Summary

Holly Tucker MBE sits down with Gabby this week to share her fascinating journey to the midpoint in life, and how she’s using her mortality as a motivating force to ensure the next chapter is a healthy and purposeful one. The trailblazing entrepreneur and founder of Holly & Co has dedicated the last twenty years to championing small businesses, and especially, turning people’s attention to the power of the female pound! We find out why her nickname is Holly Hurricane; what exactly a “marigold clause” is; and why doing things differently has been the one constant in Holly’s life. She also talks about why guilt is a wasted emotion when it comes to juggling parenting with a successful career, and how women in midlife have an opportunity to reclaim themselves and own their power, both in business and in life.

Just like Holly, this episode will leave you with a sense of belief, purpose, and power!
