It’s never too late to start again ✨
My pathway to Applewood Wellness wasn’t straightforward — so here’s a little snapshot 🤍
I didn’t start out in wellness.
I wanted to be a vet nurse 🐾
But it turns out I’m absolutely terrified of creatures smaller than a guinea pig 😅
After three years of college and a summer with no work, I was told:
“Get a job and be paid.”
So I did.
I worked in admin — solicitors, call centres, virtual assistance… and eventually a labelling company.
It’s no secret I’ve struggled with my mental health — feeling lost, unsure, and not really knowing who I was.
Then I got married and had my daughter 🤍
Not because those things magically fix everything — they don’t — becoming a mum brought a whole new world of worry 🥴
But now I had my own little family, and I grew to trust them, and they supported me.
Next came wedding hire 💐
A safe move when your husband already co-owns a marquee company… or so I thought!
Covid hit — and everything stopped.
During lockdown I felt a strong pull to help, so I began making and handing out period poverty boxes for women in need ❤️
I sensed that I was being nudged toward something more meaningful.
And that’s when everything changed.
My wellness journey began — starting with my own mental health, learning more about myself, studying, and eventually building a small business rooted in massage and mindfulness ✨
Now I truly feel like I’m making a difference.
Most days, I love my job.
The constant push for bookings and growth can be tough — but the fulfilment always outweighs it.
I love meeting women.
I love seeing their progress, or simply watching them pause and slow down 🤍
It fits our family life.
It feels aligned.
Not perfect.
But finally… mine ✨
It’s never too late to begin a new path 🤍
