The Power of Taking Control
So much of what I help people do is to feel more powerful – and to not just feel more powerful in how they respond to situations or navigate change but to actually BE more powerful.

The Reason We Get Stuck in Our Habits and Patterns

Your Intuition is The Flow of Life
You know that moment when you’re getting into your car to leave for work and you suddenly remember your laptop bag is still sitting on the dining room table? Or your gym bag is sitting on the bedroom floor? So you nip back inside, grab what you need and then head off to work. Have you ever wondered where that little message came from? Was it ... [Read On]
What My Most Resilient Clients are Doing – and What They’re Not
I’m super proud of many of my clients who have rallied and responded to their own business challenges with fantastic resilience and wisdom. It seems like a good time to share some of their secrets and talk about what the most resilient leaders do to not only get through, but to also thrive through challenge - and take their people with them. ...

That’s probably a lot of expectation to place on these words as they drop onto the page like stilettos down a staircase, but it is honestly what I intend each time I write.
