In the world of entrepreneurship, more and more businesses seem to start directly at home. After all, why should you need an office when some business concepts can work perfectly from the comfort of your own home? This is especially relevant if you have a big house and love being a host. The hospitality industry, and more exactly the Bed & Breakfast approach, is a booming sector that has the potential to attract customers all year long – assuming you live in the right area. Needless to say that a B&B in London will always be more popular than a B&B in the Lake District, but it’s primarily because cities…

You know me, I’m all about pushing for people to do those things they love. Life is too short to have a job you hate, and although right now I’m not making a penny off the book I’m writing, I feel rewarded knowing I’m doing something I love. Today I have a start up guide to running a small food business. I’ll be honest, when I went through my cake baking phase, I did consider this. However it was short lived as I hate washing up, but I could have taken it to the next level for sure! Getting started in running a small food business, be it a kiosk,…

Have you ever bought a gorgeous ring only to get home and realise it doesn’t fit? Yep, that has happened to me an most frustratingly it usually happens on holiday where I can’t get back to exchange the ring for my correct size.

However if you’re buying the ring for an engagement, dragging your other half into a store to have their finger measured it a sure fire way to give it away. Together with AC Silver, retailers of antique jewellery, we can advise you on how to…

One of the many reasons why my daughter’s father was no good for us was even after promising the health visitor he’d quit smoking as soon as she’d gone he tell me he had no intention to. I pleaded with him knowing how harmful it was to our baby but in his head passive smoking wasn’t going to cause any harm, how wrong he was. Keeping your kids healthy and happy is a sharing concern to every parent. There’s nothing more satisfying than watching your kids growing up healthy and strong, and parents can move mountains to achieve it. But sometimes, we do things that seem unharmful, when the reality…

One of the hardest things to stick to as a busy woman is routine. Routine dictates so much of our time at work and with the family, that personal routines can be the one thing we rebel against. It’s not that we don’t want to stick to braiding our hair before bed, it’s just that skipping a couple of things means longer sleep. Your beauty routine should be a habit and if it isn’t it’s time to make it one.
