It’s a bit like the best bits of Christmas, but with a less repetitive soundtrack 😉 Say what? Well, we all know the best fun part of Christmas is making other people smile. The Christmas Spirit infects us at some point in December (yes, December people, not October or November!) and we start wishing random […]

Children’s Mental Health Week
After nearly a year of disrupted schooling and intermittent social interaction, our children are suffering. A lot of their parents are struggling too. The current lockdown is making the first one feel like a summer holiday in comparison. 1st Lockdown When the schools first closed in March 2020, the sun was out and it felt […]

The Domino Effect
Have you ever noticed the domino effect in your own life? You know, where one thing happens and then it triggers another thing, which sets off another thing and maybe the initial change was tiny but by the end the change has been huge? In The Power of Habit we met Lisa Allen, who changed […]
The Mid Year Review
I don’t think anybody would disagree that 2020 has been a pretty weird year thus far. We had the catastrophic bushfires in Australia, locusts in Africa, global pandemic and probably the biggest surge in consciousness around racism since the civil rights movement in the 1960s. Much of it has happened against a backdrop of lockdown, […]
