This week we’re joined by Holly Scarsella - brand and business consultant, investor and mum of three - for a powerful, no-fluff business masterclass on how to build, grow and scale a business in today’s digital world. Holly shares her journey from working in PR for global brands to founding and selling her own fashion label, before moving into consultancy and mentoring female-led businesses. Drawing on real-world experience, she breaks down what actually separates businesses that succeed from those that struggle, especially in an oversaturated online market. We explore the importance of mastering the fundamentals before chasing growth, why conversion matters more than visibility, and how understanding your customer journey, touchpoints and retention strategy can completely transform a business. Holly also unpacks why many founders rush to scale too soon, how to know if your business is actually ready and the honest questions every founder needs to ask themselves about capacity, risk and sustainability. This conversation is packed with practical insights on marketing, community building, confidence, problem-solving, and redefining success — particularly for women balancing ambition, family and wellbeing. Whether you’re just starting out, feeling stuck, or considering your next stage of growth, this episode offers grounded advice you can apply immediately!
