By listening to other peoples stories we can learn so much. Just other a year ago James Powys left a secure and comfortable role at Britvic to set up his own business. With the standard long list of commitments like looking after family and paying the bills, how did James find the motivation, energy and commitment to step outside his comfort zone and into a world of the unknown.


You may have already set up your own business or are just thinking about it, whichever one you are, there is something in this interview for us all to learn from.


James explains the planning and preparation he did years prior to going self employed and then how he test two business models he had conceived.  


I recommend after listening to the journey James went though - take a couple of minutes to reflect on your journey. Where are you now and where do you want to be? What will your journey be like and what obstacles can you already see?


In just over a year James has created a successful business and he did this through foresight and utilising his network.
