Turn Your Anxiety into Your Superpower 🦸‍♀️

This week, dive into a powerful conversation between Emma Grede and her husband/business partner, Jens Grede.

This isn't just a talk about mixing love and business; it's a masterclass in resilience, self-creation, and reframing your entire mindset.

Jens shares his incredible journey, from leaving home at 16 with no contacts to co-founding globally successful brands, and his candid story of suffering from anxiety and how he reframed it from a weakness into his greatest "superpower"—a tool that helps him "see around the corners" and build success.

It’s a must-watch for anyone ready to embrace their challenges and build the life they want!

Don't Get Left Behind by AI 👩‍💻

This week's empowerment tip is a reality check from @stephthefounder.

She debunks the myth that AI levels the playing field—it actually widens the gap between superstars and everyone else. Top performers adopt it faster, use their expertise to filter out the "generic slop", and are seen as more capable for using it. The message is clear: AI isn't going anywhere. Empower yourself by "getting on the train now... to secure your own future".

A Masterclass in "Haute-Washing" 💲

This week's empowerment tip is all about being a smarter consumer.

This video from @twinbrett is a "masterclass in perceptions", breaking down the strategy of "haute-washing"—how brands appear more luxurious than they actually are.
