Make 2020 the year you change your life

Stuck in a dead-end job that pays your mortgage but crushes your mojo? Frustrated about getting another year older but still no closer to following your dream? Want to change career but scared to take the plunge? Determined to turn a negative into a positive but looking for inspiration?

Celia Gaze was that person and she decided to do something about it. She said ‘goodbye’ to her life as a stressed-out NHS director and ‘hello’ to her new life running a quirky wedding venue, The Wellbeing Farm - complete with llamas in bow ties! And she celebrates the new decade releasing a book about her journey: Why Put a Bow Tie on a Llama?

As we kickstart 2020 with another New Year’s resolution, Celia will be taking part in a business lunch with a difference, where a collection of entrepreneurs will be sharing their personal stories of their life-changing moments and how and why they grabbed control of their destiny. 

There’s no cost, no hard-sell, just the promise or a great event chaired by award-winning journalist Chris Maguire.
