Introducing our Unique Lady of the Month

Q & A with Nicola

Which Unique Ladies group(s) do you attend?

I attend Unique Ladies Ribble Valley as this is the group that I run as a franchise.

WHAT’S YOUR FAVOURITE…

…holiday destination?

I’m really torn on this one. I don’t have a favourite that I keep going back to as the world is such a big place, I like to explore different countries. New Zealand I found absolutely breath taking, from its stunning lakes and beaches to landing on Franz Josef Glacier in a helicopter. Annecy in France also has a special place in my heart, this is where I lived as a student whilst at university and felt very blessed to live in such a stunning town.

…food?

This has got to be Thai. Part of our honey moon was a week in Thailand and we fell in love with the food. So much so, that we did a Thai cooking course when we got back!

…music?

I’m a bit random when it comes to music. I love Oasis and REM, but then love a good boogie to Abba Gold!

…book?

Unique Lady Host for Ribble Valley & Tropic Ambassador

Nicola runs our Ribble Valley Unique Ladies group alongside her very busy role as an Ambassador for Tropic Skincare. Her background was predominantly in Sales and Customer service roles since graduating from University with a Business degree in French and Spanish. Her love for foreign languages gave her a fulfilling career until she decided to have a complete change and go self employed in 2015.

“I started working as an independent Sales Ambassador for Tropic Skincare and can honestly say I have never looked back. Tropic is an award winning 100% natural skincare company which is cruelty free, vegan and based in the UK. Leaving full time employment and a secure job with a very good package was an enormous step, but it has turned out to be the best decision! I absolutely love my work, the products and the people I meet on a daily basis.

I am a proud Mum of two and married to Jason and now have complete flexibility in my work which has helped enormously to restore my work/life balance. I attended a few Unique Ladies meetings and immediately felt so welcome and inspired and decided I wanted to be a permanent part of it.”

Men are from Mars, women are from Venus - ha,ha! How bad is that - the only book that springs to mind that I’ve read! There are others, but can’t think!!

Will you share an interesting fact about yourself?

I speak fluent French and Spanish and can get by in Italian and German. Languages have always been my passion.

What words of wisdom would you give your younger self? I would say just go for it and don’t hold back. Life’s too short to think “I wish!”

Obviously my family, but on a more practical level, mascara!! I always feel like I look tired without it and it’s my one make up staple I just have to have!
