Penny Power OBE, the woman responsible for Ecademy, shares her story. The first social network for business people, with 650,000 members, Ecademy sadly closed its doors in 2012. Penny now focuses on helping other business owners achieve their dream. In this episode, Penny and I touch on everything from the "Instagram lifestyle" and marketing to mental health in business. A very real, down-to-earth episode, with key points that sometimes - we all need a reminder of.
