Empathy Can Change the World
When I saw this video clip I thought it was spot on. There are many video clips about Empathy and one of the best is here. However, when I saw this clip below, straight from the mouths of year 8 students, I was extremely moved. I hope you will be too. Maybe these young people will inspire […]
Tips for Work-Life Balance from a Mum
If you’ve read my work or heard me speak, you may know that I struggle with the idea of work-life balance. I think the reality is that there is so much more on the list of Life than there is on the list of Work – therefore meaning it is impossible to balance this idea of […]

Self Care is about valuing You. I know that for me, sometimes life gets on top of me and I forget to put myself on the list. I have found it helpful to have a list of things that I can do for myself regularly and as a once off, that reminds me that I’m […]

Sometimes the struggle is questioning “Who am I?”, other times it’s financial struggle or the kids seem to be misbehaving more than normal, or maybe it’s the struggle of authenticity and vulnerability.

Self Care Tip – Get Colouring
When I was little I loved to colour… on the other hand I knew I wasn’t the best because I would often enter colouring competitions and I don’t ever remember winning! Then came year 12, deep down I knew what my artistic ability was and still I chose to do Art in Year 12… because, […]
