Lucy Hall’s story is one you don’t want to miss. In this episode of Behind the Future, Lucy Hall, founder of Digital Women and SocialDay, shares how she went from teaching herself digital marketing as a teenager with no computer at home to becoming one of the UK’s leading voices in digital skills and community building. Lucy didn’t take the traditional route. She wasn’t a straight-A student, didn’t leave school with perfect grades, and often felt like she didn’t fit in academically. But when her mum bought the family’s first computer at 17, Lucy saw an opportunity. She started selling products on eBay, taught herself HTML, built websites, and even became one of the first sellers to make eBay listings look professional with custom designs. That spark turned into a passion that grew into multiple businesses and eventually Digital Women, a thriving community helping thousands of women upskill for the future of work. Her mission to help the next generation feel confident with digital skills. Lucy Hall’s journey proves you don’t need perfect grades or the “right” background to build something incredible. If you’ve ever doubted yourself, this episode is packed with motivation, honesty, and real advice to help you take your first step.
