#206: Rose Hood - How the Farm Girl Built a Thriving Big City Business
This week, I speak with Rose Hood, co-founder of perhaps the most Instagrammed cafe in London, Farm Girl. I sat down with her at Farm Girl for a chat as light and pleasant as the brilliant coffee they serve. As a mother and entrepreneur who is in business with her husband, Rose is a success story on all fronts. The secret? A loving and loyal support system.
Listen as we discuss:
- How I ended up recording Slo Mo at Farm Girl.
- Why Rose moved from Melbourne to London.
- The story of Farm Girl, her phenomenal cafe and business.
- Surviving lockdown as a business.
- London as an amazing city for women entrepreneurs.
- How Rose learned to make a great coffee.
- What constitutes a healthy diet?
- The challenges of doing business with your husband.
- Evolving a business through failure.
- My pipe dream of running a strictly pie and coffee shop (or being a farmer).
- Rose's top tip for happiness? A loving, loyal support network.
