We discuss here Tara’s extraordinary career, her time within the NHS, where she worked on world leading units in London, to help people suffering from severe mental illnesses.

Tara discusses why she had to leave the NHS and start out on her own, where she now can even bring her expertise to your door if necessary. We talk about her numerous lessons she has learned along the way, highs and lows as a psychotherapist and much more.

Amy Mellor, head of marketing at David Mellor Family Jewellers is my guest on this episode of the podcast.

A true family business, founded by David Mellor in 1976, David Mellor Family Jewellers has long been established as one of the go to jewellers in the area.

I talk to Amy about how the business started, her role within the company, and just what is it like to work with your siblings? Also, Amy shares her business tips, highs and lows and more.

However, it is also an incredibly personal episode, as Amy talks about her dad, David, founder of the business who sadly passed away in April 2025. She tells me about what kind of man he was, and the huge responsibility she and her siblings feel in running the business in his name and doing him proud. And without doubt, he would be incredibly proud watching them run his business so successfully right now.
