Show notes

`After sixteen years in the construction industry, Sammi lost her job overnight. At the same time, she was living with type 1 diabetes through the chaos of COVID, trapped at home and terrified to step outside. Anxiety took over. Life as she knew it stopped.But what happened next changed everything.From her kitchen table, surrounded by boxes, heat presses and scraps of fabric, Sammi started making hoodies and workwear for friends. That side hustle turned into Branded by Sammi, now one of the most recognisable names in the UK construction and workwear community.In this episode, Sammi talks openly about the reality of losing everything, rebuilding from nothing, and finding purpose again. She shares her experience growing up around construction, the fear of starting over, the moment her anxiety almost stopped her from leaving her car, and the robust support network that helped her turn it all around.This conversation is raw, honest and inspiring, a reminder that even when you’re at your lowest, you can still create something extraordinary.
