When your partner doesn’t meet your needs in a relationship, it’s tough. Even when you’re in a relationship, you can end up feeling isolated and alone. From the hug when you walk in the door to support talking through a family crisis; from sharing the financial load to really listening when you want to open […]

Most of us know what worry feels like. But when it comes to how worry works – and what we can do to overcome it – the answers are less clear. Worry is something that’s familiar to lots of women, and research reveals just how much more of an issue it is for us than […]

It’s different for all of us – that place we slip into when we’re not at our best. Is it the tone in your voice that has your partner shrinking from you when you snap at them after a tough day at work? Or the hopeless, helpless feeling you get when you say “sure” to […]

Written down, it might sound ridiculous. You’re a fully grown, capable, intelligent woman, after all. And yet, in the back of your mind, it’s there – a fear of getting in trouble of some kind, whether with a boss, client, colleague or even family member. If you dread the thought of being on the receiving […]

What’s the difference between goals and dreams? Are they simply different words for talking about what’s essentially the same thing, or is there a distinction between them when it comes to creating the future you want? The language you use to describe what you’re doing matters. Knowing what your aim is can give you access […]

When you can’t make a decision the feeling of mounting pressure can be intense – and the impact of not taking action can be bigger than you think. A while ago I coached a woman who absolutely hated her job. I mean, really hated it. She described herself as “feeling slowly suffocated” by the time […]

Have you ever got to the point of total overwhelm and exhaustion… not because you didn’t have the support around you, but because you just didn’t know how to ask for help?
