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 offering telephone and face to face befriending, meeting my interest in helping others, 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 face to face settings, I have incorporated them in my online coaching & business activities.In 2015, I decided to develop a completely new business in the world of travel by becoming a franchisee of Not Just Travel, a leading UK based independent travel agency offering ABTA and ATOL bonded travel.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 & affiliate marketing, ecommerce, and coaching courses that will enable me to generate more passive incomes, and allow me to look forward to a stress free lifestyle.
