Yesterday’s guest on my radio show was Ceri Wheeldon, the fast and fabulous creator of FabAfterFifty, champion for women after fifty years of age.
Ceri has been self-employed for twenty years already, initially in partnership at the sharp end in headhunting in the Nineties, dealing mainly with men. Now she’s loving meeting lots of wonderful women. [...]
Did you catch my radio show at 9 GMT today? If not, you can listen again to Mary Waring, UK mortgage adviser, buy-to-let landlady and property expert, IFA in training. Is there no end to this woman’s talents?
Listen to Mary as she describes why corporate life wasn’t for her and what caused her to finally [...]
Today, the guest on my Radio Show was Yvonne Halling, beloved client and co-conspirator in the Entrepreneurial game of life. It only takes 15 minutes to be inspired by Today’s Entrepreneur.
You can listen here to Yvonne as she talks about why this business at this time, and why she and champagne expert husband Jiles are moving [...]
If you work for yourself and there’s only you, as is the case with the majority of self-employed people, then you are both the finest asset( and worst liability) of your own business. The only asset. So it follows that without you, there is no business and its also highly likely that your income would [...]

Flexibility is a recurring theme, but [...]

Which bits do you love and why? Which bits do you hate and why? And how can you move to doing more of the former and less of the latter?
Depending on where you [...]
Do you have a business or a business idea worth getting up early for?
Today I began a new regime of rising at 6 a.m. to begin to take chunks out of a project I am passionate about. In winter I like to lie abed until 8 a.m. and begin work at 9 but I realised [...]
I was recently lucky enough to come into contact with PR and publicist, Sue Blake. I already knew of Sue and her work with my former client Suzanne Doyle-Morris on the launch of her book Beyond The Boys Club and had recommended Sue to another writer colleague of mine.
Sue hired coach and colleague Marion Ryan of [...]
Last week I had lunch with Neil Asher. Neil is a self-made, international multi-millionaire with seven businesses in five countries. He looks like David Bowie and he looks considerably younger than me, so he must be doing something right.
Neil and I had never met before but we had enjoyed a few phone calls towards the [...]
Today I had breakfast with two proto millionaires who shall remain nameless. Suffice to say they are restaurateurs who each have a fabulous name in the UK restaurant business for opening other people’s restaurants and getting them right, and or putting them right when things go wrong. A bit like Gordon Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares, but [...]
