I was delighted to attend the ShelfLife C-Store Awards yesterday at the Royal Marine Hotel. The event was hosted by the returning master of ceremonies, Marty Whelan, and I had the pleasure (and a bit of star-struck excitement!) of sitting beside him during dinner.

The 2024 awards brought together over 380 guests from across the retail industry to celebrate the incredible achievements of the sector.

It was wonderful to see all the winners being recognised, including Applegreen, a company I worked with many years ago and hold very fond memories of. It was a great surprise to bump into Head of Retail Operations, and , Retail Operations Manager for Gala Retail Services.

I also had the honour of sitting next to Vincent Jennings, CEO and client, who was deservedly awarded C-Store Convenience Champion 2024—a huge congratulations to him!

A heartfelt thanks to Publisher of ShelfLife, for the kind invitation and to everyone who made the evening so special.

Congratulations again to all the winners! 🎉

Celebrating National Women’s Enterprise Day in Kildare! 🤷‍♀

A huge thank you to the fantastic team at the Local Enterprise Office Kildare for organising such a brilliant event themed "Girls Just Wanna Have Funds." It was a great evening, beautifully MC’d by the ever-inspiring Susan Hayes, "The Positive Economist." She captivated us with her journey, success, and thought-provoking questions for the guest speakers, Chupi Sweetman (Founder of Chupi) and Denise McQuaid (Investment Director at Awaken Angels), who both shared their incredible stories.

We were also treated to insights from two more amazing women—Erica Hargaden, Founder of Babogue, and Magda Seymour, Founder of Pure Oskar. Their stories of building successful businesses were nothing short of inspirational. Claire Dunleavy, Senior Enterprise Development Officer, also added her passion and expertise, reminding us that LEO’s door is always open for support and guidance.

It was a pleasure to catch up with so many enterprising women from Kildare over an evening filled with conversation, goodies, and a little prosecco!

I attended the event with my “partner in crime,” Louise Rawlins, a creative and driven mumpreneur. We met years ago at a women in business event, and our bond has only grown stronger since. Louise is a powerhouse, successfully running her own business while preparing to launch another—Castlestone Holiday Homes, a stunning development near Naas featuring homes built from 200-year-old stone cottages. Her vision and energy are always inspiring!

Here’s to all the hardworking women carving their own paths and managing their businesses with passion and resilience.

And finally, a personal note: a shout-out to my mother an enterprising woman who's enterprise was to run the family home in the ‘80s and ‘90s. I still don’t know how she did it. Seven months have passed, and there’s not a day I don’t think of her—often 100 times a day. She shaped me into the woman I am today and gave me every opportunity to be where I am, for which I am eternally grateful.

Miss you, Mam.
