Do you truly know what your role is in life?
There are so many hats to be worn as a founder, that your key responsibilities can often become muddied in the everyday running of a business. However, this week, Holly is here to share what your ultimate priority should be as an entrepreneur, and why you should never ever lose sight of this.
Holly re-evaluated the whole concept of being a business owner when she met with Wilfred Emmanuel-Jones MBE, politician and founder of The Black Farmer, who achieved his lifelong goal of owning a farm through challenging the status quo and keeping an ultra clear vision of what he needed to do, to drive towards his dream.
