A lot has happened over these past few months – both globally and on a personal level. Despite all the change and disruption, I have learned to remain more calm and in control.

Having a solid and consistent routine is something which is really important to me. No matter how disruptive a […]

Small Changes That Have Positively Impacted My Life

Small changes

“Your future is found in your daily routine. Successful people do daily what others do occasionally.” – Paula White. I’ve been working from home for about six or seven weeks now, and my daily routine has been well and truly disrupted.

I rise early, spend the first couple of hours in the day investing in myself physically, mentally and spiritually, and then begin my usual work day in the office. Like many others, self-isolation has resulted in my usual daily routine being disrupted. Whilst I was quick to create a new work from home routine which […]

Why You Should Treat Yourself This Christmas. “All of us can improve the quality of our lives if we practice the art of self-care and and train our minds to think thoughts that make us feel good.” – Louise Hay. Christmas is one of my favourite times of the year. It’s a time to come together, celebrate and create moments and memories with our loved ones.

Making Positive & Lasting First Impressions. “You never get a second chance to make a first impression” – Will Rogers. Have you ever laid eyes on someone and immediately made judgments about the kind of person they are? Well, we regularly make these types of assumptions, but we may not spend time asking ourselves why. Our brains make snap judgements about people within 30 seconds of meeting them.
