About Me

CURRENT MISSION

To discover the world, one beautiful spot at a time

ABOUT ME

I'm a sports fanatic and love playing soccer (football). I own a company with my partner and am lucky enough to work from home - who needs a corporate company! I love the family life, love travelling, have a deep passion for snow and mountains (so all CS members in skiing areas, watch out!) and love new adventures.

I also love personal development, having seen the difference it has made in my life, I'm just bursting to share what I've learnt with the world!

PHILOSOPHY

I'm learning to take each moment as it comes and to live for that moment. The past doesn't exist, the future is unknown - all you have is right now, this very minute. There will never be another minute like it, ever again! Make the most of it :-)

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

Just one?
Plucked up the courage to resign from the safety of the corporate world and start my own company.

Teach, Learn, Share

Wow...where to start! Not because I know a lot, but because I'm interested in so much!

I have a solid knowledge of diamonds which I apply in my company and can assist CS members regarding purchases, advice, the whys and wherefores of diamonds and jewellery.

I'm currently hugely interested in personal development and am learning everything I can - from the Law of Attraction to how your mindset affects your wealth potential to the mind-body connection to NLP - the list goes on! Ask a question and I'll try to answer!
