If there was ever an episode to listen to at the start of September, this is it.
This week, I’m joined by entrepreneur, author and former UK & EU CEO of JSHealth Vitamins, Hermione Olivia, to talk about her new book, CEO Yourself, and what it really means to take control of your own life.
Hermione has spent her career building businesses, leading teams and navigating the realities of life at CEO level. Today, she is the founder of CEO Yourself, a platform centred around personal leadership, as well as the founder of Untold Mould, a business born from her own experience of discovering mould in her family home.
In this conversation, we take the principles Hermione has learnt in business and ask: what happens when we apply them to our own lives?
We unpack the idea behind CEO Yourself and Hermione’s CEO Cycle, a framework designed to take you from vision and strategy through to the habits that ultimately help you find flow. We talk about why clarity creates momentum, how to get really specific about what you actually want, and why you absolutely do not need to have all the answers before you begin.
We also talk about the power of changing direction. Not every opportunity is the right opportunity, and not every path you start down has to be the one you stay on.
