In this episode I chat with Rochelle Gilburn, a Sheffield-based entrepreneur and property investment business owner. Rochelle’s husband unfortunately passed away suddenly just over two years ago. We talk about the journey she’s been on and the amazing things she’s achieved since – not least setting up a business in a completely new industry, building a huge online community and reconnecting with martial arts, all whilst supporting her two young children. We talk about how Rochelle’s own humble upbringings, where money was a constant issue – to the point where her dad’s house was repossessed, has spurred her into creating an ethical property investment business where she connects investors with people who are at risk of losing everything to ensure both sides get the fairest deal possible. Ultimately though, this is a conversation about resilience, dealing with bereavement in a way that works for you, taking risks and getting out of your comfort zone, connecting to a higher purpose – which in Rochelle’s case is fitness and martial arts – and also realising that we create our own opportunities and often the main thing standing in our way is our own fear. Bereavement is obviously a really sensitive topic – and I can’t thank Rochelle enough for sharing her journey with us and for the work she does to inspire other people to achieve their goals, regardless of what these are or where we’ve come from. She’s an amazing person and it was a privilege to sit down and chat with her.
