Breaking Barriers With Entrepreneurship and Community Support Coworking Values Podcast

    • Entrepreneurship

In this episode, we have Stacey Sheppard [https://www.linkedin.com/in/staceysheppard/], Director of The Tribe [https://thetribecoworking.co.uk/] - a community-driven coworking space in the South Hams that focuses on supporting and empowering female entrepreneurs that are both creative and committed to professional progress. 

Stacey is also a full-time interior designer and blogger, journalist, and writer. Ivanne Poussier [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ivanne/] included an interview with Stacey in the book Sisters in Arms - Women in Coworking [https://www.amazon.com/Sisters-Arms-search-inclusive-coworking/dp/2957530309], which profiles female-centric coworking spaces in Europe.

Stacey talks about "Biophilic Design" - a concept that incorporates natural elements into the built environment, which is beneficial to mental health and well-being. She shares their thoughts on the future of coworking and their own personal experiences with the practise.

Stacy also delves into how she aims to create opportunities for the youth of her community to succeed in life, and she has done so by starting an online business using resources that did not exist while she was in college. 

And she also touches on how there is a perceived lack of missing skills and experience, imposter syndrome, and a dearth of related sponsors, role models, mentors, and professional support networks for women in rural Devon. 

She also highlights the benefit of surrounding oneself with like-minded individuals who understand the significance of building relationships, working together, and encouraging one another.
