Health is important to me because…

“Time and health are two precious assets that we don’t recognize and appreciate until they have been depleted.”– Denis Waitley We all know the benefits of having a healthy mind and a healthy body (more energy, less brain fog, fitter, stronger, more stamina, more rested and so forth) but how many of us consciously prioritize this area of our lives? Some may prioritize one over the other but to have optimal health these two cannot be separated! Here are some ways to enhance and

Respect is important to me because...

Respect. Words such as empathetic, kind, compassionate, and attentive are used when you think about being respectful toward others or to have respect for yourself. If you feel people do not show you respect ask yourself this question, ‘Are my actions and behaviour inviting respect from those I am engaging with or are they triggering defensive responses and reactions?’ Here are 8 ways you can enhance respect for yourself and others: Practice active listening and seek to unders

Belonging is important to me because...

There is a misconception that ‘fitting in’ is the same as ‘belonging’ when in reality it is the complete opposite. When I reflect upon the different areas of my life, from childhood to adulthood, and where I truly felt I belonged and where I thought I belonged but ultimately only tried to ‘fit in,’ they are worlds apart! I didn’t realise how ‘belonging’ was so important to me until I watched Brené Brown: The Call to Courage on Netflix. In fact, this realisation was so powerfu

Stop Comparing Yourself to Others

When I understood this life lesson I was finally able to start living my life on my terms Comparing yourself to others will rob you of your joy and self-worth. No two people have been on the same journey - that goes for being raised in the same household, having a lifelong partner, being twins etc. What you see is not always the truth - we all wear masks and show our 'best' side for the cameras! We all have hidden strengths - sometimes we just need to have the right environme

A Moment in Time and A Lifetime in Their Hearts

Way too often we are quick to highlight when our children, partners, work colleagues, students, wait staff, etc. do something wrong or not to our liking. Instead of pouncing on every opportunity to correct, reprimand, and advise what would the impact be if we focused on acknowledging, validating, and showing appreciation when we see them doing something well? Sometimes a smile, nod, wink, touch on the arm, or a simple 'Thank You for...' can make someone feel valued, worthy, a

Growth is important to me because...

Growth comes in all shapes and sizes and looks different for each person. Sometimes it can be in the form of educating yourself and getting that qualification or it can be building your self-confidence and being more assertive. It can also be about slowing down and taking the time to appreciate what you have. We are so busy rushing around and trying to live by other people's expectations that we forget to pause and say 'You know what, I love the way my life/relationship/work

Friendship is important to me because...

Friendships come in many layers and some are fleeting whilst others last the long haul. My 'friendship' pool is relatively small in comparison to the number of people I know. We all have our own definition of what friendship looks like to us. For me, friends are those special people with whom I feel a deep connection, where we have cultivated an environment in which we can be vulnerable, laugh and cry at life's challenges and the ridiculous. We support, challenge, and inspire

Never Apologize For Putting Your Family First

How one defines success is a very personal interpretation. When you have a family, building solid relationships, investing in memories over material possessions, and nurturing self-worth above securing other people's expectations of you may be your new life's purpose. Your present situation is not your final destination. It's never too late to start your own business, write that book, or change your career. These opportunities will always be available to you if you want them

Self-Worth is important to me because...

“Self-talk reflects your innermost feelings.” Dr. Asa Don Brown It took me a long time to build up this muscle. I still have moments of weakness but I am much more aware and mindful of WHY certain people, events, and comments trigger me. When I hit my 40s my tolerance level wore extremely thin for those who wanted to use me as their emotional punching bag. Now I am in my 50s my BS and narcissist detector is finely tuned and I have tools and strategies in place to shield and p
