🌈🕊️🤍

I have typed and retyped this caption about 20 x but I can't quite get my words out..

But what I can say is Josie I am so grateful you came into James life, I can't wait to grow old with you and do all sister things.🤍.

James you are the best big brother & my god Dad would be so fricken proud of you for carrying on your wedding day like a champ🤍 I know some people probably thought it should have been cancelled but we all know Dad would have hated that.

I know both Papa Menon & Mama Scotchmer would be so fricken proud of you both 💔🤍🕊️.

Seeing the rainbow at your wedding during and after the ceremony was something I will cherish forever 🌈🌈🌈

Papa, I miss you so much 🤍🕊️🌈 taken in Villa Catignano by @so.ph.ie1

Fly High Papa 🕊️

Still in absolute shock & something I will never understand 💔😭

You were my first best friend and the first person to show me how to treat people with kindness. You wasn’t just my Dad, you were my hero, my guide & my constant. You taught us all our love for travelling and I blame you for always wanting to go on another adventure 🌍. You taught us all so much & I honestly don't know what I will do without you here earth side, we still had so many plans together, it was only the night before you flew to Italy we were finalising our annual Dad & Daughter trip away, something we started when I was 11 years old😭 some say I would have been lucky to have you for 34 years but we both know that would never been enough for all the adventures we had planned 😭💔

For those that knew my Dad personally, knew what a legend he was. He was always the first person at any event and he lit up every room he entered 🤍 He spent his whole life helping others & I know he was so loved by so many people. Our Dad was always the person we would always call if ever in need as he seemed to have the answer to everything especially anything medical. Your heart was so pure Papa 😭💔🤍

James, Chris & I, our world has turned upside down but Mum's universe has turned upside down 😭💔 I promise you, we will take great care of Mum and look after one another. You blessed me with the best brothers about, that I know for sure.

Papa, you were the absolute best Pop to Xenia 🤍She absolutely adored you & keeps asking where you are, at first I said you were sleeping but she insisted we woke you up as that one of her favourite games to do with you. She loved waking you up when we stayed over or you stayed over at ours. I have now told her you have gone on adventure, she doesn't understand but I promise to keep showing her all the photos and videos of you both together so she never forgets 💔😭

Sleep well Papa. I miss you so incredibly much. It's not a goodbye, it's a see you soon 💔😭🤍

Someone once said ⬇️

"Sophie, would you sit on a one legged chair" & if the answer is no then why are you relying on one stream of income and it's really stuck with me. We are taught to believe that one income stream and a 9-5 is safe but let's be honest, is it actually? I've personally been made redundant twice and both times I had no idea it was about to happen. Luckily I have had this to fall back on.

Is building a business hard? For sure

Are there days where I have felt like giving up? Absolutely

Is it an overnight success? Hell no

But what this opportunity can do for you is something no other industry can offer 🤞🏽

I work this around a full time job at the moment, another online business & being a mama & the beauty of it is it fits around YOU and your commitments and not the other way around. ✨

I believe in the vision of this so much and Im so excited to see where it takes me and everyone else who is involved / getting involved. The Travel industry is a multi billion pound industry and it's not going anywhere so talk about momentum!

If your tired of relying on one stream of income & living paycheque to paycheque. Then we need to chat! 👀 taken in Agora Beach - Greek Koyzina Beach Bar by @so.ph.ie1

One whole year. 💔🪽🤍

365 days since I got the call that changed my life forever.

365 days of messaging you, voice noting you, sending you things I know you’d have laughed at… and you not replying.

We’ve had birthdays, Christmas, Father’s Day and everything in between. So many "celebrations", so many moments, so many “firsts” without you. And at every single one, you have been the first thing on my mind 💔😭

There have been so many times I’ve wanted to pick up the phone and tell you something, only to remember I can’t 💔

I honestly can’t believe it’s been a whole year, Papa. A whole year without seeing your name pop up on my phone or getting one of your messages 😭

If only I could rewind back to 366 days & give you one last hug.

I miss you, Papa. More than you’ll ever know 😭🤍🪽

For now, keep sending me signs & one day we will be reunited.

Hard to put into words what this girl means to me. 🤍

When I first joined this business, we were complete strangers. I had no idea that saying yes would lead me to not only a mentor, but one of the most incredible people in my corner.

For those who don’t know her story… she started this alongside a full-time corporate job and £25k of debt. Fast forward to now, and she earns £250k a year. 🤯 something that only big CEOS make in their corporate role.

But the numbers aren’t the best part.

She’s my mentor, my cheerleader, my supporter and sometimes… my therapist 😂. She backs us all, believes in us, pushes us and genuinely wants every single person around her to WIN.

She celebrates your wins like they’re her own and reminds you what you’re capable of when you forget.

I’m so grateful this business didn’t just bring me an opportunity… it brought me HER. 🫶🏼

Here’s to everything we’re building and all the people we’re going to help along the way. ✨ taken in Orlando, Florida by @so.ph.ie1

The most magical day with my little girl. ✨🏰🤍

I don’t think I could ever put yesterday into words. ✨

It was the most magical day. Watching Xenia’s face light up, seeing her excitement and experiencing that Disney magic through her eyes filled my heart with so much joy. 🥹🏰✨

But amongst all the happiness, there was a moment I found myself crying too. Happy tears? Sad tears? Mixture of both for sure 🤣😭🤍.

Because seeing her experience something that gave me some of my happiest childhood memories brought it all flooding back & more than anything, I just wanted to speak to my Papa. To tell him I was here, at Disney World, with his granddaughter to tell him about all the magic she was experiencing.

I know he was there in his own way 🪽🤍

Yesterday was everything I could have wished for and more.

Making these memories with my little girl is something I’ll treasure forever. taken in Magic Kingdom by @so.ph.ie1

A little reintroduction… because life has changed A LOT, and if you’re new here, you probably deserve a little context. 🤍

Hi, I’m Sophie 👋🏼

I’m a twin, a girl mama to a very lively 3.5 year-old, and a dog mama to my 10.5 year-old Yorkie. 🐾

I’m also a full-time EA, whilst running an amazing online business that fits around my already very busy life.

And a fun little fact about my business… I’ve actually gone on to create a willable income for my daughter, meaning that should anything ever happen to me, she can continue to benefit from the income I’ve built. 🤍 One of the biggest reasons I do what I do & I love showing people how they can do the same 🫶🏽

But life isn’t just business, travel and Instagram posts.

Last year, my personal life took a massive 360.
I lost my beautiful Dad. 💔 Miss you so much Papa.

And I’ve started getting the question, “What happened?”
The truth is… nothing happened.
He simply didn’t wake up.
And honestly, I’m still trying to process that sentence, let alone everything that comes with it.

Then, just when we were trying to navigate life without him, my beautiful Mum was diagnosed with stage 4 lymphoma. 💔
Thankfully, it is curable, and we’re holding onto that with everything we have. 🤍

So yes… my life is a little bit all over the shop.

There’s motherhood, work, business, grief, family, laughter, chaos, travel, and everything in between.

And I guess that’s what this space is going to be.

The weird and wonderful journey that is my life. ✨

So if you’re new here, welcome.

And if you’ve been here for a while, thank you for sticking around through all the highs, lows, plot twists and everything in between. 🫶🏼

This is me. This is my life. taken in The Crazy Bear, Beaconsfield by @so.ph.ie1
