I’ve been a qualified nutritionist for over 12 years and a personal trainer for 18 years, this was way before social media, fitpros and influencers existed as we know them today. The principles and values I stand by today around food, fitness and health are the same as the ones I had even before IContinue reading “Slow and steady wins the day”

May 2020 – Stop and stare
Another month has gone by and it’s been quite a transformative month for me and my mindset. Some of the motivation I get from doing things for others is that I don’t want any of my friends and loved ones to feel like I do sometimes. So just after lockdown started I decided that IContinue reading “May 2020 – Stop and stare”
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”
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”
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”
Easter Digital Detox
As much as we are all probably more connected with each other than ever before somehow sometimes we can feel totally disconnected with ourselves!! It feels that we are constantly bombarded with information and notifications and yes you have a choice whether to respond and engage with these however at times it can seem tooContinue reading “Easter Digital Detox”
End of the tunnel?!?
Over the last few days/weeks things for me have shifted, don’t know when or how but they have, well in my mind they have anyway!! For probably the past 18 months I’ve kind of got sucked into focusing on my challenges and the lack in my life rather than focus on the positives and abundance.Continue reading “End of the tunnel?!?”
It’s not always what it seems
As this is mental health awareness week #MHAW17 I thought I would share a story with you. Last July I had a small mental health crisis – a kind of a breakdown. I now see it as the breakthrough I needed to move forward but at the time it was scary and I wasn’t sureContinue reading “It’s not always what it seems”
Journey of discovery…
For as long as I can remember I’ve suffered from low self-belief/confidence & esteem, you might be surprised at this as I’ve become very good at hiding it and putting on a front/game-face when I’m out and about, be this at a networking event or presenting in front of a room full of people. AtContinue reading “Journey of discovery…”
