Rachel Elnaugh said: “This is a fantastic time for women to thrive through creating and growing their own business and I love events aimed at female entrepreneurs.

“The energy of optimism and co-creative collaboration is always awesome.

“At LadyFest I’ll be talking about my own learnings having taken a company from nothing more than an idea into a market-leading £multi-million business, some of the key principles on how you can get into immediate flow of prosperity around money, as well as the current shift in consciousness meaning businesses run with ‘feminine’ values are now far more likely to succeed.”
