Hello and welcome back to Champagne Circus! I'm your host, Yvonne Stoffel, and today we have a very special guest joining us.

In this episode, Agnieszka Gaczkowska shares her inspiring journey from being an architect to sparking a creative revolution from her home, creating a platform for handmade artists called OPLOTKI. We’ll dive deep into her experiences with mentors, learning to make her own decisions, and the profound impact of scaling businesses in a way that fits personal lives and needs.

Agnieszka reveals the transition from offering physical workshops to navigating her business online during the pandemic, focusing on the value of crafting safe spaces for women to connect and grow. She reflects on managing her company, scaling down when necessary, and embracing influence and purpose in entrepreneurship, especially for women.
