In this episode of PR LIKE A BOSS! I sit down with the iconic Jane Cunningham, the voice behind The British Beauty Blogger for a juicy Part II, this time to talk about her Substack post: “The Worst Launch I Ever Did See (And Why I Left After Ten Minutes)”, that sent the beauty community buzzing.
The story? A MAC Cosmetics event that started with promise and ended in awkward silence. Picture this: a sleek London venue, 13 floors up, with beautiful lighting and… absolutely no one saying hello. No greeting, no offer to take a coat, not even a coffee.
Jane tells it like it is:
“It’s like putting on an invisibility cloak. Nobody looked up, nobody spoke, it was hideous.”
Her experience sparked an honest conversation about what’s going wrong in beauty PR and how easily it can be fixed.
Together we explore:

If you’ve ever tried meditation and ended up writing your shopping list instead (like me), this one’s for you.
In this week’s episode of PR LIKE A BOSS!, I sat down with Dominique Antiglio, Wellness Entrepreneur, Sophrology Expert and Founder of BeSophro to explore the surprisingly powerful connection between breathwork and business.
Sophrology, as Dominique explains, is a mind–body practice that blends breathing, gentle movement, relaxation and visualisation to calm the nervous system and unlock new potential. “Think meditation,” she says, “but for people who can’t sit still.”
Having trained under Dr. Alfonso Caycedo, the founder of Sophrology, Dominique is now pioneering the practice in the English-speaking world through BeSophro and her best-selling book The Life-Changing Power of Sophrology. Her client list reads like a who’s who of high performance, Amazon, Bloomberg, The UK Government, The World Economic Forum, The Wellcome Trust and even Silicon Valley founders.
The episode touches on everything from reframing limiting beliefs (yes, your brain really can be retrained) to using Sophrology as a storytelling tool, helping leaders project the confident, calm energy they want to put out into the world.
Dominique also shares practical advice for entrepreneurs dealing with digital overwhelm, trolls and tight deadlines: “Sometimes you just need to jump on the spot, shake it out and remember, stress can also mean excitement.”

When you think of game-changing beauty brands, HD Brows, Nouveau Lashes and Karen Betts Professional, there’s one name behind them all: Karen Betts. In this episode of PR LIKE A BOSS! we talk about how Karen went from tattooing brows in the 90s to shaping a billion-pound industry (literally).
Karen shared the PR moment that changed everything, appearing on the Katie Piper: My Beautiful Face documentary, which opened the nation’s eyes to the power of permanent makeup. “People realised it wasn’t block brows anymore, it was delicate artistry that gave people confidence back,” she recalls.
From there, Karen became the go-to expert for life-changing treatments, working with Extreme Makeover, 10 Years Younger and even helping clients with alopecia and breast cancer reclaim confidence through her pioneering techniques.
Karen also dropped some unforgettable celebrity moments:
✨ Katie Price bringing a TV crew into her training academy (the phones didn’t stop ringing after that one).
✨ Amy Childs launching her salon with Nouveau Lashes on TOWIE.
✨ Michelle Keegan becoming the face of LVL Lashes, cementing the brand’s cult status.

If you’ve ever wondered how your fave celebs end up wearing that necklace or that face tool before it’s even hit your feed… then this episode is your front-row seat to brand-building magic.
On this week’s PR LIKE A BOSS!, Patz is joined by Andraya Kenton, founder of Celeste Starre, MeMe London, and the newest beauty baby on the block, Luna Roca. We talked about how she’s turned her jewellery into red carpet regulars (hi J.Lo, Gigi, Blake & co), how her latest product, the volcanic-powered Rock & Roller blew up on Forbes and TikTok and why she believes true luxury in 2025 is all about being cool, credible and convenient.
From celeb seeding strategies to why the best PR starts with product obsession, Andraya shares the real behind-the-scenes of building buzz without blowing the budget.
And yes… we played a little game called Pitch It or Pack It, where Andraya had to decide whether "Crystal-charged press-on nails for manifestation" were a beauty boom or brand bust. 👀

In this episode of PR LIKE A BOSS!, I sit down with Paris Welton, co-founder of Connected PR and Adaptogenic Apothecary, to explore a career that spans nearly 25 years in PR and a bold pivot into the world of wellness.
Paris reveals how keeping Connected PR deliberately small and nimble has been the key to thriving in a constantly evolving media landscape. With a team of seasoned pros (and not a junior in sight), they’ve built a reputation for fast, creative, and effective campaigns. Case in point? Insuring a cheese grader’s nose for £1 million to get Wyke Farms global headlines.
But Paris didn’t stop at PR. Alongside her sister Jodie, she co-founded Adaptogenic Apothecary — an award-winning supplement brand born from their own perimenopause journey. What began as a search for natural support has grown into a wellness disruptor. Paris gets candid about the lessons learned along the way, from tackling spreadsheets to working with business coach Renee Elliott (founder of Planet Organic).
Key takeaways:
If you’re ready for a masterclass in blending PR savvy with entrepreneurial grit plus a reminder that even cheese can make world news, this episode is for you.

Why did Nadine Baggott, veteran beauty journalist, Times columnist, TV presenter, expert content creator — turn down a six-figure campaign with a refillable natural deodorant brand? Simple. Because it was rooted in fear, not facts.
“Clean beauty is a conspiracy. It’s all bullshit. Complete and utter bullshit.”
🔥 Yes, she said it — and we loved her for it.
In this episode, Nadine breaks down how the beauty industry has become a minefield of misinformation, how algorithms have fuelled fear-based marketing and why brands need to stop chasing trends that undermine science.
She explains why she values clinical trials over consumer opinions, how the industry went from structured to chaotic in under a decade and why authenticity and expertise matter more now than ever before.
