Most people already know Cheryl Cattarin, who has worked in the Natural Therapies and Gifts Industry for over 25 years. Cheryl is the Founder and Director of Inner Solutions Australia Pty Ltd


Cheryl's Story:

In the early days of my business I spent a lot of time travelling from Evening College to Evening College teaching about the connections between mind, body and spirit. I covered a lot of Sydney and it was a wonderful experience to see people light up and develop skills to enhance their happiness and wellbeing as a result of my teaching. I also taught in the corporate world, The Happiness and Wellbeing Workshops and Stress and Time Management Skills.  I eventually set up my own shop in Belfield: Inner Solutions Natural Therapies and Gifts, as a base to serve those students wanting to learn more.  Essential oils and the scent of incense wafted throughout Belfield streets and brought many like-minded people to my practice. Teaching group Past Life Therapy, Meditation, Reiki, and the Happiness and Wellbeing Workshops as well as private consultations in Hypnotherapy, Counselling, Past Lives and Reiki created some wonderful connections with people interested in self-healing and manifesting their desires and goals. We also had an excellent Tarot Card Reader and Massage Therapist at the centre. 

Then came the stretch into authoring: From Crappy to Happy, a Self-help book that sets out some very simple steps for creating a healthy body, mind and spirit. I can tell you that writing  such a book is cathartic.

It has been a great experience to work with people using the skills in the book and seeing them finally become more vibrant and alive, once they strip back layers of fear, hurt, etc and find their true authentic self. Great connections with groups of people changing, growing and becoming more vibrantly alive.

Throughout the last ten years along side this wonderful work, I have worked in the corporate world as a Marketing Manager, organising branding, marketing, advertising, web site development and SEO, as well as organising trade shows and expos. I love knowing and working with such wonderful beings and  creating opportunities for people through networking to discover others in the natural therapies field.

Over the years I have learnt how much of a difference it makes to a business when resources are pooled for advertising and marketing. Like-minded businesses grow at a faster rate and greater opportunities present themselves for natural therapists to bring their skills and gifts to the marketplace. I also think that when people are looking for therapists an opportunity to 'try before you buy' is invaluable. The Connections Natural Therapies and Gifts Fair provides the perfect opportunity to do this.

I also often hear people in small businesses feeling frustrated or burning themselves out because they do not have the resources to run their business all by themselves, and nor should they. Most of these businesses operate with between one to five people who have specialised skills for working on the mind, body and / or spirit. Having to also take care of marketing and advertising their business's is not always easy.

The Connections Natural Therapies and Gifts Fairs have evolved because people in the natural therapies field have voiced their concerns to me over the years. I have always been one to network and share business cards with others, connecting therapists to customers, gifts to consumers and now ..... feel called to become more committed to our therapists working in the field who need 'someone' to pull it all together, providing advertising, marketing and events. So Connections Natural Therapies and Gifts Fairs was born in March, 2015.... and it's a way for you to promote yourself in your local community.

I have watched our industry grow over the past 25 years.... when I started out Hypnotherapy was still considered unusual, Meditation 'weird' and Theta Healing wasn't even born. Today, most people know what Reiki is, and, having a Naturopath is normal. This is a growing industry and if you want to be a part of growing your business with Connections, then come and share your story with us. Our fairs cover most areas of Sydney, so there is sure to be one near you and your local community.
