In this episode, Naomi Raybould - founder and creative director of clothing brand Beyond Nine - shares her journey from facing thyroid cancer to overcoming personal tragedy and navigating a successful career pivot to create a million-pound clothing brand designed to empower women at all stages of life. Naomi and I discuss how switching roles at home has impacted her and her family, plus we dive into the external perceptions of that, plus the challenges of balancing a fast-growing business with cash-flow demands, and the power of resilience and adaptability in entrepreneurship. We're talking breaking societal norms, valuing empathy in leadership, and the power in knowing you can change your mind. So much is covered in this episode - hope you love it.
