Rachel Elnaugh-LOVE is a former Dragon's Den investor and entrepreneur who founded Red Letter Days, pioneering the experience gift industry in the UK.

Growing up above her father's electrical shop in Essex with four brothers, Rachel developed strong business instincts early on. After receiving multiple university rejections, she found her way into accountancy, which provided vital financial expertise for her future ventures.

At age 24, Rachel launched Red Letter Days from a simple idea about gifting experiences, growing it into a multi-million pound market leader. However, in 2005, while caring for her newborn baby, she faced the devastating loss of her company through what she describes as a "corporate mugging" by fellow Dragons Peter Jones and Theo Paphitis.

This profound setback led Rachel to transform her perspective on business and life. She began speaking at events, wrote a book about business failures, and discovered her talent for mentoring other entrepreneurs. Her journey deepened further through exploration of plant medicine, shamanic practices, and spiritual development.

Today, Rachel combines business mentoring with metaphysical teachings, helping others achieve transformation through what she calls "flowing with the universe." She recently launched a 90-day transformation program and lives by the ocean, where she's developing an online series about effortless and joyful business creation. Her story exemplifies how perceived failures can lead to profound personal and professional evolution.
