Andrew Armitage talks to branding and PR expert Megan Matthews.

Writing a book is a goal a lot of business owners and experts have. Seeing @emmybrunnerofficial achieve this goal has been highly rewarding.
⭐️
Her book is the perfect step on the path to delivering on her core purpose ‘To empower women to create lives where they are fully able to realise their own potential.’
⭐️
If you want to write a book- ask why? How will it deliver against your core purpose and therefore help you achieve your ultimate vision?
⭐️
Emmy’s book (@penguinlifebooks) available with all major UK 🇬🇧 book sellers as of Thursday 20 May 2021.
⭐️
It’s the ultimate guide to healing from within- no matter what you’re healing from.

How can your Brand authentically speak to this new

And now, my number one ☝🏻 female inspiration.

And now, my number one ☝🏻 female inspiration. Meet Marsha Matthews, my mum. The woman who has inspired me since the day I was born.
⭐️
As a former fashion designer (aged 18 at the start of her fashion career in the first pic!) turned interior designer, she has made it clear to me, the importance of basing your career on something you truly love.
⭐️
She went back to school at age 40 to become an accredited interior designer. 🏠
⭐️
When I asked my mom about the women who inspired her in her career, she said:
"No one inspired me to do what I did other than myself…there were very few female interior designers at that time … men dominated the industry."
⭐️
She proudly brought her character traits to the creation of her successful interior design business.
⭐️
“The name of my company was ‘Where the Heart is Interior Planning’… “Heart” because I was inspired to NOT be like so many other designers who forced their personal choices on their clients…I believed that a designer should listen, observe and learn what it is that makes each client happy … colours, textures, style ….to help each client create an environment that reflected THEIR personality and not that of their designer."
⭐️
My mum’s career advice?
“LOVE what you do ! Choose a business you are passionate about; your passion will come through in the way you communicate with your clients.”
⭐️
I feel very fortunate to have a mother who sets an incredibly strong example in work ethic, and to follow your dreams even if it means taking a path not many others did before you. 💕💕💕💕

Hmm @campaignmagazine I wouldn’t call this a mod

Bev Hammond was my first boss out of university. And she continues to inspire me despite it being over 15 years since we last worked together. She’s a badass business woman, with a big brain and a bold heart (she loves people big and has so much empathy). She follows her heart to start the businesses that lead her to a place of professional fulfillment.
⭐️
She is a partner and the CBO at @brokenheartloveaffair, an ad agency inspiring people to fall in love with brands again.
⭐️
Bev is the one who encouraged me to move to NYC in 2010 and helped me land my dream job there (with another fabulous boss in @lynntesoro!)
⭐️
When I asked Bev about the women who inspire her career she said:
🙋‍♀️ My Mom!
🙋‍♀️ Honourable Kim Campbell, PC - former Prime Minister of Canada 🇨🇦
🙋‍♀️ Tina Seelig (@tinaseelig727 - Stanford professor, author, speaker, entrepreneur
⭐️
Bev loves what she does and her passion is infectious. I look forward to the day when hopefully our professional paths officially cross once again!
⭐️
Until then, I celebrate this inspiring woman who has touched my career, and my life, in so many ways.

The next brilliant woman who has inspired me is my former colleague and now friend Melda Simon. #iwd2021
⭐️
Melda started Little Fires 🔥 , a sustainability strategy and communications consultancy. She is one of those people who leaves you feeling inspired after even the shortest conversation (and usually laughing).
⭐️
She finds the fun in everything and while being dedicated to her craft like no one else I know, she keeps everything in perspective. She has helped me many times, put what may seem like a stressful situation, into its place.
⭐️
In honour of IWD, I asked Melda, for the 'why?' behind what she does.
⭐️
“The world 🌎is a bit of grim place right now and I believe we need conscious brands and purpose-driven leaders more than ever. We work with brands, organisations, entrepreneurs and solopreneurs to help spark positive change.”
⭐️
And beyond her former boss Sue, who gets a shout out in the images above, Melda is inspired by:
🙋‍♀️”My best friend, @emmybrunnerofficial, has always helped me to dream big and think way beyond self-limiting beliefs.”
🙋‍♀️”CJ Cregg, the press secretary from my favourite show ever, #westwing. She’s my go-to inspiration for being the perfect combination of gentle yet fierce.”
⭐️
Well Melda Simon, your gentle yet fierce combination is my go-to inspiration.

What’s in a name? With so many starting businesses right now, it’s worth sharing insight on what makes a great name. It can be one of the most difficult steps (akin to naming a child!)
⭐️
As a company founder, follow these rules and then go with your gut. You can bet some naysayers popped up when the likes of @google @spotify and @amazon were going through the naming process 🤔

Good can come from the toughest of times, and with a record breaking increase in new businesses registered in 2020, many are taking a flying leap into entrepreneurship.

It’s scary. It’s exciting. But @jomalonecbe is a wise woman!
