About me

Hi there! I’m Mimi, citizen of the world currently living in London, UK. I have been working in Business Development for almost 15 years and also have a passion for personal development.

As a regular blog reader, I had long been thinking of creating my own but never took that first step, until now. This blog is a way of me sharing some nuggets of wisdom (hard lessons learned and funny anecdotes) with young adults transitioning from university to the professional world, but also with anyone interested in reading on that nine to 5 life from my perspective. My first post explains it all.

Enjoy and comment!
