Best Life Transition:

Changing from being a Deputy Head Teacher and Class Teacher for 22 years to a Parenting Expert, Writer, Broadcaster, Speaker and Author of “Raising Happy Children for Dummies” and the Parenting Made Easy CDS and iPhone and iPad App.

Most Challenging Life Transition:

Building up my reputation and getting known for being an expert in my field. It took a long time, a lot of effort and I found it very challenging. I also found going from a regular salary to being an entrepreneur extremely stressful at first!

Best Advice You Received During a Life Transition:

Surround yourself with positive friends, mentors who can empower you and go to work on developing your own skills to keep learning and growing.

Most Important Lesson Learned from a Life Transition:

I can do it!

Best Way to Think about Life Transitions:

Change is often enormously frightening but it is also enormously exciting – it depends on YOUR mindset, attitude and beliefs around it. So write down your goals, visualise the end result constantly and take small steps every day, every week and every month towards them. Keep the faith that this too shall pass and learn the lessons from your experiences and walk towards a bright new future that YOU create.

What Makes Life Transitions Easier for You:

Listening to my inspirational CDs on my ipod, meditating daily, reading books that keep me upbeat and motivated and going on courses like Date With Destiny with Tony Robbins. Also, surrounding myself with like–minded, positive people who lift my spirit.
