The other day, I spoke at length with my brother over the phone. It was nice. And he pointed out how I kept saying "obviously" and I do catch myself doing this sometimes. I think it's because of my low confidence? I think what I have to say is obvious, so I point out that… Continue reading When We Miss the Obvious
Defining a challenge = defining success
This year I’ve challenged myself in many ways. My focus for 2022 was to enjoy myself and trust myself again, but I did end up tagging on a little extra in that I wanted to challenge myself quarterly (at least).

I means it’s annoying when kids go “why? Why? Why?” to everything you say, but it’s actually a brilliant way of… Continue reading The Power of Asking Why

A different New Year’s perspective
I think we need to bring balance to this New Year. Where we set goals or intentions or to-do lists, but we also let go of shame and anger that comes with not achieving those things. I’m someone who believes in ambition and doing your best and trying to improve. But I’m also learning about… Continue reading A different New Year’s perspective
