  • Podcast: What obstacles are in the way of your Big Dream?

    I often hear from clients that “something” is stopping them. This something is usually un-named, indistinct, and unclear. My first question after the “something is stopping me” conversation is “What is stopping you?” What exactly is the “something”. Often, we don’t want to look at the “Something” – it’s monster under the bed syndrome! But…

  • Podcast: When Your Big Dream Seems Far Away

    Sometimes our Big Dreams seem to be so close we can almost touch them…other times, they seem so far away we start to wonder if there is any point continuing. The good news is that this is just a part of the Big Dream journey. Not a pleasant one perhaps, but not an unusual one!…

  • Oh Lord, It’s Hard To Be Humble…

    I woke up the other day with this song flying around my head – for about the first hour of the day I found myself singing ‘oh lord, it’s hard to be humble…when you’re perfect in every way…’ Most peculiar as I NEVER listen to this song. I don’t own it, I haven’t heard it…

  • Announcing the September Daily Practice: Feel How You Feel

    This practice, may, at first look, seem a bit of an odd one. After all, how can you feel anything other than what you feel? But so often, we do not allow ourselves to feel how we feel – either because the emotion is a ‘bad’ one, or because there’s no point feeling joyful because…

  • Control the Controllable

    It’s another Olympic Inspired Post! Sorry, I’ll get over the Olympics soon…honest. I have been fascinated by the interviews with the Olympic athletes. Their stories are often inspirational, they have a great mindset, and they have a lot of great wisdom that translates into ‘ordinary’ life. Here’s another one: Control the Controllable How often do…

  • Follow Your Instincts

    How many times have you not followed your instincts and realised with hindsight that you really should have done? We’ve all been there haven’t we, our inner wisdom is gently whispering ‘do this’, and we let fear, logic, or over-thinking stop us. Take my monthly newsletter for example. I know that a change needs to…
