Olivia Jenkins - Founder of D.Louise Jewellery
In 2021, during the second lockdown, Olivia turned a side hustle on Instagram into a thriving jewellery brand with a mission - creating timeless, long-lasting, yet affordable pieces. Named after her late mother, Deborah Louise, the brand quickly gained a loyal following for its focus on quality and meaning.
Today, Olivia leads a fast-growing business backed by Steve Hewitt, former CEO of Gymshark, whose belief in her vision and expertise in scaling direct-to-consumer brands is helping D. Louise reach new heights.
Pippa Murray – Founder of Pip & Nut
Pippa is the powerhouse behind Pip & Nut, and her journey is a seriously inspiring mix of hustle, heart and a whole lot of nut butter. It all kicked off back in 2013 when she was training for marathons but totally running out of steam. Nut butter should’ve been the dream snack... but everything on the shelves was loaded with junk. So, what did she do? Grabbed her kitchen blender and got to work.
What began as a side hustle has now grown into a nut butter empire stocked in over 7,000 stores, with annual revenues exceeding £10 million. Yes, seriously. Today Pippa is one of the UK’s most inspiring food entrepreneurs.
