I have not been working in the accounting and finance industry for long, and definitely not been in an office space before.

I have had 32 yrs in the hair and beauty industry with a sales background, I have spent 26 yrs raising boys and married for over 28.

I have decided that I want to develop my business skills and want to specialise in accounting to help others understand their financial situation and to be able to make smart choices with their business.

Recently I have had some big changes and learning how to navigate them in unfamiliar territory is so hard for me. I don't handle change well and I don't do stress at all, so being sick and tired is where my body stopped eating got grumpy and shut down.

I had 24 hrs from Saturday to Sunday where I stopped, I didn't work I didn't do hair I didn't study I was just Mum, my favourite job. The one I dreamed of since I got married, the one that gets me up every day, I smile I laugh and I cry. I love watching their journey as they stumble dust themselves off but go forward and challenge themselves again.

My why is building a financial freedom that will allow me to have a coffee and lunch with friends, go on a trip with the boys. Stay at a luxury resort because I can, gift my friends and family services and items because I know what it will do for them.

I am Stacey mum to 4 giants and a person who cares that when I meet you I make a difference, I leave a smile and a warm place in your heart.
