It’s time to switch the focus

2023-04-12T08:10:40+10:00April 12th, 2023|lifestyle|

Sometimes I get a bit lost in lists. I have lists of things to do for customers, lists for my business, lists for my team, my family, my shopping… And they all list, sometimes in great detail, the things I have to do for other people. Which is great because it keeps me organised and on task. But sometimes I really need to focus [...]

It can’t possibly take 138 years, can it?

As a female business owner, employing a team of fabulous women, with a mission of empowering women to take control of their finances, International Women’s Day is a big deal to me. It’s really not so long ago that life was very different for us. We were often stay at home mothers, prohibited to even work once we were married, let alone own [...]

Remarkable young woman doing remarkable things

2023-03-01T09:06:56+10:00March 1st, 2023|lifestyle|

I was reading about a young Australian woman the other day who is the youngest person to complete the Polar Hat Trick. I didn’t even know what the “Polar Hat Trick” was so I did some more research, and found that this young woman is truly remarkable. Let me list the feats of Jade Hameister: In 2013, at age 12 Jade completed the trek [...]

Are you stuck in the cycle of busy-ness?

2023-02-22T08:18:13+10:00February 22nd, 2023|lifestyle|

It can be a bit like a trap that turns into a hamster wheel that just seems to have no exit and you just keep running! Do you know the feeling? So, how do you stop? Seems to me that there are three choices: 1. jump off the hamster wheel and hope for the best 2. keep running until a stretcher arrives to forcibly [...]

An important decision to make – every day

2023-02-15T08:56:43+10:00February 15th, 2023|lifestyle|

I was watching an interview on the weekend with an incredibly charismatic 76 year old woman from New York. She shared many gems and little nuggets of wisdom during the 45 minutes we had together, but one really stuck with me.   She said, “Every morning when you wake up, you have a decision to make. Are you going to be your own best [...]

This Christmas give the gift of kindness

2022-12-21T09:22:23+10:00December 21st, 2022|lifestyle|

For so many of us, Christmas is a beautiful time of year to spend with loved ones. If we have young kids, there’s the whole excitement of Santa Claus and all the joy and excitement he brings. If we have teenagers, it’s the challenge of getting them out of bed and smiling before noon (truly a Christmas miracle if both of these things occur [...]

Planning for 2023

2022-12-07T11:56:51+10:00December 7th, 2022|lifestyle|

Another year is coming to an end and they just seem to be flying by faster and faster! Do you feel the same? For me, I think it's a great reminder to make every day count. Whether it's a day at work, a day with family, friends or on my own, I want to get the most out of every day. But I don't [...]

Getting summer house ready

2022-10-31T17:07:46+10:00October 31st, 2022|lifestyle|

We’ve all heard of getting “summer body” ready, but what about getting “summer house” ready. I love this change of season because we can throw off the old, heavy layers and reveal all that beauty that has been hiding out for the winter. So I thought I’d share my things to do list with you. 1. Spend a day in the garden. Poison or [...]

Getting organised

2022-10-27T08:46:24+10:00October 27th, 2022|lifestyle|

Being organised is something that I either excel at or is a complete nightmare. On the good days I power through my list, like a master of productivity. Totally unstoppable, laser focused and determined to tick off every item. It's like I'm an athlete in the high performance zone! Other days (thankfully not often) I don't even get to look at my list because [...]

Aussies supporting Aussies

2022-10-19T09:06:31+10:00October 19th, 2022|lifestyle|

I was reading an email on the weekend from a woman named Grace Brennan who started an Instagram page called Buy From The Bush (#BFTB) in an effort to do something practical to help people living in the country and struggling to survive the drought. So much has happened in the three years since its inception but this little page survived and became a [...]
