Zainab Khan - Badass.Gal - #badassgal

#XXX Zainab Khan

I believe my friend Zainab is not only a bad ass due to her no bullshit personality but also because of where she is in life despite the difficult upbringing she had. She has always been the hustler in our friend group, striving to get financially independant as soon as possible, fighting to be able to achieve higher studies, fighting family pressure in order to marry the person she loved and all while building a successful digital personal brand and business.

Feed Me Female - Chloe O'Connell & Hope Flynn - Badass.Gal - #BadassGal

#590 Chloe O'Connell & Hope Flynn

Feed Me Female is the platform created by cousins Chloe and Hope who are on a mission to create unfiltered, entertaining and informative content around real topics that matter to women. They found that so much info was missing online for questions they had about life, work, relationships, health and more, so they created a page to discuss these topics and open them up to their community too.

Now they have an audience of over 10K and hold weekly debates with their community, covering all the real life sh*t you have to deal with as a woman in a relatable, humorous way. Their regular segment 'Fuck Off Fridays' is my favourite - a chance for their community to denounce anyone, thing, situation or behaviour that no longer serves you. Reading through these every Friday makes me feel like we're together in this thing called life.

They create everything you see on their page, from graphics to videos and are always looking to uplift and celebrate other women. Do give them a follow - they are amazing :)

I nominated myself as a Badass girl because I put all my energy on a daily basis to live from my passion, art and conceptual design, and influence through that in a positive way people living and social change! Because I am not afraid of going for it and believe in each and everyone powers to make change and make it gracefully but furmly.

Zoe Mallett - #BadassGal - Badass.Gal

#587 Zoe Mallett

Zoe is amazing! She is an ICF accredited coach and podcast host, who helps some of London’s most pioneering female creatives, founders and business owners excel in their space by arming them with fundamental self-development techniques to help them reach their full potential - including some of the wonderful women on the Badass Gal site.

Zoe's mission is to fill the world with people knowing and loving themselves. She works to make coaching accessible for everyone and gives a large portion of time to creating initiatives that support this - including monthly collaborations with Woman to Woman, and Note to Self. She has also set up a coaching scheme called Coach Hood for young people that wouldn't usually have access to this kind of service.

Because her work never stops (!), she's recently been announced as a radio resident on Foundation FM Cut. Her show 'Cut the Bullsh*t' Zoe brings her vibrant and relatable no-nonsense approach to the female-fronted radio station, tackling her followers’ life issues, covering career goals and confidence blockers to toxic friendships, finding love and managing difficult family relationships.

Zoe is one of the great ones behind the scenes and it's about time she was recognised too!

#584 Josie Hicks

Graduating at the start of a pandemic is more than unfortunate timing, but Josie didn't let this phase her. She hussled her way up from an English Degree at the University of Birmingham to landing her first job as a Creative Copywriter less than a year later. I have never met someone with such drive and determination, she's also been nominated for a Drum Chip Shop award for her campaign about disposable masks which I think is pretty badass. I can't wait to see where her career takes her!

Amy Fasey - badass.gal - #badassgal

#583 Amy Fasey

Amy is one of the most talented and hardworking creatives in the industry. She writes, designs, edits, films, illustrates, and most importantly, gives a shit about the world. She’s a founding member of Pablo London’s D&I committee, along with being the agency’s head of placement.

She’s committed to doing work that makes a difference (along with being really good), she created a campaign for the Vagina Museum that raised nearly £20,000 to help the museum stay open during covid, with £0 budget. She made one of the most successful campaigns for Red Nose Day ever, raising over £52,000,000. And her campaign for organ donation for the NHS has led to a 52% increase in people talking about organ donation.

On top of all of this, she’s a bloody good person who treats the people around her with kindness and respect. Go Amy!
