I turned 24 this weekend 🎂
This has been the least ‘birthday-feeling’ birthday I’ve had in years.
Maybe it’s because I’m not a kid anymore, but instead of 'cake and candles', it gave me a rare pause to properly think about where I’ve been - and where I want to go next (the useful kind, not just the cliché kind).
I started in estate agency at 19 - wet behind the ears, leaving college, working in my dad’s chippy, and plotting to work for a luxury brand like Fine & Country. I applied for an admin assistant role with no real industry experience, just a strong work ethic and a willingness to learn.
A huge thank you to Nicola Wright for seeing potential in me early on, and to the colleagues I worked alongside once I got my foot in the door - I learnt more from that environment than I probably realised at the time.
From there, I focused on learning as much as I could and creating opportunities for myself - often stepping into things before I felt fully ready. Fast forward to today, and I’m now a self-employed partner agent, working for myself at 24.
Was I ready when I made the jump?
Honestly… no.
But I don’t think we’re ever truly ready for the things that matter most.
The next chapter feels exciting and a little daunting. I still battle with imposter syndrome from time to time, but I lead with optimism, work hard, and stay keen to learn - trusting that things tend to work out when you show up consistently.
I’m incredibly grateful for the support of my friends and family, and I’m trying to be more intentional this year about growth, gratitude, and going after what I want. ✨
So - if you’re thinking of buying, selling or renting in Warwickshire and the surrounding areas, I’d love to work with you. Drop me a message 📩
Here’s to uncomfortable growth, backing yourself, and whatever comes next. 🚀
P.S. Big shoutout to my AI assistant for helping me write this post - because apparently I need help even when reflecting on myself.
