Change and Creating a Business From Something You Love - Seedlip Founder Ben Branson

"That's probably been one of the biggest things about all of this, change and the unknown. I think for everybody these are things that need to be embraced, and you've got to suddenly become best friends with the unknown and with change because that's what's happening" Amanda Blainey talks to Ben Branson founder of the world's first distilled non-alcoholic spirits, revolutionising how we drink when we are not drinking and drawing knowledge and wisdom from his 300-year-old family farming legacy. We discuss how Ben has rediscovered the simple things in life from his time so far in Lockdown. We look at how Seedlip evolved from Ben's love of plants, herbs, and nature. Talking about death is talking about how we want to live, what inspires us, doing things we love, playing, and building dreams from small steps. We talk about how Ben would like to be remembered, what his biggest legacy is, and why its important not to have regrets. Ben's story is a truly inspiring one.
