Suke was inspired to create My LifeJars after a near-death experience from septicaemia, that had a profound effect on her how she would leave everything in a mess, together with not being able to find information when relatives died, which resulted in family conflict & legal action.

Her career as an entrepreneur commenced when she established and began operating a family Vineyard, Winery & Cellar Door in the NSW town of Mudgee. Ever-versatile, Suke also ran a heritage breed of sheep, having learned to birth lambs from YouTube videos.

Suke grew up in London, had a 20-year career as a Consulting Engineer in Acoustics both in the UK & Australia, before spending time as a Physics Teacher. She has qualifications from the Universities of Southampton, Heriot-Watt and Cambridge in engineering and teaching.

“There’s never a perfect moment to get our personal and small biz info sorted, but we’ve just got to find the time - for our family’s sake, and our own.” ~ Suke Ridler
