Love Laura Podcast

This week, Laura & Holly are answering MORE of your questions - and absolutely nothing is off limits! 👀 Could Laura have ADHD?! Will there ever be a Love Laura jewellery collection? What actually happens when you book a personal shopping experience at Walk In Wardrobe, and what should you wear when you’re teaching? Holly shares her YouTube favourites, the girls reveal business decisions that have genuinely shocked them, and somehow we get onto the time Laura & Holly found themselves at Oprah Winfrey! 😂 They also chat winter coats, supplier problems, whether they’ll ever launch more occasion wear, Holly responding to hate on the Walk In Wardrobe Instagram, and the reality of working together, running a business together AND staying friends. Plus, how do they make it all work when they’re both so busy? The answer might simply be… staying in your own lane! And finally, it’s time for their favourite autumn pieces for September. 🍂🤎 Grab a coffee and get comfy - this one is a proper catch-up!

This week, Laura and Holly are joined by Gemma Murphy from Jack Murphy Jewellers for a brilliant chat about family, business, jewellery and everything in between! Gemma gives us the inside story of Jack Murphy Jewellers, from her dad being in the jewellery trade for nearly 80 years and the family business celebrating 55 years, to becoming the youngest of four and eventually taking the business on herself. We chat about the challenges of taking over during the recession, Gemma’s original plan to sell the business once things recovered, and how she ended up completely falling in love with it instead. From influencer marketing and changing jewellery trends to the complexity of gold prices, welded bracelets and the huge plans ahead for Jack Murphy Jewellers, there is so much to get into. Gemma also opens up about life outside of work, moving house, her daughter and the incredible support she has from her husband Cathal, her family and friends. Plus, we hear all about the infamous Jack Murphy Traitors event, quick-fire questions and Gemma’s favourite mindset: losers focus on winners, winners focus on winning. Follow Jack Murphy Jewellers on socials and, as Gemma says… watch this space! ✨
