Hello I'm George Kouragkow and welcome to today's in conversation with

podcast. Today I'm joined by a bit of an industry great. I'm joined by Anjahaimarsh.

She is one of the UK's most admired, respected, inspirational and genuinely nice entrepreneurs.

And if you haven't read her recent book,

if in doubt wash your hair, then really you should.

As well as that incredible book,

she has been awarded an NBE she is a Greenpeace

Ambassador she's had a huge part to play in fashion and sustainability in fact she

was hugely ahead of her time when she collaborated with Sains Reuth to launch her I'm not a plastic bag campaign.

Gosh there's so much to say Anya thank you so much for joining me today.

I can't tell you what an inspiration you are and how lovely it is to have you on our podcast.

Will you start by giving us a bit of a synopsis to your career?

There are a few people I say this to you, a national treasure.

Oh God. And it's crazy to... No, you've achieved so much and you know... I know from having read your book how many women you resonate with.

My God, that book, there's just, I have so much to ask you about that book.

But before we get onto that, which is by my bedside

and I'm now on my second read of it, True story. Can you give anyone that doesn't know the whole story? Can you

you guys a brief synopsis of how you are where you are today?

Sure I can try.

So, well, my name's Ania Hindmarch.

I'm actually totally British, even though I sound slightly foreign.

I'm age 53, which is very old.
