    There is so much grief that comes with shutting down a startup that no one really talks about. It's ok to be sad it didn't work.

    Proud mum moment: At school the kids were learning about black history and the teachers talked about @MarcusRashford getting his MBE for helping feed kids at school. My little boy pipes up and announces - My mummy has an MBE too! 😊😊😊 and then proceeds to say, Google her! πŸ˜‚

    Excited to see the startups presenting at the @beondeck African showcase. Highlight so far has got to be the @burnaboy music to kick us off!
