Enterprise Nation: The 99% Club – The Small Business Podcast episodes
- Episode 1: Books, Burdens and a Motivational Goose: The Bookshelf Ltd’s Ameesha Green on the Truth Behind Entrepreneurship
What do a goose, AI-written books, and Windrush memoirs have in common?
They all feature in this inspiring and brutally honest chat with publisher and The Bookshelf Ltd founder, Ameesha Green.
In Episode 1 of The 99% Club – The Small Business Podcast, Enterprise Nation CEO Aaron Asadi sits down with Ameesha to explore the untold realities of running a small business. Together, they cover:
– Why AI is no substitute for human storytelling
– How publishing can empower people to share their legacy
– The mental health cost of entrepreneurship
– Why neurodivergent founders are underserved but essential
– The power of community (and cuddly mascots)
Ameesha also shares the story of Vanessa, a Windrush survivor whose memoir, Sheep, Sheep Come Home, became a university textbook – and an emotional legacy for generations to come.
This is not another business podcast full of hacks and jargon. It’s the stuff that actually matters.
