Break the Bias IWD
The theme for International Women’s Day (8th March) this year is Break the Bias. I had a look at the official IWD website to understand their message and realized that I couldn’t say it better myself, so here it is… Imagine a gender-equal world. A world is free of bias, stereotypes, and discrimination. A […]
You Need a Vision Board
Why do I say to women you need a Vision Board? Because everything we want in life first starts as a thought and this thought creates a picture. From that picture, we can draw up a plan and take action to make the dreams we have for our life and work a reality. Sounds […]
Valentine’s Day – Relationships
As Valentine’s Day approaches I’d like to share with you how to create a relationship that meets your needs. This could be important if you are single and searching for that next special person, or if you want to improve the relationship you are in. One way of doing this is to find out […]
Life is Difficult
The first sentence in M. Scott Peck’s book, The Road Less Travelled is “life is difficult.” I remember feeling a sense of relief when I first read this – because, for years, I thought I was the only person in the whole world who found the daily grind challenging. I used to think there […]

I love books and was thrilled to receive the biography of New Zealand Prime Minister, Jacinda Ardern, entitled “A New Kind of Leader.” I like reading about women who have goals and ambition, plus a big heart and open mind, so I thoroughly enjoyed this […]
New Year, New Mindset!
Many people say to me, “I want this year to be different.” And it can be. Not by wishful thinking but by truly seeking change, committing to change, and being willing to do whatever it takes, because nothing will change if you change nothing! Do you have any idea what has held you back […]
Arguing is Good for You
If done correctly, arguing can be good for your health, your mindset, and your relationships! I used to shy away from confrontation, but over the years I have learned that arguing is good for you. Growing up, a lot of issues I had with others were brushed under the carpet. I didn’t want to upset […]
Does Positive Thinking Work?
As a professional coach, I help women understand their emotions so they can make sense of how they feel and how to quickly improve their mental and emotional state. One way of doing this is through the power of positive thinking. Now I hear the skeptics ask, “does positive thinking work?” Many studies […]
