Hello Happy Friday, the weekend is within smelling distance 😊 Next week is a time to talk day on 4 February – so I’ll be doing some articles and blogs around that topic next week. If anyone else has anything planned for a time to talk day, please could you get in touch with me?…

The no-drug approach to mild depression
I read an interesting article on the Harvard Medical website around approaches to managing depression without a need for drugs such as anti-depressants. Each individual’s symptoms are different and the treatment approach is for the individual. I’d always recommend talking to a medical professional or doctor etc. As some one who has experienced depression a…
Blog: Finding the right tools
Welcome to Monday, I hope you had a great weekend. I’m got a little behind with my wellbeing work over the weekend, basically everything I had planned to do did not happen. I bought and received a new laptop, so my time was spent getting that up and running. Hopefully I’ll be back on track…
Blue Monday
Today (Monday 18 January) is blue Monday. It is the third Monday of the year, and is known by some (or many) to be the most depressing day of the year. This is supposedly due to a combination of bad weather, long nights and the lingering negatives of Christmas (over indulging and financial pressures etc)….
Blog: 8760
8760. I want you to think about that number, 8760. The clock keeps ticking, we get older. Time flies? Not always when we are having fun, but it sure does keep ticking. What is a year… it sounds like a lot, but in reality, a year can pass really quickly. One year 12 months 365…
Blog: A time to reflect

Blog: The little things really do matter
I hope you all had a great weekend. For me, it was quite a busy one. Yet on paper, it would look like I did nothing. I finally reorganised my home gym into a more organised structure and on with some work towards the new life coaching course I am developing too. I also enjoyed…
Blog: Challenging the lie of perfection
Perfection? Sounds great doesn’t it. It sounds ideal, relaxing. The thing is perfection does not exist. Chasing perfection is a journey with no end. You cannot achieve perfection, there will always be something that changes. The myth of perfection really damages people. The burden of never feeling good enough can wreck us. Life is supposed…
