39 min - Jess Butler, Vanity Fair Beauty and SchoolIn this week’s episode of The Big Chat, Nicole speaks to Jess from Vanity Fair Beauty & School. Jess is our first guest to make a return a year on! This time last year, we were just about to head into yet another lockdown and Jess reflects on what this looked like for her. Jess speaks about overcoming a multitude of problems and how she used the time in lockdown to her advantage and put all of her energy into positive growth. This has meant that after 12 years of running Vanity Fair, she has upscaled by changing premises and increasing the size of the space available. This has enabled Jess to offer more beauty courses which in turn feeds her passion for helping others start their own businesses. So sit back, relax, and get inspired!
