After working in the hospitality industry for a little over three years, a career change couldn't have come soon enough. While meeting new people from all different walks of life was entertaining, the lifestyle was definitely not suited to me. So I did what a lot of people from Mackay do, packed up my little suitcase and set my sights on the 'big smoke'.I have over recent years become more aware of the increasing number of health issues that can develop as a result of poor lifestyle choices. When making the change in scenery, I made a conscious decision to make better lifestyle choices not only for the physical benefits but to improve my overall well being.My belief is that living a healthy lifestyle is important to your quality of life and I'm very grateful that I'm in a work environment where this view is actively shared; I appreciate that we are all able to enjoy a good work/life balance. This definitely keeps me connected to what is important to me.Outside of work, I love being outdoors and finding different events to get involved in. I enjoy the simple pleasures in life and one of those would be going out for breakfast on a Sunday morning. Breakfast is by far the best meal of the day and I mean I do LOVE a good brekkie, especially after an early morning's training session.
