While travelling and working in different countries, Janet avidly studied people and their behaviour. This propelled her to explore what lies beneath everyone’s individuality, and why some people are happy with very little and others miserable in paradise. Janet was never drawn to conventional studies in this field sensing that these can limit the potentials of this type of work. Since early childhood, Janet’s life has been an adventure, mostly fabulous but with its fair share of challenges – those times of course (!) generating the greatest learning and growth. Janet has two children and lives in NSW with her partner. Janet’s research over 20 years led her to the conclusion that the inner workings of life are staggeringly simple and that it comes down to one single key: we create what we think. Janet has followed alternate paths in her quest to understand life, including quantum physics, neuroplasticity, the link between brain-body-emotions, NLP Practitioner, (Neuro-Linguistic Programming), Taoism, Masters of the Far East, Eckankar, nutrition and so on.   Solving the Mystery of a Happy Life   Janet is passionate about sharing this knowledge with others, to share with them the solution to the mystery of a happy life. This will remove the confusion many people face, liberate them into optimism and happiness, and help them see life as an exciting adventure filled with possibility. Janet is the eternal optimist; she has an open mind, a natural curiosity and a desire to become greater. She enjoys questioning and breaking through traditional barriers such as the dos and don’ts of society. Janet opts for street-smart ways of learning and has allowed possibilities from all fields as mentioned above as well as information from channeled beings, soul travel studies, American Indian and Yogi Philosophies. Janet practices what she teaches and actively chooses paths that resonate with her even if they are challenging. She takes the plunge and applies what she learns to gain a more complete understanding, and to better understand others.  Strength in a Unique Combination  Janet’s strengths lie in a unique combination. She has an ability to be objective, to see the bigger picture.  Her strong analytical skills from her I.T. background direct her to the root of an issue, she then draws on her techniques for handling life to tie it all in for an effective solution. This means Janet’s writing tackles common confusions and frustrations, transforming them into a simple formula for getting what we want.   Birthplace and Home   Janet was born in Durban, South Africa. Her initial career in the I.T. (Information Technology) industry took her first to England, from where she travelled to parts of Europe and included a stint on a Kibbutz in Israel. While in England Janet was offered a contract in Australia, where she has lived for 23 years. Australia has numerous similarities to South Africa; the people are warm and friendly, the lifestyle relaxed and easy. Although Janet sometimes still misses the charming drumbeat of Africa, Australia is truly her home.   Feel free to:  ·        Comment on the articles on Janet’s website ·        Contact Janet to ask about your issues, frustrations, confusions etc or to tell her how “Just Like That!” and the blog helped you.     The Book   In her book “Just Like That!
