Listen "1 Finding Balance: Helen Corsi-Cadmore | Dod O Hyd I'r Cydbwysedd"
Episode Synopsis
How do you put yourself first and prioritise a healthy work-life balance when setting up and growing a business?
It's something Helen Corsi-Cadmore has learned the hard way. In this first episode of Inspiring Women Wales, Helen talks about her journey from first dipping her toe in the family business at the age of ten, to bringing the Tiger Stores brand to Wales. It's a story of building relationships, finding finance, and learning to fail fast.
Now, as a coach and business growth specialist and mum to twin toddlers, she champions the importance of having strong support networks, and of having boundaries in place to keep that work-life balance in check.
