Talking Through My Hat

Kate Wilson is the Founder and CEO of Nosy Crow, an award-winning child-focused, parent-friendly publisher of children's books. Kate has an extensive pedigree in publishing, but her decision to start a publishing company has its roots in a professional crisis that she's turned to a comprehensive victory! In this episode, we talk about the need to know yourself as a Founder, and to surround yourself with people who will complement your strengths (and weaknesses), and about how even commercial failures can be a great source of pride. Kate's story also highlights the importance of finding a support network - whether that's people on a similar journey or even stories and books about those who've trod the path before us.
