1.  How did you get started writing? Writing has been a favorite activity of mine since I was 9 years old. I had a teacher who allowed me to write and write and write and often my stories would be pages long. This instilled in me an absolute love of writing – that this teacher gave me the freedom to express myself though the written word was truly blissful for my 9 year old mind. And it hasn’t stopped! I now write articles for magazines, I blog, write poems to my family, and I keep a journal, plus the chapter I have written for the upcoming book Overcomers Inc.

2.  What do you do when you are not writing? When I’m not writing I run a Personal Development Coaching company that specializes in: • Raising women’s awareness of the strategies they need to create Unlimited Abundance In Money, Relationship & Health in their lives. • I help women attract what they want into their lives by showing them how to translate their intentions into actions. • I teach, guide, and support those who want to lead a joyous and prosperous life as they integrate the Law of Attraction with practical and spiritual techniques so they can connect with their own natural power resulting in a life they love with measurable results!

3. What would readers like to know about you? To answer this question, it's probably best that I share with you my "compelling story" that brought me to where I am today.

The defining moment in my life happened over a course of time but it was in 2004 that my life started to take a new turn and I had a feeling in my heart that there was something more to life.

I have always been a naturally optimistic person, always with a smile on my face with a way to take advantage and turn any situation into a positive one. My life always had an uncanny way of being a success and everything always fell into place, almost as if I was born with a magic wand in my hand. I seemed to be the person everyone turned to when they needed lifting up, a friendly ear or some good old fashioned advice. I was gifted with the mindset that everything in life happens for a reason and was always blessed with the understanding that there is a lesson or opportunity in every situation in life.

When my husband was struck with a bout of depression in the Summer of 2004, almost overnight my life turned upside down, and I was presented with a decision – to accept this as an opportunity or to turn my back to the lesson. Suddenly I was thrown into the responsibility of solely running the business we owned together and I embraced the opportunity head on.

I was so eager to get my teeth into something and find my purpose in life, the one that I felt like I was losing sight of. So I hired a business coach to help me with the business re-structuring and within 9 months had won a business award, put new systems and procedures in place and hired a team to accommodate the changes. In the meantime, over a 2.5 year period, my marriage was failing and once again I had a choice to make – to stay and live a life that no longer made me happy, or to take the biggest leap of faith and walk away from my 16 year marriage. It was then I realised that I was not fulfilled, that the way I was living my life was no longer enough, and I felt so sure there was more to life, that I finally plucked up the courage to listen to my Soul and walk away. The next awakening came when reality struck and I realised it was up to me to get my new life together. For 20 years I had relied on someone else to help make decisions, look after investments, be the main breadwinner. Now it was up to me. But I had no idea what I wanted to do. In fact for at least 6 months I had no clue! What I did know was that I wasn’t going to turn my hand to just anything, even though I was being offered jobs at every turn. Finally here was a chance for me to do exactly what I wanted. To do what I felt passionate about. To do what fulfilled my purpose. To discover what I was put on this planet to do. So I attended every workshop, and seminar, read every self-help book, watched every empowering session of Oprah I could and even travelled the globe in search of the answers. Through all my research and soul-searching I gratefully stumbled across Life Coaching and The Law of Attraction Training Centre in 2006, just after I read ‘The Secret.’ Finally here was something that truly inspired me. The day I signed up to do the training; I could hardly sleep with excitement! My years of teaching had taught me patience, understanding, meeting people’s needs and had fuelled my desire to help people. My years running the business had taught me the importance of systems and structures in a business for it to be successful, and building relationships. And my years of listening, supporting, and encouraging others was all going to be put to its ultimate purpose – to be a Coach inspiring people through transformational change. But I wouldn’t have found this path, without the heartache that happened along the way. I wouldn’t have realised my true calling if life had been easy or without struggle during that period of my life. 4. What inspired you to be a contributing author in Overcomers, Inc., I knew I had a story in me that needed to be shared. After what I had been through, I knew it was a gift that I had overcome it so gracefully and it could inspire people to realise that despite it all they can be the best they can be, drawing out the potential of who they are, enriching them to create lives they had only ever dreamed of. 5. Why is the topic of Overcoming important to you? I had begun to see the way my life operated and how I could overcome any obstacle or bend in the road that came my way and I knew I had something that could help others overcome their own life’s dramas. For years I have followed a very precise system as I learned to use the Natural Laws of the Universe to its full advantage. My ‘magic wand’ was being put to good use and suddenly I realised that I had a way of doing things, a way of existing that was very different from the people around me. I could and still can, manifest anything, including my wonderful partner, a gorgeous home, a loving relationship with my 2 beautiful children and an amicable friendship with my former husband not to mention a flow of abundance, a career I absolutely LOVE and the best health and fitness I’ve had in in my life. It’s proof we can overcome anything! 6. Why are you specially qualified to write about this topic? I literally love my life. And now I enthusiastically inspire others to do the same using the tools, techniques and methods I have learnt and applied in my own life. I have applied all the principles I consistently use in my life and have put it into a format that others can easily apply. With hand on heart I can honestly say I live a life that is truly wealthy and abundant and take great pleasure in walking the journey of encouraging others to do the same. 7. How many books have you written? This is my first venture into being a published book author, although I do write for a magazine as their contributing writer. 8. How do you manage to keep yourself focused and on track when you’re writing a book? I recently went to a talk about writing your book and he spoke about the important of diligence and focus. He writes a book in 50 days, 1000 words at a time. And each day he proofs those 100 words so that by the end of the 50 days, it’s already proofed. That makes great sense! 9. Do you write to make money, for the love of writing or both? I write because I have a message to share. It thrills me that others benefit from my written word. If I can touch just one heart and change one person’s life that day, then I have done what I set out to do. And getting paid for it is the icing on the cake! 10. What makes you proud about your involvement with Overcomers, Inc.? It is a great privilege to be associated with this book. Love You Life Publishing are so wonderful to work with and they have done an amazing job of involving all the authors’. It’s also a very satisfying result to have a book with your name in it! As a Coach and Motivational Speaker, it gives me a certain credibility which is another bonus. And connecting with the other like-minded souls has been a wonderful journey too. 11. Will you write more books? Absolutely! In fact I am in the process of compiling the notes of my journal over the past few years and will be making it into the story of how I went from surviving to thriving. 12. What do you have in the works now? Since my passage of self- discovery I've worked with scores of private clients, spoken and taught in front of groups, written articles, co-authored in a book about to be released called ‘Overcomers Inc,’ spoken on radio shows and am now in the process of creating ‘The Soul Wealth-ness System’™; a Home Study Guide involving 7 key steps for every woman who is feeling stuck or confused with their lives and knows that there is a way of tapping into the Power of her Soul, that there is something more to life, and she is ready to be enriched and enlightened to create a life she loves. The steps are designed to remind you what you intuitively already know in your life – that you are capable of manifesting greatness in your life. The Home Study Guide will transform the fear in your heart into clarity and confidence to take action, to reinvent the life of your desires, to live the life you love and start creating Wealth and Abundance with ease, joy and grace. 13. What does the future hold for you and your books? I’d like to see the books I go on to write to be a platform for my career, in that they will help many people all over the globe and give them hope, uplift them and give them a path to journey down. 14. What makes this a book that other people MUST read and WHY? ‘Overcomers Inc’ is a fabulous compilation book of 36 author’s stories of hope, courage and inspiration. There is a story in there for everyone.

What sparks your creativity? Any tips to help others spark their own creativity? Keeping a journal is a great way to tap into the creative spirit that lives inside you. Sometimes you can write the most profound things if you would just sit down and allow yourself the time to write. So many people don’t allow themselves that time, but if you only would, you might be quite surprised what’s inside you. 17. What do you think motivates people to become authors? What motivated you to get into this unusual industry? We all have a story to tell. Usually there has been a mistake or an upheaval in your life and you have learnt from it. It’s that learning that is invaluable to write about. To think that your story could be someone else’s, and to know that you may help that person by sharing your learning’s, is a great achievement. 18. If a potential reader thinks that your book wouldn't interest them, what would you say to convince them to buy? I'm thinking something better than "Its the greatest book ever."
