  S3 E19: Who Actually Pays When You Build a Company | Louisa Plint

  Sep 24, 20261h 10mS3

  Louisa Plint is a third-time founder at 34 who started her first business at 20. She's now the CEO of AuxPay and Auxeris, building fintech tools to fix one of the most persistent and painful problems in business - recruiters not getting paid on time. But this episode goes far beyond B2B payments. Louisa and Sabrina get into the hiring crisis and the AI cold war that's made finding good people harder than ever - candidates using AI to bulk apply, recruiters using AI to vet them, and the actual quality of the candidate not moving an inch. There's a brilliant conversation about red flags in interviews, why being genuinely human with your team beats polish every time, and why AI outreach is quietly killing real relationships. 00:00 – Intro 01:05 – Meet Louisa Plint 03:36 – Fixing late payments in recruitment 13:58 – The AI hiring cold war 17:39 – Red flags when hiring 33:18 – Stop polishing everything 45:26 – Burnout: nearly quitting the business 01:01:16 – Poker as training for entrepreneurship 01:06:28 – When Trump killed her investment deal Louisa's website: https://www.auxeris.com ‍ Louisa's LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louisa-plint Louisa's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/plinterstellar

They get into why 90% of podcasts don't survive past seven episodes, the difference between audio and video podcasts, and why serving a niche audience of 100 people will always beat chasing a general audience of thousands.

  S3 E17: The Woman Selling Impact Back to the Attention Economy with Isvari Maranwe

  Sep 10, 202645 minS3

  Isvari Maranwe has had one of the most unconventional career paths you'll hear on this podcast - from particle physics and supernova cosmology, to national security law, to US government attorney, to accidental influencer with 350,000 followers, to founder of two platforms with a shared mission: fix what's broken about social media and the media industry itself.In this episode, Isvari joins Sabrina to break down why she's building Yu Voice - a social media platform that rewards real-world impact over engagement, follower counts and dopamine hits. She also explains why she turned down a $2 million predatory investment offer AND an acquisition offer from a major competitor who simply wanted to buy her idea and shut it down.Along the way, they get into the loneliness economy - why social media is literally designed to keep you single, isolated and spending - what authentic content actually looks like versus what people perform online, and how Isvari built a following that genuinely shows up for her by refusing to be anyone other than exactly who she is.

  S3 E16: The Company of One: Build a Profitable Business Without the Burnout with Harri Davies

  Sep 3, 202657 minS3

  Video Summary Harri Davies hasn't applied for a job since 2011. Instead, he's spent his career finding founders with real problems and pitching himself as the person to solve them - from corporate law and tackling inequality in the legal profession, to running an accelerator helping graduates and mid-career professionals build profitable businesses from scratch. In this episode, Harri joins Sabrina to make a compelling case for the "Company of One" - a model that prioritises autonomy, profitability and freedom over headcount, VC funding and vanity metrics. They get into why the CV is becoming obsolete, what employers actually want from young people right now, and how AI is creating more opportunity than it's destroying - if you know how to use it.

  Adama is a senior software engineer, YouTuber with 185k subscribers, powerlifter, oil painter, and founder of The Multi Passionate Professional - and she has spent years figuring out how to make all of it work together, not despite each other.In this episode, Adama joins Sabrina to dig into what it really means to build a personal brand when you have multiple passions, and why the standard advice to "niche down" is actively working against people like them. They get into her Renaissance Positioning Formula, why business owners and content creators need completely different strategies, and why chasing views is one of the fastest ways to burn out if you're a founder.There's also a genuinely refreshing conversation about authenticity - what it actually means versus the performative version being sold online - and why you absolutely do not need to share your whole life to build trust with an audience.
