Ellen Bennett likes to speak in mantras. As founder and CEO of apron and kitchen accessories company Hedley & Bennett, Ellen has had an incredibly inspiring path to success. Her new book, Dream First, Details Later: How to Quit Overthinking & Make It Happen!, is for all the entrepreneurs out there who have dared to dream. It’s a fresh take on a business book, crafted with the tone of your friend giving you a pep talk, and it’s packed with sage advice, vibrant illustrations, and frank and honest accounts of her own journey. Among other things, Ellen is a talented chef and organizer. And during the pandemic, Hedley & Bennett has sold and donated hundreds of thousands of masks to date. You always learn something when you talk to Ellen, and her passions run deep. I’m so excited to share my conversation with Ellen with all of you.
