My Life in Cheshire - Freedom Doran
We talk to Freedom Doran, Founder/CEO of 22 Impact + NETHRIAL
How would you describe yourself?
I would describe myself as someone who has a high work ethic and drive as well as a need for organisation in everything that I do. I can be quite blunt at times. Asides from work I would like to think I am kind and passionate about everything that I do.
Where is home? And work?
I live in Formby, Liverpool most of the time and work is wherever I am at the time as I am fortunate enough to just need my laptop and phone to work so it’s spent between Cheshire, Liverpool, Manchester and London for the most part.
What did you want to be when you were younger?
I wanted to be an actor when I was younger and tried it out doing a couple of adverts and TV shows and really enjoyed it actually.
What do you love most about the industry you are in?
I absolutely love the people behind the brands that we work with in both companies, I’m such a social person so being able to work with incredible people in all sorts of businesses and develop those relationships outside of work as well.
Name a few of your favourite places to be...
I absolutely love going to Mallorca for the summer it’s one of my favourite places in the world. Being anywhere with my close friends is the best place as we are a super close group and always have the best time wherever we are even if it’s just down the road.
What or who inspires you?
One of my biggest inspirations is Umar Kamani he owns PLT and I look up to a lot of the things he does and how he has managed to scale is amazing. Alongside him, I look up to all of my friends that own businesses. We all support each other and it’s great to see everyone thriving.
What was the last gift you gave someone?
I gave an Apple Watch to my friend for her birthday with a few different coloured bands - she loved it.
Tell us a secret/fun fact?
I went to fashion week for the first time when I was 14! No idea how my mum didn’t have a panic attack looking back!
Who or what would you place in Room 101?
Slow drivers not driving in the slow lane on the motorway. It grinds my gears because it causes all the traffic to be pushed over and resulting in a mini-traffic jam.
What’s been your biggest life lesson?
I have had a few but my most recent was when my house had a gas leak during the night. Thankfully, I was ok but it was just another reminder that our lives can be taken at any moment and to make new memories and to push even harder for things I want in life.
