How I failed: So close to achieving my dream and then walking away, with Emma Sexton

In 2013 Emma set up strategic brand agency Hands Down in her spare bedroom, on her laptop, with just £1,000 in savings. She’d never run a business before and had been an employee for the past twenty years, since she was 18. Learning on the job, she put all her energy into growing the business over the next ten years. She had one goal in mind, to make £1 million a year. Despite the pandemic, the business was on set to reach this goal in 2022…but in July she decided to close Hands Down down. What went wrong? Listen to find out what. If you have any feedback, we’d love to hear it. What would make the show better? hello@secretleaders.com Sponsor links: quickbooks.co.uk/secretleaders
