What happens when you take a bold idea - a women-only coworking space and turn it into a thriving hub of creativity, community, and support?
In this episode of Powering Productivity, Suzanne sits down with Stacey Sheppard, founder of Tribe Coworking in Devon. Stacey’s not just running a space she’s redefining what support looks like for freelancers, founders, and change makers.
They talk about:
✅ The realities of running a niche, women-only coworking hub as a solo operator
✅ How balancing business with life (yes, including school holidays) can spark new models of support
✅Why traditional business programmes often miss what’s really needed: emotional scaffolding
✅ And the big question: as AI reshapes traditional jobs, are coworking spaces already carrying the future of entrepreneurship on their shoulders?
One line that really stayed with Suzanne:
👉 “Coworking spaces are the pathway to entrepreneurship. The infrastructure already exists it’s just so underused.” Stacey Sheppard
This conversation is honest, heart-led, and full of fresh perspective. If you’re a micro business leader, a coworking operator, or simply curious about how values-led spaces shape the future of work this one’s for you.
