2017 has started as a year of soul searching for me. I’ve had time to ponder and reflect which has expanded my self awareness. And what has become increasingly important to me is growing my self worth. Unless we really believe in ourselves I think we struggle to make big changes or do things to make our […]

Doing it (or not doing it in this case) for self-love
This year I’ve decided is all about growing my self worth. The first area I started reviewing was my relationships and what they have looked like for the last couple of years. And I don’t feel they have been reflecting me feeling worthy. So to begin, I am committing to myself that there will be no […]
Not getting the desired result might be ok
So it was Australia Day end of January. I was having a quiet one at home for my week of no drinking, no TV, meditating and yoga. There was a free fair/concert up the road. So I walked 3km to Enmore Park to see Diesel. He was going to be on 7.45pm to 8.30pm and […]
January progress for the magic happiness weapon (the whiteboard)
Hello fabulous one!!!!! Welcome to February. How was January? Interestingly if you were to ask me, I’d say pretty good. Yet when I look at my whiteboard, I realise the real answer is January was AMAZING. This the power I get from my whiteboard. A constant reminder of all the great things I have done. […]
The importance of words
Words are phenomenal. What they can do just blows my mind. We can communicate with each other, we can learn, we can be entertained by stories, we can tell jokes, we can write love letters, we can encourage people, support people, debate, discuss, argue, write, read, talk etc. Where would we be without words? […]
My magic weapon for happiness
It’s a whiteboard!!!!! Yes that sounds like the worst thing on earth – conjures up pictures of a bossy person explaining budgets to you and telling you that you are never allowed to spend money or have any fun ever again. But mine is different. It’s magic. Oh, of course it’s not magic. It just […]
Be kind to yourself
So you’ll see this as my sign off for all posts. Interestingly this morning I felt like a bit of a hypocrite because I actually need to be telling myself this very important message. I’ve been so anxious and uncomfortable since I launched my blog out into the world and I’ve been trying to work […]
Why feeling lonely is a good thing
Yes this sounds totally daft. Let me see if I can actually explain this to make sense. Most of us are in such a big crazy rush every day. We are never alone. We are with our partners, our friends, our children, our work colleagues or a billion other people commuting to work. We feel […]
Children have got it going on
So it’s 3 weeks since leaving my job and I’m sitting in paradise in Far North Queensland, Australia, at the pool with 2 free cocktails feeling very happy with the world. I start watching kids. As someone without kids I’ve often seen them as a bit of a bother when they are in my space. […]
There is magic out there
I’m a bit of a anti-consumerism and not wasting electricity kind of person BUT I was just coming home from dinner with a fab friend that lives in the US when this caught my eye. So I did a detour and checked it out. I felt like crying there was so much joy looking at […]
