Starting your own beauty business in your fifties with Katie Joynson
Episode 5
Wednesday, 21 September, 2022

Katie Joynson, aged 53, has a thriving Avon beauty business. Katie worked in IT for many years, climbing the career ladder to senior management. But after a career break to have her son aged 36 she found herself unable to re-enter the jobs market. Following a decade trying different jobs, Katie set up her Avon business aged 50. She is now a Sales Leader and a mentor to new Avon Reps and in March 2022 was awarded a ‘Star of the Year’ Award at the UK’s annual Direct Selling Awards. In this episode, she discusses how personal challenges such as her marriage breakdown and financial anxiety fuelled her drive for success and in the process helped her regain the power she once lost.
