I have seen and experienced many changes since I began my working life before mobile phones, smart phones, the internet, laptops, tablets, or personal computers were available to everyone.

I have a passion for the performing arts, and became a professional performer in cabaret and theatre. I became a Samaritan Volunteer, a UK based charity offering telephone and face to face befriending to people in emotional distress. This developed my interest in helping and supporting other people, and building skills I would use later on professionally.

I worked for a major charity as a counsellor, supervisor, manager and trainer while gaining professional qualifications in counselling, psychotherapy, and hypnotherapy. I established a small private practice offering therapeutic interventions to help people reduce stress and anxiety, lift depression, remove phobias, manage anger, beat addictions, and much more.

When I was offered redundancy from the charity in 2015, I used the opportunity to explore a new working life free from former constraints. I chose to look for opportunities that would provide the maximum flexibility, while utilising all the skills I have developed over the years. I maintained my knowledge and skills in personal therapy, and although I chose not to use these in private therapy settings, I have incorporated them in my online business activities in the form of therapeutic coaching for entrepreneurs, business owners, and anyone who needs to improve their business mindset to maximise their business potential.

I set up my first business as a personal travel consutant in my own travel agency by becoming a franchisee of Not Just Travel, a leading UK based independent travel agency offering ABTA and ATOL bonded travel. I am proud to be part of an award winning agency that has continued to offer first class support to its new and existing customers through times of change in the travel industry from 2020 and beyond.

I am approaching that time in my life when I want to be free from 9 - 5 work and being stuck in an office. I want to enjoy a better lifestyle travelling and enjoying a full range of leisure activities, so I have established some online business activities including digital and affiliate marketing that will enable me to generate more passive incomes, and allow me to look forward to a stress free lifestyle.

I am a Lifeplus Independent Associate, an Arbonne Independent Consultant, and an online entrepreneur running direct and affiliate marketing projects. I am also developing my own range of products that will soon be available from my own e-commerce store opening in 2021.

In 2020, I published Mabazim, a website incorporating all my professional activities, and offering a variety of services.
