Episode 1 - We can. We will. with Jenna Meek, Founder of SHRINE - a podcast by She can. She did.

Hello everyone and welcome to series 3 of the She can. She did. podcast! (How are we on series 3 already!?)

As I’ve made reference to on Instagram already, over the coming weeks, this bonus series will be slightly different to the usual She can. She did. Podcast episodes that you might be used to because first and foremost, they will be coming to you daily over the next few weeks; they will be much shorter in the hope that you can pop on the kettle and tune in first thing so that they set you up for the day; but significantly, in light of the recent coronavirus outbreak and the unprecedented impact the virus has had on not just our day-to-day lives but the economy and for so many of us, our businesses too, they will be solely focused on the theme, ‘We can. We will.’…

...get through this, as business owners that is!

The aim of these episodes is simple.

Despite feeling the negative effects of the Coronavirus directly on She can. She did. throughout the course of last week in ways that I go on to explain in the intro, every ounce of me believes that if we all stay calm, grit our teeth and find new and innovative ways to adapt our business offerings over the coming weeks and months, together we can emerge from this storm with the brands that we've worked so hard to build (and our sanity too I hope!) intact.

I want these episodes to reinforce that.

To cut through the noise out there, to encourage every single one of us to persevere and to provide us all with ideas and inspiration so that we can learn from one another, think outside of the box and simply embrace the uncertainty that lies ahead.

With that in mind, I’ve decided to turn to the female founders that inspire me personally and ask them to open up to us all about the impact that the coronavirus has had and continues to have on their business and importantly for each and every one of us right now, find out how they are adapting to the current climate, evolving their strategies and navigating this uncertainty so that their business survives.

On Friday afternoon last week, I had my first Zoom call with Jenna Meek, the founder of SHRINE (formerly known as The Gypsy Shrine) - the disruptive cosmetic brand that Jenna launched on the back of festival culture in 2016 that has a product range stocked in multiple stores worldwide that spans everything from face jewels and glitter ranges worn by everyone from Paris Hilton to the cast of Love Island to her newly launched range of DIY hair dye kits with the world’s first hair dye dropper that allows you to create the exact shade you want.   

 

Two days prior to this recording, it was announced that Glastonbury Festival here in the UK had been cancelled and earlier this month Coachella has been postponed until later in the year. Two of the biggest dates in the SHRINE annual Calendar. This is Jenna's response to the outbreak so far...

She can. She did. is hosted by Fiona Grayson (that's me, hello!) and was launched in August 2017.

The good old social handles should you fancy a further peek!
