What is Self-Love anyway?
Happy Valentine’s Day. Are you surrounded by bears and chocolate and flowers for Valentine’s Day or are you ignoring it completely? As a single woman, I don’t take a lot of notice of Valentine’s Day, but as a coach, Valentine’s Day always strikes me as a great time to think about Self-Love. Yes it is…

Self-Love and The Longest Winter
It’s been a bloody long winter here in the UK. We don’t normally get bad winters here – we usually get a cold snap, but also some mild months. This year it’s been fecking cold all the way through…and another cold ‘snap’ is settling in now, bringing snow and brass monkey temperatures. You may have…

Do you work on your feel-good foundations?
I’ve been thinking about how much you work on your feel-good foundations. I check in most days with my foundations to keep an eye on them. I have daily practices that support my self-care, joy, energy, and self-love. But deliberately working on them? Not really. I need a challenge (like Joy Challenge every April) to…

What is your body telling you right now?
I’ve had 4 migraines in 3 weeks. Plus a stung foot that led to all sorts of fun with antihistamine, itching, swelling, and ended up with me worshipping the mighty Aloe Vera plant. So it got me thinking: What is your body telling you right now? And are you listening? My body was telling me…

Measuring Your Feel-Good Foundations
At the heart of my coaching program is something I call the Feel Good Foundations – they are self-care, joy, energy, and self-love. If these 4 foundations are strong, life is easier, achieving goals and ambitions is easier and life is a great deal more fun! I’m writing the book on this as we speak…

I’ve been asking over on my Facebook page what stops people from loving their lives right now. Obviously it’s tough times at the moment – crazy killer virus, lockdown, job stress and uncertainty, financial stress, future stress, the list goes on and on. So what exactly is stopping you from loving life right now? Before…

Er, Crazy, Killer, Virus?
This article is a fictional conversation between a coach and a client. It was first written in May – mid lockdown in the UK, but it’s still just as relevant now. This fictional conversation is an amalgamation of several conversations I had in April, May and beyond. Do you recognise anything in this chat? Client:…

Don’t forget the most important person in your life today (you)
This week, I got love on my mind. But not the love covered by intimate dinners, big cards and a profusion of red hearts all over the place. I’m thinking Self-love. The Valentine’s kissy-kissy love is all fabulous…but I also want you to be making sure you’re loving yourself, whether you’re loved-up or single. Because your…

Smash the glass ceilings
In May we had Feeling Good month in the Fall in Love With Life group, so I got thinking about the limits and barriers we have to feeling good. The previous month I did my 3rd Joy Challenge with Amina Mahkdoom Lynch. Last year I hit a glass ceiling of joy – like there was only…

Appreciate your body
I woke up in the early hours the other morning, with my bladder telling me it was time to go for a pee. And I had a sudden wave of gratitude for my bladder, which does a lot of work on my behalf, with no thanks, no appreciation, and mostly without being noticed at all.…
