Hey guys! Welcome back to Channel Monday The Podcast (formerly known as The CEO Table Podcast). I know, I know - the consistency has been pants this year, but don't worry - we have a new system which means we are back to weekly episodes! Thank you guys for all the love & support on the podcast so far, it's 100% kept it going and for that, I am so so grateful.
This week I talk about certain mindsets/beliefs we all have that are holding us back from achieving our goals and how to combat them! Some of them DEFINITELY called me out on my bs so I hope it does the same for you. Often, we are our own obstacles and we don't even realize it, hopefully this episode can change that š

Hey guys! Welcome back to Channel Monday The Podcast (formerly known as The CEO Table Podcast). How is everyone?! In this week's episode, I talk about the power of knowing your own potential and how to truly tap into your capabilities. Self-belief is not an easy journey at all, but with some mindset shifts and practices, we can all get to where we are truly meant to be. As said in the episode, in order to do better you just have to do better and you will continue to play small if you continue to play small. I hope this episode helps bring you to a new height of unwavering confidence and makes you recognise the bad-a** you really are!
Love,
Chrissie

Hey guys! Welcome back to Channel Monday the podcast (formerly knows as The CEO Table). This year Iāve really taken the time out to understand what joy looks like for me and it has become one of my priorities. On the journey to achieving whatever it is I plan to achieve I donāt want to lose sight of the everyday and forget to appreciate the small things because Iām too focused on chasing the bigger things. The everyday makes up a large portion of our lives and as mundane as it may feel - itās up to us to add the joy back in.

The most common question I get asked is 'Chrissie, how do you even balance all of that?!' well here's my answer. I love everything that I do so I had to find a way to make it all work and finally after many failed attempts - I GOT IT.

In this week's episode, 2x National & London boxing champion Sedem Ama takes us through the mind of an undefeated athlete. Not only is Sedem a champion boxer, she's a PR account director who has worked for some of the biggest brands we know. With two equally demanding careers we just had to know how she does it all.
While, The CEO Table podcast has always focused on the minds of entrepreneurs, after exploring the world of fitness I decided to dive deeper and find out what it really takes to make a champion. The perseverance and dedication it takes to push yourself physically can do wonders for you mental toughness and tenacity. So with that being said - I hope you take away something valuable from this episode.

Over the last 3 weeks on the podcast I have sat in conversation with amazing black women to discuss racial identity and our experiences. ā£ā£
In this weeks episode I sit with Aba Amoah (@aba_abroad), she is one of the organisers for the Black Lives Matter protests which saw 20,000 people attend to stand against racial injustice. To be honest, I didnāt speak much in this episode - I listened as Aba shared her experiences of being a black woman in the USA, in China and in the UK. I listened as she spoke about the mission she is on to make a change and what we can do to help. ā£ā£
ā£ā£
The number one thing that I took from this episode is the importance of education. A weapon no one can take away from you. The more we all learn, the more we can all do to push the movement forward āš½ā£ā£

In this episode, due to the series of events that has taken place I sat down with one of my great friends, Loriane Mbayo, to really just unpack the black experience. The murder of George Floyd has sparked a global conversation that black people, despite being unheard, have been trying to have for years. We spoke about our frustrations, our reactions and our experiences as black women. The last few weeks have been heavy for the black community, and I really wanted a safe space to talk because like a lot of us, I was angry, I was tired and I was disappointed.

Happy Tuesday everyone! In today's episode we talk about the myths about motivation. I asked you guys what you are currently struggling with a while back and a vast majority of you said Motivation. I believe that motivation is fleeting, it's temporary and if we depend too much on it - it will take us no where... listen to the full episode to find out why,

This week we sat with Adesola (Adessy) , founder of the Navigate series. Hosted by Adessy, Navigate engages 20 somethings in conversations about their adulting journeys through a series of light-hearted discussions. This 6 part video series is not meant to provide a solution to everyoneās woes, but rather to show that people are not alone. From finances to careers, to even relationships Navigate unpacks it all. Leaving no area untouched. Hopefully, itāll help relieve some of the pressures associated with ābecoming an adult in the twenty-first century.
We had a pretty honest and straight up conversation about navigating adulthood, our favourite parts, the confusing parts and everything we learnt in between. Adessy's take on intentional living was so refreshing to hear, how she carries herself in her work, her daily habits and her attitude is no doubt a key factor in her success so far.

So 9 to 5ās - every entrepreneurās/side hustlers worst nightmare right? It used to be mine too but after a year in my first major career step I realised how much itās taught me about myself, about running a business, about discipline and all the other things in between.
I often hear the excuse of so many - I want to build my business ābut I just donāt have time after workā - I was the same too. After 6 months of being terrible at balancing, I finally got the hang of it (so far) - watch this episode to find out more about how I transformed and how you can do it too š¤
