## Resource

What happens when a hobby becomes a business overnight? In this episode, Lucy is joined by Jo Fisher, a lawyer for online entrepreneurs, to explore the legal realities of the online business boom and the growing challenges business owners are now facing. They discuss contracts, complaints, consumer behaviour, AI in the courts, and why many entrepreneurs are being caught out simply because the digital world evolved faster than the legal system. This is a grounded, honest conversation for business owners who want to build responsibly, ethically, and sustainably in an increasingly regulated online world.
