Being a creature of habit, my day begins with my morning rituals. Meditation, expressing my intentions for the day and visualisation are key to my routine.I begin my workday by meeting with my team. They report on their progress and the critical tasks that need my attention.In the morning we focus on what we have planned and complete these tasks. The second half of the day is left to responding to emails, calls and any questions my team may have. I am also always looking to expand LUXit, even daily. This includes meeting with new artists and therapists, with the possibility of recruiting them. I have a passion for meeting people face-to-face and understanding their energy.Similar to morning, my night ritual involves expressing gratitude for everything in the day and listing the days achievements. I practice Dr. Dispenzas rewiring the brain and reconditioning practice.Tell us about your study and career journeyI studied law at Bond University, then went on to start my working life as a property and commercial lawyer.In 2004, amid the rise of technology-based businesses, I was appointed GM of Blink Online Dating, recognised for employing affiliate links and advertising ahead of the curve, and spearheading the us e of online database strategies which significantly expanded the companys reach.I then applied my proven strategic business talents to the fashion realm, where I served at different times as general manager for two of Australias most iconic designers, Camilla Australia, and Leona Edmiston.My latest business venture is LUXit - your beauty concierge an on-demand beauty, wellbeing, and lifestyle app.What did you want to be when you were younger?I was always fascinated by the freight industry its fundamental role and logistical aspects.
