You may already know the wonderful Jennie Johnson MBE from the hugely successful Kids Allowed chain of nurseries that she founded in 2003. In this conversation Jennie starts by sharing the story behind her switch from a successful IT career into the world of Entrepreneurship and how she pioneered a completely new approach in a well established sector.
However we quick move on to her failed attempts to retire having sold Kids Allowed and then the lightning bolt of inspiration that led to her new venture My First Five Years. This is a great conversation to learn the value of being a second time entrepreneur because you can see Jennie's confidence, superb team-building and huge ambitions are setting My First Five Years up to be even more disruptive and even wider reaching than Kids Allowed. I can't wait to follow the journey!
