I met some brilliant people doing #TrustSummit in 2020 but my conversations with @KHaysdeMuga & @wholewheatgirl were particular highlights. A few weeks ago I got another chance to chat to them on their @FundingHayDay Podcast Episode here: podbean.com/ew/pb-in5ai-11f7…

SELF-INDULGENT THREAD ALERT! Today marks 5 years of launching @Apollo_FR_ and being completely self-employed. It's a route I always said I'd never go down but I'm so pleased I did. The variety of work and flexibility to spend more time with my family has been brilliant 1/3
