    The unorthodox entrepreneur transforming London youth unemployment with Bridget Callaghan Ep.12

    Do you long to make a positive change and impact in your community or the world? We often think that the only way to do that is to donate our hard earned money to charities or to volunteer. But what if you could create a business where being profitable and making an impact could coexist?  Our guest in today’s episode shares with us what it means to build an impact driven business and put people and sustainability at the forefront of your business strategy. We talk about what it takes to build a startup hospitality business from scratch, the challenges of focusing on making a social and environmental impact as a business, how to put on your problem solving hat on and so much more! Today’s guest is Bridget Callaghan, founder of the multi-award winning pizzeria, Well Kneaded in London, winning awards for environmental sustainability, women in food for employing young people on the margins, and 2022’s entrepreneur of the year for Wandsworth enterprise awards.  With nothing but £5000 in savings in startup capital, she was dead set on starting a food business with the sole purpose of helping unemployed young people with disadvantaged backgrounds find work and build a better future.  How to connect with Bridget: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/wellkneadedfood/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/wellkneadedwagon Website: https://www.wellkneadedfood.com/menu Learn more about Daring Forward: http://www.daringforward.com/ Win the Ultimate Online Business Mega Bundle Giveaway!: https://www.sahartwesigye.com/mega-bundle-giveaway Join our exclusive Facebook community, Daring Forward Insiders: https://www.facebook.com/groups/daringforwardinsiders Want to learn how to show up online and serve your audience with clarity, confidence and without the constant battle with self doubt?
