Want to stop feeling tired? Maybe that’s a silly question. A lot of us get so used to ‘running on empty’ we barely register we’re exhausted any more. But having energy to do the things you want to isn’t a luxury. It’s essential if you’re going to have the impact you’re capable of. What’s more, […]

Finances are quickly becoming a priority for lots of us these days. Whether you’re already noticing your budget’s squeezed more than usual, or just “get finances sorted” to the long list of things you really ought to make some time to think about it can be hard to know where to start. After all, there’s […]

I often hear women talk about “work-life balance” as the golden key to having it all – the career, the family, the friendships, and some elusive concept of self-care. It’s an idea that seems so logical on the surface, but over years of working with incredible women, I’ve come to see the cracks in this […]

When it comes to taking care of yourself, making sure you’re in optimum health has got to be a priority for all of us. It’s fundamental, isn’t it – if we’re not physically doing OK, there’s no way we can perform at our best intellectually, emotionally, or spiritually. If you’re sick, injured or unwell, you’re […]

When was the last time you found yourself in a conversation that really mattered—where the stakes were high, and you knew you needed to show up fully? Maybe it was negotiating your salary, asking for a promotion, or standing up for yourself in a difficult situation. These moments can be daunting, but with the right […]

We’ve all been there—feeling like we’re spinning a million plates in the air, running from one task to another, and barely able to catch our breath. Whether you’re running a business, leading a team, or juggling multiple projects, overwhelm can creep in fast and leave you feeling completely stuck. It’s that feeling when everything seems […]

This year marks a monumental milestone for us at One of many—ten years of community, transformation, and growth. As I stood at our 10th Anniversary Gala reflecting on this journey, I found myself in awe of how far we’ve come and the extraordinary women (and men!) who’ve been part of this adventure. I’ve learned so […]

Clarity. We all want it. I now know how to get it.  But curiously, at the age of 18, I had it in spades. I knew what was wrong with the world and what needed fixing. What was wrong with everyone else. And why I was right. Oh, the naivety of youth. Is it just […]

This is highly important, critical, and urgent.  You are more than a resource. You cannot be expected to be indefatigable and constantly productive. Yet, this is the pressure that society puts on us—especially on women, who are more often expected to excel in multiple roles simultaneously (career, family, community, and more). This mindset is deeply […]

The truth is: we need more women in leadership. And yet… the Superwoman myth often deters women from stepping into their leadership potential due to fear of burnout and unattainable expectations.But let’s redefine leadership for a second… It’s not about your title, who you have power over, or how big your salary is. Leadership can […]
