Dive into the incredible story of Jordan Jones, the mastermind behind a viral sensation and one of the UK’s fastest-growing independent fashion brands. Jordan started small in a quiet Cambridgeshire town, where he faced criticism and ridicule from his peers for pursuing his dream of starting his own brand. Instead of giving up, this adversity fueled his determination to succeed.

Jordan’s breakthrough began with the help of ASOS, where he was treated as a rising star in the fashion world. He later partnered with Foot Asylum, only to face setbacks when the retailer failed to uphold their agreements. During the pandemic, Jordan made the bold and risky decision to leave these partnerships behind, going fully direct-to-consumer. This move allowed him to take full ownership of his business and customers, including celebrity fans like Jamie Foxx and Jake Paul.

Now operating as a highly successful eight-figure fashion company, Jordan shares his journey of navigating challenges, making tough decisions, and staying true to his vision. In this conversation, we explore his experiences with retailers, the struggles of scaling a brand, and the strategy behind his direct-to-consumer success.

We also touch on his thoughts about why ASOS has struggled, his innovative approach to getting celebrities to wear his brand, and the personal guilt he feels with every new milestone of success. This is more than just a story about fashion; it’s a testament to resilience, bold choices, and the drive to prove doubters wrong.

If you’re an aspiring entrepreneur or someone looking to grow a direct-to-consumer brand, Jordan’s blueprint for success is one you don’t want to miss. His insights, humility, and relatability make this conversation a must-listen for anyone chasing their dreams in business or beyond.

Tune in to hear how Jordan turned his challenges into triumphs and built a brand that continues to inspire countless others.

Aimee Smale is the perfect role model to every aspiring female founder…

Aimee Smale is the perfect role model every woman needs to listen to…

She started odd muse in 2020, risking her house savings to bring her passion project to life.

In 2024 she will turn over £20M…

A far way away from the £1m she always dreamed of.

She fixed a problem that needed solving… she attacked fast fashion head on and has helped slow it down.

Aimee started a movement and built a community of a more sustainable, conscious, savvy customer, helping build there wardrobes slowly & reducing throway away fashion culture.

Fast Fashion brands are falling whilst Aimee and OddMuse lead the way to new horizons.

But now, Aimee wants to slow down.

She’s experienced so much growth in the last 3 years that recently it’s affected her mentally.

She became stressed, burn out & needed rest.

Odd Muse could do £50M next year, but Aimee doesn’t want to.

I spoke with Aimee after she’d just got home from having one month off.

A month break where she relaxed, refrained and reflected on what she actually wants out of her company.

A journey all of her followers feel like there on with her.

On Social media Aimee is honest, transparent and welcoming.

Her approach to her audience is one I’ve never seen before.

It may seem candid, relaxed an open - but there is a reason for each and every post.

Her creation has been so impressive that people mistake her brand as an ‘influencer brand’

But that’s simply not true.

Her brand made her an influencer because of how good her product is and how much her customers love her.

I uncover…

• The real reason she is so open with her customers
• Her secret’s on social that everyone normally ignores
• Why her brand is thriving whilst fast fashion is going into decline
• How she is now having cultural impact
• Why she actually has a shop in Covent Garden
• The tricks she uses that brands like fear of god and Cole Buxton have also used that have helped grow her brand so quickly…

If you’re serious about growing a fashion brand today, you want to understand what it really takes to succeed on different social media platforms or you simply want a female role model in your life - there is no better person to listen to than Aimee Smale.

Tommy Mallet has been through things you wouldn’t wish on your worst enemy.

Over the last 18 months he’s:

Suffered a devastating loss of his baby to a miscarriage.

The brand he founded took him to court…

& he was diagnosed with ADHD…He’s lost it all.

But none of that has given any sign that it’s stopped him. In fact, it’s motivated him even more.

He promised me he’s on his way to new heights that only few can imagine.

Before today, He’s never spoken in so much detail about his traumatic experiences. Tommy Founded Mallet London at the age of 23. JD bought into him, then he bought them back out. He made himself and the people around him multi millionaires.He took the brand global, even cracking the states, something very few entrepreneurs are able to do.

But Tommy was very 1 dimensional, he never celebrated his wins, he was so focused on reaching his goals that he allowed nothing to get in his way…But now he’s changed…After a toxic relationship with his business partner sealed his decision to resign from his own company…He started a new brand… CTRNE, the worlds first crystal infused sneaker.

He now talks about how life is for living

How everything is already written for you

His experience with Spirits and psychics.

How becoming a dad changed him.

This is by far the most goosebumps I’ve ever had in the space of 2 hours.

Tommy’s ability to story tell is impeccable. His energy is infectious and his ethos on life is well worth listening too if you are open minded.

You believe everything he says because he says it with so much conviction. It’s impossible not to be intrigued and inspired by the things words he spoke.If you’ve ever gone through tough times, if you have to deal with trauma, Tommys perspective on life will help you navigate your way through it.
