Welcome to my profile. My name is Lee Roche and I am an author and business woman. Please read on to learn a little bit more about me and what I am currently up to. Included in this profile is my husband Greg, we are currently and have always worked as a team. Since 1982 Greg and I have operated and owned our own business. Greg had an upholstery business and I have always done the clerical side of things. In 1997 I stepped in and did some of the manual stuff too!! 2005 we purchased the picture framing business and when Greg was diagnosed with cancer, we closed down the upholstery and I ran the picture framing business on my own. Once Greg had recovered from his treatment for cancer we opened a cleaning business called Invisible Angels and became incredibly popular amongst our clients for our attention to detail and hard working attitudes. During our stint cleaning we realized that there must be more to life than just working so we made some grand plans. We closed Invisible Angels and I started writing my first book which has just been released - for more info please visit www.circleoflife.co.nz to buy your ebook or hardback copy today - 10% of profit goes to St Johns! This book is about our journey through cancer, Greg's journey in fact, and I wrote it to help people through this ordeal which is becoming all too common. We had an awful diagnosis and were practically abandoned by the medical profession. So with nothing left to lose we began researching and trying alternative treatments. By focusing on the 'what you put in is what you get out' theory, practicing meditation and using some wonderful supplements we began to make progress. Greg had one goal and stuck to it - he wanted to be cured and I was going to help him. The book is an expanded version of what happened and I truly believe it can help other people come through this terrible dis-ease. My goal is to connect with people touched by cancer and if I make a difference to just one life I will be happy. As part of our new life's I am writing some children's books and Greg is hoping to study law. We are real life example that no matter what someone tells you if you don't want to accept it you don't have to. As for our other grand plans we have just got back from a 4 week dream holiday in Greece and now have plans to travel in Australia. I am looking forward to connecting to people here on Ecademy and thank you for reading my profile. Please send me a message and then I can check out your profile too! Regards Lee Roche & Greg Roche

I was a qualified careers adviser who one day decided to take my own advice and change my career! Whilst studying to become a Master practitioner of Neuro Linguistic Programming I became interested in personal growth and the power of the mind. I went on to make my own dreams come true, using many of the techniques outlined in my latest book, Follow Your Dream. I am now a successful executive coach and life coach and have my own thriving training and development business - check out my website www.people-developers.com

I have a client list that includes major companies in the private and public sector, as well as private individuals.

I have had four books published, including The Which? Guide to Choosing a Career (1998). As well as editing various government careers publications, I have also written for the BBC Learning Zone and was the Editorial Consultant for Sky's Reach for the Sky magazine. I write articles on an occasional basis for various business publications, the most recent being Fenman's Train the Trainer.

I think of myself as a professional "Jack of all Trades" as I've done almost every job one can think of - consultant, event manager, cleaner, voice overs, dancer, dance teacher, waitress, writer, sales trainer for real estate professionals... etc

I currently work full time as a consultant in the social responsibility leadership field and often collaborate with others on writing projects or seminars aimed at personal development. I love writing about dating, health, money and property. I'm passionate about helping people change their view about what's possible in their lives.

Before I moved to the UK, I worked in my native Australia in children's entertainment for six years, appearing on stage and television with characters from Warner Bros, Nickelodeon, The Simpsons and during the Sydney 2000 Olympics with the official Olympic Mascots; Syd, Millie and Ollie.

I live in London with my partner Mark and my two giant furry cats Bruno and Leo.
