• March 2010

What three things could you not live without?

• My iPhone, my car and my passport (I take it my husband and kids are a given)

Can you cook, if so what’s your signature dish?

• Can’t cook

If you could go for dinner with a celebrity, dead or alive, who would it be and why?

• Oprah Winfrey – she had a huge impact on how I view things, books I’ve read, movies I’ve seen. She’s my ‘source’ inspiration.

If you weren’t in your current role what would you be doing?

• In another life I would have liked to have been some kind of investigator, or investment business analyst.

If you were invisible for a day what would you do?

• Eavesdrop on Donald Trump

If you could have any super power what would it be and why?

• An empath like Deanna Troy on Star Trek, it's just one down from reading minds which I think would drive you insane!

If I could have a ‘talent’ it would be?

• To sing like a diva (Aretha Franklin)

If you won the lottery, what is the first thing you would do?

• Call my adviser!!

What would you most like to tell your 13-year-old self?

• Keep on truckin’, it all works out great.

What is something you’ve never tried but want to?

• Rather than a ‘bucket list’ (things I want to do before I die) I created a ‘lotto list’ (things I want to do whilst I’m alive) I preferred the positive spin. I’ve had a list for about 15 years, and I am lucky enough to be working my way through it. So, something on my list that I haven’t done yet is to see the Northern Lights. I’ve tried a couple of times but with no such luck.

Where is the best place you’ve travelled to and why?

• I love travelling, one of my lotto list goals is to go to 80% of countries before I die, which means I try and go to 3 new countries a year. To pick one favourite place is tough so here are my picks in categories based on my travels to date.

  • Best cities - London and New York
  • Best quick break to de-stress - Villa D’Este, Lake Como, Italy
  • Best adventure - Vietnam
  • Best sunrise/sunset - Iceland
  • Best quick break at Christmas - Four Seasons George V in Paris  
  • Best long trip to de-stress - Petit St. Vincent Resort
  • Best sporting experience - Monaco Grand Prix
  • Best mind-blowing culture/history - Jerusalem

What are your four most overused words/phrases?

• Awesome

• Nice!

• In reality…

What is your greatest fear?

• Something bad happening to my son.

How do you define success?

• Personal fulfilment, work/life balance, money.
