Lara Morgan, founder of Pacific Direct, speaking with podcast host Aleksandra King on The BEYOND Podcast. Lara Morgan says her business started in a granny flat in Bedford and the homes that followed, up to a manor, were stepping stones.

Asked by Aleksandra King what drove her on, Lara Morgan says it was security, meaning a family, a marriage and a certain standard of living. Having made good money as a young salesperson in Hong Kong, she wanted to upgrade from the flat she owned.

A friend said, "You're not going to buy a bloody castle," so I bought a manor.

She explains the sale with a rule of her own. When the children coming home is the problem, the home is what goes. Selling made her a digital nomad, with no wish to follow the rule book.
