Ah the age-old to-do list. The reason to buy cute stationery, the most rewarding 'tick it off as you go' system, and the biggest guilt tripper since mums were invented (just kidding!). I don't know about you but I've been a to-do lister since way back. I love writing...
We have to write the story as we go
I distinctly remember being 15 and sitting in an assembly with my classmates, being addressed by the deputy principal. We were told that it was that exciting time in our high school lives when we got to choose our subjects for our senior years. The joyous moment that...
It’s Time To Stop Playing Small
In the interest of being completely open and authentic with you, I had to share this piece of free writing I did less than four months ago. I actually forgot about it and just stumbled upon it and instantly thought, 'wow, I have to share this with the tribe (i.e...
When The Post-Its Fall Into Place

Why Fear and Failure Are Your New Best Friends
When I was a kid, I was afraid of everything. I would watch movies (even non-scary ones) and lie in bed at night freaking out about them. I was scared to answer the phone because I didn't know who was on the other end. I feared going to school the next day in case...
28 Things That Took Me 28 Years To Learn
Today is my 29th birthday. To say that my 28th year has been wonderful is an understatement. But it wouldn't be a huge exaggeration to say that it also contained some of my biggest challenges to date. The older I get, the more I realise that I don't know. Funny...
Something In The Air
Have you noticed it? Something in the air? It's as though, with the change of seasons, something huge has suddenly come into play. Whilst it hasn't revealed itself yet, there is a definite vibe of 'change is coming' out there in the ether, far beyond my comprehension....
The Power of You
Have you ever considered the power of you? You might take a second every now and again to consider the impact that you have on your family or close circle of friends, or even the mark you might have left on people you come into contact with every now and again but, I...
