Six inspiring stories from six great guests talking about life, change and recent business success!
Georgina Little – Suffolk Brand Photographer
Georgina talks about her lifelong love for photography and how, whilst living in Kenya, she began to take it more seriously. When the pandemic hit in March 2020, Georgina took a long hard look at what she did, and quite literally ‘pivoted’ her business to working with like-minded creatives and small businesses producing high-end imagery for their brands. Now as ‘Suffolk Brand Photographer’ Georgina is loving her work and has developed an incredibly unique and sought-after service. Georgina talks about her work in depth and unveils some of the secrets to her success.

Ann-marie Doggett – Miami Fox Apparel
Ann-marie just loves the 80s! She talks to us about her passion for 80’s music and Florida and how she has merged these two loves into her new business – Miami Fox Apparel. Before the pandemic Ann-marie ran her own Marketing, Events and PR company in Lowestoft – she talks about her fabulously unique parties and bespoke events – none of which she can do at the moment. Quick thinking and some thorough research, along with her husband, they developed a fabulous logo and very exciting fashion brand Miami Fox Apparel. This brand is fresh and exciting and has spread its success both locally and internationally

Kate Byrne – Co Director of Asgard Fitness Ltd, Newmarket
Kate, along with her fiancée Dan Jones and friend Paul Turner noticed a gap in the market in Newmarket for an independent gym – they wanted a gym that cared about its members personally and created a mini-community of members and staff. ‘Asgardians’ (members and staff) are involved with some of the decision-making at Asgard, including thoughts on new equipment and other facilities which gives the club a great sense of unity and belonging.
