Finding time to do the things you love…
Last week I mentioned that I have been pretty consistent with writing my blog over the last few years…but that doesn’t mean it has always been easy, infact, many weeks I have found it difficult to squeeze it in. Or maybe I just get lazy and my inner procrastinator just wants to watch TV instead……

My two year anniversary…
It occurred to me today that I have been writing in this blog for over two years. Wow. It has taken a few evolutions over this time but I committed myself to writing once a week and despite a few breaks, I have managed to be relatively consistent with it…which I am pretty proud of. …

Let me get back to you…
I’m not very good at thinking on my feet…it is one of my many weaknesses. I would be the worst improvisation actress ever. When someone says or does something I wasn’t expecting, it takes my brain at least 10-15min to catch up with what is happening…sometimes even 24hrs. I remember many nights in high school…

It is time to move bravely forward
Happy New Year (OK..I realise the new year started some time ago, but I’m just getting back in the saddle here, so I think I’m allowed to say that). This year, feels like it has started off with a bang for me. I’m still working out how I feel about that. Is this a good…

I may have eaten one too many mince pies…
I haven’t written much about this topic , because frankly…it’s BORING and OLD and really no one else actually cares. But I feel like I can’t avoid it, because it is swimming around in my brain and it is impacting the things that I am doing…so I’m just going to say it. I feel fat…

Slow down or lean in?…I’m so confused
As you know, I’m a little bit addicted to personal and career development stuff at the moment, I’m inhaling books, blogs and articles like oxygen. I’ve become incredibly curious and interested. I think it stems from trying to work out my own mind, which is always searching for answers (not that I am entirely sure…

Life is just a patchwork quilt of moments…
I’ve just come back from holidays and, yet again, I am reminded of the virtues of a little R&R on a regular basis. We really needed this break, and boy did it deliver. As I overheard my husband say to a friend…it was spectacular! And spectacular it was, we were fortunate to get ideal weather,…

Did you leave your undies on the bathroom floor this morning?
As much as I wish it wasn’t the case. Don’t you just want everyone to think that you rock it? that you have things sorted. How many of you tell everyone your “fine” when you are not? Pick up the undies off the bathroom floor when someone comes over? Apologise for the mess (when the…

I want to inspire people…
It has been a while since I wrote anything about my work in this blog. My juggles with things outside of work seem to dominate my stories, and perhaps where I am falling apart the most!? But I wanted to talk today about one of my favourite things to do, especially at work, which is…

Chocolate versus a Tomato…who wins?
Transporting you back to about this time last year…. It is cold and dark outside. But we are sitting on the couch snuggled up under a woolly blanket. The fireplace is gently crackling in the corner and i have a lovely warm cup of tea in my hand. Bliss. The only fly in my ointment, …
