Decadence for Divas!
"No road is long with good company"
The aim of my blog is not to dazzle with academic teachings, high-brow topics of discussions or to be in the running for some literary prize (this is never going to happen!). These are simply my thoughts and "ramblings" as they come to me during my daily life; nothing more, and of course, my love of books, books.....and more books!

About Me
- Vanessa
- Seville, Spain
- What qualifies me to call myself an entrepreneur? Well, I will tell you. I am originally from the UK, but now live in Seville, Spain. I trained as a Criminal Psychologist (don't ask!).I then "fell into" the HR/ Management Consultancy industry (by accident) and "fell-out" of the industry in 2001, frazzled and disillusioned. I re-trained in the UK and USA in something I thought was more inspiring and positive, and now run my successful career coaching practise from sunny Spain; helping others do what I did, which was to follow my passion and not my pension. I have coached clients from all over the world; from the UK, Spain and Dubai to a tiny island off the coast of New Zealand. I also own a successful business with my husband working with some of the biggest multi-nationals based in Spain. And I also have my "own baby"; an on-line jewellery boutique specialising in Riviera-inspired designs with customers from all over the globe. I write for numerous publications including the largest English language newspaper in Spain, and review books for various authors.
More about me:
1) I never say no to going to the beach
2) I was born in London, married in Maui (a Hawaiian island) and now live in Spain
3) Can spend hours cooking (and eating!)
4) I have a passion for books
5) Fav fruit-raspberries
6) I hate shopping; I even order my weekly groceries via the internet
7) On the other hand my husband loves food shopping
8) I wish I could- buy a small property on Maui island
9) Favourite Flower-Poppy
10) Indulgences-too many to mention, but lets start with Ben & Jerry's ice-cream
11) People least likely to invite for dinner- anyone from the UK government, any footballers WAGS (wives and girlfriends), George Bush
12) People I would love to invite to dinner-President Obama, Oprah, Donald Trump, Richard Branson and of course my absolute favourite (being British) Simon Cowell.
13) Never leave home without-my mobile and a MAC lipstick
14) Always on my iPod- Michael Bublè, anything by Motown, anything from the 70's, Abraham-Hicks, The Very Best of Smooth Jazz.
15) Favourite TV programmes: Greys Anatomy, Private Practise, The Mentalist, Lie to Me and Glee!
16) I never read womens glossy magazines
17) My mum was a huge Beatles fan; hence my second name is Michelle (could have been worse; could have been Eleanor Rigby!!!)
18) Worst habits-I forget to tighten the lids of anything and find it hard to relax; everything is time-managed to the micro-second!
19) A secret-I met Princess Diana twice.
20)Best advice given to me- If you have the choice of being right or being kind......... be kind.
