My 40+ years of experience in risk, planning, research, management and training have brought me to the happiest place I’ve been.

In no small way because as a bored, unappreciated, undervalued employee, oh and a single parent wanting to be a positive role model.

I stepped up. Committed to my future. Took action. I researched alternative career paths. Invested and studied for my degree whilst still working full time in the corporate world.

It’s not all been plain sailing but believe me, if I can do this, so can you!

No More Excuses! What's stopping you?

Get in touch! Let's get you started on the journey towards a new exciting world of opportunities, and maybe a whole new book in print! 

Life is not a straight path. It winds, it gets muddy and hilly and can send us down paths we might now want to go down. You get the idea.

But luck is waiting around that next corner. As the old saying preaches for good reason, you won't find out if you don't try.

Help luck get a foothold, pick it up, run with it. Chuck all those cliches in the ring and fight like heck for your dreams.

Midlife isn't a crisis, it's your time to thrive.

My life has changed beyond recognition, but only because I took that first step, then another, then another. I trusted myself.

What's holding you back? Let's work out a plan to defeat those doubt monsters and reboot your inner creative.

I’m a Yorkshire woman, over 60 and a rebellious grandmother.

I truly love my work, at last. It wasn't always that way. Employers have written me off because of the number on my birth certificate. But I turned rejection into motivation.

Writer, blogger, fiction author, motivator, creativity coach, eco advocate, travel addict (on hold right now) and multi-passionate 'squirrel.'

Constant learning and challenging myself, and others, to live life to the full are my passions.

I’m a storyteller. I write short stories, children’s books, mystery, thriller and YA novels, even erotica and romance (in various pen names).

Whilst bringing up my family, as a single mum, and working full time, I completed a BA Hons in Literature. Yes, I'm super proud of that.

I encourage others to pursue their dreams and celebrate all achievements with a brew (tea, of course, I'm from Yorkshire, it's the law)!
