🌿 MEET OLIVIA | THE PERSON BEHIND ABSOLUTE BEAUTY 🤎
I thought it was time to share a little more about the person behind Absolute Beauty, beyond the treatments and the salon!
I'm Olivia 51, and I grew up in Hill of Down, Co. Meath, as the eldest of four daughters. Being the eldest has probably played a part in shaping the person I am today. I'm independent and strong-minded, caring and thoughtful, but I'm also sensitive and intuitive. I'm sure my sisters might have their own opinions on what it was like growing up with me! 😂
I have such fond memories of my childhood summers. I spent them enjoying haymaking season, footing turf, my arms wrapped around my dad's waist as I helped to calf cows,... riding my bike along the back roads, enjoying picnics by the canal and playing with my sisters, cousins and friends. Making a mess in the kitchen with my Mam.
Babee houses, shed swings and picking blackcurrants.
Those simple days and memories will always hold a special place in my heart.
I'm a little bit of everything, really. I'm quiet until I get to know someone, then my funny and playful side tends to come out. I'm a perfectionist, and an awful overthinker at times, and someone who's always curious about people, life and what makes us who we are.
✨ A few things you might not know about me...
☀️ I'm a sunshine and holiday lover. I love travelling, exploring different places and experiencing different cultures. There's something about getting away, discovering somewhere new and soaking up the sunshine that makes me happy. (Oh we know this one!)
🍲 I love cooking international dishes and experimenting with different flavours. Good food, good company and a glass of w**e now and again are some of life's simple pleasures!
🎶 I enjoy music, live entertainment and getting out to experience something different.
🌳 I love walking in nature, beautiful surroundings and cosy spaces. I appreciate peace and quiet too, as much as I enjoy a bit of adventure.
🧘♀️ Yoga and meditation are interests of mine, and I enjoy making time to slow down, reconnect with myself and find a little balance in everyday life.
✨ My spiritual side is important to me. I'm interested in personal growth, holistic wellbeing and understanding ourselves on a deeper level. I love learning about people and life, and I'm always reflecting, questioning and discovering new things along the way.
🎨 I also enjoy making models and exploring my creative side. I love having interests outside of work that allow me to switch off and do something different.
☕ One thing about me? I need my morning routine! I like to start my day in my own way, with a bit of structure before everything gets going. We all have our little habits, don't we?
❤️ What matters most to me?
My family and friends. The people who are genuine, who make you laugh, who care about you and who are there through life's different chapters.
I value honesty, kindness, meaningful connections and being able to be yourself around the people in your life. As I've grown older, I've come to appreciate even more the importance of protecting your peace, trusting yourself and making room for the things and people that genuinely matter.
I'm definitely not someone who has everything figured out. I'm still learning, growing, making mistakes and trying to understand myself and the world a little better. I think that's part of being human!
🌿 And then there's Absolute Beauty...
I've been working in the beauty industry for over 30 years and running my own business since 2006. What I love most is being able to create a calm, welcoming space where people can take a breath, relax and have some time just for themselves.
I feel very fortunate to meet so many different people through my work and to be part of their lives in my own little way.
So, that's a little more about me. A Meath girl who loves sunshine, travel, good food, creativity, spirituality, meaningful conversations and the simple things that make life special. 🤎
Thank you to everyone who has supported me and Absolute Beauty over the years. Whether you've been with me from the beginning or have only recently found me, I appreciate you being part of the journey.
