Ahhh we’ve all been there, so many ideas in our head and none of them come to fruition!  Instead we keep busy with work and the kids, get distracted by finances and day-to-day living, resulting in us putting those health & fitness goals, exciting business ideas, and big dreams on hold – we literally hold ourselves back and watch the weeks, months and years fly by along with the belief, confidence, excitement and drive we started with! What a sad reality it is that so many women are holding back sharing their talents, skills, and strengths from the world!  We all know that it’s e ..read more

Calling all perfectionists: A magic formula for consistency

Often it’s overwhelming when you want to make a positive change in your life. As women, we tend to put a lot of pressure on ourselves to get things right. We want and often wait to have things set up perfectly before taking the first step and never get around to making the changes we want to make.  We get blurred vision when we put our perfectionism first and find it hard to start. We need to focus on progress, not perfection when making a positive change in life.  “The goal is progress, not perfection.” The formula is to help you shift your focus to progress, not perfection, is the ..read more

Do you ever go on holiday and say, ‘when I get back home, I’m going to do this.’ ‘This’ could be anything – new habits, fun activities, new hobbies, relaxing… but fall back into your old habits pretty much straight away?  Taking ourselves out of our usual environment, such as going on a holiday, makes us take a new perspective on how we live life, especially highlighting what’s not working or missing in your daily life.  Now, it’s not like we need to live out a holiday experience all the time, but we can re-evaluate and make some positive changes from our holiday experiences!  ..read more

Positive thoughts boost your mood and energy and cultivate even more positivity and happiness in your life. In reverse, negative thoughts can create a domino effect of destructive energy, and falling into a negative spiral affects how you live your life.  You don’t have to accept the negative thoughts and internal chatter. Instead, you can choose to switch to positive perception and reach for healthier, hopeful thoughts. Of course, it takes practice, but soon enough, your mind will move towards more positivity. Balancing act: hedonic and eudaimonic well-being In positive psychology, th ..read more

Summer is the time to wind down, to take some time out to relax and recharge for the hustle and bustle September brings.  During the summer months, routines change; for expats.  We visit our home countries, families take long trips during the six weeks off for the summer school holidays and workplaces tend to slow down. So it’s an opportunity to do something different, learn something new that perhaps you’ve wanted to start but never got around to doing in your day-to-day routine and have some fun! I like to set a summer goal, something that is out of my usual routine, to broaden my ..read more

Do you relate?  You’re in the job you worked hard to get – and now you feel that you want to do something different?  Or perhaps you’re living a good life but not feeling a sense of purpose or meaning?

What I see as a coach is that when goal setting goes wrong, it’s not the person failing; it’s the process failing them.  I don’t think we need to reinvent the wheel here. Although I’ve seen many goals go wrong as a coach, the easiest way to prevent your goals from going wrong is to learn from others’ mistakes! Here are 7 goal setting mistakes you can learn from: Starting in your ‘panic zone.’  We have 3 zones of comfort;  Comfort zone: stress-free, “doing OK,” no dramas, happy, content Stretch zone: pushing performance, high effort, improving, excitement, adrenaline, growth P ..read more

Decision-making can be a challenge, especially when experiencing feelings of worry or anxiety. Unfortunately, it’s also easy to lose sight of what you think in a world of watching others’ lives on social media, often getting caught in the trap of focusing on what you ‘should’ be doing instead of what you want or need to be doing.  As a coach, I help people make decisions every day, not by telling them what to do but by helping them gain perspective on their own lives and what they need to be doing to reach their full potential.  When you decide, no matter how big or small, it is lik ..read more
