In this episode of the Chester Centurions Podcast, Alan sits down with Monique, a powerhouse entrepreneur from North Wales who swapped a secure salary for the uncertain road of business ownership — with a mortgage, three kids, and zero safety net.

She shares:

• Why she walked out of her job overnight
• The emotional rollercoaster of starting a recruitment agency from scratch
• How she balances being a mum, a business owner, and a university student
• The myths people believe about self-employment
• Why feedback, mentors, and gym sessions are her secret weapons
• Her plans to scale the business across Wales and into the Northwest

This is a must-listen for anyone contemplating the leap into entrepreneurship — or already in the deep end wondering if they’re doing it right.
