S6 E16 - I Lost £100,00 Overnight & Coming Back From Disappointment - Why I Resonated with Audrey Hamilton

BeBelle Podcast with Sian Horn

Show Notes

We all love a comeback but we rarely talk about what it takes to come back from disappointment.

Today, I’m reflecting on my conversation with the brilliant Audrey Hamilton - artist, creative, entrepreneur, and bright spark of a human. I thought I knew her story… until we sat down to talk. In this minisode, I share what stuck with me - not just about her success, but about the moment things didn’t go to plan. Because it’s easy to admire people at the top. But the real magic? It’s in how they come back when things fall apart.

We also talk about failure (and why I don’t believe in it), our own experiences of losing businesses, and why reinvention starts with values, not validation.

✨ In this episode: Why I don’t believe in failure Audrey’s creative journey and pivot back to purpose What happens when a dream doesn’t work out My story of losing a business and rebuilding during a recession Relationships, values and building something real Why disappointment might be the best teacher of all
