I wasn’t going to release this because when we initially recorded my mic wasn’t turned on, so my vocals compared to my guest was super low but thanks to my amazing engineer, who was able to make me sound loud enough. So here it is, I hope you enjoy this weeks episode with another Congolese babe Noella Ndaya who some of you will know her as Ella The Body. First things first, trust me when I say she’s more than just The Body! With beauty and brains Noella is all about her business and her brand.
On this episode we talk fitness and what motivated her to start the page Ella The Body! Inspiring other women to get their bodies right, the right way. We also touch on body insecurities and our own personal relationship with weight and food.
We discuss her main Bread and Butter; Hair by Noella. Her vision for her business and getting to a point where she can charge the prices that reflects the quality of her work. We can only Stan!!
I hope you enjoy the episode, please stay safe and stay home! x

Joelle Avelino is the perfect mix of taking chances and the power of pray when it comes to her career.
It was an absolute pleasure talking to this incredible Congolese artist who’s clients include BBC, The Guardian, The Washington Post: The Lily, Backstage, Ivy Kids, Daydreamers press and The Wild Honey Pies just to name a few. Her work is a clear representation of her world and the world around her.
We discuss representation and how important it is for us in our chosen careers and of course our kids.
I’m always looking for mummy advice from those who seem to have it figured out or at least have their own routine.
As a fellow skincare junkie, Joelle shares some gems!
