[spp-player]
Dee is The Motivational VA. Starting her career in the Recruitment Industry, but now predominantly works as a VA, Podcaster and Blogger. With a side order of networking and events on the side. Miss Make It Happen was started after someone realised her potential as a problem solver. These things came natural to Dee but she hadn't spotted it herself. In her spare time she likes to travel the country meeting new people, travel the world seeing new places, pushing herself to the limit both mentally and physically, eating bacon, skating, building forts and trying to stay out of hospital. Dee is the type of person to learn everything the hard way and "I probably deserved it" will be going on her headstone.
