If you’ve been following this series of three posts on making time for transformation, you’ll have no doubt in your mind now about how I feel about, well, making time for transformation … I rate it big time. (Read Part One here and Part Two here). But as well as making time for this in our lives, what else do we need to factor in? Here I share some ... [Read On]
Celebrating Progress – Why We Should Do It and How
Text message received from friend last month: “Wahoo! Congrats, girlfriend. So very delighted for you!” This was in response to my text saying I’d had a client book a really great piece of work with me that I was really excited about. And what a buzz to share it – and with someone who knew what it meant to me and what it had taken to ... [Read On]
On Making Time for Transformation – Part Two
So perhaps you’ve just read Part One of On Making Transformation, and you’re thinking How do I actually start making space for this? I find getting the logistics sorted around having time for yourself can be just as game-changing as getting your head around it! In this instalment: How do you make space? Let's make it okay to ...

How to stay SANE in the lead up to Christmas
I’m not going to mention how many days it is until Christmas because I hate it when people do that. I’d much rather remain ignorant and pretend the year isn’t moving along at quite such the break-neck speed it is. However, given that it is mere weeks away and silly season is certainly kicking in (today on a five minute drive from my house to my ... [Read On]
On Making Time for Transformation – Part One
Whether it's for deep transformation, some stress relief or anything in between, when a client decides to come to coaching or a friend says he’s starting a six week mindfulness course, I always do an internal hop-skip-and-a-jump of celebration. I think, Yay, good on you! How awesome to be taking that time for yourself and to be choosing ... [Read On]
Quick Tip for Easy Daily Self-Care – What Does My Body Need Today?
I’ve been reflecting today on how keeping yourself healthy and covering off all the elements of 'daily self-care' can feel like quite a long to-do list. If we think about eating healthily, drinking plenty of water, getting our daily exercise, breathing, resting, meditating or praying, getting enough sleep, taking the right vitamins, and, and, and, ...

Why Multitasking Is A Fallacy
Multitasking has been in favour for some time, perhaps since the 90’s when people decided that efficiency was King, and surely we should be able to get more done. Fast forward to today and brain science tells a very different story – not only about how much we can get done, but how well we’ll do it. After all, you may get that proposal or finished ...

Where Our Brilliant Ideas Come From
This morning as I was waking up and on that lovely edge of wakefulness and sleep, my mind was quite quiet and I just let myself lie there for a bit, snuggling into my duvet a bit more, on what was a cold frosty morning here. Then I had one of those sneaky little a-ha moments where suddenly the way to open a team-working workshop next week came into ... [Read On]
7 Signs You May Be Experiencing ‘Stress Creep’
Not until I went through burnout did I know there was a thing such as ‘stress creep’. That’s the nature of chronic stress and burnout in many cases; it literally sneaks up on you. It can happen so subtly over time that it’s not until you hit the wall, or experience a few symptoms that precede hitting the wall such as sleeplessness, mental fogginess ... [Read On]
Be on the front foot with your wellness (and performance) this winter
As autumn really takes hold here in the southern hemisphere, my stock standard response is complete denial. No, winter is not coming. No, it’s not going to get cold. No, no, no. Winter is simply not my favourite season, and so I like to be all mature about it and just bury my head in the sand (preferably on a warm, tropical island). I’m also ... [Read On]
