Welcome to the Cherrywood Podcast! In this episode, Simon and Rachel sit down with Paula Doyle, the founder of the Hindsight Directory, a trusted local business directory designed to connect homeowners with vetted professionals. Paula shares the story behind the Hindsight Directory, her vetting process, and how the publication supports the community, especially vulnerable groups like the elderly. From tackling scams to her career journey and hilarious anecdotes, Paula delivers an engaging conversation full of insight and humor. Plus, we answer fun audience questions, discuss her brush with death, and talk about surviving zombie apocalypses!
