As you know the last month has been fairly challenging for me, I missed a month.
Now I’m able to lift my head up, I’ve realised that I’ve got back into my comfort zone, and that’s no good when you’ve got goals to achieve. Is it?
During May I did everything people asked of me. I ticked things off my lists, and felt good doing it. But I felt that I wasn’t achieving anything. I was, but I didn’t FEEL like I was.
As I’m updating my goals, after a motivational session with Emma Wimhurst, as part of her BOOM! programme, I realise that I HAVE to take steps out of my comfort zone and into that risky area to be able to move forward.

When I first started bras4mums my ambition was to have bra fitters across the UK to be able to offer a home fitting service to pregnant women and new mums. Why? Well, the business started when I had a toddler and a new born baby, and I really couldn’t figure out how to go to a shop to get a bra fitting with a toddler and a pram. I was also horrified with the bra fitting advice and information that I was given during my pregnancies – virtually nothing, and some of it totally wrong. (more…)
