GRIMLEY OF LJ HOOKER
COMMERCIAL COFFS
HARBOUR IS A LEADER
IN LEASING. BRINGING A
WEALTH OF KNOWLEDGE
FROM PREVIOUS
CAREERS IN RETAIL ASSET
MANAGEMENT, LEASING
AND SALES, SHE UTILISES
THIS PASSION FOR
CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE
TO HELP BUSINESSES

CONFESSED “FOODIE”.
What was your last listing/win?
I try not to get too carried away with
the listings. A “WIN” for me, is when
a client finds a new home for their
business. Listings will follow through
on their own accord because, as they
say, you’re only as good as your
last customer.
When was the last time you were
truly inspired?
When I saw Yotam Ottolenghi’s last
post on Instagram – he is a very
talented chef who inspires me with his
creativity and treatment of food!
What was the last training session
you did?
This morning I participated in group
exercise training – if I exercise I can eat
more delicious food!
What was the last film you saw?
Bridget Jones baby. It was very funny
and light hearted, tune in and zone out
type of stuff!
What was your last splurge?
That would probably have to be buying
some high-risk shares a few weeks ago.
I’m not sure it was the best thing to do,
but only time will tell.
What was the last book you read?
It would have been a true crime novel
quite a while ago – crime stories keep
me intrigued.
What was the last app you
downloaded?
STAYZ and AirBNB. My daughter
has moved to Burleigh Heads and my
other daughter is looking to relocate
there soon, hence I plan on heading
north more often to see them.
When was your last moment
of bliss?
I have to say it was eating at a
restaurant at lunch time – it’s a very
decadent thing to do in a busy day.
What was the last holiday you
went on?
Have I mentioned I like FOOD and
cooking FOOD?! It was a luxurious
four-day weekend in October in
Sydney wining, dining and sightseeing.
I also took my girls to the Gili
Islands and Bali for some rest and
relaxation in September which was a
lot of fun.
What was the last piece of advice
some has given you?
I was told to do things in “moderation”
and I try live by that, and provide the
same advice to others. Also, “Live each
day as it comes” because you never know
what is around the corner – however
this advice is not always very easy.
