Find out about her experiences and how she got to this point.

The music used in Chatting with Interesting People videos has been created by Steve using Bandlab.

Having grown up in the centre of Notting Hill, it was almost inevitable that Kasete would get into music.  What was less expected was his quest to be an Olympic skier having taken up skiing in his 30s! 

I managed to find time in his busy schedule to find out how that happened.

In this episode, Jason and I talk about nightclubs for teenagers, technology, being an entrepreneur, major illness and our fondness for coffee.  

How do you make sure coffee from around the world is treating growers well while striving for excellent flavours?  Jason explains that plus much more. 

See oldchapelcoffee.co.uk for this exciting new brand, soon to be on Amazon too (link will be provided on launch)  

Jason was one of the early people to contract COVID in the UK and due to kidney failure a few years before, he was extremely vulnerable to it and spent time in an induced coma with a ventilator.  Like many people, these events prompted him to change direction to something he is particularly passionate about. 

If you're interested in seeing what else Jason is involved in, he's on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jasonmageehan  

I also mention yesfriends.co.uk for ethical and affordable clothing.  

lendwithcare.co.uk is also mentioned for small loans to help entrepreneurs in developing areas around the world.  I was able to lend money during my working career into a number of these small businesses and when they get repaid I'm able to reinvest that in other people.  

It's organisations like this that follow Jason's passion for using business to change lives around the world.
