Evolving

When I heard my client say along the lines “I’ve given myself permission to watch a bit more TV” it struck me. That’s exactly what I wanted to do.   I’ve been very strict with myself for years about if, when, how, what I watch on TV.  Rarely...

Already doing it

Leadership. It’s such a loaded word, isn’t it? We tend to think about it, only in the context of work or professional lives,  being a leader developing leadership skills, looking at how to be a better leader et cetera. It can sometimes make your eyes...

The little BIG things

Isn't it easy and, to a point, natural to take things for granted? I call them the 'little big things'.   The things like walking, jumping up out of your seat, reading, speaking, sleeping, going to the loo.  All the things that function for us if...
