In this episode of the Rebel Influencer podcast, host Leona Burton welcomes back Gulshen Bano, founder and CEO of Strike Back, to reflect on her powerful journey to and through Dragons’ Den. Gulshen opens up about the intense preparation behind the pitch, the emotional highs and lows of the experience, and what it truly meant to secure investment from fellow female founder Jenna Meek.

Together, they explore the deeper mission behind Strike Back, the role of self belief when stepping into rooms that can change everything, and how this milestone is shaping the future of the organisation. It’s an inspiring conversation about courage, purpose, and what’s possible when you back yourself and your vision.
