Here is my recipe for homemade coleslaw, I personally don’t like ones made with all mayo, so I do 50/50 mayo and creme fraiche I find this makes it a bit lighter, I also add in apple and seeds to give some extra flavour and crunch. Ingredients: 1/2 Red cabbage 3 Carrot 1 Onion 1Continue reading “Seeded Apple Coleslaw”

February 2020 – Rock Bottom
This month has been truly rubbish!! At times I’ve felt completely hopeless and helpless. In fact, I felt like I’d hit rock bottom, this caused lots of tears, many sleepless nights and feeling like a complete failure. Getting a job I’ve found is actually not that easy, applications I’ve submitted for jobs where I thoughtContinue reading “February 2020 – Rock Bottom”
January 2020 – So many possibilities
I’m always a little apprehensive about the start of a new year and this year it’s a new decade too. I guess it’s a mixture of the excitement of what the year might bring but also the overwhelming feeling of fear for the next twelve months and not repeating behaviours that haven’t serve me wellContinue reading “January 2020 – So many possibilities”
December – Adjusting, reflecting and looking forward
Firstly, just wanted to say thank you to all the people who contacted me after last month’s post was published to offer me support, share their own stories and much more. The job hunt begins which is quite a scary prospects for many reasons, I’ve not applied for a job for over 13 years soContinue reading “December – Adjusting, reflecting and looking forward”
November – Tough Decision
So this month as with every other month this year it would seem that it whizzed by and before I knew it, it was December. I have to admit that I’ve run through what to write in this blog 10s of times in the last few days as writing down stuff really brings it homeContinue reading “November – Tough Decision”
October – A little help from friends
So here are again, another month completed!! These months seem to come and go in a blink of an eye. This past month like many before it has been quite a challenge as I’m determined to get through my current situation by learning lessons from the past and changing my behaviour & mindset to getContinue reading “October – A little help from friends”
120 Day challenge
As we are 2/3rd through 2019 and just 120 days until the end of the year I’ve decided that I’m going to do a few things daily for the next 120 days. Nothing huge just a few small actions that will move me towards being a better me!! Meditate or do some mindfulness practice forContinue reading “120 Day challenge”
August – Lifting Fog
So the start of the month continued in the same vein as July with feeling pretty down/sad and in a way defeated. My situation hasn’t really changed much and not really sure where the month has gone, I’ve had some dark days where just doing life has been a challenge when I’ve been out inContinue reading “August – Lifting Fog”
July – Disconnected
July has really been a bit of a blur, I’ve felt quite disconnected from the world. Just going through the motions of everyday life! From the outside world, it would seem everything is normal but from my perspective, I’ve just not been really present emotionally. Halfway through the month I was informed that the retainedContinue reading “July – Disconnected”
June – Taking Stock
As with every other month this year, it would seem the start of this one was a crazy one with another trip down South to deliver a short workshop for a global company. I absolutely love to do this kind of work as it really plays to my strengths and really is what is atContinue reading “June – Taking Stock”
