Belinda Neame is a content creator, stylist and storyteller, the creator of Canberra Street food festival “The Forage” and super host of the stunning Hold Cottage.

We cha about unlocking the box of creation and creativity and not being able to close it again…

What happens when you give your whole self to someone else’s dream and your identity becomes merged with what you do….

Taking risks and starting things, when you have no idea how to get started, and allowing your community to support you in all of the many micro steps and firsts along the way.

Like so many of us, Belinda’s story isn’t all roses. Through the pandemic she lost her dream job producing a beautiful publication and had to close both the street food festival and the cottage. Belinda is joining us in what I’ve referred to as her rebuild, and we all know the comeback is greater than the setback.

There’s just so much to take away from this chat.

A business podcast for the brave self-employed.

Growing your own business can be one of the most gratifying, wonderful, life-changing experiences around. It’s also scary as hell. This is a weekly podcast for the ones who have made the brave decision to employ themselves anyway.

We're for the full gamut of business experience - from Solopreneurs, Side-hustlers, Micro-business, Small Business, Medium business, Independent, VC backed, Bootstrapped and more - here for the real stories and priceless insights of it all, well beyond the PR headlines.

Join fellow business-builder and side-hustler Kim Kerton as she dives into the realities of starting something from scratch, helping you feel less alone in the lows and reminding you of the highs that make it all worthwhile. Hear real talk and raw feels from people right in the thick of it and feel seen as you listen.

Small business is tough - all business is tough - it will be one of the most intense things you'll ever do but it will also be the most impactful experience you can imagine. So surround yourself with a community of business owners willing to share with you their learnings, from those a few steps ahead, to many business milestones ahead, and even those just behind, and feel supported to build the business of your unique dreams. 

This is a podcast built to support you to build your own small business, to tackle the statistics and keep more of us in business for ourselves. To say thanks, you can support this independent podcast and small business by shouting your host a cuppa at buymeacoffee.com/unemployedpod

Get in touch at unemployedandafraid.com.au to be part of the show or to become a sponsor (we would love the support!).
