Tell us a little about yourself...
Moved to Morecambe from Hertfordshire in June 2017
Why did you start your business
A coach helped me change my life after redundancy from a very stressful job, I wanted to do the same for other people and help them re-discover their innate wellbeing
What is your role within your business ?
Chief cook and bottle washer!
Where are you based ?
Morecambe but have clients locally and across the UK
What most excites you about your work?
I love seeing people grow and develop, living a happier life, with less stress and anxiety. Very excited to be starting two new ventures in the autumn. When Women Speak, a group for women to share their hopes, dreams and experience. And My Mental Health Rocks - hosting workshops within every school across the UK, promoting wellbeing, resilience and raising awareness of our innate mental health.
Describe your best day in business so far.
The day a stranger said to me “Oh! You’re Penny from The Corner House! I follow all your posts!” It was a turning point
What has been your biggest business challenge to date?
Starting a new business in a new area where I did not know many people. I needn’t have worried, Morecambe is the friendliest place!
If you had to go on a desert island for a month - name the 4 items you would take
The stack of books by my bed that I have not had time to read (is that cheating?)
An Ipod loaded with all my favourite music,
Paper and pens to get on with the book I have started writing
A bottle of my doTERRA Frankincense essential oil
What do you love most about the bay area?
The people, the views, the sunsets. The buzz on a sunny day on Morecambe promenade
Your one piece of advice to fellow business owners?
Be passionate and persevere
Pet peeves...
I cannot bear people being unkind or cruel.
