A woman who left a job at Tesco to launch her own business was shortlisted for a national award after only seven months.
Elana Green, 23, worked at a Prescot branch of the supermarket chain for three years and tried marketing and law courses at Edge Hill University before taking the leap and pursuing her dream. She said: "I did enjoy law, I made so many amazing friends and I found it so, so interesting, but I just knew something was missing.
"People would say to me, 'What do you want to do in the future?', and whereas everybody else was so sure that they wanted to be a barrister or they wanted to work in HR, I didn't really have an answer because I knew that wasn't where my passion was."
