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.

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 […]

Resolutions, intentions, setting goals, your “word of the year”… a new calendar year is a potent time for imagining something different. What change do you want to see in your life in the coming 12 months? Whether it’s your job, your marriage, or the way you feel when you look in the mirror – you […]
