In this week’s episode of FETE: From Employee to Entrepreneur - Stories to Inspire, host Katy Berrill sits down with Emma Rundle, founder of Melting Pot Creations, to explore what it really takes to step out of the corporate world and build a business that works around your life, not the other way around.
Emma shares her fascinating journey from accountant to copywriter, and how two decades in corporate communications laid the foundation for her thriving business today. She opens up about the realities of leaving the 9–5 for flexibility, the identity shift that comes with motherhood, and the lessons learned from 11 years in business, from finding your niche to saying “no” with confidence.
If you’ve ever wondered what life could look like beyond your corporate role, or you’re craving stories from women who’ve made the leap, this episode will give you practical insights, reassurance, and the reminder that it is possible to create a business that fits around your life and values.
