Mirrors…
A few weeks ago I was presented with a really interesting cross-road by the universe. I had been approached by two recruiters about two completely different roles. One was for a major global hedge-fund and the other was for a large international charity. Ironically enough, both have had the roles cease, but that experience in…

Healing mornings…
Mornings are such a blessing. I’ve missed the stillness and the pause that comes with it. Before the pandemic I had gotten into such a rush mode where I was chasing my days and always falling behind. No matter when I woke up or when I went to bed I was tired. I felt like…

Listen to your body….
The lockdown has stripped me of all the control I thought I had. With all the uncertainty, grief, loss and change in the air, anxiety and fear can really knock you out. Time’s like this, it’s so important to tune into your body and find out what feels right for you. No judgement, no expectation…

S…lo…w..i…n…g…D….ow….n….
I have recently started listening to some classical music throughout the day. I enjoy music and love all kinds of music, but I’m no pro and I don’t know much about it.

Here and now…
I love music, particularly music that has good lyrics. Words have a way of igniting my entire soul. They make me feel alive and feel deeply human and spirit at the same time. When I listen to music that can tap into my depth of being, I feel like I am at the intersection of…

I…
I worry about what will happen a lot, I don’t think this worry is helpful and I know from experience that it doesn’t change the outcome of what is meant to be. So, be gone. I get angry when there is injustice, but my anger doesn’t help resolve any issue. Judging others based on their…

Ride the wave…
Give me a minute, I’m a bit emotional and need to ride the waves of everything I’m feeling right now. – My new mental note I don’t think we fully allow ourselves to feel, maybe the issue is that we’ve not been taught how to surf. Some of us don’t even know how to swim…

Happy Birthday…
The final countdown is here, 2 more days left until I change the page and enter the next phase of ‘adulting’. I’ve already shared how there have been hard times and some tough but valuable lessons throughout my 20s, but there have also been some great experiences that have shaped me into the person that…

Who am I?
Who am I? How does one possibly answer a question so vast and vague? So temporary and fluid? I used to think that the things I associated with my identity would be adequate responses to this old age question of, who am I? But I have been stripped of my identity in so many ways throughout…
