HONEST with Pandora Paloma

In this soul-stirring episode of the HONEST Series, I sit down with MJ, founder of The Being Method, to explore the raw, real and revolutionary ways that motherhood shapes our businesses - and how systems, sensitivity and self-trust can help us scale sustainably. MJ shares her journey from dropping out of osteopathy school, walking away from a successful skincare brand and launching a breathwork certification business while navigating two back-to-back pregnancies. Together, we share how grief has been a big part of the creation of our missions and unpack the power of nervous system safety, building businesses that honor our values and redefining success beyond the numbers. If you’ve ever wondered how to build a business that holds you - not just your income - this episode will land deeply. On the show... MJ’s unconventional path to entrepreneurship and what she walked away from to build what she has now How motherhood clarified her values and fuelled her decision to build for freedom and flexibility Why systems and subscriptions created safety during postpartum (and how to think about them at each stage of growth) What it means to model success and self-love for your children while growing a business A candid look at failed launches, identity shifts and the messy middle of scaling The mindset MJ returns to when navigating guilt, growth and getting back up after setbacks Key Takeaways: The “one product, one platform” approach MJ started with - and how she’s scaling differently now Behind the scenes of her DM-based sales funnel and how she uses automation without losing connection Her perspective on what creates safety in business (hint: it’s not certainty, it’s creativity) How MJ and her team use values-led marketing, team communication, and SOPs to run a multi-six-figure company, while keeping her working hours mum-friendly Reflections on grief, purpose, and creating impact through service-based business Quotes to Remember: “You can build a business that works with your nervous system - not against it.” “I don’t want anyone else telling me when I can go to the zoo with my kids.” “You have to be creative. You can have it all - but you have to design it that way.” “Our kids don’t need perfection. They need to see us model possibility.” MJ’s Book: How to Cry is out NOW A must-read for anyone told they’re “too sensitive” or struggling to feel anything at all. MJ’s upcoming book explores the science and soul of emotion, crying, and the nervous system. Stay tuned on Instagram for the launch.

If there's one thing I took from this it's, your story is allowed to evolve, your business gets to feel good and your version of success is valid.

Turning 40 has a strange way of sneaking up on you. It doesn’t feel like a big deal - until it arrives. And then suddenly, you’re reflecting on how far you’ve come, how much you’ve grown and everything it took to become the person you are now. In this special HONEST episode, I’m sharing 40 of the biggest lessons I’ve learned along the way - about business, motherhood, self-trust, identity, and building a life (and company) that actually feels like yours. If you’ve ever questioned your pace, your path, or your power - this one’s for you. What you’ll hear: How identity and self-belief fuel sustainable leadership - and why visibility is the starting point. The messaging shift that actually converts in 2025 - resonance over relevance, words over hustle. Why sustainable success requires structure - and how to build for depth, not dopamine. What strong brands are really made of - clarity, conviction, and consistency over trends. The lessons life and motherhood teach about business - and the power of emotional boundaries and becoming.

We’re not in 2020 anymore. The content that built six-figure years and months back is not what’s converting now. In this week’s HONEST episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the biggest messaging shift I’ve seen in years and how it’s rebuilding trust, reactivating buyers and reshaping the way we sell. The old tactics? Over. What’s cutting through in 2025? Resonance. If your content is feeling flat or your conversions have stalled, this conversation will show you why (and what to do instead). In this episode, I cover: The New Buyer Landscape Why it’s not your offer - it’s your message How buyer behaviour has shifted toward emotional safety, clarity, and trust The myths that are still keeping people stuck And What Works Now in 2025 Real over rehearsed Value-aligned sales copy Messaging that mirrors your audience’s inner world If your words aren’t landing the way they used to, tune in and make a shift.

How many of us are waiting for permission to walk through a door that’s already open? In today’s HONEST episode, I’m diving into the idea of perceived limitation - the cages we create in our minds, the stories we tell ourselves about why we can’t move and the truth that changes everything: the door is already open. If you’ve been feeling stuck, like you’re waiting for something or someone to give you the green light… this episode is for you. In this episode: The cage we create and how fear can disguise itself as responsibility Why comfort isn’t the same as freedom What’s waiting for you beyond the cage: self-trust, expansion, alignment The 3 reflection questions to explore if you’re feeling stuck in the cage Links & Resources: 🎧 Loved this episode?

“Ease isn’t something we stumble across. It’s something we build.” In this week’s episode, I’m sharing a deeply personal reflection on how I’ve created true spaciousness in my business, and how you can too.

What if the feeling of being “stuck” in your business isn’t stuckness at all, but survival mode disguised as success? In this deeply reflective episode, I explore how survival doesn’t always look like struggle and how perfection, pressure and performance can quietly shape our business decisions.

Last week, I made £10,000 in my business and only 10% of it came from funnels. The other 90% was from women who’ve worked with me before. They came back because they felt held, seen and remembered - they trusted me to deliver and right now, trust is the new currency. In this episode of HONEST, I’m sharing why and how to build a business that prioritises trust. I talk about: What’s changing in the online space The difference between urgency and resonance How to lead in a way that creates real return clients What trust looks like in offers, your content and everyday presence Why being deeply human is your most powerful strategy This is a call back to the kind of business you want to build: one rooted in truth, ease and long-term relationships - not trends, because you know they never last forever!

Are you thinking about whether to jump into Black Friday this year? It’s one of the biggest sales events in retail, and it can be a double-edged sword for small businesses.  For me, Black Friday has usually been a “take it or leave it” event — I rarely plan my shopping around it. But with my recent home renovation, I found myself actually calling a company to check if they’d be offering a Black Friday deal! It just goes to show that sometimes our needs and perspectives can shift. And maybe this year, you’re rethinking Black Friday, too. Here’s what I’m talking about in this episode: The power of Black Friday in Q4 sales The drawbacks of deep discounts Trends and tips to maximise your impact The ethical side of Black Friday Resources: Follow me on Instagram @PandoraPaloma_  Join us in London for the Scale in a Day Retreat HERE Learn more about Consultancy & 1:1 offers HERE Join Be Reel HERE

Have you ever had that moment where you’re faced with a decision so big it shakes you to your core?    Well, I had one of those moments recently, and it’s time to spill the tea. 🍵    I invested £84,000 in business mentoring – the biggest financial leap I've taken yet. And trust me, it wasn’t just about the money (though that number is hard to ignore, right?!).   I had to move through fear, doubt, and every limiting belief that popped up.    And that’s what I’m sharing with you in this episode: what it means to truly trust yourself, even when the stakes feel sky-high. I’m opening up about what it felt like to sit with that discomfort and how, just two months later, I’m already seeing the fruits of that leap.   Here’s a quick rundown of what we dive into: How I processed the biggest investment I’ve ever made and the feelings that came with it. Learning to trust the physical “yes” or “no” that your body always knows. Why it’s never really about the money and how we often hold ourselves back in ways we don’t even realise. How taking bold steps (whether it’s investing £84K or sending that pitch email) changes your reality.

I had the absolute joy of reconnecting with Dr. Jodi Duval, a former client, and the powerhouse behind Revital Health in Australia. She’s a naturopathic physician with over 15 years of experience and is also the CEO of nonprofit HOMe/HOPe. Beyond her thriving clinic, Jodi’s story is one of deep personal growth, building systems from the ground up, and creating a space for holistic wellness. Let me tell you — this conversation was a beautiful reminder that behind every successful business, there are critical foundations we need to lay first. Sometimes it's the unsexy, behind-the-scenes work, like systems, structures, and tracking data, that makes all the difference. In fact, when Jodi and I first started working together, it was all about setting these strong foundations. We talked about what that journey was like for her and how these “boring” elements ultimately created more freedom in her business. Here’s a sneak peek at what we discussed: How building automated processes helped Jodi take her business to the next level and focus on what matters most. How tracking her business metrics revealed she was growing faster than she thought — and why this knowledge is so crucial. How embracing spirituality and mindset shifts helped her overcome imposter syndrome and become a more effective leader for her team. Jodi's personal non-negotiables for wellness and why consistent self-care is essential for every entrepreneur.
