Scarlett Allen-Horton: The Apprentice Who Found Her Voice

Richard Britton

The Apprentice finalist Scarlett Allen-Horton’s story defies the statistics — and proves her belief that success is always possible. She left home at 16, became a mum at 19, and was surrounded by expectations of what she could and couldn’t become. But Scarlett didn’t accept the script. She reached the final of The Apprentice, built a successful executive search firm, and has become a voice for leadership that opens doors for others.

This conversation goes beyond the CV — into identity, adversity, and the kind of mindset it takes to turn the improbable into a must.
