Comment ‘google it’ & I’ll dm you the link to the episode!
Let me be firm with you quickly, if you have a corporate job, you have to listen to this episode
Debbie Weinstein is the Managing Director at Google UK. She’s risen through the ranks at the world’s biggest companies, like YouTube and Unilever to get to the top spot. And in this episode she tells me exactly how she did it.
We spoke about...
- How to manage a team and get yourself promoted
- Failing in business & why entrepreneurship wasn’t for her
- Why AI isn’t our competition, other people are
- How to use AI to make yourself more productive day-to-day
Thank you Debbie for sharing your truckload of wisdom in the hour we had together.
your phone isn’t safe just because you’re in a cute fancy cafe.
apply for mentorships early. month three in london, i had a mentor from google uk. the girls who start early win.
you’re overpaying if you don’t use student discounts. (apps are unidays & student beans)
mini golf/golf is such a cute weekend plan here. usually £15–£20 and it’s perfect for a girly night or casual date (greenwich peninsula driving range, swingers or junkyard golf club).
don’t forget to pack summer clothes for september & october. because you’ll need them.
check the commute before signing that accommodation contract.
don’t limit yourself to people from your country.
london coffee might taste stronger than what you’re used to. i packed coffee from home at first.
open a uk bank account immediately for refunds and renting.
join societies for your cv and your circle.
if you want cute but affordable stationery, go to sostrene green or flying tiger.
save this before you move.

Are you ready to move from AI dabbling to doing? 🚀
I sat down with Kate Alessi the Vice President of Google and Managing Director of Google UK and Ireland, to discuss AI Works for Britain. This new initiative is designed to upskill people across the UK, moving them from basic prompting to advanced, complex problem-solving.
While 65% of Brits use AI regularly, only 1 in 10 consider themselves advanced users. To bridge this gap, Google is launching:
• “Squeeze the Juice” Bars: Pop-up learning hubs in major cities like Birmingham, Leeds, and Liverpool, as well as AI growth zones.
• Hands-on Training: Focused on helping users get the absolute most out of AI tools.
Check out the video to learn how you can start “squeezing the juice” out of AI! 🍋✨

BEST UK VISA PATHWAYS:

BIGGEST HACK: Referrals get you past HR filters.
Most UK sponsorship jobs never get publicly listed - they’re filled through employee networks.

I reveal proven strategies in “The Sponsored Leap,” including UK-specific scripts, visa loopholes, and employer lists.

Last month, we had the pleasure of catching up with GS1 UK member Zoe Chapman, founder of @Whizzer_world, to hear her top tips for entrepreneurs. Zoe shared invaluable advice on how to bounce back from setbacks and find resilience, even in the toughest times.
We’re excited to reconnect with Zoe at Small Business Sunday next week, where she’ll be part of the Google UK panel on upskilling for the future of your business. We can’t wait to hear more about her journey, the tools that have fuelled Whizzer’s growth, and how she's diversified her business strategy.
