Happy International Women's day!! Thank you so much for listening to the podcast- we created this as a way for us to empower other women and to use our voice and we appreciate every single listen.
Today on the pod we have the colourful and unapologetic Ottawa blogger Tori of Doll & Dye. If you are from Ottawa you probably already follow her or have seen her gorgeous pink hair online or in person. Now is your chance to hear all about how she created her wonderful blog and brand. We chat all about how it was for her to grow up with anxiety to how her blog became her self care. Oh, and of course we chat for possibly way too long about Tori's fav snack- donuts. Get into in.

We chat about how she learned to slow down, to moving across the world at the start of the pandemic, and how in all situations she finds joy.

Hello, lovelies welcome back to another episode! This week is a 'real talk' episode which means it just Erin and Jamie. This episode was actually one of the first-ever episodes we EVER recorded so if we sound a little nervous it's because we were. Also, it was before we added recommendations to the end of the episode so don't be too sad there isn't that segment this week. We chat all about how our photography business Hello lovely came to be. That includes how we met, separate photography businesses/ jobs before HL, and the struggles and challenges we have faced as a partnership. 

In this episode of Hello Lovely the podcast we are chatting with Ottawa royalty. The CEO and one-woman show behind the badass brand and boutique shop of BBXCO is here. Megan chats about how she started out, the struggles of owning a small business, and how she always looks for the good, within a pandemic and in her community.  Lots of goodness in this one!

We are back baby. This week we have Tash Cloutier, the Lead filmmaker, and CEO of Dear Darling films. An all-women team of wedding videographers based in Ottawa. (We think that is so rad!!) Where storytelling is at the heart of what they do. And we can confirm that all her wedding videos are gorgeous and timeless and will make you cry like a baby. We chat about switching careers, being your own role model, and Tash's new educational content for videographers. 

BONUS EPISODE! Surprise we wanted to give you all a little present for the holidays. In this episode, it's just Erin and Jamie and they chat about everything from shaving your legs to learning about systematic racism.  Tune in for some 2020 lessons they learned. 

In this episode, we chat with self-proclaimed 'worried optimist' Jessie Lee Wallace! Jessie-Lee is passionate about using the latest in research, technology, community building, and philanthropy to help make Ottawa a more compassionate place for everyone, especially for women, families, and children. When we chatted with her during this episode she was working as the Sr. Resource Development Manager for Cornerstone Housing for Women (a local Ottawa's Women's Shelter.) We chat about their struggles during covid, how they are doing now, and how you can help. Jessie-lee was very insightful, honest, and open and gave us some fantastic recommendations throughout! We are so excited for you to learn from her in the pod today. Enjoy!

Looking for a little adventure in your life? We know you are craving a plane ride to a sandy beach or needing a mountain view. But since we can't do that at the moment (Sorry to burst your bubble.) Little Miss Ottawa has you covered on the best places and things to do in your own backyard. From the best-hidden gems for nature walks to killer local eats. Today we sit down with Julia who is a blogger and influencer with a passion for all things Ottawa!

In this episode, we chat with the wonderful Desirae Odjick! You probably know her from her former amazing millennial blog/ website called "Half Banked.' Where she gave advice catered to that age group. She talks about how and why she created that website and how it became a full on side business only two years later. Then we chat about how she knew it was time to sell! This is a great episode if you are a business owner or have a side hustle because she brings so much knowledge about that world in this conversation, and we chat about the part of business no one seems to chat about...when to let go. 

In this episode of Real Talks the lovelies (Erin & Jamie) interview each other! Time to get to know the hosts behind the podcast a little better. They chat everything from the perks of owning your own business to which Hilary Duff song is the best. It's a fun one!
