… and Mary Portas provides a jar full of it. As a business owner, podcaster and mentor to other businesses in the world of conscious needle crafts and making, I get so much from this podcast. But it goes deeper, I connect with to Mary and her guests on a personal level in so many ways. Kindred...Read full review »

Love Mary and love that she interviewed Trinny asking great questions and not being scared to do so, like others who have had her on their podcasts, seem to have done. Well done Mary- off down a rabbit hole of all your others as I didn’t know you had a pod until today! Congratulations!

I loved Work Like a Woman and The Kindness Economy podcasts and Beautiful Misfits is a wonderful addition. Really liked the Lemn Sissay, Julian Metcalfe and Jane Shepherdson episodes. The latter two especially since I’ve started working in retail. I could listen to Mary Portas talking all day long.

Adore Mary and love this premise but PLEASE stop talking over guests Mary…it makes for an irritating listening!! Allow them to fully speak and express themselves. It often doesn’t sound like a conversation!

I love the Mary Portas podcasts, but the Jane Sheperdson one was great. As a retail buyer, ex Bhs (at the time Topshop was bought by PG I was a lowly Assistant Buyer there) I knew the culture she spoke of, the (embarrassingly!) fear, sexism, creepy bosses but also the fun we all had. He really...Read full review »

I am besotted with this podcast and Mary Portas in general. People, profit, planet, Couldn’t agree more. Every episode has so many gems of wisdom and particularly love Mary’s personal stories, she has had so much valuable experience and wish everyone thought like this. Thank you Mary

For a show supposedly about kindness they really missed the mark with this one

I’m having withdrawal problems. It’s been over a month since the last podcast. Please can you do more Mary. I binged two years worth in a couple of weeks. This cold turkey business is hard…
Ishbel via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/30/21
I thoroughly enjoy the topic covered on this podcast. It encourages me to keep the hope that alternative business models that center kindness can thrive. I hope to some day work for or create such an organization

Why is the Brewdog podcast still being aired when he has been confirmed to be a bully and his business is being run in an intimidating fashion . He is getting good publicity when he shouldn’t be. The whole podcast is about doing business differently and he’s absolutely isn’t. I’m really...Read full review »

Never not taking notes, it been lovely to listen to this podcast when in need for inspiration and practical tips
trampaulime via Apple Podcasts · Netherlands · 07/01/21
I tuned in to this podcast to hear Mary talk to Amanda Levete. Did so during my daily darning. Kept me well engaged and then listened to the podcast about Donut Economics. Will keep listening for new approach to problem solving

I have loved every single episode and you need to do more! Little ways that open our eyes to the inequality but also the way the world needs to change!

After listening to Bevis Watts - I switched my account! I have been with one of the major banks for many years. Bevis was so passionate in his beliefs, making us think differently about banks and how they invest and align their values.. love the podcast- thank you

Have admired Mary for a long time as someone who understands (particularly retail) business, and the flaws which those foundations have been built on. This podcast is a great listen, and while many of the businesses featured have made mistakes, that’s all part of the kindness Mary is promoting.
ThomFielding via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/14/21
Listening to the kindness economy whilst sewing for my small sole trader business , interesting to listen to entrepreneurs , business owners and really love Mary’ s positivity , philosophy and approach to business . As a very small craft business , the balance of the love of making and covering...Read full review »

I like the idea of the kindness economy podcast but the first episode had no criticism whatsoever. These companies aren’t perfect; Brewdog has had damning reviews from staff and have exploited marketing job applicants, taking their ideas without payment or employment. Lush have given money to an...Read full review »

Such a brilliant Podcast full of pragmatic wisdom, funny and enlightening. And such a fantastic range of guests. I keep going back to each episode to listen to it again. Brilliant! Thank you Mary and Emily.
ElizaAdaG via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/14/20
I love podcast recommendations. This one popped up and it’s a winner. I’ve been preaching the ‘mindful and conscious business’ message in my business for 15 years but have felt like a lone voice at times. Its a tough message to spread. It’s so good to see this way of working being given more...Read full review »

Absolutely love this show! In some ways it reminds me of The Unwritten Rules of Women’s Leadership by Helen Appleby

Mary, team & guests, Everything my gut knew was wrong with my working life but wasn’t able to articulate enough, you have articulated. Your S1 podcasts along with some other equally inspiring podcasts were the catalyst for me leaving my job of 14 years and starting my own business. I believe...Read full review »

At the age of 50 I lost my business and long time career in the fashion industry. I have since then been unable to climb back on the ladder or to get a job. I’d like to hear a podcast about women trying to get jobs in their 50s and how they would go about even getting an interview? It’s not...Read full review »

One of my favorite things in life is listening to this podcast. So crammed with info that it takes a second listen to upload it all to the brain. Many things are versions of advice I give to others but it’s much better and I’m learning and loving it all. I frankly want Mary to be my best mate but...Read full review »

Mary articulates patterns of behaviour that perhaps have slipped through generations of women unquestioned, but have often been felt like a nagging pain at the back of the head. I love this podcast and feel it will help me very much in the future, I only wish it had been around when I was younger...Read full review »

I’m a huge fan of this podcast series - great format, intelligent and thought-provoking discussions - not just a series for women!

I love Mary’s podcast, she is very skilled at getting interesting opinions and comments out of her guests.

Mary talks so much sense and cannot wait for series 2

I’m so happy I found this podcast! Wow I’ve always loved Mary on tv but I feel like this podcast is Mary at her truly authentic self. It feels like you’ve dropped by her home and have been invited in to the most interesting conversations. With humour and with the most wonderful guests Mary talks...Read full review »

Every episode makes me feel powerful, smart, accomplished, and truly seeing how I can advocate for myself without burning workplace capital. I feel heard and seen. Thank you Mary!
ChicagolovesMary via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/01/19
Already a fan, admittedly but I can’t get enough of Mary. She’s brilliant! Living her true, authentic life and sharing her passions with us all in the most eloquent and articulate way. Bring on series 2 🤞🏻

Great podcast, love Mary’s take on life and work. I could listen to her all day.. looking forward to more

Love Mary Portas. Her ethos, humour, attitude and pzazz. Brilliant podcast 👍
oxtedbird via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/30/19
This is stuff we all know, or mostly know - but is buried far down the list as we are all too busy being alpha. Not any more! This podcast has helped me keep a focus on what’s important, and I’m working through it for myself and with my team. Thanks Mary - long may this podcast be my Monday treat.

Sassy, classy, witty and honest.
andyhall.tv via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/26/19
I like this podcast but I think they are ill-equipped with the knowledge to correctly discuss some of the topics introduced. Particularly when related to LGBT issues.
Slapleton via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/25/19
Totally addictive! I am throughly enjoying this podcast! You inspire and empower women! Thank you!
busybusygirlie via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/24/19
Always really liked Mary Portas and was looking forward to listening to this podcast and it did not disappoint at all 👍🏻 A new wave of Kindness - Woman power and I’ve just ordered the Work LAW book - love this acronym 😂
MillyMolls13 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/20/19
Brilliant listening which I look forward to weekly. So much sense is spoken about being a woman who works whilst raising a family and not only being an inspiration to herself but her kids to.. and if I’m feeling blue listening to Mary’s funny stories and words of wisdom gets me flying high again..!
micagrace via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/20/19
I’ve just finished listening to your Campaigning episode and it was so inspirational in many ways (I look forward to reading your book and Caroline’s book- once I have purchased them!) It also made me laugh and relate wholly to your references of being a woman, a parent and striving to include a...Read full review »
