On this episode of The Break, I sit down with Nicole from The London Accountant to unpack how UK business tax really works and why so many new entrepreneurs feel overwhelmed when they start a limited company. We get into the real gaps in financial education, from misunderstanding how accounting actually works to why tax fear holds so many people back from growing.
We talk through the most common tax mistakes small business owners make, from director’s loans and corporation tax surprises to pricing issues that quietly hurt profitability. Nicole also explains why monthly financial visibility, personal budgeting, and building a simple financial model before starting a business can completely change your results.

In this episode I’m joined by my husband, Mike Bright. Some of you will know Mike from the early days of my content creation, where he used to feature a lot more than he does now. Because he’s played a huge part in my entrepreneurial journey, I thought it would be interesting to shed some light on the complexities of balancing our personal lives, online content creation and finances. We get into our attitudes towards money, our financial compatibility; from how that plays a role in our partnership to how we actually manage our finances. If you’re in a relationship, this is a must have discussion and I’m glad we had them early as it’s one of the pillars to our success as a couple.

In this episode, I speak with the founder of S’ABLE, Sabrina Elba. Sabrina’s life has taken many turns: from her experiences with university, navigating finances, finding her voice, and cultivating a positive mindset to following her heart to leave Canada and live in the UK with her husband, Idris Elba. As an entrepreneur, we discuss some of the struggles along the way of building a brand and how she got to the success that S’ABLE is today. Plus, we talk about how colourism is very much alive and kicking in the predominantly whitewashed ‘wellness and beauty’ space and how Sabrina has created S’ABLE to go against this grain. Despite the challenges, Sabrina Elba shines. By riding these waves, she has proven more than ever her brand power, and the excitement she has for its future.
