24 tons of chicken shit. That was my Valentine’s Day present in 2024. This was much better than a bag of chocolate covered M&Ms that a man, who wanted to marry me and boasted about his net worth, gave me after two years of dating ..read more

As a body confidence coach and fitness presenter, one thing that I know for sure is that we have to find ways to do and enjoy the things that we love doing. For me, this is movement. I trained as a dancer and fitness presenter in my early life and have been teaching fitness related workouts and classes all through my life, for which I am so grateful.
However, I also have chronic Arthritis in my feet, toes, spine and fingers. At one point I thought that I would never walk again, let alone dance. However, our bodies are truly amazing and over the years, I have learnt how to adapt my movements s ..read more

I don’t know about you, but there have been different times when I’ve looked around my home and felt overwhelmed by the sheer clutter. Perhaps work kept me so busy that my house took a back seat in my list of priorities. This neglect has somehow turned into a level of hoarding.
One day, you look around and realise that something needs to be done to get your home organised again. So, how do you begin?
First, it’s essential to understand hoarding. Hoarding is a condition characterised by the excessive accumulation of items and the difficulty of discarding them, leading to cluttered and often un ..read more

In the intricate tapestry of human interactions and societal dynamics, the question of responsibility often emerges as a central theme. From personal relationships to global issues, determining whose problem it is can be a challenging endeavour. Whose problem is it anyway? For me, this question is the essence of this dilemma, and asking it prompts reflection on accountability, empathy, and the interconnectedness of our shared existence.
Individual Responsibility
At the micro level, individual responsibility plays a crucial role in shaping our daily interactions. In personal relationships, con ..read more

Love and fear are often on the opposite ends of the spectrum. But they also go hand in hand.
Speaking of Love
Volumes have been written about love in its many forms – romantic, friendship, familial, universal, practical, and self-love – to name a few. When we hear the word “love” we may even picture an actual example of one of the types of love. I just spent a couple of days with my four sisters at a lovely resort which we try to do at least annually. We shopped together, shared family stories, expressed concerns, and enjoyed good food and music. I feel so blessed for my siblings’ familial lo ..read more

Staying connected with your grandchildren when they live far away can be challenging. Believe me, I know! I have seven grandchildren ranging from 20 years old to 11 months old. All but one live in Southern California, and I live in North Carolina. That’s practically a country apart! I admit, it’s been challenging to stay connected as there are extenuating circumstances surrounding most of the grandchildren.
I wish I had known about the ideas you’re about to read as I believe it would have made the connection between all of us stronger.
On the positive side, living far from your grandchildren ..read more
