Meet Sam
Sam truly understands after having gone through her own family and personal circumstances, she knows first-hand how difficult it can be when you don’t have an expert by your side to offer the genuine support you need.
As a former CIMA Accountant, Sam provides years of experience and knowledge in the field. With her vast experience Sam is able to provide clients with practical solutions that are grounded in reality.
In addition to her experience as a CIMA Accountant, Sam has also worked extensively with small and medium enterprises (SME’s), providing guidance on compliance with regulations and business growth.
Her personal experience includes symptoms of Chronic Fatigue which led to her leaving the corporate world, having only savings to rely on for income. Having no Income Protection in place, with no knowledge that this type of policy existed she had to find her way back to work and replenishing her savings. She now shares her story and helps others find these solutions and thoroughly enjoys giving her clients, businesses and families alike the peace of mind they deserve.
Meet Leanne
Leanne is a wife and mum to two children and understands the demands parents face, in particular. Juggling work and parenting has its challenges and Leanne aims to make the experience of working with her easy and accessible.
Although, initially starting out providing advice on insurance for individuals she has expanded into helping business owners aswell as qualifying as a Mortgage Adviser in the difficult year of 2020.
Leanne has many years of office and customer service experience, including in management and business development. Businesses included Local Authority, Training and Education, Manufacturing and Charitable.
Mortgage Advice is so important and planning in advance is key too. Leanne is passionate about not only providing mortgage advice but also to help clients understand the need for insurances and educating them to ensure that they can stay in their home, the home they have invested so much into.

Everyone’s Life Is A Journey
As a former CIMA Accountant, Sam provides years of experience and knowledge in the field. With her vast experience, Sam is able to provide clients with practical solutions that are grounded in reality.
In addition to her experience as a CIMA accountant, Sam has also worked extensively with small and medium enterprises (SMEs), providing guidance on compliance with regulations and assisting with business growth.
However, through Sam’s story, she comes to realise that she is not indestructible & in November 2013, Sam began to experience persistent tiredness, memory loss, and reliance on willpower. The doctor told her these words in January 2014: “We believe you have Chronic Fatigue.”
Sam was an in-demand project manager at the time, so she was well compensated. With enough money saved up to last several years, Sam chose to leave the corporate world and focus on the most important aspect of all, her health.
When she heard about income protection, her stomach dropped. If she’d taken out a policy during her peak earning years, it would have paid her a portion of her earnings until the state Pension age. This was a terrible blow. She not only had to generate income again, but she also needed to replenish her savings
She realised that if she had this policy, her life would be very different today and that the time she spent healing could have been 100% dedicated to her health and wellbeing rather than where the money will come from when it runs out.
But thankfully, since leaving the corporate world, Sam has been sharing her story in order to help others who may be facing similar challenges and created the solution, which is Enable Life.
Amazingly, Sam was presented with the opportunities within this sector, and never took the opportunity. Although, with her life experiences, she knew it was the direction she needed to take, to make the change this sector critically needed.
Unfortunately, Sam’s story is not uncommon, but now, Enable Life has created a solution that will provide people with the peace of mind that they are taken care of, should the unexpected happen. Alongside Enable Future, which services individuals with their wills & estate planning.
“I help you to enable your life, and enable your future to continue too”
Here I Am Today
Motivated to help others avoid fate or worse, I trained as a Protection Specialist and began Enable Life to provide Business Protection throughout the UK.
Because of my Financial background, I understand how to structure policies to be tax-efficient and account for the needs of a business, its owners and employees. I also understand from professional experience how stressful things become when the unthinkable happens, and how important it is to make sure there is enough cash to meet everyone’s needs to keep the cash flow demands of a business
I pride myself in using simple language to make sure you have the right level of cover and understand exactly what you have in place and how to access it should you need to. When working with you, my first step is to undertake a full life analysis and listen to your concerns so i can recommend a bespoke solution to meet your unique needs.
Values

- Building the business based on mutual respect and trust with a genuine desire to help our clients.
- Being supportive in every way to clients by hand-holding and guiding them through the journey in a structured way; which is on their timeline, not ours.
- Inspiring clients to make informed decisions about their future.
Responsibility
- At Enable Life you will not be sold to, only given advice to help you make the decisions.
- First and foremost is to listen to clients, get to know them as individuals, understand the issues they are looking to solve; which will bring them financial peace of mind and their family dignity when something happens.
- Giving advice in an open, simple and transparent way to clients is important. We ensure the client fully understands the options available to them so that they can make informed decisions.
