About Me:

My life purpose is to 'share what I know to help others to grow' and I have been doing just this through my writing (books and articles), teaching, keynote speaking and consultancy for about 20 years, I guess. I 'know' about writing, publishing and running a portable business based on what I love to do. You see, I am married to a man who works in the oil industry and we have been overseas (now in our fifth country) since the day after we got married in 1987. Luckily, my passion for writing has become the perfect portable career, or 'career in my suitcase'. I am an expat entrepreneur. All my books have grown out of something I have done for myself - networking, finding my passion, being an entrepreneur and of course, writing.

My clients, friends and readers say I am both inspiring and empowering. That is what I hope to achieve in everything I do.

I now live in The Hague, with Ian and our boys, Sam (16) and Josh (14), a cat (Lily) and about six electric guitars, a drum kit, piano, PA system and a huge poster of the crowd at a Metallica concert on the wall! Like me, the men in my life know what they love to do too!
