About Me
Iโm Sarah - and Iโm interested in joy.
My main goal?
To live my best lifeโฆ and inspire others to do the same.
๐ฟ Wellbeing & Happiness
After a period of very poor mental health, I became deeply curious about what it really means to be happy.
Iโve read many books, listened to some awesome podcasts, watched inspiring content, and trained as both a Life Coach and a Mental Health First Aider. Iโve also attended incredible events including Tony Robbinsโ Unleash the Power Within and Fearne Cottonโs Happy Place Festival.
For me, happiness isnโt one big thing - itโs 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
โจ 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, itโs 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.
๐ Magick
Iโm 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 Iโm learning along the way. Read about my spiritual path here โ
๐ Books
Iโm 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 Iโve now โretiredโ from that chapter, it will always be a special part of my story.

๐ผ 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 youโd told 2015-me that this would be my life, I honestly wouldnโt have believed you.
๐ A few Personal Things
Iโm a wife, stepmum, pawrent, daughter, sister, aunty, and friend.
Iโm a fur-mum to an adorable golden retriever and an exceptionally good-looking cat ๐พ
I live in a Northamptonshire village with a countryside view.
Iโm a Capricorn, and a Life Path Number 9 - the humanitarian.
Iโm (almost always) vegan - though I tend to be vegetarian when travelling.
My happy place is Scotland. If it wasnโt quite so far from the people I love, Iโd move there in a heartbeat ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ
