Helen knows what it is like to run a business whilst having life-changing curve balls thrown in the way. In June 2021 she was given a shocking diagnosis  of Stage 3 Triple Negative Breast Cancer after a routine mammogram.  A rare and aggressive form of breast cancer for which immediate treatment was needed. Helen endured 16 rounds of intense chemotherapy over a period of 21 weeks.  Most sessions were weekly.  She gained weight, lost all of her hair and the ability to do more than slowly move off the couch.

During this time Helen managed to keep her businesses going with help from other business chums when she really was not well enough to show up.  She focused on her Commit to Achieve Principles to get her through it and finally, after a mastectomy in February 2022 her oncologist announced she was cancer free.  Vowing to live life to the full,  Helen is enjoying having even more holidays abroad and travels in her camper van.  Her business model allowed her to keep  working and she is proud to say she never lost her fighting spirit or smile.  Warrior mode is perhaps a principle she could add to her Commit to Achieve Principles? Look out for her book  "Agnes, Bea, Cancer and Me" which is available on Amazon with 5 star reviews.

Helen has a degree in Osteopathic Medicine. She retired from being an Osteopath in 2020 as she wanted her work to be predominately online so that she could travel more.   During her time working, she successfully set up two clinics.  The second clinic she opened was a large multi-healthcare centre with a large team.  Helen gained experience of building businesses from scratch to managing staff and team members.  The clinic was awarded UK Cam Expo Clinic of the Year on more than one occasion.  During her time as an Osteopath, Helen also worked on the Investigating Committee for the General Osteopathic Council.

Helen qualified as a lecturer not long after her graduation as an Osteopath.  The team saw her potential, so it wasn't long before she was teaching and moving into management roles.   In that time, Helen lectured in the UK and internationally.  She also moved into External Examiner, Moderator and Subject Expert roles. She worked for a variety of UK establishments as well as degree courses in Ireland, Italy and Belgium.  Helen worked in her clinic and lectured part-time for many years.  This experience of being a business owner and educator meant her role as Business Mentor was a natural progression.  Helen prides herself on making learning easy to understand and time-saving to get the best outcomes.  

Helen has been a business mentor for the last 6 years, ever since those around her kept asking how she built and ran her business.  As a mentor she was initially frustrated when she realised that giving people a bank of marketing ideas was not enough.  There was something else that was missing.  Why didn't business owners  take the action that would get them success?  It took her own business coach at that time to point out to Helen that she did more than just learn marketing methods. Over time, Helen worked out five main principles: a framework that she instinctively used. Every principle was essential to the path of success and she was amazed by the results once she shared her Commit to Achieve Principles. Helen has a thriving business group called the HBClub, a high level Mastermind called HBInspired and a business stationery subscription box called the HBbox.  Helen also does bespoke boxes for high-level entrepreneurs and regularly runs business retreats on the coast. Helen is a published author and you can find her books on Amazon "Ive got your back, the essential guide to marketing your therapy business" and "Agnes, Bea, Cancer and Me"
