I’m thoroughly passionate about people, and that has fuelled my journey from a spa therapist, travelling whilst working on luxury cruise ships, to spa management which spans the 24 years thus far in my career.

​

Having worked overseas for half of my life ( I lived in Dubai for 13 years and worked a prior 4 years on luxury cruise liners ), it enabled me to work with multi cultural people, and understand how different cultures operate. It also gave me the gift of seeing through a different set of eyes. This is invaluable, and working outside of your home country should be a must for everyone at some point in their life!

​

Shaping the future of future therapists and managers is an honour. This drives me daily to carve out a difference, and lead by example.

​

Currently I direct a boutique luxury spa in Suffolk, Weavers’ House Spa. Tucked away in the stunning historical town of Lavenham, the spa is solely focussed on well-being, and giving a giant invisible hug, to our guests. Spa-aaahing is personal, and so are we!

​

When I’m not working in spa, I’m guest blogging for my clients, or finding inspo for my own blog.

 

Living in Suffolk is something of a surprise as it was never my intention, but to be honest neither was Dubai. Life blows you in different directions if you are willing to let it.

 

Throughout my career I’ve been writing. Whether it’s for a magazine, a website, a press release, a spa treatment menu, a new concept or even an advert, it’s always me and I’m always writing. Words, oh magnificent words, evoking feeling, communicating and describing an experience... there’s nothing like it, apart from the experience itself!

 

With a vested interest in mental well-being, supporting the local community, along with the wellness community on a larger scale, my blogs have come alive. Finally now I find myself charged to make a difference, to speak up and speak out to inspire others to do the same.

 

I’ve created this hub to tie my work together in a giant bow, for you, the reader to understand what I do and why I do it. This is personal, this is me, both the professional and the person all rolled into one.

 

Whatever blew you in my direction today, thank you for reading, and if you think I could help you, then get in touch.
