How far would you go to create something that doesn't exist?

If you’ve ever felt stuck between wanting to create change and not knowing how to fund it, this conversation will remind you: the resources, people, and opportunities often come after you begin.

Meet Amy Langfield—Co-founder of Grow with Iris, a sustainable toddler nutrition brand—who turned the pain of her daughter’s allergies into a mission to change food and formula for families everywhere.

You’ll hear how Amy’s journey from idea (2018) to launch (2024) was fueled by her daughter’s allergies, navigating regulations, co-founder dynamics, and learning how to build as an entrepreneur in an industry she once knew nothing about.

In this episode:

• Funding Doors You Didn’t Know Existed: How Amy accessed UK business funding and support networks to build what seemed financially impossible.
  
  
  
• Co-Founders & Community: The inside story of building alongside a partner and finding strength in support when entrepreneurship feels lonely.
  
  
  
• Pivoting Under Pressure: The unexpected route that unlocked a whole new customer base.
  
  
  

You don’t need millions in the bank or connections to launch something bold—you just need persistence and a belief that someone out there needs what you’re creating.
