If you asked me as a 5-year-old, a 10-year-old or even a 20-year-old you would have heard one of three answers; vet, school teacher, cafe owner. Not in a million years would I have thought I would be a General Manager for an agency. And I definitely would not have thought I would have found myself in this role at 22-years-old.
I have had a full on couple of months and I imagine I am not alone. So this week I thought I would ditch the serious stuff, pour myself a glass of wine and share 20 facts about me that many probably don’t know. Are you scared? I am!
Today I finally returned First, We Make The Beast Beautiful by Sarah Wilson to my local library. I am not joking when I say I am 100% expecting a $50 late fee from the library.

The most frequent questions I am asked all revolve around the same subject… What does my week look like? How do I fit it all in? Don’t I ever get tired? How do I make time for XYZ? How do I manage my schedule? Something that has really helped me to get sh*t done is by ‘leaning in’ to tasks as the time or motivation suits.
Just a little over three months ago I finished reading The Barefoot Investor and my finances have been busy ticking away in the background. Now that I have found, trialed and settled into a new money system that works for me and aligns with how I want to manage my finances I thought it was a good time to share my three simple money rules with you!
Jamie Oliver; the man, the myth, the brand. Whether you love him, hate him or have never watched his shows – you can’t say you have never heard of him. The ‘Jamie Oliver’ brand has always interested me because well… if you can make yourself a worldwide household-name you are probably doing something right. This led me to read The Unauthorised Guide To Doing Business The Jamie Oliver Way by Trevor Clawson
