EP55 Miriam Emele on Starting, Procrastinating and Bringing Your Best Everyday
My guest today is Miriam Emele, a woman who fights financial crime by day and runs her baking business Camie and Lily’s by night.I was introduced to Miriam by this week’s podcast sponsor Tide, and you can spot Miriam in their new TV campaign ‘Rise Entrepreneur’. Miriam launched Camie and Lily’s during the UK’s Covid-19 lockdown earlier this year having sat on her idea for almost a year beforehand. Miriam’s fear of failing manifested itself as procrastination, an experience that I know many entrepreneurs can relate to.In this episode, Miriam talks really openly about this period, how she moved through that fear and what she’s learnt about control, comparison and risk-taking in the months since. I hope you love Miriam as much as I do, her positivity and generosity really shine through in our conversation. Her message throughout is strong: “don’t let fear drive you”.This conversation was recorded on 1st October 2020. I hope you enjoy listening.---Thank you to Tide business current account for sponsoring this episode of Women On Top.If you’re ready to start your own business journey, visit tide.co/start to register your limited company and get set up with your Tide business current account in one simple process, for free.
