Hey there,

The official summary:

Hold on there a sec...

Let’s back it up because this whole official talk’s a bit stuffy right?!

Truth is, I’ve been given a whole lotta labels over the course of my life: entrepreneur, finance & operations guru, enneagram-3, travel addict, data cruncher, crazy-animal lady, prosecco drinker, chocolate connoisseur… the list goes on…

But really, I’m just a big messy mix of all of the above.

But let's back up even further... to where it all started...

Ever since I can remember, I’ve always been intrigued about how businesses worked… the elegance of creating something out of nothing has always fascinated me. As I grew up, I was always trying my own mini hustles – selling Christmas Cards to my grandparents, making earrings to sell to my friends at the school fete. Even when I wasn’t focussed on making money, I was always trying to create something out of nothing – whether it be setting up new societies at university or establishing a mentoring network for aspiring students in my corporate job.

But running my own business wasn’t in my original game plan. I was your classic straight A student and I have big goals of climbing up the corporate ladder and becoming the CEO of a giant company.

So, it was no surprise that I ended up in a big 4 consulting role - working in a fast-paced environment where I got to travel the world and solve complex problems for my clients. I LOVED my job… but I always had this nagging feeling that I was destined for much bigger things.

So, in my evenings and weekends, I started a business – revision guides to help other struggling trainee accountants pass their exams without the stress. It started as a way to help others, but over time the business grew.

This growth was absolutely amazing, but I quickly realised it was not sustainable. Trying to juggle the 60+ hour work weeks, traveling all over the place for my corporate job, as well as managing my growing business was taking its toll. I was on a fast track to complete burnout.

But burnout was not part of my game plan.

So, I made a decision to change things.

I had to do what I was doing for my corporate clients but for my own business. I had to figure out how I could achieve more with less.

Because if I could help my clients save millions of pounds, implement new systems across their global network, restructure their businesses, combine company cultures in a merger and bounce back from a major operational cyber attack… there wasn’t much I couldn’t do for my own business. All in a day’s work, right?

So, I sat down and combed through every aspect of my business to work out how I could work smarter and not harder. I developed tools and strategies to reduce my workload, automate my processes and generate sales in my sleep.

It was a game changing moment.

I meant I could leave my job, safe in the knowledge that I could pay my bills (plus some!). I could travel the world whilst I worked. And I could finally focus on what I loved – helping other ambitious women achieve the same excellence in their own businesses, without sacrificing their personal lives in the process.

I’ve seen the inside of major global companies - I’ve worked alongside their CEOs and Execs… so why shouldn’t you also get to use the same tools and strategies in your own business?

‘Cos let me tell you… seeing a fellow female business owner change their business’ trajectory because of the skills and strategies that I can teach them is ONE MILLION times better than any big city firm bonus.

That’s why I’m so passionate about helping other amazing women create a business that truly supports their life so they can have more….

More money. More fun. More freedom. More impact.

So, if you’re a go-getter, ambitious business owner and you’re ready to make a greater impact, you’re in the right place.
