Purpose and Meaning – Lifting the fog to get to that crisp clear day
During a successful IT career, it’s common to find yourself questioning your sense of purpose. The leadership demands keep growing, the day job continues to ramp up, with a huge to-do list, and your own priorities stay towards the bottom. This can feel frustrating. At worst that frustration can turn inwards and become self-critical. The…

What’s your IKIGAI?! This is mine…
I’ve always found IKIGAI an inspiring model; the word being a Japanese term blending two words: “iki” – “to live” and “gai” – “reason”; a way of exploring what brings meaning in life, and of considering the intersection of different aspects that will bring the most joy and fulfilment. 🐣Have you created your IKIGAI? There…

Let The Sun Shine Through
Ignite Your Creative Fire: Break Free and Design Your Dream Life It’s been refreshing to see how when people spend time with me as their coach they leave feeling inspired, invigorated, and refreshed, with their next steps clearer.

(7) Thriving Through Small Steps: Embracing Change in the Now
“If change only ever happens in the now, what will you do with the next now?!” That was the topic I was musing on this morning.. If there are only ever a series of present moments – now, followed by now, followed by now, then change happens in the now, by taking one step, followed…

(6) Wellbeing, Career Change, and Growth – life lessons and new beginnings from growing bonsai seeds
The Wellbeing and Growth story continues.. life lessons and insight from watching seeds grow 🌱✨. The gift of a Bonsai tree, 3 years ago, from Heather Egginton, gave me so many insights and sparked an idea to measure progress against a Wellbeing mission by visualising the action I was taking as leaves on a tree…

(5) This is what I’m up to; this is why; this is what it’s done (for myself and others)
In my fifth video I talk about a journey of Understanding the Human Experience, for the benefit of myself and others, and what it takes to get from that feeling of Impossible to Possible and the Power that comes with that⚡. I share a number of client testimonials where people have moved from self-doubt into…

(4) Trusting knowing; one step providing so much more data and energy on what to do next..
Is there anywhere you have a knowing, when just one step might provide more information? I was observing today how natural it is to have a knowing but still go to thinking through the options first; and yet taking action from that place of knowing, rather than thinking about it, just taking one step, provides…

(3) The Power in seeing “All of me” and a coach seeing “All of you.” So much happens from there ✨
I was reflecting today, as I recorded the third video in my 100 YouTube challenge, in the power of embracing/believing in/seeing all of oneself/another person. The feeling, afterwards, is like Pac-Man on a Power Pellet – suddenly things that were getting in the way feel inconsequential 👻. The flow state is back. Energy returned. Unstoppable.…

100 YouTube challenge – (2) You Know When You Know
In thinking about what to share for day 2 of the YouTube challenge I set for myself, to iterate and learn whilst creating a bank of 100 videos, I woke this morning with a sense of knowing. I’d spent the weekend thinking about Where will the content come from? And trying to become extra aware…

100 YouTube Video Challenge – Learning through Doing
It’s been powerful to see how we learn by doing vs thinking about doing. So often we can find ourselves thinking about the next few steps, rather than taking the first one. I’ve seen how, when taking the first one, more information becomes available on what to do next. And so on. So when Stephanie…
