There’s no doubting that the experience of building your own business changes you, but there are some businesses that really are built to change the world too. The business you’re about to hear the journey of is one of them.

Melissa Reader is building Violet, a company that is transforming the last stage of life by enabling us all to be a little better prepared for the experience of it.

This conversation is in two parts for you so you can hear it all, as it’s so powerful, in a time that suits you (‘cause I get it, you’re building a business and you’re busy!). They’re both available for you on the feed now so, there’s no waiting in-between.

·        In the first part of the conversation, you’ll hear about:  

·        Pivoting from one business to another

·        The pressures of creating a new concept and product

·        The experience of raising capital

·        Approaches to risk

·        Finding meaning in business

·        And the signals to look out for

A business podcast for the brave self-employed.

Growing your own business can be one of the most gratifying, wonderful, life-changing experiences around. It’s also scary as hell. This is a weekly podcast for the ones who have made the brave decision to employ themselves anyway.

We're for the full gamut of business experience - from Solopreneurs, Side-hustlers, Micro-business, Small Business, Medium business, Independent, VC backed, Bootstrapped and more - here for the real stories and priceless insights of it all, well beyond the PR headlines.

Join fellow business-builder Kim Kerton as she dives into the realities of starting something from scratch, helping you feel less alone in the lows and reminding you of the highs that make it all worthwhile. Hear real talk and raw feels from people right in the thick of it and feel seen as you listen.

Small business is tough - all business is tough - it will be one of the most intense things you'll ever do but it will also be the most impactful experience you can imagine. So surround yourself with a community of business owners willing to share with you their learnings, from those a few steps ahead, to many business milestones ahead, and even those just behind, and feel supported to build the business of your unique dreams. 

This is a podcast built to support you to build your own small business, to tackle the statistics and keep more of us in business for ourselves. To say thanks, you can support this independent podcast and small business by shouting your host a cuppa at buymeacoffee.com/unemployedpod
