  • Changemakers: Freddie Garland
    2025/07/16

    In this episode of Changemakers, recorded live at Virgin HQ, Natalie Pearce sits down with Freddie Garland, founder of Freddie’s Flowers — the subscription flower service that brought fresh blooms, creativity, and colour into thousands of UK homes.


    Freddie’s story starts with a milk float and a dream. From door-to-door sales and DIY Excel Gantt charts, to building a beloved household brand, his journey is anything but ordinary. He shares openly about the pressures of startup life, the power of simplicity, and how he’s finally stepping into the spotlight ten years on.


    Whether you’re a founder, florist, or fan of floral joy, this conversation is full of lessons in resilience, creativity, and staying grounded while growing something special.

  • Changemakers: Harriet Hastings
    2025/07/02

    Host Natalie Pearce sits down with Harriet Hastings, the innovative founder of Biscuiteers—a luxury biscuit-gifting brand that transformed the food gifting space.


    Harriet shares how her entrepreneurial leap came after stepping away from a successful career in publishing and PR, seeking greater control and flexibility as a mother of four. Starting Biscuiteers in her husband’s catering kitchen, Harriet spotted a gap in the market for stylish, personalised gifts and turned it into a business now icing nearly three million biscuits each year.


    Key insights include:


    • The power of storytelling and organic PR in building a brand.
    • How Harriet strategically leveraged corporate partnerships with global brands like Dior, Cartier, and Emma Bridgewater.
    • Her experience navigating challenges in manufacturing, scaling operations, and managing multi-channel sales strategies.
    • Advocacy for female founders through her initiative “Buy Women Built,” tackling systemic funding issues and championing women-led businesses.
