I have always been someone who takes on too much. It turns out that trying to do a Conservatoire-level music course, while planning a wedding, trying to run a fine jewellery business and doing a very demanding job while dealing with some health issues is a bit much for one person - who knew?!

In late 2018 I burned out completely. I was signed off work for three months and told to rest or risk doing long-term damage to my health. My doctor also made it clear that I needed to make some major lifestyle changes or this would keep happening.
