It was my birthday this weekend, and my husband told me to set aside Saturday for a surprise. That was all I knew. No clues, no hints, just the promise of something special. I woke up that morning feeling open and ready to receive whatever the day had in store. We began somewhat inauspiciously, with […]

I’ve just returned from a week at La Dolce Vita for Coaches — a beautiful time I set aside to deepen my coaching skills and presence, in one of the most inspiring places on earth: Tuscany. Specifically, at Bagni di Pisa, a former ducal palace and now an exquisite spa hotel steeped in history and healing. […]

I love to explore the origins of a word. Come to understand it intimately, and fully. And in the process, explore how it might serve me and others. Today, I’ve chosen the word “rebel”. Interestingly both a verb and a noun. Rebel. It’s a word I’ve always loved. Indeed, to this day, I  have a […]

This past weekend, history was made. European golfers clinched victory in the Ryder Cup on American soil — the first time in many years. And they did so against a backdrop of heavy police presence, open hostility, and relentless abuse from US fans. The criticism wasn’t just directed at the team’s performance; it was deeply […]

The Autumn Equinox always reminds me of balance. That rare moment in the year when the sun rises due East and sets due West, when day and night hold equal sway. At least, that’s the idea. Here in London it’s not quite exact: 6:49am to 6:59pm, but near enough for me to pause and reflect. […]

This week marks a milestone for me: the very first workshop of a new program I’ve poured my heart and soul into creating. It’s been months in the making: crafting the content, shaping the flow, promoting it to my community, and ensuring it will deliver real value. This is important work, work that matters to […]

It’s fair to say I feel disappointed today. I’ve poured heart and soul into a new programme I’m developing for women leaders, and when I looked at the sign-ups, it wasn’t what I’d hoped for. In my head, I caught myself saying: *“No one is interested.”* Even as I write that, I know it isn’t […]

I’m sitting at my desk this morning, staring at a blank page, wondering what to say. It’s not that I have nothing to talk about. Quite the opposite. There are too many topics swirling around in my head, all of them vying for attention. Too many options to consider. And the more I have, the […]

This bank holiday Monday I was out at the allotment, doing some serious weeding and trimming. As I worked my way around a new bed I’d laid earlier this year, I noticed how quickly the grasses and creeping buttercup had invaded from all sides. It was time to reclaim the boundaries of the plot. The […]

The other day, one of my clients asked me a deceptively simple question: *what does success mean to you?* It made me pause. Because for so many women leaders I work with — and honestly, for most people — success is defined by the outcome. It’s the promotion, the new role, the finished project, the […]
