My Secret: Magic or …?

I get asked this question a lot: “How do you manage to deal with all that stuff but then still always have time to do things for yourself?” I used to answer with a small, shy smile, and perhaps a coy “Oh, I don’t really know” Or a joke, like I am secretly a witch and […]

Choosing when to see the Big Picture

It is often said that we have to see the big picture. I can agree with that sometimes and in some things, but there are times and places where I find I am an advocate for NOT seeing the bigger picture. You might think that doesn’t make any sense… Bear with me. I know it […]

Every 100 years.

Are you serious about moving yourself and/or your business forward to new possibilities and making sure you keep a good life balance? For several months now we have been living in a sort of bubble: it has been a bit like being in a waking nightmare or parallel universe… We couldn’t have anticipated that this would […]

Why I have learned a lot from Earthquakes

You may be wondering “what is she talking about!!!” Bear with me, and you will see where I am going… I think it’s probable that you‘ve never experienced an earthquake (and I hope you never do). It is not a fun experience, and there are an awful lot of things to take in consideration when […]

Lemons = Lemonade

STOP – You can do so much more When life gives you lemons….make lemonade, right? Wrong!!! You can do so much more with lemons. Use them for making savoury dishes, tasty desserts, things to go on toast, cleaning products, beauty products, cocktails. There are so many options…. Do you get my point? Not Yet? Well, […]

A Different Kind of Summer

There’s no doubt that we have all been adapting over the past weeks. It hasn’t been easy, but it seems we are all – or at least most of us – doing our best to keep this pandemic at bay. And that means a very different kind of summer for a lot of people. As […]

Head Over Heels Podcast

Here is a Heads Over Heels podcast episode were I was invited to talk about how it is possible to get an hour a day to do what it is most important for you! It was my great privilege to talk to Angela Sedran, an Australian based business woman because I would like that women […]

Making summer simple

I’m really looking forward to summer, I love the holidays – almost as much as I did when I was a child. The holidays flew by and I don’t really recall ever feeling anything other than blissfully happy for most of the time. The only thing I remember not enjoying was the day before our […]

Say “cheese”…

If you’re anything like me, the thought of having your photo taken fills you with dread. I’m far happier behind the camera than in front of it (as my Instagram account proves!). I’m never quite sure how to arrange my face so that I look comfortable, I usually manage to blink at just the wrong […]

Time for a girls’ night out?

Make time for someone special this Valentine’s Day – yourself! Whether it’s making time get glammed up ahead of a romantic date, or – more likely for those of us with families – making sure you get some “me time” to get your through a hectic half-term holiday (at least here where I live), taking […]

It’s the most Wonderful Time of the Year! – or is it NOT?

The TV and radio are full of jolly tunes and beautiful ads where everything is perfect and everyone is smiling. Families together enjoying their meal, happy faces opening their presents…but is it always like that? Or is it more like the Christmas movie ‘Jingle All the Way’, where Arnold Schwarzenegger forgets to buy the present […]

Feeling better yet?

I hope that the last few posts have helped you feel a bit more in control – and a lot less stressed. It’s easy to get overwhelmed by things, whether it’s actual stuff or stuff that needs to be done, and I’ve found that some of the things I’ve mentioned over the last couple of […]
