Born
in Braintree, Essex, brought up in Barkingside and attended Clark’s College
School for Girls in Ilford, achieving all the qualifications needed to be a
secretary. My first job at the age of
16 was with the Legal & General Assurance Society in London where I started
out as a shorthand typist, progressing to personal secretary by the time I left
to have my family at age 22. I married
at age 19 and have three children. This
marriage did not last and I remarried at age 32 and moved to Southend-on-Sea,
Essex.

Returning
to work when the children were old enough I worked for the NHS as the secretary
to a Professor of Thoracic Medicine at The London Chest Hospital and
subsequently for a Consultant Psychiatrist at Parklands Hospital in
Basingstoke, where we had moved to from Southend-on-Sea in Essex.

I
relocated to the Isle of Wight in 2003, having had a holiday home there since
1998, which was intended to be a retirement home. The move was prompted by the premature death of our next door
neighbour just before her 60th birthday.

I
started my own secretarial business on the Island aimed at small businesses who
could not afford to employ another person.
This has built up from just 1 customer in 2004 to over 50 currently.

Whilst
on a Business Link course in 2004 I met someone who was undertaking a Life
Coaching course with Newcastle College, and it was free at that time. It sounded interesting to me and I had
nothing to lose, so I took their free Certificate and Diploma courses as well
and successfully qualified as Personal Life Coach. I also discovered that I loved coaching.

I
bumped into Jonathan Jay, who I remembered from his stage hypnotic act some ten
years before in the holiday camps on the Isle of Wight, at a Small Business Exhibition
at the NEC in 2005 and he suggested that I join him at the Coaching Academy to
gain even better qualifications, which I did and successfully qualified as a
Corporate & Executive Coach.

I
met Dawn Breslin through the Coaching Academy and loved the work she did and
the way she did it, and trained with her to become a Confidence Life Coach
Practitioner and Confidence Group Trainer.
I love this even more than just coaching.

More
recently I have been licensed by Susan Jeffers to present her workshops based
on her book “Feel the fear and do it anyway”.
This is just fabulous.

I
am on a mission to inspire everyone to find and live their passions - to be
their authentic, true self.

I am passionate
about your personal development. I present powerful and inspirational courses
designed to build your self-confidence and self-belief. I guarantee to
dramatically improve your life, both on a personal and professional level.

I feel my job is to be responsive, flexible and
enabling, to draw out the star in people. In particular, I am skilled in
rebuilding people's self-esteem and confidence, enabling them to develop to
their full potential. To do all this requires a holistic, lively approach to
personal and professional development, from the delivery of the training and
coaching through to on-going support. And I’m interested in results – no ifs,
no buts.

The workshops I offer have you specifically in mind - the solution
for you to stop feeling scared and vulnerable. The solution for you to
start moving forward with your life.

I have articles published in:

European Coaching Institute Newsletter June 2006 – Is it
cool to be happy?

Hearing Concern Magazine 2006 - "Benefits of Thought
Field Therapy in adapting to loss of hearing"

Business Vision Magazine -
September 2006 - Do you want your ideal work/life balance?

I have published my e-book 7 steps to building confidence in yourself and it is selling well.

 

I have now written a second book 'What you believe creates your reality' and this is now in the process of being published and will be on the bookshelves in early 2010.
