The RAISE Podcast

This week we're joined by author and founder Poppy Jamie for a fascinating conversation about intuition, spirituality and rediscovering the magic in everyday life.Following years immersed in psychology, neuroscience and the science of happiness, Poppy shares why she felt drawn back to ancient wisdom, spirituality and the things in life that we can't always explain.We explore what it really means to trust your intuition, the power of synchronicities, why Poppy challenges the conventional approach to manifestation and how rituals, journaling and reconnecting with nature can help us live more intentionally.Poppy also opens up about her deeply personal experiences of pregnancy loss, fertility challenges and learning to surrender when life doesn't unfold as expected. She shares how these experiences have shaped her understanding of trust, grief and the unknown.From the relationship between science and spirituality to the importance of following our own desires rather than society's expectations, this is a thought-provoking conversation about finding meaning, trusting ourselves and making space for a little more magic in our lives.Thanks to our sponsors of this season:Healf Zone — comprehensive at-home blood testing that turns guesswork into a clear picture of your health. ⁠⁠⁠https://healf.com/WEARERAISE⁠⁠⁠One Skin — OS-01 Face Rich Cream launches on the 22nd September, and you can use our partner code RAISE for 15% off, thats ⁠⁠⁠oneskin.co/RAISE⁠⁠⁠fatty15 — The longevity supplement that has taken hold of the wellness industry, containing unique compound C15:0.

This week we're joined by functional health practitioner Mark Dini for a fascinating conversationabout whether we've started to overcomplicate wellness.After experiencing his own significant health challenges, Mark's work evolved from personaltraining and nutrition into functional health, blood testing, peptides, circadian health and what hedescribes as quantum biology.We talk about the foundations Mark believes are often overlooked - getting outside first thing in themorning, natural light, grounding, circadian rhythms and creating an environment that bettersupports our biology, and why he believes these should come before adding endless supplementsand wellness protocols.We also get into functional testing, habit change, peptides and Mark's own daily non-negotiables, aswell as why sometimes doing the simple things consistently can be harder than buying the nextquick fix.A really interesting conversation about stripping wellness back, understanding your own body anddoing the common things uncommonly well.Follow Mark Dini here: @markdiniofficialThanks to our sponsors of this season:Healf Zone — comprehensive at-home blood testing that turns guesswork into a clear picture of your health. ⁠https://healf.com/WEARERAISE⁠One Skin — OS-01 Face Rich Cream launches on the 22nd September, and you can use our partner code RAISE for 15% off, thats ⁠oneskin.co/RAISE⁠Fatty15 — The longevity supplement that has taken hold of the wellness industry, containing unique compound C15.

What would happen if you started treating your life with the same intention, vision and strategy you’d use to run a business?This week, we’re joined by entrepreneur and author Hermione Olivia to explore what it really means to become the CEO of your own life.We talk about getting clear on what you actually want, creating a vision that feels true to you and building the habits and systems that help turn that vision into reality. Hermione shares why doing more isn’t always the answer, how to recognise when it’s time to pivot, and why taking ownership of where your time and energy go can completely change the way you experience your life.We also dive into ambition, motherhood, productivity, identity, knowing when to say no, and the difference between a life that looks successful from the outside and one that actually feels good to live.If you’ve been feeling stuck, living on autopilot or simply questioning what you want your next chapter to look like, this conversation is an invitation to get intentional and start creating a life that feels like yours.Thank you for listening!

This week we’re joined by Holly Scarsella - brand and business consultant, investor and mum of three - for a powerful, no-fluff business masterclass on how to build, grow and scale a business in today’s digital world. Holly shares her journey from working in PR for global brands to founding and selling her own fashion label, before moving into consultancy and mentoring female-led businesses. Drawing on real-world experience, she breaks down what actually separates businesses that succeed from those that struggle, especially in an oversaturated online market. We explore the importance of mastering the fundamentals before chasing growth, why conversion matters more than visibility, and how understanding your customer journey, touchpoints and retention strategy can completely transform a business. Holly also unpacks why many founders rush to scale too soon, how to know if your business is actually ready and the honest questions every founder needs to ask themselves about capacity, risk and sustainability.
