Do what you love what you do

Do what you love what you do.

I have spent over 30 years of my life in awe of people who knew what they wanted to do with their lives. Even as a child, I had friendships with people who always knew they wanted to be a doctor, a teacher, a pilot, a musician. They all achieved their dreams. They all do what they love and love what they do.

It took me until last year to work out what I wanted to do and it’s true - it does change your life when you do what you love and love what you do!

I feel like my whole life and all that has gone right and all that has gone wrong has led me to this as I have learnt lessons along the journey and been taught some amazing skills in my work life which are coming in super handy today.

If like me, you have spent years trying to work out what you want to do with your life, I would encourage you to take some time out each day. The change within me started when I decided to start a journal. I used an online application and each day I spent a few minutes writing down what I had done that day that I had loved and what I still wanted to do which I hadn’t yet. Those few minutes each day changed the course that I was on and now I Do What I love, and I Love What I do.

My name's Emma. I've been living gluten-free for over 25 years, and I've been dairy-free for over five years.

Health and Auto-immune Diseases

I have auto-immune diseases and expected to be on medicine for the rest of my life, but I didn't want to live like that. My rheumatology Doctor was so supportive of the change I wanted to make, and with their help, I now manage my auto-immune diseases by being strict with my diet.

It can be quite frightening when you first find out you have to change the way you eat but for some of us' Food is our medicine.'

I have several websites, write blogs, and I'm currently in the process of writing a book.

I trained to be Holistic Health Coach, Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher and Certified Gluten Free Practitioner in order to heal myself, my family and others who find themselves on the same journey as myself.

Photography

Our love for photography started on our travels. We wanted to capture images of the areas we travelled to both for our own records and for our family back at home. Some of these images were reproduced as watercolours. Our favourite images we display at home and friends often asked where we had purchased the pictures! Now you can purchase them online directly from us.

Coaching and Consultancy

Previously an IT Manager my skill set has come in very handy as I am both a Health Coach and also offer consultancy for small business starts up and fellow Health Coaches. This has included building websites and online profiles.

Our Family

Family is everything to me! We have a family of four boys where the age difference between the youngest and the eldest is 18 years. Two of our sons are also Gluten Free and Dairy Free. Emma is a Health Coach who specialises in helping individuals and families achieve their health and wellness goals. Ian runs his own business which began developing a Race Timer for diecast model cars.
