Bounce Back After Lockdown - UK's Fastest Growing Insurance Network Teams Up With Mpower To Measure Covid-19 Impact on Mums in Business

Bounce and MPower are coming together to uplift mums in business that may have been hit hard by the pandemic and they are looking for individuals to share their tips, tricks and setbacks in bouncing back from lockdown as a parent in business.

This month Kent-based Bounce Network, the UK’s fastest growing insurance referral network, is teaming up with award-winning Business Coach, Mentor, Author and founder of women in business network Mpower, as they reach out to other mums to share their lockdown realities to a) gauge the temperament of the nations’ working mums and b) to help identify the areas they need support on so they can offer it in their new Bounce Back Podcast series, established to help inspire, support and uplift other mums in business across the globe, many of whom have been hit hard by the pandemic.

Bounce Network was established in 2016 by Founder Ashley Reading who is a proud family man and father of two and is passionate about empowering others and ensuring all parents can be both the best mothers/fathers whilst also having great business success too. He has teamed up with Nicola Huelin, a proud mum of four and Founder of Mpower as they set out on their joint mission to find out the reality of lockdown for working mums, and launched a survey to gauge the current mind-set of mums across the country and identify what areas working mums would like to focus on in order to bounce back from lockdown.

Bounce is the UK’s fastest growing insurance referral network, providing work from home opportunities to over 5000 individuals across the country. Bounce has recently been featured in The Startups 100 showcase of new businesses, which demonstrate innovation, solid financials, economic impact, and the ability to scale. However, Ashley admits that ‘Success is not always easy and life can sometimes feel challenging…’

The Mpower ‘Bounce Back Interview Series’ kicks off with Ashley bravely sharing his story of bounce back and how he went from being a 9-figure business owner to becoming homeless and penniless almost overnight following the financial crisis, sharing how did he bounce back from losing everything to creating a passion-led business that supports thousands of mums in business earn a great income, whilst protecting their families.

Ashley said; “We are absolutely thrilled to be partnering with Nicola and the Mpower community. Success is not always easy and life can sometimes feel challenging - I am so happy to kick this series off by sharing my own story of bouncing back and hope that my story, alongside many other extraordinary stories from our guests, helps to inspire, empower and equip mums across the UK and beyond, to not just bounce back from tough times but also to bounce forward even stronger. This collaboration came about as both Bounce and Mpower share the same values around empowering others and ensuring all parents can be both the best mothers/fathers whilst also having great business success too. Bounce Network is all about providing people with the right insurance products to ensure they, their families and their business are protected and can bounce back from unforeseen setbacks and challenges. Receiving the right knowledge and support and having peace of mind when it comes to home, family and business is something I see as invaluable.”
