BIG DECISIONS & NEW BEGINNINGS

Over the past few weeks I've neglected my blog rather a lot. I didn't plan to do this but as we all know sometimes life just gets in the way. At the beginning of September my boyfriend & I went away, in the run up to this holiday I was exhausted and felt like I had spent the whole Summer in work, including all weekend, every weekend. It began to affect my happiness, my health and most of all my life, I had no social life and definitely didn't have that very important work - life balance. 

As some of you may know I work as a Spa Therapist but earlier this year I discovered that I had an allergy to 3 main preservative ingredients, which was the reason for the severe dermatitis I constantly had on my hands & arms. This put a halt to my career and meant I physically couldn't do it. So since then I've had a huge decision to make, I could have stayed within the Hotel/Spa industry, or make a leap and find a new career for myself. 

I used our holiday as a time to think and make a decision once and for all, I took absolutely everything into consideration and made what I feel like is the best decision I've ever made - to take a leap and find a new career! When we returned from our holiday my mission began, after a short while I was called for an interview which resulted in me getting the job - success!! 

This decision was possibly the hardest I've ever had to make as the Spa industry is where my career dreams lay, but since finding out about my allergy my career plan was thrown out the window and it all went down hill. I'm a firm believer of everything happens for a reason and I do think that this is a blessing in disguise. I'm looking forward to the future and am exited for a new chapter in my life. 

I have lots of posts planned for the next few weeks so thank you for sticking with me! 

Lots of love
