Ep.62 The Wilder Way: Redefining Female Entrepreneurship with Nicky Elliott

Enjoyed this episode? Send me a text!

Nicky Elliott, founder of The Wilder Collective, joins us to shake up the ordinary and reimagine a life of bold purpose. Together, we challenge the conformity of hustle culture and explore Nicky’s transition from creating a kids' unisex clothing brand during lockdown to leading a thriving community for female founders and freelancers. Nicky’s “wild thinker” philosophy inspires us to dance between society’s expectations and our own authentic paths, crafting a life that celebrates the beauty in the everyday chaos.

We discuss modern entrepreneurship and balancing life’s demands, with insights drawn from Nicky’s evolution and personal anecdotes. Inspired by Eve Rodsky's "Fair Play," we explore the intricacies of domestic responsibility and the mental load, advocating for equitable partnerships in both business and personal realms.

The entrepreneurial path is fraught with uncertainty, yet it's this very unpredictability that fuels growth and innovation. From winding up her clothing brand to discovering newfound purpose through community building, Nicky shares her experience and knowledge on leveraging existing skills to create meaningful, service-based ventures with minimal financial risk. You may not consider yourself a rule-breaker but we are all capable of 'wild thinking' to help navigate life's situations with creativity and a rebellious spirit...

*talking of rebellious spirit, watch out for a few stray F-bombs in this one!* 😜

Have you ever felt trapped by the daily grind and responsibilities, shrunk yourself to 'fit in' or followed the rules then realised they didn't bring you the success or happiness you'd been promised? Tick, tick and tick. My life had plateaued, my unused potential was wasting away and I felt powerless to change anything. I wanted to escape but instead of running away, I decided that ordinary is optional, and I could DECIDE to live authentically, put FUN back on the agenda and do more of the things that made me feel alive. This podcast is one of them and through these conversations I'd love nothing more than to be able to help you do the same!
