A little note from the author…

🎧 Making a podcast is a wonderful thing, but it is very labour intensive and I do everything myself. This includes finding guests, writing questions, recording the conversation (sometimes with someone in a completely different time zone), editing, mixing, creating music and producing the episode itself.

I had the great pleasure of interviewing florist Amy Carlile for this episode of Inspiring Creative Career Change. Amy studied maths and finance at university and went on to become an actuary before realising that it wasn’t right for her. She now has her own floristry business, specialising in wedding flowers. I chat to her about how she made the leap and the challenges she faced along the way.

Amy is based in Surrey, UK and you can see her work here:

After much talk, it’s here! The Chez Hanny podcast which seeks to inspire creative career change through sharing stories of women who have taken a risk and followed their calling.

I’m coinciding the launch of my podcast with International Podcast Day!

In today’s episode, I kick off the series by sharing my own story of how I left my teaching job to become an interior designer. I’ve also written about it which you can read by following the links at the bottom of the page, but this audio version is 30 minutes of thoughts and reflections on my journey so far.

I really hope you enjoy listening and I’d love to have some feedback so please do leave a comment.

The next episode will feature an interview with Amy Carlile, who started her career as an actuary before leaving her job to set up a business as a florist. It’s a great story and it’s coming very soon!

Happy listening!
