Hey mates,

Thanks for stopping by! We're Belle and Liz, two marketing professionals who are passionate about personal growth and sharing our knowledge with the wider marketing community.
‍
Early in our careers, we both struggled to find mentors. Someone to help us answer those challenging career, skill, and general life questions. Hence, the Your Marketing Mates podcast was born.
