Our guest this week is Leeanne Adu, an award-winning Personal Assistant and the Founder of Leave it with Lava. After spending a decade building her brand and business, following the birth of her daughter, Leeanne decided the time was right to branch out and offer her services providing virtual business support to small businesses and entrepreneurs.
Since then the business has begun to thrive and Leeanne smashed her goal to become fully self-employed by the end of 2019. Juggling not only motherhood and a full time business, in late 2020 Leeanne was diagnosed with stage 3, grade 3, triple negative breast cancer, which she is currently undergoing treatment for.
Leeanne also runs the Big Hearted, a community focused Backpackers running group for those who run at a slower pace. Outside the pandemic, the group meets once a week and Backpackers provides a home for those who feel lost in the many running groups around London which only support the faster runners. In her “spare” time Leeanne loves to run and uses running to help combat her own struggles with her mental health. You can follow her many adventures on instagram
In this episode Leeanne and Lara discuss:
We hope you enjoy.
