What inspires you?

My vision. I have always had such a clear vision of what I want to achieve and this inspires me daily to keep showing up and working towards my goals in both my business and personal life. As well as looking forwards, I always remember to look back to celebrate how far I have come. It is important for me to remember that the things I have now are what a younger version of myself wished for.

What does your day usually look like?

I’m detail oriented so will try to keep this brief! I wake up around 7am, make coffee and bring it back to bed where I journal and write out my to-do list for the day (I am a big fan of time blocking). As a founder, every day looks different but will typically be made up of 1:1 client sessions, client check-ins, meeting my operations manager, creating social content and planning podcast episodes. I try to mix days up between working ‘in’ the business and ‘on’ the business as they require different types of energy! I will try to do some sort of movement during the way whether that is rolling out my pilates mat in between clients or going for a walk or run. Every evening I unwind by cooking, putting my phone away and spending quality time with my partner.

What is your daily non-negotiable?

Using my journal every morning and evening, it is a game changer in terms of my mood and motivation.

3 wellness tips/habits you swear by

1. Journalling (I know I keep repeating this but I am authentic to my brand and it really comes with so many benefits).
2. Breathwork (the fastest way to regulate your nervous system if you are feeling anxious).
3. Listening to a podcast (an inspirational podcast episode is such a mood booster!)

What is your favourite cuisine?

This is so close between Italian and Greek… because I love pizza so much I will have to choose Italian.

Your favourite DK meal?

This again is a hard one but if I have to choose then the teriyaki salmon with brown rice, the sauce is just so good (!) Dish or recipe you make most often? I know where my skills lie and that is in helping people not cooking but a staple recipe that I have cooked for years and never get bored of is mediterranean roasted vegetables with feta.

Death row dinner?

An antipasti board to start with lots of warm bread. A goats cheese and caramelized onion pizza, side of truffle and parmesan chips for my main. Followed by my mum’s white chocolate and brioche pudding. I’m salivating as I am writing this. What is your favourite form of movement? I am firmly in my pilates era and loving it.

What is your favourite quote or mantra?

We tend to always expect the worse so I flip this on its head - What if it goes even better than expected?
