Today was interview day for the Solopreneur Awards and a 10 hour round trip to Gatwick.

Not because that's where the interviews were taking place but to pick Travel with Cait up.

You see we are both finalists and thankful the interviews are on zoom which means you can be anywhere in the world and still attend your interview.

Mine was a car park in Horley - perfect little drop of and pickup if you are flying from Gatwick as it's only one stop on the train with none of grief.

Caitlin's was at the Oxford services on the M40 - depending on traffic and whether her flight was delayed etc, depended on when we would stop and that was the last one we could do for her to make her interview time.

So all done and now we wait for the 9 October to see if either of us are winners - but just by being finalists together is a win for me.

Thank you Sandra Garlick for creating these awards as just by entering them it makes you think about your business and where it has come from and is going to.

WE DID IT — and I mean WE. 🎉

I'm beyond proud to share that I'm a FINALIST in the Woman Who Solopreneur Awards 2026… and so is my daughter Caitlin of Travel with Cait

You might remember our story we each entered without telling the other and only found out when our nomination emails arrived.

Now we've both made the finals, and we're told we're the first mother and daughter ever to get this far together in the awards' history

Judging interviews are on 14 September, winners announced at the Awards Lunch on 9 October.

Thank you Sandra Garlick for creating these awards.

However far this journey takes us we're going there together. ❤️

Here's the twist I promised…

I'm not the only Redgate nominated for the Woman Who Solopreneur Awards 2026.

My daughter Caitlin, founder of Travel with Cait entered too. And here's the best bit: neither of us knew the other had entered. We only found out when our nomination confirmations arrived!

Caitlin launched her travel business at just 21 and has recently come home from seven months travelling through Australia, Bali, Malaysia, Singapore, Vietnam and Cambodia. Watching her back herself and enter these awards without saying a word to me…

I couldn't be prouder. Mother and daughter, side by side on this journey. ❤️

If you've followed Hunnypot for a while, you'll know these awards mean a lot to me, and this year there's a twist to the story that I'll share in my next post. Trust me, it's a good one.

Thank you Sandra Garlick for creating a space where women who run businesses single-handedly get to tell their story.

🎂 Hunnypot is a teenager today!

Thirteen years ago, this business started as a bakery. Today it's a bakery, an events company, the Festival Flavour Stage at Lichfield Food & Drink Festival a hand in the Lichfield Echo, and most weekends, a radio gazebo in a field alongside the weekly shows and podcasts with Lichfield Radio & Echo.

Thirteen years of early mornings, flour in unexpected places, and a community that kept showing up. That last part is the whole secret. You don't get thirteen years without the people who buy the bread, book the stalls, tune in and read the paper.

So thank you, whether you've been here since the first bake or found us last week. 💛

No birthday lie-in though: tomorrow Lichfield Radio is live from Burntwood Wakes Festival . Come and find the gazebo, say happy birthday, and get yourself yourself on air! 🎙

Here's to the teenage years — I trust they're going to be easier than when the children were teenagers 🤣

I'm not a guru, I'm someone who made the switch to plant-based in 2020 and never looked back.

I know what it's like to stand in the supermarket wondering what on earth to cook.

That's exactly why this programme exists: real food, familiar ingredients, no confusing jargon, and a community cheering you on.

If you've been plant-curious for a while, this is your sign. We start Monday. 🌱

One week today, a group of lovely people will start 30 days that may just change how they eat for good.

A plant-based way of eating may help support your energy, digestion and overall wellbeing and you don't have to figure any of it out alone. Every meal is planned, every shopping list is written, and I'm with you every single day.

Early bird pricing: £150 for the first 10 places, then £200. A few early bird spots are still available.
