I have always been a great believer in knowing your worth and using your talent to be the very best you possibly can be.

After spending several years at university gaining multiple degrees and a Masters in Law, I started my career on the corporate ladder, working for several firms, learning as I went, with the desire to work my way up the traditional career ladder. The narrative, as always, was the hope to create more freedom the higher I climbed. In fact, what became apparent was the harder I worked, the less time I had for my family and to find the space to truly do what I had always wanted. I set up a couple of side hustles whilst working full time and juggling the demands of motherhood, teaching and training as well as writing my own course content. These highlights simply echoed the fact I wanted to work in an environment where I was the boss and where I created the narrative of how the business would look.

Being a mum and working full time is no mean feat it involves making decisions where you feel torn between your family life and your career. Rushing home to pick the children up and take them to a party and dreading the thought of how time would be managed during the summer holidays. I believe many parents feel the same and the overwhelm of being the best you can be every single day was exhausting.

In 2020 rather than moving to another job in the hope that I would find a role I loved I decided enough was enough. The exhaustion of being given objectives for somebody else's vision led me to set up my own business. I continued to work full time, commute and spent my weekends and evenings as well as being a mum setting up a business which I always believed was something other people did. I also decided to use my time, to teach, and I took up a position as Visiting Lecturer.  Taking after my mum who was an avid teacher.  

I am now the director of three businesses, and I am about to launch another business with female entrepreneurs at the core of my mission to help other mums take the leap to become business owners and take back control of their time.

With decades of experience managing teams and working at partnership level my exposure to many of the moving parts of running a business means I can help others with their business strategy and to create the business they desire.

You no longer need to feel trapped in a world where things simply feel like they are not enough whether this is time or money or space. The very foundation of the hamster wheel project. You can simply create what you want and make it work, all you need is some help and guidance from those who have already walked that path.

Since taking the leap to move from being employed to self-employed I have been able to choose how and when I take my holiday, no more asking for time off to attend my childrens’ sports day or pop to the hairdresser. I get to choose when I work and how I work transforming my family life.

I love to travel, since setting up multiple businesses I have been able to divide my time allowing the most holidays I have ever taken in my entire career. Mauritius being the most memorable and multiple trips to Disney World in Florida, well, I must admit I am somewhat of an expert when it comes to planning your holiday!

Anyone can be an entrepreneur - the biggest leap you must make is having faith in yourself to do it, and being consistent every single day.

If I can make it happen - so can you.
