## Resource

Georgie Coleridge Cole is the founder of SheerLuxe, one of the UK’s leading digital lifestyle brands. Over twenty years, Georgie built SheerLuxe from a weekly newsletter into the go-to destination for fashion, beauty, travel and interiors. Then she sold it for £40 million. Georgie’s story is proof that a simple idea can become something extraordinary. So, I couldn't wait to sit down with her for this week's episode of Founders Friday. In our conversation, Georgie shares: - The purpose behind the SheerLuxe empire - Why she thinks the creator economy is booming - The big business idea she never followed through with - The difference between a good idea and a good business Georgie is proof that an idea, done well and done consistently, can become an empire.
