Sara Davies proves dreams really can become reality - and it starts with stepping out of your comfort zone

Inspiring and empowering women underpin the values of woman&home, so to have Sara Davies as a cover star feels like a real privilege.

Sara's story is not only interesting but proof that a dream really can become a reality. She entered the Den as the youngest female Dragon, having built a remarkable crafting business from her university bedroom – the very definition of an entrepreneur.

Sara arrives at the shoot on her own, greeting everyone with her signature smile and unrivalled energy. It's immediately clear that whatever she does, she gives it her all. Yet she remains refreshingly modest, and openly admits that she has suffered in the past from imposter syndrome, saying, ‘You only grow when you step outside of your comfort zone.' It's a hard thing to do, but she's right.

Sara wrote to the w&h team after the shoot, and one line in particular felt too special not to share: ‘It's such a huge privilege to have been invited to work with you all on such a big interview and photo shoot, and I really hope I did you justice!'

Her warmth and gratitude in everything she does sets her apart. She tells us that she surrounds herself with friends who are full of energy and uplifting, saying, ‘We really celebrate each other's successes.' I think we could all take a leaf out of her book.
