After a rewarding career as a solicitor specialising in Wills, Trusts and Probate, Lissie Squires made a big change. She left behind the legal world, which she had spent more than half of her life pursuing, and embarked on a new journey towards her true passion in fashion and personal styling. In November 2025, Lissie launched her business: Senaya Styling.

The law lost its sheen for Lissie when she didn’t feel that she was spreading joy the way she wanted to. It was a matter of feeling less fulfilled and wanting more personal satisfaction in her career. It was a process and a journey that began in January 2025 for Lissie to find the right next steps for her.

Feeling a little lost and unsure, Lissie worked with a business coach who helped her discover that the most valuable aspect of her job was helping people and making a difference to someone’s life. When Lissie realised that this was what she longed for in her career, she felt the best way to marry it to her passion was to start a bespoke personal styling service.

In her previous life, Lissie learned that the best service begins with truly seeing the person in front of you, through empathy, careful listening, and a deep understanding of each client’s needs. These are qualities that have defined every step of her professional life to date and will continue to be the bedrock of Senaya’s ethos.

Since she decided to follow her long-held passion and become a personal stylist, Lissie’s transition to her new career has felt surprisingly natural. At its heart, styling is not about trends or rules: it’s about people. It’s about recognising personality, celebrating individuality, and guiding someone towards choices that make them feel confident, authentic and comfortable in their own skin.

That belief is captured in her business ethos: “It’s about Your Style, not The Style.” Lissie’s aim is to bring the same integrity, warmth and exceptional client care that defined her legal career into a space that empowers clients in a different, but equally meaningful, way.

Lissie speaks about her business with true energy and excitement: “Helping someone look great is wonderful, but helping them feel amazing, aligned, and truly themselves is where the real transformation happens”.
