When I think of the song by Alicia Key’s ‘Girl On Fire’ it reminds me of this wonderful, vibrant human, Michelle Scheibner.

She has recently launched her incredibly powerful book called, ‘Hush - A memoir unravelling the unintended legacy of family secrets’. Even the cover of the book is reminiscent of a fire - black and white with red and yellow tones - it’s visually stunning.

Recently I came across a passage from the book, ‘Women’s Wellness Wisdom’ by Dr Libby Weaver and it really spoke to me.

I think it meant so much to me because I was unconsciously questioning myself about what it would take for me to a truly happy, honest to goodness, beaming from inside, lit up woman.

In our fast-paced, achievement-oriented society, it's all too easy to find ourselves trapped in routines that drain our energy and crush our spirits, particularly at work.

There are many moments in life when we know we are on track. We know because of the way it makes us, and others around us feel.

One of the ways I know is when I am operating in line with my profile.

Do we compare ourselves to others? 🤔 The easy answer is YES we do!

The tendency to compare ourselves to others is deeply ingrained in human nature and serves various psychological, social, and emotional functions within us.

I was pondering over a question recently, which was, 'what are the major challenges that leaders in small businesses face when growing their businesses?' ✨

This is what ChatGPT suggested (my new brainstorming buddy) and I thought these ideas were worth sharing 😉

It's taken me years to realise that I am both a Life Coach and a Performance Coach - I know right, lol 😆

So what are the differences between them both?

Recently, I got to meet this truly extraordinary woman, Alexandra André 🏃‍♀️ She is the one who wrote me this note!

Recently this awesome book ‘Hidden Potential’ by Adam Grant has been accompanying me to the gym in the morning to fuel my love of learning during my bike sessions.

There is so much to love about this book ❤️ It’s jam-packed with relatable stories and practical insights.

I’m a HUGE Formula One Fan, in fact I can’t wait to be in the stands watching the action at Albert Park this March. The tickets are booked and we are ready to roll.

What inspires you? Have you considered that when you are inspired you take action? It’s an interesting thought isn’t it.

I often talk about people I meet as '#lituphumans’. It’s a term (or hashtag) I created when I wanted to shine a light on these exciting and inspirational people.

As I have started writing my book, it has become apparent to me that there are many parallels to my experience of training for the Olympic Triathlon last year.

Are you making life easy by simply, being YOU? Sounds like an obvious thing to say and yet I Coach so many people who have literally forgotten who they are. There are many reasons this happens and often it happens insidiously over time, so we don’t even realise it’s happening?

Have you noticed that we are all fascinated by famous people. We often wonder what it is about them that made them able to achieve their success. The funny thing about that is it also makes us think about our own abilities and whether we have what it takes to succeed in areas of life that matter to us.

Numerology can a play a very impactful role when it comes to nurturing meaningful and connected relationships with our children. I even used the power of Numerology when I was naming my daughter.

In the current tech age to be understood, valued and attract the opportunities you are seeking you need to be will to promote your SELF.

What a year 2022 has been - I have achieved so much physically and have been revelling in being injury-free all year….until the 31st December.

As a leader I believe in ‘walking the talk’. To me that means not asking my team to do things that I wouldn’t do myself.

Change is good. As we emerge out of Covid you many think I’m slightly crazy stating that, but please stay with me as there is method to my madness.
