I never achieve a set goal and then see it as an ending…
I don’t think I am defined by a particular success or a particular failure. I am a collection of all of those things and what I have learnt from them. I actually learn the most from my failures. I think it is easy to paint a picture of all the things I am good at and all the things I have succeeded at, but I have learnt the most from the jobs I have hated, the jobs I have got fired from and launches that didn’t quite work. That is where all of my learning and growing comes from.
People love a stereotype. The media loved to push stereotypes, it makes a great story and the stereotypes can be a vicious cycle. When Steph and I first started talking about the company in the press, we never wanted to talk about being female entrepreneurs and being women in business or being successful female founders or even like successful millennial females. We very much didn’t want to be identified as that as we thought it was discounting the work we had done.
