About Me

I am a fun loving, fashion junkie with a dose of wanderlust. Mother to one daughter, and step mother to two. Curious by nature, and always exploring. I use fitness to keep me sane, and I am passionate about encouraging mums to choose the right kind of postnatal fitness.

  • Wishing a very happy birthday and wonderful year ahead to my very talented step- daughter Chela. This past year she has transformed so much and suddenly unearthed her amazing musical ability and taught herself to play the piano, guitar, sing and write songs - all exceptionally well. I am super proud of her and excited for her next year of discovery.. #aquarius #aquarian ##giftedandtalented #artist #creative #aquariangirl #musiclover #birthdaygirl #mother #motherofdaughters #stepmum #stepmomlife #stepmom #stepmumlife #stepdaughter xx
  • Toodles hanging out with her big sister, my step-daughter Chela. They both suddenly seem so grown up! It’s not easy making time just to hang out, with the dynamics of our house in constant transition. The girls are to and from ours to their mums, the oldest is now at college and working, they all have school, activities, clubs and social lives (as do we try to in between theirs..) There is of course work, life and everything in between, so these moment are so very precious XX #preciousmoments #preciousmemories #moments #sisters #mama #mother #motherofdaughters #beautifulday #outdoors #freshair #sunshine #happiness #stepmom #stepmum #stepmomlife #stepmumlife x

  • I dream of being a master of light, a light engineer or specialise in architectural lighting design... not sure what the official term would be but to be able through light to reimagine space and structure and the understand the emotions and effects that this creates would be extraordinary! I might go a play with my torch right now.. xx #lightislife #light #illuminate #shadow #silhouette #wherethereislightthereisshadow #tatemodern #london #motherdaughter #explore #create #design #imagine #wonder @studioolafureliasson x

  • It’s taken me a while to post this as I’ve been busy reminiscing on my stories! What a decade! Moved cities,several houses, met Dan, had Teddie, acquired two step daughters, managed to navigate my way into the world of graphic design. None of these things planned, but very much part of my destiny. After a whirlwind 10 years, It’s nice to at last have the space to reflect on who I was at 30 (ish) and what I wanted at that time, and indeed who I have become and where that might take me. It’s very easy to loose sight of yourself as a parent, step-parent, life partner and business partner and the longer you take to reassume your own identity the more difficult I think it can become. It’s certainly taken me longer than I imagined to gather myself after the trauma of having a child who was unwell for so long. That in itself becomes so consuming and such a priority that it’s easy to make it your sole purpose, and suddenly it defines you. We had a little hiccup and small reminder of how fragile she is pre-Christmas, but I am less wobbled and more confident that she is so much stronger and resilient now. So onwards and upwards for 2020!!! All that said and done what would be the 3 key things I have learned this decade that I would pass onto Toodles: 1. Always march to the beat of your own drum. People will want you to march to theirs, it makes them feel comfortable, but you are not here to create comfort, you are here to make a difference. 2. Trust your intuition. Instinct, gut feeling, sixth sense - call it what you will. Learn to trust it/ that part of yourself that cannot follow conscious reasoning. I cannot tell you how grateful I am to have learned to follow it despite those around me and my conscience telling me otherwise. There are just some events in life to which logic cannot be applied (says the Myers Briggs Logician 😊) 3. Protect your personal energy at all costs. Be honest about that or those that nourish you or don’t. Steer clear of the latter! #newyear #2020 #newdecade #lifelessons #amomenttoreflect #notforlong #dontlookback
  • Wishing you all a very Merry Christmas 🤗❤️🎄🙏🏼 xxx #christmas #merrychristmas #christmasday #love #loveandlight #christmaswishes xx
