In this episode, David is joined by Jen Grimstone-Jones who, along with her partner Ali, owns the Pangbourne Cheese Shop. Given that they had a cheese wedding cake it almost goes without saying that Jen and Ali are very passionate about cheese. During the podcast, she recommends several varieties.
She shares her story and approach to life, talking about how to become a cheese master, succeeding in retail, the importance of helping others, and answering David´s interesting cheese questions.

ABOUT THE SHOWPeople with purpose make a difference. Imagine a world where more people can just get their purpose out of them, into a plan, and then actually make it happen. What a world that would be - People everywhere finding meaning and harnessing that to bring inspiration and energy to each and every day, changing lives for the better. But no one ever achieved anything on their own - we all have something unique to bring and that means we all have to play our part - if we want to go far, we have to go together and lead or serve towards a vision of the world we want to see. Everyone has a story to tell, and this show is where these stories come to life.
