Viv and Elizabeth Solaru

I was hoping Elizabeth would bring in some of her wonderful cakes for me to sample and she did! You can’t imagine how happy I was – still am! Her cakes are exquisite! As for the interview, I loved every minute of it; and can only describe Elizabeth as one of the most remarkable people [...]

Maggie Berry

Merry Berry and Viv

Apart from the weather, I had a brilliant day today; and it started with meeting and interviewing the ever so fabulous and passionate Maggie! She was amazing! I love that I get to see things from different perspectives and thanks to Maggie’s passion I understand these issues a whole lot more – I could have [...]

Dylis Guyan

Dylis Guyan and Viv

Hard not to love my job when I get to meet people like Dylis! Easy to talk to and has a lot of experience and knowledge to share as well. Today was another confirmation that I must maintain a high standard and diverse range of guests on the show. Listen to us chat about her [...]

Rosey Hurst

Rosey Hurst

I had courted and chased Rosey relentlessly for months before she found some space in her very busy diary to fit in our interview! So imagine my huge disappointment when we started 20 mins later than planned, because I hadn’t mastered the phone-in technical stuff properly. But once we got it sorted, it was certainly [...]

Shirley Palmer

Viv and Shirley Palmer

My day got even better with my interview with Shirley – what a lucky girl I am! Shirley is passionate and very engaging, and it was inspiring hearing her story and journey to being an entrepreneur; as well as the Charity – Obesity Action Campaign she’s set up. Our time suddenly came to an end [...]

Rioch Edwards-Brown

Rioch Edwards-Brown and Viv

Amazing interview with Rioch today! I would describe Rioch as a warrior Mum! She demonstrates that when other people or circumstances seem to be saying no about what you want in life, you should turn round and say yes and fight for it. The love and support from her husband Ian has been key to [...]

Carolyn Pearson

Viv and Carolyn Pearson

Loved my interview with Carolyn! It’s been a long time coming, and I was really pleased it lived up to my expectation (and hopefully hers too:)!). She’s lovely – brought me tulips which just warmed my heart to no end. Carolyn is the 1st guest I’ve had on the show that works full time for [...]

Review of Dee Blick’s “The Ultimate Small Business Marketing Guide” by Lois Ireson

Dee Blick's _The Ultimate Small Business Marketing Book

  Like getting a personal trainer for your business! As an experienced marketer I understand marketing is a topic that often befuddles people. I heard Dee Blick talk at a recent www.women-unlimited.co.uk event and thought that she managed to de-mystify marketing in a very memorable talk. So I was keen to review her bestselling “The [...]

Emma Blake

Viv and Emma Blake

Emma is a star! We met recently and as she spoke about her new venture Pinstripe and Pearls, I knew she would be great on Dream Corner! When I called her to book the date etc, she casually mentioned that she was picked as the Accountancy Age’s prestigious 35 under 35! My research unearth a [...]

Anne Loyd

Viv and Anne Loyd

It was great to meet and interview Anne today. She came in a little earlier so we got a chance to chat off air which was brilliant. I am always amazed how much I learn from each guest and that’s what makes Dream Corner such an exciting job for me. Anne talked about her journey [...]
