Jenny Graham - making The World her business

How endurance cyclist and world record holder Jenny Graham became an entrepreneur, author and broadcaster

In the first of two fascinating interviews, we talk to Jenny Graham - the holder of the women’s Guinness World Record for cycling fastest around the world, and now a successful author, broadcaster and entrepreneur. Achievements she’s realised without a background in either professional sport or in business.

We find out how she got into endurance cycling and then hear how she’s turning her adventures into a sustainable income, including through publishing her cracking book, “Coffee First, Then the World”.

In this episode, she talks to us about

  • How working in the outdoors doesn’t have to mean becoming an instructor

  • Overcoming her discomfort in commercialising her adventures and acquiring the business skills she needed

  • The value of networks and mentors in helping her achieve her goals
