Ep 023: Chasing Joy And Evolving In Your Career with Hermione Olivia

The Kiki Kirby Podcast

Say hello to Hermione Underwood on the show today. A founder, serial entrepreneur, recovering workaholic and newly appointed CEO of J.S.Vitamins in the UK and Europe.

Starting off with LVMH in Australia, Hermione went on to start her own PR agency The H Collective. But that wasn’t enough. This experience and network enabled her to co-found jewellery brand, a leather goods brand and a wine brand in fairly quick succession. Now she heads up J.S.Vitamins over here with a clear sense of purpose: to make J.S.Health a household name in the UK and Europe, just as it is in Australia.

One of the things I love about Hermione is that, despite her optimism, determination and candour, there are serious challenges that she’s had to work hard to overcome. Layers, that the deeper you go, the more you uncover. Like facing burnout, recovering from long Covid, creating boundaries with balance, and more recently, becoming a step-mum, getting pregnant and getting married.

In this episode, we talk about trying to find the right balance between driving ambition and personal health, her role as CEO of J.S.Vitamins in the UK and how she’s going to overcome her next adventure - motherhood.
