It’s International Women’s Day. A movement which is championing gender equality. A world free of bias, stereotypes and discrimination. I can’t believe we are having to imagine it. Why it isn’t in existence already? Yet according to the UN, gender equality is still 300 years away. Estimates say it will take 286 years to close […]

I truly believe we could change the world if we all just listened better.  Deeply.  With reverence.  To the humanity, challenges, hopes and dreams of those around us. Yes we need action too.  But in order to take right action we need to deeply listen. In this extract from a recent workshop, I teach our […]

I’m going to make a broad sweeping statement which I have no way of backing up, but which feels true for me. And when I share this with other women, it seems to resonate deeply for them too. I believe women have been sold a lie. That lie is this: in order to be of […]

I don’t normally talk about matters of a spiritual nature as part of my work with One of many, lest I be judged too woo woo, and not taken seriously in the work I do. But I’m taking a risk this week, as it feels important. I am feeling deeply blessed. Not in the social […]

If you’ve been suffering from symptoms of hormone imbalance (whether you’re pre, peri or post-menopause), hormone testing can often be the missing link in your journey back to full health. Doctors will often say that hormone testing is not worth doing, especially during peri-menopause. It’s too unreliable as hormones are often fluctuating throughout the month. And […]

As a child, did you ever imagine how fun it would be when you could “make all the rules”? When to go to bed (never!)… What to have for dinner (icecream!)… Who to allow in your special secret club (no boys!). Unfortunately, along with growing up comes the dawning realization that “making all the rules” […]

Do you find yourself worrying what people think of you? We’ve all been there – that sudden paralysis of panic when we think back to a conversation, an email or a message. “Did I come across as I meant to?” we ask ourselves, sweaty-palmed. “Did they think I was being weird/loud/arrogant/fake/stupid?” It can be tough […]

Want to know how to handle your inner critic? Right now, many of us are hearing that nit-picking little voice more than ever. And the things she comes out with can be spiteful. “You’re a terrible mother. How could you have scheduled yourself to lead a training on the day of your daughter’s nursery visit? […]
