As an entrepreneur who also juggles multiple jobs (lecturer, course coordinator, writer, speaker, mum, wife), you might think I have boundless energy or otherwise, a whole lot of paid help.

I don’t. In fact, in 2007 after too much hard work in all the wrong ways, I crashed and burned, was eventually diagnosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, and spent two years not even able to wash my own hair.

It was a hard, but valuable teacher, and my nervous system is forever changed. I now work with intention, and rest with intention - to stay well and to experience the joy of impactful work I love, and a family who thrives. 

As the mother and main carer of two school-aged daughters, I completed my doctorate in education full time whilst also working full time.

To manage all of my responsibilities I developed a keen research interest in organisational psychology - which is concerned with the psychological principles that motivate people to do their jobs better and faster.

I applied the science to my own situation, and now teach this way of being, and working, to other multi passionate working mothers.

Finally, as an expert in English education, I know that when children have strong foundations in literacy, they experience academic success in all areas, gain access to graduate-level education, and can participate fully in society. I know what matters and what doesn’t, and I teach parents how to set up simple systems, and supercharge the every-day events of family life, to give their children the best chance of success.
