"You don't need anyone else to believe in you... other than you."
This episode's guest entrepreneur is Suz: Mum, former accountant, bodybuilder - and founder of The Proper Oats Company.
Suz shares her experience of starting a business amid a global pandemic, in her words "launching an on-the go product when the world wasn't going anywhere!" There's the importance of finance, networking and social media - even having an exit strategy despite being a young business. But it's as much about personal conviction, and what Suz does to maintain self belief whilst following the lonely path of a sole founder.
It's a very real-world tale that sums up the ethos of Founded & Grounded, with great advice for others in the early stages of their business journey.
Presented by Ollie Collard and Andrew Parsonage.
