I’m back with a fresh sound for the podcast.  This season we are going to hear the stories of small business owners & entrepreneurs, not just what they do, but why they do it. 

Everyone has their story to tell, what twists and turns on this crazy rollercoaster we call life, that led them to the path there on now. These experiences shape us, and the unique talents & experiences that  we can offer the world. Join me as I delve further into the world of small businesses and discover the talent, passion, resilience and determination that often sits behind a successful small business. 

First up - ME!  I wanted you to know more about me, why I started my business and podcast and my love of running a small business.  Ultimately, though, in this episode, I  share a really personal life changing experience that hit my family last September.  It is a raw, honest chat with my producer BUT that is what this series will be about.  Real life and how it can impact on everything you we’re doing at that moment and where it then guides you.  

If you have a real life ‘sliding doors’ moment that affected you and the way you run your business I would love to hear from you.
