When you are made redundant, rather than going back into employment, you may want to try your hand at being self-employed. But running your own business can be so tough! In order to assess your life as a self-employed person, or avoid some of the pitfalls, I would recommend getting this book. Here is my review that I left on Amazon.
I won this book directly from Brad at The Business Show a few years ago, and just got around to reading it, when I needed to read it the most, as I have been struggling of late in both life and business – directly related! Being quirky, I am a huge fan of Brad and his quirky business methods. I love the fact it is written in his conversational, non-nonsense style and that he is completely himself. In this book, Brad asks you to ask yourself all of the hard questions that you often avoid acting upon, because of fear. I really liked the fact that there is exercises throughout the book to allow you to asses what you learnt about your own life and business from Brad’s own life and business experiences and lessons. He makes you think and find soul securing answers and face them head on. This is a great book to help you come unstuck and move forward with your own unique mission. Thanks Brad, for keeping it real and for another awesome book that speaks Braddism at its best!
When I saw Eddie The Eagle at the National Achievers Congress, his story was so inspiring, of how he travelled and ate out of bins to fulfil his British ski jumping dreams at the Calgary Winter Olympics and became a global icon with a movie made about how he did it. It was all down to the power of self belief, never giving up on your dreams and being determined to succeed against all odds.
ACHIEVING THE UNIMAGINED!! This weekend I will be at this NAC event with Tony Robbins, who is the World’s Leading Coach and Business Strategist. Tony changed my life in 2012, and I could not miss this opportunity to see him again. I will also be spreading awareness of Asexuality at the same time as my other businesses, hence the business cards below. I leave on a sleeper train at 1.06am Saturday morning and the event is a two day seminar of back-to-back entrepreneur speakers and I have a leisure day on Monday before returning home.
I love life and I love living which is a far cry from the depressed girl I used to be before I ’embraced my quirky’. I am far from where I would like to be financially but I am really happy that I am now following my dream of having my own ebook store rather than chasing money. Of course I have more up my sleeve than just that – I will be doing online training courses too. I have changed to focus more on digital products with my writing and upcoming training. If you are looking for a certain non-fiction book or a training course on something you need to know how to do – please let me know as I have a lot of knowledge and experience to give to the world.
If you are redundant and thinking of starting your own business to beat your blues, why not test the waters, by starting a blog on a relevant topic. That way you can see if there is a demand for what you want to do, and you can build a community of followers at the same time. What are you waiting for? Don’t delay, book today.

The last photo is of the book I won at last year’s, The Business Show.
When I saw Eddie The Eagle at the National Achievers Congress, his story was so inspiring, of how he travelled and ate out of bins to fulfil his British ski jumping dreams at the Calgary Winter Olympics and became a global icon with a movie made about how he did it. It was all down to the power of self belief, never giving up on your dreams and being determined to succeed against all odds.
