From redundancy to a 10k Month Business: Rebecca’s Interior design success story

Lauren Leopold Episode 37

Are  you dreaming of starting or growing your own business?

In this episode, I’m joined by my incredible client Rebecca Hadley, and her journey will inspire you to take that leap.

Rebecca spent 15 years in retail buying before deciding to pursue her passion for interiors. But the road to success wasn’t smooth. After incorporating her business in 2015 with no clear plan, she faced redundancy while on maternity leave—right as COVID hit.

But instead of letting the pandemic derail her dreams, Rebecca saw it as an opportunity to start her business. Fast forward to today and she’s celebrating 10k months, has hired a team of freelancers, and is finally doing the work that she always dreamed of.

Rebecca's story of not giving up when the shit hit the fan and fumbling her way through the juggle of mumming and entrepreneurship is nothing short of inspirational.


“I knew it was within me to make it work, I just needed someone to help me get it out.”- Rebecca
