I am a happy friendly person who is always happy to help if I can.  

At the age of 10, I had a paper round, at the age of 11 I ran the paper round, had the shortest round and earned the most money. 

At the age of 13, I ran a babysitting club – fixing up friends who would babysit for parents who wanted nights out. (me - I just collected the money).

At the age of 16, I had a job YTS for those who remember earning £23.50pw, whilst my babysitting business was bringing in £30. pw. 

I went to live in London at the age of 17.

At the age of 19, I was the main alternative therapist for all the main hotels in the west end.  There were a group of 5 of us, and I started to learn what life with money was like. 

At the age of 23, I had an aromatherapy product on the market and managed to get it onto the shelves of Selfridges and Fenwick’s, successfully sold that business.

At the age of 25, I had two hair and beauty shops at the age of 30, I had 4. 

At the age of 39, life changed, successfully; beauty shops sold - I went sailing then started a sailing holiday business. 

Age 45, life changed again and I sold the sailing business and came back to Chester.

Now I work for myself as a Business Growth Specialist, with this ethos; to be successful, you have to have your heart in your business, and your business in your heart.verage
