Psychology In Real Life
Psychology IRL is where psychology meets real life—no jargon, no fluff, just practical insights you can actually use. Hosted by Jemma, a coach and researcher with an MSc in Positive Psychology and Coaching Psychology, this podcast takes psychology out of the textbooks and into everyday situations. If you’re curious about how to build better habits, improve your mindset, or just understand yourself (and others) a little better, you’re in the right place. Each episode breaks down research-backed psychology into simple, actionable strategies to help you thrive—whether at work, in relationships, or in your personal growth journey.

In this episode, I chat with Sneha who after being made redundant during the pandemic, started an OBM business which has since grown into a multi 6 figure boutique agency in a short space of time.
One of the biggest takeaways of this episode is that Sneha was able to do this without showing up on video, even though she was told it wouldn't be possible.
What we chat about:
Feeling that you have to act and look a certain way in order to be successful and how Sneha moved past those mindset blocks
What the day-to-day role of an OBM looks like
The alternative ways Sneha has connected with clients that haven't involved the use of video
Why there was a need for a rebrand and what impact it will have on the business growth
The importance of the client experience and how it retains clients long term
