***BUSINESS BOOK AWARDS 2021 SHORTLISTED TITLE*** Stressed and unhappy at work, Celia Gaze thought to herself one day: “Surely there must be more to life than this?” She resigned from her high-powered health management role and started transforming a neglected farm into an award-winning wedding venue. She faced nearly every type of challenge an entrepreneur can face – tribunals, near bankruptcy, court hearings, staff issues, system problems – and survived to tell the tale. But the moment that transformed her business from a struggle to a success was the moment she put a bow tie on a llama. Everyone thought she was crazy – why on earth would you do that? But it turns out that the ‘crazy’ ideas are often the ones that change your life. This book is a roadmap for uncovering your crazy idea and implementing it. From the pitfalls and problems to the practical details of making your idea happen, this is a roadmap for anyone who wants more out of life. Celia Gaze left a senior role in the NHS after frustration and work-related stress made her question her life and became the springboard to start her own business. Over the next few years she transformed a neglected hill farm in Bolton into a multi award-winning wedding and events venue – The Wellbeing Farm. She unites savvy business understanding with a passion for self-development that can’t fail to inspire you to transform your own life.
