Do What You Love!

Happy Monday everyone:)

Sorry it's took me a while to get back into the swing of things as I've been overloaded with work since I got back from the amazing dowhatyouloveforlife retreat

So I finally started to upload some of the photos I took at the retreat & it's brought back so many happy memories. I met so many fantastic & inspirational people there & I'm so happy that I got to be a part of it. There was a great buzz at the retreat & a lovely atmosphere too; it was relaxing but at the same time very busy as we got to hear so many inspirational stories & also take part in some fantastic workshops & creative enterprise sessions.

I was honored to be asked to speak at the event also. I was very nervous before my presentation but I loved it & everyone was very kind & lovely! So thank you xx

I have so much to share about the wonderful retreat, so I'm going to write a fair few blog posts about all the events & artists & individuals I met there.

Here are a few words to sum it up:

AMAZING, LOVELY, CALMING, FRIENDLY, WARM, STUNNING, RELAXING, BEAUTIFUL, INSPIRATIONAL, CREATIVE & WOW!!!!! :)

So I'd highly recommend booking next years http://dowhatyouloveforlife.com/retreat/
