  • Episode 59 - Dr Anna Fleck
    Jan 23 2026

    In this episode of the Women and Wellies podcast Hannah is joined by Dr Anna Fleck, a remote and rural GP whose work is taking her to some of the most beautiful and hard to reach communities across Scotland.


    From growing up between Edinburgh, Sydney and Glasgow to carving out a portfolio GP career that fits around family life, Anna shares how she found a different way of practising medicine. One rooted in flexibility, curiosity and connection. Through the Rediscover the Joy of General Practice scheme Anna now works across island and mainland communities including Shetland, Caithness, the Inner Hebrides and the North Coast.


    Anna opens up about what it really means to be a remote and rural GP from lone working and emergency training to the privilege and responsibility of serving tight knit communities where everyone knows everyone. She reflects on confidence, imposter syndrome and the importance of trusting your training when help can be hours away.


    This conversation is also about family, adventure and place. Anna shares how travelling Scotland in a campervan with her husband and young daughter has shaped their lives fostering flexibility, resilience and a deep love for rural landscapes. Together they explore how rural communities support one another through challenges, celebrate together and why community connection matters more than anything.


    An inspiring episode about redefining success in your career, listening to what truly matters and finding joy by doing things differently.

    Educational Episode 2 : IHT and Succession Planning with Eilidh Adams


    With so much change, legislative and otherwise, we’re continuing our series of educational episodes to bring insights, advice and awareness to support your families and businesses. In this series we’re looking at …


    Key Takeaways you can expect from tuning in: -

    • It can feel daunting to tackle succession planning and face the sometimes difficult conversations, and of course costs, involved, but early action secures your rural business for future generations.
    • Inheritance Tax planning is a key component of any good succession plan.
    • Rural businesses have traditionally benefited from a fairly benign Inheritance Tax system, but significant changes were announced to the main rural business reliefs in October 2024 which take effect from April this year. These changes mean early planning is now even more critical.


    With a case study to bring this to life, this is a must listen for every rural business!

  • Episode 58 - Carenza Pinn
    Jan 9 2026

    Carenza Pinn is forging her own path with confidence, creativity and quiet determination and this conversation captures exactly what it looks like to back yourself even when the way forward is not clear. From growing up in the Highlands and Kinross to navigating loss, education, work and big decisions at a young age this episode is an honest reflection on learning through doing.


    Carenza shares her journey from leaving school early and questioning university to building a thriving equine portrait photography business that is rooted in connection, storytelling and care. We talk about finding her niche working with horses and their people and why lifestyle and trust sit at the heart of everything she creates. From trade stands and client relationships to mentors, manifestation and learning business skills on the job this is a story of persistence and belief.


    We explore the realities of starting a business young, from juggling multiple jobs and finances to confident, client facing, growth and discovering that your difference is your strength. Carenza reflects on the power of saying yes, taking your time and allowing your goals to unfold, without rushing the process.


    This episode is a reminder that there is no single right path and that success can come from listening to yourself trusting your instincts and giving yourself permission to do things differently.
