I’m author of The Freelance Mum (published January 2019) and SHY (out April 2021).
Editor of digital parenting and lifestyle platform The Early Hour.
And I work as a freelance journalist for national news and women’s magazines (Guardian, Forbes, Grazia, Red Magazine, Stylist, Metro, Telegraph).
I also speak at live events and I’m a regular guest on BBC radio.
Lastly, I write online courses.
After the first one sold out in two days (teaching female freelancers and entrepreneurs how to do their own PR), I built a business around it.
It’s called The Robora.
There are various online courses, teaching others how to grow their online businesses, as well as one-to-one consultancy packages.
I wrote about the courses for Stylist and the Guardian and was interviewed about them for Sunday Times Style ‘Secrets of the Side Hustle‘ podcast.
I live with my husband and our three children in east London.
