At the End of August

Can you believe that it is the end of another month??

I feel like sometimes I fall asleep and wake up a week later missing days in between 😂
What about you? But I admit I have been doing lots of interesting things and really enjoying myself which is important and it will soon be SPRING!!

So August for me started in Melbourne looking after my Niece and Nephew for a few days. It was a really lovely time with them, we learnt lots about each other and had lots of fun, at the end as I was not used to living with a 1 and 4 year old I was exhausted but so happy I was able to do it. There is a lot to be said for having your own business! On the final Saturday in Melbourne, my sister Lauren and I were able to have lunch and go see Aladdin. What a glittering spectacle that was and such a pleasure to see such a favourite film of mine come to life on stage.

After that week the dreaded lurgy that everyone seems to have caught this winter got me. And really it has taken the rest of the month to get better but other than a couple of days it has not really stopped me 😊 Lots of Mary Kay Classes, Theatre Makeup Classes, new singing students, a day on a film, rehearsals and auditions have kept me busy.

I am excited to have been offered the role of Princess Fiona in Shrek the Musical which is coming in January next year. This should be a great fun role and a chance to do a more comedic role which I have wanted to do for a while. So keep your eyes open for that!

Last week Olivia and I were the backing vocals for Jack Gatto and his Elvis show. It was such a great night of music and a lot of fun. So many songs but we are enjoying really extending our repertoire and even just going with some songs we didn't know 😅 Jack has a fantastic voice and is a great performer and the band (whom we know) they are fabulous. Add to that excited fans and you have a great night.



I really feel that so much is happening at the moment and I am so grateful to God for his provision and for the opportunities he is bringing to me. I am excited for what could be and look forward everyday to Him using me in a different way.

In September, I go into Qualification for Directorship with Mary Kay and am so looking forward to completing that and stepping up in the company. It has blessed me so much and so many other women. I want to help women be the best they can be and this is a beautiful way to do it!

At the end of September, Soul Factor is back with a Broadway Show!!! Its been a couple of years since we have done that and of course almost a year since we performed since we had a break. So get your tickets!! It is going to a fabulous night with a focus on songs by Cole Porter. So grab your friends, family, kids and come along. There are two shows on Saturday 30 September and October 1st. Click here for more info.


So have an amazing week and see you in September.

A Dream is a wish your heart makes....

A dream is a wish you heart makes... Do you have a dream? something that you want your life to be? or somewhere you want to go? Are you reaching for it? I have had a dream to be a Mary Kay Director since I joined the company 10 years ago and this month I took a huge step to achieving this. On October 1st I entered into DIQ or Director in Qualification, I now have 4 months to become a Director. I am very excited about this, the timing seemed right and when I do it I will be able to do just Mary Kay and Singing which will be perfect! It is rather scary though because there is a lot of work to be done in those four months, I have to build my team and reach certain production goals and sometimes it seems crazy, but that's the idea of moving up isn't it? taking a leap of faith? So why Directorship you ask? I understand leadership is not for everyone but I have always been drawn to it. I do have a passion for helping women feel good about themselves and I believe that we are...

Turkish and Other Delights! Part Two...

And so the story of the trip continues here Part One can be found here ! So we arrived in Istanbul on Tuesday 21st April 2015 and as I said in the previous post we were struck by how many people there were and how crazy the driving was but luckily we were picked up by our tour company, Travelshop Turkey. We did make it to our hotel, The Green Park Hotel, safely and this hotel seemed quite nice. We did find it weird we didnt know anything about our start time in the morning or anything else from our tour but the guy at the desk did say that they were rather unorganised and not to worry, he'd let us know. Dancers on the boat Our first experience began that night began with a Bosphorus River and Dinner Cruise (to be honest we didn't quite know what to expect), people had said that it was great to cruise on the Bosphorus and see Istanbul from the water. Well we got picked up along with some others we didn't know and headed to our boat. Well this night was an experience!...

2018 Celebration!!

2018 has really been an amazing year.  When I look back on what I've actually done this year it is actually quite crazy but I've enjoyed every minute of it.  There have been times of difficulty and real stress when things didn't go to plan but God has blessed me so abundantly and really allowed me to use my gifts to share with people and to create a life that is really full of joy. So at the beginning of this year, I actually said I was gonna have a quieter year and that turned out to not be true in the slightest. But it has been amazing!  So this year, I have done Oklahoma on a Farm twice, played Princess Fiona in an SA Premiere of Shrek (plus learned to tap dance), done a Bee Gee's Tribute with my sisters, climbed aboard a Pirate Ship many times, been a Siamese Twin in SideShow the Musical, been an Ice & Fire Queen, learnt and performed many Elvis songs, sang on a Cruise Ship,  sang on the radio 4 times, perfomed in concerts, gigs, dinne...
