First and foremost Gareth is a foster carer to three children.
Whilst he’s busy mentoring them, a business coach is helping him find his way. Creating a freelance business that can flex to fit around the demands of the home first.
Gareth has a lot of experience in building companies - he speaks about the importance of separating the pressures of work from your personal life. Yet here is a story where one really has created the freedom for the other.
He also proves that putting your face and story to your business (even somewhat reluctantly) can have a great effect. People know you. Understand you. Warm to you. Trust you. (Work with you).
