👉 Listen to Sky News Daily on your podcast app 👈 The Wargame was designed to test the state of the UK's defences and national resilience after decades of cuts to military spending following the end of the Cold War.

In today's episode, Sky's international affairs editor Dominic Waghorn talks to security and defence editor Deborah Haynes, who created and wrote The Wargame, about why she thought it was so important to make the podcast - and to former defence secretary Sir Ben Wallace, who plays the prime minister.

"I was burnt out, I was exhausted, I just knew that something needed to change", she revealed in a TikTok video. Olivia explained that to learn how to become a digital marketer, she paid for a course called Self Made Global Business Academy, which taught her everything she needed to know. "I genuinely owe most of my success to this exact course", she said. The savvy side hustler said that digital marketing involves selling digital products, such as guides, planners and courses. She said that she was given products to use when she started the course, and edited them and re-branded them. The TikToker claimed she now sells these products on for 100% profit. Olivia said that she made back the money she spent on the course on just day six. "I'm now a five figure business owner and I live every single day on my own terms", she said. I quit my 9 to 5 while still in debt - within days my 'exotic' side hustle brought in my old $70k salary in a month "I am honestly so grateful that I decided to actually take the leap." Olivia said that she was hesitant about starting digital marketing, but now wishes she'd started it sooner. She is now offering advice to others keen to start their own digital marketing journey. In a second video, the TikToker revealed that she was even able to make £6000 in just a 12 hour period.
