The Truth Behind The Apprentice: Would She Give Lord Sugar a Seat at the Table?
14 April 2025Podcast Summary
🎙️ In this episode of the We Are PoWEr Podcast, we’re joined by Foluso Falade — last years candidate on The Apprentice UK and founder/CEO of Brandin’ It, the first-ever social enterprise to feature on the show.
Foluso shares the story behind her pioneering organisation, which helps young people across the UK create and launch their own brands — a mission that’s rapidly building a platform set to reach 9 million teens.
She opens up about the challenges and triumphs of her time on The Apprentice — from being cut off from friends and family, to competing in a high-pressure environment with people she was up against. Throughout it all, she developed incredible resilience and proved the power of staying authentic under pressure.
Foluso also reflects on her early curiosity — including how she built a robot as a child, and why she’s always been passionate about challenging stereotypes and doing things differently.
Winner of the "One To Watch" award at the 2025 Northern Power Women Awards, Foluso gives an inspiring insight as to why this category meant the most to her.
And if she had a few seats at the table to invite anyone she liked… would Lord Sugar get one? You’ll have to tune in to find out.
