You may remember I have been working on a startup concept (including a book)* for women since becoming pregnant and having my son abroad in the UK. I was freelancing away, growing a baby and waddling along the streets of North West London, happily posting Instagram snaps of flowers in winter, coloured doorways, cute bikesContinue reading “The reason why I want to empower women”

What am I writing about?
The major life milestones you face in your 20s and 30s: financial literacy and lessons learned from my expat adventures over the past decade.
I’m writing a book
I’ve been remote working from Europe for the past few years and travelling around, blogging and posting photos to Instagram as I went.

There’s always been: something different (sometimes greater); someone else; or some surprise… …waiting in the wings. A wise woman I once worked with held firm her belief: “A good no is better than aContinue reading “When one door closes”

We are, in fact, expecting our first baby in London at the end of June (so soon!) but during this time I have had plentyContinue reading “Celebrating Mother’s Day”
Growing up: change is good
I haven’t written in over three months. It hasn’t been due to a lack of desire, inspiration or motivation. It hasn’t been due to a lack of wifi, technology or experiences.
