Ghosted…
Recently I’ve had a dear friend of mine ghost me. This is a friend that I considered to be like family, we had known each other for around 10 years and had been there through the highs and the lows. She is one of the few people that I thought would be there until the…

Slowly, but surely..self-assured
This year I wanted to develop my sense of self-assurance. So I set this as my intention word that I want to anchor everything back to so that I can be focused on where to spend my energy. Upon reflecting back on the first 6 months of this year I can see that the first…

Attached
What are we most attached to? Materialism, ideas, thoughts, identity, relationships, feelings, expectations, wants, desires, love. What are we most attached to? All of the above and then some. It’s interesting because I don’t know if attachment is the type of feeling I want to experience, it clashes with my personal values of freedom and…

Bringing the emotions home…
What chance do you have to grow and let go if you don’t believe in your core that you can? What hope is there, if you are constantly putting yourself down and or contradicting your desires with your limitations? It all starts and ends with us, what we believe is what we will ultimately experience.…

The shades of strength…
I want to talk about being strong and resilient. These are compliments that I have received a few times throughout my life, mainly because I’ve been able to get through difficult life events with a level of consistency and an impression that it doesn’t effect me as badly as it does. To be fair, I…

Fall and rise …
What is driving you today? In this moment, to what and who are you devoted to? I am lost in my thoughts and my heart has closed up, so my mind feels the need to take control and guide us through. “If we do well at work and if we keep others happy, then all…

Stepping into leadership…
Being a leader is hard work, it requires you to challenge so many of your learnt behaviours and thought processes; that is if you are intending on being a good leader. Stepping into a leadership role this year has exposed how critical and harsh I am to myself. The past couple of weeks a junior…

Stop forcing it..
This Sunday I’m trying to reconnect back with the peace and silence that is somewhere in and around me. I’ve been so uptight and stressed over the past few weeks that I’ve lost all sense of calm and serenity. What is it that is causing me to stress? The simple answer is my thinking patterns…

Circuit Breaker…
I got up last night and I noticed my thoughts were going wild. They were unkind and suspicious and rather unhelpful and negative. I suppose that’s normal for the middle of the night, but then again is it? It dawned on me that my negative self talk was in control again. It’s the result of…
