Failure To Launch: We're finally doing this
Manage episode 485854623 series 3668828
Welcome to the very first episode of Loosely Speaking, where friendship meets real talk and nothing is off limits. Three best friends turned entrepreneurs—Lauren, Madi, and Laura—come together in Lauren's brand new studio space to launch a podcast they've been dreaming about for years.
The title "Failure to Launch" carries beautiful irony as the trio explains their vision: creating a space for authentic conversations about life, business, relationships, and personal growth. As Madi puts it, "With the three of us together, we can't lose—nothing to lose, everything to gain." This sentiment of sisterhood and support forms the foundation of what promises to be a podcast filled with candid conversations, expert guests, and genuine connection.
Each host introduces herself, offering listeners a glimpse into their unique journeys. Lauren, 28, owns Flow State Creative and has recently opened a collaborative space called Theia. She shares how she's finally reached a place of peace balancing motherhood to two young children with her entrepreneurial ambitions. Madi, 27, reveals her current transitional phase after leaving a decade in real estate, now exploring multiple ventures while studying digital marketing—a self-described "reinvention phase" that she's navigating with openness and curiosity. Laura, a successful florist running Solasta Blooms in Sydney's Northern Beaches, speaks about finding contentment as both a business owner and mother, having built a beautiful life with her husband of 13 years.
What shines through most clearly is the authentic friendship between these women and their desire to invite listeners into conversations that feel like sitting down with your best friends—sometimes deep, sometimes hilarious, but always real. The hosts promise future episodes will explore everything from business challenges to relationships, bringing in experts across various fields while maintaining their signature candid approach.
