I’ve followed The Britpop Princess for years and have watched her evolve into the brand, businesswoman, wife and mother that is Patricia Bright. And now she is a whole author! I listened to the audiobook earlier this month and wrote an in-depth review which you can read here.
I recommend you purchase or borrow the book for yourself if you want to fully grasp what Heart & Hustle is about. But for now, here are ten lessons I learned whilst reading it (not verbatim, but in my own words).
Ten Lessons from Heart & Hustle

A large social media following is not necessary for everyone
