From Cleaner to CEO: Tommie Edwards Breaks Barriers


Listen Later

This week's episode is a masterclass in authenticity. We dive deep into the life of Tommie Edwards, a self-proclaimed introvert who transformed from managing a family business at 16 to becoming a venture-backed CEO of Tech1M but her story isn't just about business—it's about finding joy in life's simple moments while building something extraordinary.

🌟 Highlights You Can't Miss:

  • Building a 7 figure logistics empire from feeding her curiosity.
  • Losing £400K overnight and turning that setback into a comeback
  • Managing a business at 16 while her peers were just starting to dream
  • The extraordinary story of using modelling money to fund her UK dreams
  • Understanding the crucial difference between "vitamin" and "painkiller" businesses
  • Finding harmony between building tech empires and binge-watching Selling Sunset

 

🔥 Quotable Moment: "Pressure is a privilege. I'm excited to have this pressure, but every single day I have to wake up knowing that I'm carrying this."
