Merry Christmas!

Blogmas Day 24. I can’t believe it! Today’s post marks the last day of Blogmas and it’s been a true joy. Thank you for reading. All that remains for me to say is Merry Christmas. Whatever you do and whoever you’re with, I wish you grace, peace and hope. I’m sure that’s how Jesus wouldContinue reading “Merry Christmas!”

Promises, Promises…

Blogmas Day 23. I read a tweet the other day that said something along the lines of “Where are all the vision and goal-setting memes and quotes in the run-up to 2022? 2020 and 2021 have made us all mighty quiet…”. Ain’t that the truth. The atmosphere of uncertainty about our current situation and theContinue reading “Promises, Promises…”

So, Like… Why Though?

Blogmas Day 22. Twenty-two days (almost) of writing every day. Do I, generally speaking, consider myself a writer? No. But I know better now than to write myself off from describing myself as anything. So why would I do this? Well, back in 2017 when I was away on one of my retreats, a womanContinue reading “So, Like… Why Though?”

Better Every Day…

Blogmas Day 21. I was woken by my 10 year old nephew this morning. “What day is it today?” I don’t know about you but days are completely lost to me lately. Pfft!- lately? Let’s try the last couple of years. When I got my wits together and consulted my calendar I exclaimed, “It’s theContinue reading “Better Every Day…”

Last Show of the Year!

Blogmas Day 12. I’ve not had a post-show nap today and it’s now 10:30pm. I’m surprisingly still full of beans – well, not full to the brim but more than half way. It’s not just down to today’s Matcha Green Tea with Ginseng, it’s – as my producer described it – De-mob happiness. I’ve stillContinue reading “Last Show of the Year!”

Growth Mindset.

Blogmas Day 10. Sorry – 11. You see, what had happened was… I will not list excuses. I will not list excuses. I will not list excuses. Ok, it’s out there. I missed a day. I set myself a writing challenge to blog every day of advent – 24 days – and I missed aContinue reading “Growth Mindset.”

It’s all gone a bit “woo”…

Blogmas Day 9. What a day! You know those days when you’re super busy and literally every second is accounted for but you feel satisfied at the end that it was a good, productive day? For me, they don’t come around often enough but when they do, they’re sweet. That said, it’s very close toContinue reading “It’s all gone a bit “woo”…”

Self-Help vs Help-Help

Blogmas Day 8 Self-help is all the rage. Heck, I showed you my reading list for 2021 and a large proportion of that could be categorised as ‘Self-Help’. But is it really helpful though? I won’t be with you long today but one of the lessons that has emerged from this year is the necessityContinue reading “Self-Help vs Help-Help”

Trust The Timing of Your Life.

Blogmas Day 7. First off, let me update you on my tea advent calendar. Today’s offering is delicious. I’m very much enjoying my evening ritual of an obnoxiously large mug of advent tea and writing this daily blog. This is not something I would have imagined even 2 weeks ago. Funny how things work out.Continue reading “Trust The Timing of Your Life.”

The Power of Vision

Blogmas Day 6. I have a deadline to meet. It’s this Wednesday and I could possibly have met the deadline tonight but I am a natural procrastinator*. When I was at Secondary school, I first came across the quote “If it wasn’t for the last minute, nothing would get done” and at the time nothingContinue reading “The Power of Vision”
