Last September I was in Paris for work. This time was extra special to me as I was taking my mum on her first ever trip to Europe. First France, then Italy- and the Vatican! Her dream come true. But that is a story for another day ;)April to August were actually a big blur for me.

When people first hear what I do, itβs common for them to say, βPersonal Brand doesnβt matter for meβ. They think that itβs only for famous people, high flyers or big corporations and that as an individual or small business owner it plays no part in their journey. But hereβs the thing - everyone has a Personal Brand - the stay at home mum, the corporate lawyer, the admin person β¦.absolutely everyone.

Confession: I have had a bag of clothes waiting to be altered for 3 years...to the point that I completely forgot about what I had there. It was only when I sold my other car that I found it. The good thing was that it was like finding new clothes.
