Putting the Family Feeling First with Hippychick’s Julia & Jeremy Minchin #30

This episode covers:

• Taking the opportunity to see your partner flourish
• How Jeremy’s paragliding accident put the Hippychick team to the test
• Changing sectors and undergoing a cultural shift to join the family business
• How Julia and Jeremy pushed through uncertainty and built their brand in the early days
• Juggling parenthood with the business, and how it can feel like an extra child of your own
