University; now this was a surprise, I had a terrible time at school - not achieving great results, lots of upheaval in my life meant I didn’t feel I could succeed. However I proved to be a determined and able young woman! During this time I discovered I have been living with Dyslexia and Scotopic Sensitivity, both challenging and difficult to surmount especially when an unknown. I believe in a roundabout way I started an enquiry into self care and finding and understanding of what wellbeing means to me.
