When she was a little baby and scared of the dark, she felt safe after mummy’s magic kiss. When she was a little girl and scraped her knee, the thing that made it better was mummy’s magic kiss. As she got a little older, she found out that not everyone was nice, but it didn’t…
The Blog
Love Is…
Do you remember those old cartoon strips with the cutesy girl and guy and the ‘Love Is’ quotes? I’ve been thinking about those two words quite a lot recently. Love is so many things to so many people. I know it’s the obvious – the hearts, flowers, chocolates and all that. But it is so…
My Life My Way
It has been almost a year since my last post. I have been meaning to write another one for a while but for various reasons have been putting it off. Last month I received an invitation, asking me to share how I run my business in my own way. Why am I taking this particular invitation seriously and…
My Streetlights
In the last twelve months, as I dealt with some unexpected lows as well as some welcome highs, there were a couple of quotes that resonated with me time and again. (Here’s the link to the blog about that time, if you’d like a peek.) The quote I want to focus on today is…
One Day, One Year, One Life
It’s been just over a year since I wrote my last blog post. For a very long time I haven’t wanted to write any more blog posts. In fact, I haven’t wanted to write anything at all – not blogposts, nor chapters for the new book, not even to-do lists (which I love and live…
Love is like a beard
I saw this in amongst the myriad of ‘Love Is’ memes doing the rounds at the moment. The actual quote is “True love is like a beard. It never ends – it only grows.” I’m sharing it with you because it made me smile and it made me think. Maybe we should all be like…
The Power of Your Potential
Happy New Year! I hope you’ve had a little time over the festive season to recharge, reconnect with friends and family and maybe even think about what you want to focus on in 2016. I have to admit I’m not a fan of new year’s resolutions. I talk about it in a little more in…
Sending Love
I’ve been thinking about what I could include in this penultimate blog post of the year when it’s not quite Christmas Day, but it’s tantalisingly close. I was also looking through some pictures and quotes for inspiration. Nothing seemed quite right. I decided to take a break and make myself a tea, and as I…
May The Force Be With You
It’s impossible to avoid it, so I’m not even going to try. This week we will see one of the world’s biggest and most extravagant and most eagerly anticipated movie premieres of all time – Star Wars: The Force Awakens. And although there are a whole host of memorable characters in the franchise, the one that…
Christmas Dazzle
As we head into the middle of December, all around me my friends, colleagues and family are getting into the Christmas spirit. It makes me think of two quotes that seem particularly relevant, and I want to see what you think. “Remember, This December, That love weighs more than gold!” – Josephine Dodge Daskam Bacon…
