GET TO KNOW ME & THE TEAM
Hi, I'm Sian -
Travel Agent & Mentor
I'm 27 years young, from Milton Keynes and I am currently saving for a house with my partner (exciting times to come!!). I absolutely LOVE visiting and exploring new places and there is so much more I'm still dying to see!
​
Something you should know about me, is that I have been working a 9-5 in the corporate world since 2017 and I have always felt like I've never quite fit in. No matter which office job I find, I always seem to feel burnt out and with no end of stress (as an eczema sufferer, this soon shows on my skin!).​
​
I'll be honest, I was sat on the fence for about four months before I finally decided to ask for more information. So I attended an in-person information meet up and I was absolutely hooked! I signed up and became a business owner in August 2024 and became apart of the most amazing team, Life Begins with Travel!
​
So what was it that sold this to me? The opportunity for financial, time and location freedom. Imagine being able to earn from anywhere at anytime and never have to work for someone else ever again?​
​
With the systems and knowledge I have in place, I have loved helping my clients find their dreamy getaways and helping my team achieve the successes they so rightly deserve and most importantly, living life on their own terms!
​
This is only the beginning of my journey & I cannot wait to see what this year has instore!
​
THE TEAM
Meet some of the Life Begins team, the team which I joined in August 2024! A team which has welcomed over 200 agents and I can hand on heart say that I have never met a more supportive community of men and women, all chasing after the same dream - Financial, time and location freedom!
