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!).

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? […]

Are relationships about compromise? In 2011, Madonna was quoted as saying: “The older I get, the more I understand about the nature of relationships and how to have a successful one. The more I realize that it has to do with compromise and sacrifice and that’s just the way it goes. And unless you want […]

Do you ever feel lonely? For many women, a feeling that no-one really “sees” who we are is one that looms ever larger in our lives these days. And yet – we’re surrounded by people.

When did you last stop yourself from sharing your opinion because of fear of what other people might think? For fear that they might judge you as silly, weird or ridiculous? Overly emotional or boring? Too “woo-woo” or too practical? Too much or not enough??! Or the worst: that they might think ‘who does she […]

I know you are a gorgeous, unique and brilliant woman, but does the way you dress reflect that? In my experience, women who are on a personal growth journey often have a yearning to have a fabulous style but lack the know-how, ideas and confidence to make the up level. I see our clothes as […]
