Belfast

I spent the first half of my career in a thick fog, and of course I got lost and ended up somewhere I didn’t want to be. I felt lost, miserable, and what little confidence I had was waning by the minute. I also became a total bore. I was consumed by how unhappy I was. I couldn’t even apply for another job because I didn’t know what I’d do. So I felt stuck. I had, by many measures, a great job, a great salary, in a great company. But I was in the wrong place. I was ambitious with nowhere to direct it, so it evolved into frustration! It took a fair bit of effort to turn it around, which started with working out what I wanted and developing some much needed confidence to get there. Thankfully I had a good basis with my Psychology degree, throw in a mountain of self-help books, a coaching and NLP qualification, a mountain of training on presenting and the like…and a real desire to build my brand, visbility, and expertise, meant I built a reputation for business and leadership transformation. That experience of having a big impact, being recognised, and having real influence made me feel like I could achieve anything. My values, purpose, and strengths were all aligned and I felt amazing! It came as quite a shock then to be confronted by my inner feminist one day. I’d had my first daughter (I now have 2), and was having a cheeky nap. You know how it is, I love my sleep! So for the first time ever, I sat her down in front of Nickelodeon so I could get some zzz’s. I was happily snoozing away when the advertising started to filter through to me. The ‘boys toys’ were all exciting and adventurous. The ‘girls toys’ made me want to vomit. All about being pretty and vacuous. I jumped off the sofa with an ‘oh hell no’! Ever since I was a little girl I’ve been driven by fairness. I think it may be because I’m the youngest of 4 and nothing ever seemed fair from my standpoint. My sister tells me of times I used to fight for gay rights at the dinner table and I was always arguing for what I felt was right (because it is). The one thing I’d never have called myself back then, or until that day, was a feminist. No, I’d been well trained by society to see feminists as embarrassing, hairy, dungaree-wearing angry women who made a show of themselves. This moment set a chain of events into action that lead me to start a political party where I live, and gave me the direction for the business I would later start.

Macarons & More Cookery School

macarons & more cookery school

London

OUR STORY Our Story Macarons & More is the passion project of one man: Tim Kinnaird. Tim originally trained as a doctor and worked as a consultant paediatrician in Norwich. Although he loved his job, his passion for food was a thread that ran throughout his life – and when he was given the opportunity to explore it further, everything changed. As a contestant on MasterChef 2010, Tim caught the nation’s attention with his gentle manner and showstopping desserts. On his journey to the final, he cooked at Michelin-starred restaurants and even served a banquet for the Maharajah of Rajasthan. “Tim has the gift of making sweet things incredibly delicious - and his macarons are to die for.” JOHN TORODE The experience inspired Tim to leave his job in February 2010 and start a business from his kitchen. MasterChef judges John Torode and Gregg Wallace had spotted his ability for creating exquisite patisseries, and so did the public. Within six months, the business outgrew Tim’s house. #TeamMacaron was formed to cope with the growing demand and quickly grew to a nine-person operation once production moved to a kitchen in Watton, Norfolk. Expanding the team has brought in a whole range of additional skills and personalities. Macarons & More has been growing ever since. In 2011 we launched online, meaning we could deliver our delights throughout the UK. Then in March 2013, our beautiful shop opened in Norwich’s Royal Arcade. By 2014, it was getting tricky to meet demand both in the shop and from our wholesale and online customers. Don’t get us wrong; it was a very nice problem to have! With the support of our fantastic sponsors, including Belling, Magimix and Kenwood, we opened our new central Norwich bakery in January 2015. Now, we can cook up even more treats than ever. Our bakery is also where we run the very popular Macarons & More Cookery School. Led by Tim and the Macarons & More team, our classes are informal and hands-on, helping keen amateur bakers learn new techniques and recipes in a fun environment. In September 2018, we opened a second shop in Norwich’s busiest shopping mall: intu Chapelfield. As well as the support of our amazing customers, Macarons & More has received local and national acclaim. We won the Beautiful Baking category in the EDP Food and Drink Awards in 2013, and we were runners up in the Observer Food Monthly Awards in the Independent Retailer category in 2013, 2015 and 2017. Tim’s passion and dedication has built a wonderful independent business at the heart of Norfolk. Why not try one of our macarons and find out what it’s all about.

HOW DO I START LEARNING FOREX? The most effective approach to learning Forex trading is via free courses that cover introductory topics, pouring a deep foundation and then building on them with more advanced lessons. The content should be interactive, easy to understand, and followed by a quiz to ensure beginners have understood the lessons. IS IT HARD TO LEARN FOREX TRADING? It depends on the individual, and beginners should approach Forex trading with the same mindset as choosing a high-skilled profession, like an engineer, a software developer, a lawyer, or a doctor. Those passionate about finance, numbers, and the economy should have no problems learning how to trade. Developing a profitable long-term strategy requires more time, patience, and trial-and-error. HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO LEARN FOREX? The time it takes to learn Forex depends on beginners, their time commitment, and capabilities, but it often takes months to cover the basics, plus a few more months to learn about technical analysis. Beginners must also study trading psychology, as it makes or breaks any trader, but it is unfortunately a frequently ignored topic. HOW DO I START TRADING FOREX BY MYSELF? Before opening a trading account with an online broker, beginners should invest adequate time in their Forex education. The easy accessibility of financial markets causes most beginners to underestimate education, while the reality is that successful Forex trading requires an equal or more substantial commitment than most high-skilled professions. IS FX ACADEMY GOOD FOR BEGINNERS? FX Academy is a high-quality educational academy featuring interactive courses, excellent and easy-to-understand written content, short videos, and quizzes at the end of each lesson. Everything is free of charge, allowing everyone equal access to one of the most comprehensive educational resources for Forex traders, which expand continuously. ARE ONLINE FOREX TRADING CLASSES WORTH IT? Free online Forex trading classes can offer tremendous value to beginners. Paid-for alternatives, often created by failed Forex traders, charge a fee for free content, and beginners should avoid them, irrelevant of how well-marketed paid classes are. WHERE SHOULD I START LEARNING FOREX TRADING? There are many ways to get started with a high-quality Forex education. A comprehensive Forex academy offering free lessons, like FX Academy, provides an excellent start to beginners who are excited about Forex trading and seek well-explained content, interactive courses, videos, and quizzes to conclude each lesson. HOW DO BEGINNERS LEARN FOREX TRADING? Beginners can spend hours searching online for educational Forex content they think they must study, which can provide an experience of its own but may result in missing important topics. A more efficient method is using free educational courses like the ones provided by FX Academy, with experts curating content relevant to beginners and advanced traders.
