I am Melissa, the course creator. As an entrepreneur and mentor, I am extremely passionate about sharing the many skills, experiences and lessons I have learnt and gained on my entrepreneurial journey. I currently run 2 creative businesses, have written an eBook, have had my products sold out with a major online retailer as well as with boutiques in and around London. I have been featured in press and have had the pleasure of helping others on their start-up journey.

I started out on my business journey as a young adult and one thing I often say to myself is “I wish I had been able to start younger! I wish I knew what I know now, earlier on in life!” You can watch a short Instagram video about my journey by clicking here
