Towpath || Start A Partnership

Welcome to the latest episode in our Start Series. In this episode we consider, Start A Partnership. And we do so with a very special pair indeed - Lori de Mori and Laura Jackson of Towpath.

Towpath is that rare thing these days. It is a discovery. Nestled in four kiosks on Regent's Canal, the shutters open in Spring to reveal a warmth, an intimacy. They offer great food, drink and conversation. Their cookbook - sharing recipes and stories - is a little window into their magical world and, importantly for us, the partnership of Lori and Laura. There is a chemistry, a trust, mutual reliance and honesty in this partnership. Perhaps it is the most important recipe of all.

I ask Lori and Laura about how they met, their individual experiences and points of view, the early days, how things have evolved and what they think the key is to a great partnership.

So if you are thinking of starting up a project with someone, are in a partnership that seems to be struggling a little or one that is thriving and you want to make the most of it, this is for you.

 

I feel very lucky indeed to have enticed them to record this episode just before they opened for Spring. A myriad of delays means that I am only releasing now. But the good in that is that they are open. Go today. Go now. You won't regret the time you spend there.

 
There is just a natural chemistry and something in our combination. It means that we have the luxury of trusting one another to get over disagreements or to make decisions as they are necessary.
