Career-wise, what would you say drives you?
I’ve always been driven and a perfectionist. Once I put all my effort into something, I can’t let it fail, it’s never an option. I have met so many lovely and loyal customers through Instagram who make it easy to carry on when things get tough. I always think ‘I haven’t come this far to only come this far.

Do you have an inspirational woman that has inspired you?
I’d have to say my mum. She’s always been such a positive person which has 100% rubbed off on me. She’s also ran her own business since I was a baby and works so hard to make it successful, seeing her do something she loves and see it pay-off gave me the push to do it too!
What does self-care mean for you?
I’m such an active person and look after my physical health every day at work, but it’s about doing small things that make me happy too.. making sure I spend time with my friends and finding time to switch off from exercise and let myself chill out.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
I’d say, ‘go for it’ and don’t waste time thinking ‘what if’. Making the decision to start my own PT career was the scariest, but most rewarding thing I’ve ever done. I was so worried it wouldn’t pay-off, but it’s been the best 3 years of my career!
Career-wise, what would you say drives you?
It has to be my clients! Seeing the change in not just their physical appearance, but their mental attitude towards health and exercise is amazing. I just love being a part of their journey and helping them achieve their goals.

Do you have an inspirational woman that has inspired you?
My Mum is definitely my biggest inspiration in my life - she’s a powerhouse. She’s always been the hardest working person I know. My goal in life is to be at least half the women that she is.
What does self-care mean for you?
To me, self-care is listening to yourself, and what your body needs. Sometimes self-care is going for a long walk and getting fresh air. Sometimes it’s sitting in bed all day watching Legally Blonde. It’s definitely not one size fits all.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
There’s so much I’d love to say to my younger self (especially regarding my terrible makeup at the time!) but the main advice I’d give to me is to stop caring so much what everyone else thinks and focus on my own goals and happiness.
Career-wise, what would you say drives you?
I’ve always been my biggest competition, and that’s definitely my main driving force in work. I want to look back at my work from a month ago and see improvement, and I want that improvement to be consistent.
There are so many incredibly inspiring women in the beauty industry, it’s hard not to be motivated when you’re surrounded by the best!

Do you have an inspirational woman that has inspired you?
Most girls will say this but 100% my mum. Such an amazing woman that I will forever look up to. She’s the most selfless, kind, caring person and will do anything for anyone, if I can be half the mum to my daughter as she’s been to me then I’m doing amazing!
What does self-care mean for you?
Making time for myself, even though I find this hard as I’m a mum and don’t get much free time, but keeping on top of my health and fitness definitely keeps me feeling good about myself.
What advice would you give to your younger self?
You come across some special friends in your life, hold onto them! One of my biggest regrets is letting friendships fade. Step outside your comfort zone more, don’t be afraid to try new things. Believe in yourself more, being self-employed is hard and has it’s ups and downs and the beauty industry can be competitive but at the same time it’s one of the most positive and supportive industries.
Career-wise, what would you say drives you?
Making myself and my family proud is at the top. To show my little girl that you can do anything you put your mind to, run your own business and have a career that isn’t just to pay bills, it’s something you’re really passionate about! I want her to have the best life possible, so this always makes me want to push more! I also love making my clients feel amazing about themselves, it is honestly the best feeling.
