This week, we sit down with Gemma Matten, Business Engagement Manager at the University of Suffolk, to unpack a career journey full of unexpected turns, tough moments, and bold decisions.
From working in recruitment and property sales, Gemma shares how redundancy during the 2008 recession and just after having a baby, pushed her into starting a business!
We talk honestly about the reality of self-employment, the pressure that comes with it, and why mindset matters more than having a perfect plan.
The conversation also dives into apprenticeships, employer engagement, networking without the awkward sales pitch, and how businesses can tap into student talent to solve real problems. Plus, we hear how an unexpected podcast studio purchase eventually led Gemma to becoming a podcast host herself.
Packed with practical advice, career lessons, and real-life perspective, this episode is for anyone navigating change, building something new, or wondering what could happen if they just took the leap.
