I am looking for inspirational people who have turned their lives around. I am a bipolar single mother to 4 young dc. My youngest is starting nursery this year so I am ready to get back to work. As I have taken 10 years out to raise my family I have had 0 job offers after applying for hundreds of jobs. I have decided to start my own business and am opening a bathroom showroom soon !! I'm going into partnership with a joiner and have a wealth of sales experience. I am sick of getting by just on benefits and am determined to turn my life around and be a good example to my dc. I would also love to hear any inspirational stories.

This year I’m at a Top 10 University in a STEM subject.
