#57 From advertising to entrepreneurship: Taking the leap to care and impact with Jessica Barlow

29th September 2021

Jessica is a social impact entrepreneur who started two businesses during the pandemic. The first, Sunday Care Therapy, is disrupting the care industry in London. The second, the No Agency Method, is teaching DIY PR to startups. Born and raised in Hong Kong, she moved to London to attend art school at Central Saint Martins and worked in Advertising and Tech Marketing for a decade before taking the leap into entrepreneurship.

We worked together in fashion advertising about 10 years ago, and I’ve loved seeing how Jessica’s journey has evolved since.

What we talk about

In this episode, we caught up and I got to ask her all about her new business Sunday Care Therapy and what it was like to quit the easy route and make such a big pivot. We talk about how burnout is a gift, why things happen for a reason, using tech for good, surrendering to what you can’t control, and how to realise your own ability.
