Episode 40: Timmy Orritt and Emma chat all things business, instagram and life in general.

Timmy Orritt is a human, equine & canine sports therapist, well used to telling rugby players that they can’t play on.Join me as I chat to her about growing and running a business and insta vs reality

Introduction

One of the great things about hosting a podcast is that you get to chat to lots of people! I’m always curious to hear how people came to be doing what they do and it seems that serendipity often plays a big part in shaping careers!

Timmy is no exception to this and becoming a multi-disciplined therapist happened organically after she qualified as a sports therapist. She then went on to gain her equine and canine qualifications and is currently studying for a further qualification - she is one busy lady!


Our Discussion covers…

  • Career Path

  • Business Development

  • Work Philosophy

  • Challenges of Self-Employment

  • Social Media and Branding

  • Professional Community

  • Personal Well-being

  • Advice & Reflections


Key Thoughts Shared

  • Authenticity builds trust: Clients appreciate clear, jargon-free communication and a human approach.

  • Community over competition: Building relationships with peers strengthens the industry and personal confidence.

  • Social media ≠ success: Real business growth comes from word of mouth and consistent service, not follower counts.

  • Work-life balance: Recognizing personal limits and seasonal priorities prevents burnout.

Thanks so much to Timmy for being so generous with her experience and wisdom.
