Everyone loves your business idea, especially your mum and bestie. But what happens when you take it outside the group chat?

This week, we’re talking about idea validation: how to find out if your idea actually has legs without spending loads of time or money. We cover why friends and family support is lovely, but not enough, and how to get feedback from people who don’t know (or love) you.

From free tools like email sign-up pages to scrappy prototypes, we’re sharing practical, low-budget ways to test the waters before diving in.

Still no intro music (but we have a brilliant local editor coming to help!) and our first proper expert guest is live next week!
