’ve always wanted a family, but also knew I was going to have to work hard at achieving a life/ work balance, as I don’t think I’ll ever be ready to hang up my entrepreneurial hat. Having achieved my own business goals with a multi-million pound business empire, I am now determined to help as many other women achieve their own. Whether it be earning enough working for themselves with young children to raise, or owning a business turning over millions, I can help. As a mother to two gorgeous young children (Zachary, 6 and Isabella, 1) whilst running six limited companies, I champion novice entrepreneurs and women in business, along with nurturing children with an entrepreneurial drive. I began my career as a mortgage adviser, had started a multi-million pound property portfolio by the age of 18, and opened my own brokerage in 2005. After building my own successful property portfolio, I was inspired to do the same for my clients, and I launched IMS Property Group in 2008, providing a bespoke property solution from lettings, to estate agency, property refurbishment, development and finance.

with no silver spoon and I love nothing more than seeing other women do the same. So after much development, The Empowering Entrepreneur was born. It’s an all-round business growth service, providing support from online business courses, to 1-2-1 mentoring. My first online course, How to Start a Business, launched recently. At £97, it provides all the information you need to start a business, in 10 easy to digest modules, with videos and worksheets. It’s perfect for anyone looking to make the leap but overwhelmed with the processes involved. I provide mentoring packages at a wide range of costs, aimed at those looking to level-up their business, and really maximise their potential. I have also recently launched a charity – The Empowering Entrepreneur Children’s Enterprise, which provides financial and mentoring support to children and teenagers across the country with a business goal of any kind. I regularly talk at schools and universities, with the aim of helping them believe anything really is possible. To find out more, please visit
