Photo of Juliette I've always considered myself as 'kinda average', others have argued... but there's one thing I know for certain... life's thrown me some curved balls and through the experiences I've had, I've defined myself to become the person I am today – pioneering and enterprising with a passion to support women who are under represented and possibly disadvantaged; encouraging them to consider new horizons and empowering them to take down barriers which so often get in the way for all of us.

I reflect back to my journey and the so called 'good ol' times', fast cars, holidays, Harrow on the Hill apartment, but strangely and more fondly, on the relative more recent years, where my journey took me through; debt, being an unsupported lone parent, domestic violence - leading to hospitalisation, drink, 3 children; to... a wonderful husband, a beautiful home, a business women and parenting - 8 children! (My three, Pete's three and Pete's sisters' 2 children, following her death). Not exactly what I'd put in my plan... but none the less a journey I celebrate everyday. If it hadn't been for all of this, I wouldn't be the person I am now, have the confident broad minded, go getting children I have or, run the business I do.

Apart from my family; my world revolves around my business - Women's Wisdom which is an independent, not for profit, social enterprise working with hard to reach and vulnerable people to enable them to take control of their own situations and make informed decisions that will positively impact their situation. We work with all people from the homeless, drug and alcohol users, offenders, victims of domestic violence, lone parents – to name but a few.

I don't claim to be a national figurehead; but I don't believe I need to be either. Being inspirational is about being humble and at times vulnerable. Being inspirational is about being an appropriate role model at a local level, reaching out to the people that need it most, motivating them through support and encouragement to be the people that they really want to be. I've worked hard, and we celebrate the fact that we re a flagship organisation and that I've recently been nominated for a Queen's Award for what we do. It's nice to be recognised, but at the end of the day, the satisfaction of enabling someone to move out of now and into their future, makes all the hard work worth while.
