About Me

Iโ€™m Sarah - and Iโ€™m interested in joy.

My main goal?
To live my best lifeโ€ฆ and inspire others to do the same.

๐ŸŒฟ Wellbeing & Happiness

After a period of very poor mental health, I became deeply curious about what it really means to be happy.

Iโ€™ve read many books, listened to some awesome podcasts, watched inspiring content, and trained as both a Life Coach and a Mental Health First Aider. Iโ€™ve also attended incredible events including Tony Robbinsโ€™ Unleash the Power Within and Fearne Cottonโ€™s Happy Place Festival.

For me, happiness isnโ€™t one big thing - itโ€™s a collection of small, intentional choices:

  • taking care of my physical and mental health

  • making space for rest and self-care

  • feeling connected to nature

  • practicing gratitude and mindfulness

  • balancing achievement with fun

So many of us are stuck on a hamster wheel - focused on work, responsibilities, or our phones - without ever stopping to ask:

What actually brings me joy?

This space is your gentle reminder to wake up, live consciously, and start creating a life that feels good. You can read more of my happiness thoughts here โ†’

โœจ Fun, Days Out & Travel

I truly believe life is meant to be enjoyed.

Sometimes that looks like a quiet afternoon in the garden with a blanket, snacks, and a good book. Other times, itโ€™s planning an epic road trip or exploring somewhere new.

I share my days out, mini breaks, and travels over on Instagram and in my travel blog - always with the aim of inspiring you to add a little more joy into your own life.

๐ŸŒ™ Magick

Iโ€™m drawn to the magic in life - the moon, crystals, oracle cards, the law of attraction, the power of nature...

My spiritual journey is always evolving, and I love sharing what Iโ€™m learning along the way. Read about my spiritual path here โ†’

๐Ÿ“š Books

Iโ€™m a bookworm - mostly romance and fantasy, but I enjoy a mix of genres including non-fiction.

I also spent several years as a romance author, writing seven novels and selling over 50,000 copies. While Iโ€™ve now โ€œretiredโ€ from that chapter, it will always be a special part of my story.

If you love books too, come and chat with me on Instagram ๐Ÿ“–

๐Ÿ’ผ Business Owner

In 2016, I started a business - now a growing Ltd company with a small team - Continual Improvement Ltd - we support organisations with ISO management systems, compliance, and best practice.

If youโ€™d told 2015-me that this would be my life, I honestly wouldnโ€™t have believed you.

๐Ÿ’› A few Personal Things

Iโ€™m a wife, stepmum, pawrent, daughter, sister, aunty, and friend.

Iโ€™m a fur-mum to an adorable golden retriever and an exceptionally good-looking cat ๐Ÿพ

I live in a Northamptonshire village with a countryside view.

Iโ€™m a Capricorn, and a Life Path Number 9 - the humanitarian.

Iโ€™m (almost always) vegan - though I tend to be vegetarian when travelling.

My happy place is Scotland. If it wasnโ€™t quite so far from the people I love, Iโ€™d move there in a heartbeat ๐Ÿด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
