Founder of BU Happiness College, Declan Edwards
“How beautiful a thing that you get to do opportunities that you don't quite feel ready for.”
Getting yourself PR, growing through new ideas, bringing on other people to help you build – every stage of business is about growth, and so much of it is scary.
But when you’re passionate about building a business with impact, you find a way through it – lucky for us we get to hear how other business owners are learning through it.
