Facilities Manager by day in a busy office of 700+ people, Leonie Blakely's alter ego is: Frances Jewellery; her fledgling jewellery business.
As an INTP, it’s taken Leonie time to develop her restore cycle but she's discovered she thinks best whilst doing – Leonie & sitting still don’t work – she's best jewellery making, gardening, going for a run or puttering around at home to allow her thoughts to develop and settle. Her love to know and answer why? is key to her values, challenging herself outside of the box at all times.

“Described myself as ‘don’t put me into pigeon holes and don’t put me into boxes” - Leonie Blakely
“The jewellery that I do is almost my alter ego and create that space for me to be” - Leonie Blakely
“I realise that my introversion was the reason I didn’t want to go up and speak to someone without a purpose” - Leonie Blakely
“A lot of introverts do think they can’t do things which is why I talk about #DoWhatYouCant’ and it links to too many stereotypes about introverts - Gemma Stow
“We almost buy into the stereotypes and then introversion becomes this limiting belief” - Gemma Stow
“I think a lot of introverts think they can’t do things when they can is just about having that tool of having a reason for doing something for somebody really makes those connections” - - Leonie Blakely
“It’s not a negative thing to be an introvert ‘ it’s bloody awesome actually” - Gemma Stow
