Episode 180: Liz Allan and Lulu O' Hagan - Making EVs Simple Through Community, Confidence and Real Experience.

Liz Allan is joined by Lulu O'Hagan, founder of EVs Made Easy and the Ham EV Group in London, for an open and engaging conversation about what it really takes to help people feel confident about switching to electric vehicles.

Lulu shares her fascinating journey from film and TV production into EV advocacy, driven by lived experience rather than industry jargon. She talks candidly about becoming one of the first EV drivers in her local area, navigating charging without a driveway, and why community support has been essential in helping more people make the transition.

The conversation explores the most persistent myths about electric vehicles, from batteries and range to charging costs, and why real-world experience often outweighs technical explanations. Liz and Lulu also discuss the role of collaboration in improving the EV driver experience, particularly for those living in flats or urban areas, and how small, local actions can have a meaningful impact.

Alongside her EV work, Lulu brings insight from the film and television industry, noting that sustainability is increasingly influencing production decisions, including the use of electric vehicles on set and the growing importance of the Green Rider.

This episode is an honest look at how making EVs simpler, more social and accessible can help build confidence, trust and momentum in the journey towards net zero.

Episode 179: Liz Allan and Rebecca Denyer - Reimagining Electric Vehicles with Purpose, Craft and Courage.

Liz Allan is joined by Rebecca Denyer, Co-Founder of Sebring, for a deeply honest and inspiring conversation about leadership, resilience and rethinking how electric vehicles are designed and built.

Together, Liz and Rebecca explore what it really means to innovate responsibly, from questioning supply chains and regulations to advocating for plant-based materials and refurbished components wherever possible.

This episode goes beyond technology. It is about values, collaboration and the emotional reality of building a purpose-led business. Rebecca speaks candidly about the pressures of leadership, working alongside her husband, staying true to doing the right thing and why collaboration, not competition, is essential if the sector is going to move forward.

Episode 178: Liz Allan and Gill Nowell - Global Women in EV Day and the Future of Inclusive Electric Mobility.

Liz Allan is joined by Gill Nowell, founder of Global Women in EV Day and a long-standing advocate for inclusion, equity, and progress within electric mobility.

Gill shares the story behind the creation of Global Women in EV Day, an international movement dedicated to celebrating, elevating, and accelerating the women driving the transition to electric mobility.

From its meaningful date of 10th February, chosen in honour of pioneering electrical engineer Edith Clarke, to the overwhelming global support from organisations and individuals across the EV sector, Liz and Gill explore why visibility, action, and accountability matter now more than ever.

Together, they also discuss the realities women still face in the EV and energy sectors, including underrepresentation in leadership roles, missed development opportunities, and workplace cultures that need to evolve. They also explore the importance of male allies, neurodiversity, flexible working, and why the EV sector has a unique opportunity to build equity into its foundations as it continues to grow.

From mentoring and pledges to inspiring the next generation through schools, career events, and role models, the conversation is hopeful and practical about creating lasting change.
