Throughout this time Rebecca, with the support of her husband Tim, continued to manage the business and support her family of 6 children. “I believe the challenges I have faced have given me a very real understanding of just how tough life can be and that throughout it all, we have to continue working. Very few have the luxury of not working, therefore, your career is a vital aspect of your life and to be happy at work is integral to your overall happiness.
