TALA.
The reality is, fashion looks quite glamorous from the outside, but behind the scenes it’s a completely different story.
So I wanted to bring in someone who’s seen it across loads of brands. I’m joined by Elizabeth Stiles, a fashion consultant who’s worked across some of the biggest brands in the UK and now advises businesses on how to grow and scale.
Between the two of us, we’re breaking down exactly how a fashion brand actually works.
