Q. What do you love about what you do?

There'ss so many things I love about what I do. I love opening my customers eyes about simple, wholesome nutrition. My food has minimal ingredients with no hidden unnecessary ingredients which always pleasantly surprises them when they try it & it actually tastes good. I love that I am mobile, I'm able to move from suburb to suburb & meet all types of people. I especially love my current location because customers bring their dogs & babies down to the park which I can't help but have a smile on my face! I love the different people I meet daily, hearing their stories & talking about our past experiences. We are complete strangers yet we end up sharing such personal things about ourselves. There's something really special about it.

Q. What's the number one value or motto you live by?

Everything happens for a reason'. No matter be it good or bad, I

believe every movement, every decision, every life event has a purpose

in our future. Sometimes those reasons appear instantly & you have that

'ah huh' moment, others may take a while leaving you questioning

yourself. Because I believe in this it motivates me to keep moving

forward & never wonder 'why me'. There is always a lesson to be learnt

from any situation.

Q.When you're having a hump day, how do you turn your frown upsidE down?

There are a lot of moments while working such a physical & time-consuming

job that I often find myself falling into a rut. I recognise that

it's just a frame of mind & remind myself straight away of how fortunate

I am, of how far I've come & I think back to where I was a year ago &

instantly my mood changes. If this fails, a cuddle with my dog works

pretty well!!

Q. If you could give your younger self one piece of advice what would it be?

I would say to keep doing what you're doing. Like I said, everything

happens for a reason. Every decision I previously made led me to where

I am today. I love the life I live which I wouldn't have without my past

achievements, mistakes & paths chosen.

Q. Whats your number one life lesson you've learned?

Being a true Virgo, I love to be super organised & plan everything to

the last detail. This is one of my best attributes but also one of my

biggest downfalls. With owning & operating your own business comes

knowing not everything will go as planned.You have to be able to think

on the spot & change plans spur of the moment. At first, the idea of this

stressed me out but I quickly learnt if I want to be successful & most

importantly, happy & sane then I have to handle situations differently. I

no longer planA-Z but ratherA-C. Since then I have my stress in check

& can give my full attention to the present instead of worrying about the

future.
