What you’ll learn from this interview:

How burnout in a job she didn’t like led Alex to start her own business
How her views on “hustling” and work have changed and how she’s been able to prioritise her health and wellbeing whilst growing the business
The challenges of creating and marketing a physical product and how she’s been able to address them

It was out of this frustration that Saint Belford was born, a company whose mission is to provide you with the tools and resources that empower you to keep self-care at the top of your to-do list, so that you can design, build and live a life that genuinely fulfils you, without compromising your wellbeing in the process.
