Hi! It’s Rachael, Michael’s daughter here!

You may know me from Backstreet or my cafe Badminton Brew which I sold a few years ago.

I’ve been invited by Kenrose Bakery to speak at their next event on September 22nd all about my journey as a cafe owner to working in private events for billionaires in Europe and my new business.

In the price of the ticket you’ll get a copy of my workbook “Your Future Starts Here” where we will do some goal setting exercises along with delicious food and great company.

Hope to see you there!
