BEST MOMENTS

"I think the important thing is, is having someone who can support you, not just on good days, in bad days."

"I think it's really important to notice that each and every one has transferable skills. You've just got to pick it out and actually write it down."

"I've got to be so aware for me mentally. It's just some people are more susceptible to it than others, and I get that."

"Transferable skills are the most underrated thing. That is the most important thing."



This is the perfect time to get focused on what YOU want to really achieve in your business, career, and life. It’s never too late to be BRAVE and BOLD and unlock your inner BRILLIANCE.

ABOUT THE GUESTS

Amy Price, an award-winning director of Social Butterfly Marketing and The Business Hub Wales, embodies the spirit of modern entrepreneurship. A true self-starter, Amy's journey in business, unshaped by traditional academic paths, is marked by notable awards such as the Rising Star Women in Business Award 2019 and the Young Entrepreneur of the Year Award 2018/19.

Her achievements transcend individual success, as she passionately gives back by encouraging entrepreneurship among young people, especially those without a business background. This commitment to community upliftment complements her innovative approach to business, breaking norms and setting new standards.

Entering her 7th year in business, Amy's resolve remains unshaken. With the guidance of the Prince's Trust, Big Ideas Wales, and NatWest Accelerator Programme, she has overcome her limiting beliefs to redefine success on her terms. Her future is bright and ambitious, with personal plans to return to academia for a Master's in Business and a Doctorate, researching barriers to entrepreneurship.

Amy's ethos, 'Fail terribly, laugh loudly, and always remember you may be small but you are also mighty' is a testament to her resilient spirit and visionary leadership, inspiring a new wave of entrepreneurs to pursue their dreams with courage and authenticity.

Gemma Casey is part of NatWest Cymru’s enterprise team, leading on strategic partnerships for SME support across Wales.

She is an experienced journalist, working in local newspapers, for a national news agency and in BBC radio and television before joining the bank’s press office, where she led on communications across Wales and the South West.

Gemma is also part of NatWest Cymru Regional Board, helping to develop and drive the bank’s priorities to support families, businesses and communities across Wales.

Gemma is passionate about championing and supporting small businesses, having grown up in a family which ran a third-generation business in the South Wales Valleys.

Gemma believes that success in business comes from having great relationships, strong networks and first-class communication. She works hard to connect people to those that might never have otherwise met, or even imagined could be a significant link for them.

She lives in Cardiff with her husband and young son, and juggles family life and the ‘day job’ with a side hustle as a communications specialist and copywriter.
