This morning I sat outside savouring my coffee and writing notes on what I wanted to work on today. It felt delicious, sitting there listening to bees go about their day, hearing birds in the trees. So peaceful. So grounding. What really came through for me is we don’t think it’s ok to work this […]
I was scrolling Facebook the other day and noticed a post from a friend about getting back into a fitness routine. The post showed a schedule of daily at home workouts and classes. A workout and a class every single day. After starting from nothing. How long do you think she maintained this schedule for? […]
It’s amazing how easy it becomes to be motivated when you know what you’re doing every day. A lack of motivation is often a sign of not knowing where to start. The challenge is too many decisions about where to start. You get overwhelmed and do nothing. Remove the decision making in the moment. When […]
In this age of ever increasing flexible working, we are often left to our own devices. Sure working from home sounds great but do you ever find yourself struggling to stay focused? There’s always more washing to do after all. As you move up in your career, there is less and less supervision so learning […]
The end of 2019 is rapidly approaching and Instagram is flooded with posts about getting ready for the new decade.

However, there’s no getting away from the fact that as […]
Life is busy. We all want to do better but it sometimes it feels like we just don’t have the time. The reality is becoming more productive doesn’t need to be an onerous task. One simple change to your daily routine or a new habit to keep focused can have a major impact on how […]
A month ago I finished a three month group Mastermind and made more progress in my business than in the previous year. Two years ago I invested in a relationship coach and completely changed all of my beliefs surrounding relationships. Now I have the best friendships imaginable and clear understanding of what I want in […]
Productivity isn’t being busy. Productivity isn’t being exhausted. Productivity isn’t about maximising every single millisecond. Productivity isn’t even about output or how much you achieve or how quickly. You could do the crossword in your fastest time yet but for what? Why does that matter? You could complete a hundred crosswords a day which certainly […]
The biggest shock when I started my first professional job was learning you never get it all done. At university, your to-do list is finite. There are classes and course work. Essays to hand in.
