If you've ever felt restless, irritated with your situation or down right bored stiff, you could look to my next Pink Expert for a bit of inspiration. Sarah Wyndham Lewis (the blonde lady below) doesn't like to stand still, neither is she terribly keen on 'cushy'. She'll tell you more in a second, but when her dog pulled her towards another dog and her owner in the park one day, fate stepped in and the rest is history...here she is!
1. What talent do you naturally have and how do you use it?
I have always had a very restless energy which I channel as a tremendous drive to succeed in whatever I do. I can't bear to think that I'm ever standing still in life, so I will always be looking to see how I can stir things up to induce positive change and measurable progress towards my goals. 'Cushy' just never seems to keep me happy for very long – I need the adrenaline rush of being up against new challenges.
2. When did you first realise that talent was going to help you and how do you use it?
I went freelance as a PR consultant and writer quite early in my career because it maintained that slight edge of danger – where I operate best. 20 years of freelancing showed me just how hard I can work and gave me the experience which has now come to fruition in Holly&Lil. Elaine, my business partner in Holly&Lil, brings her own very different skills to the business and we complement each other incredibly well.
