If you have a mortgage, you're going to well and truly be feeling the impact of these interest rate rises that we're currently experiencing. But if you don't have a mortgage and you're hoping to buy soon or if you're planning to upgrade your home and increase your mortgage, the rising interest rate will have an impact on your borrowing capacity that you [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]
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 [...]

For those of us without fixed interest rates, these rate increases are hitting us pretty hard. Due to the incredibly long period of stability, we're no longer used to the "variable" component of our variable interest rate. This is having some noticeable effects on the property market: Decline in auction clearance rates as properties aren't always reaching the vendor's reserve Decline in property [...]
On Monday we celebrated International Daughter’s Day. I don’t really know what these types of days are supposed to signify or how they should be celebrated other than posting photos of you with your daughter on your socials. But I don’t have a daughter. I do have 4 gorgeous sons who fill me with love, laughter and eye rolls daily, but no daughters. So [...]
Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve seen and heard a lot about traditions. To some, they are beautiful, meaningful and respectful. To others, they’re outdated, no longer meaningful and trapped in a world that no longer exists. Which got me thinking about the traditions or “norms” in myself, my business, my family and community. What are our traditions? What have we lost over [...]
Are there things in your life that undergo an annual review? I was talking to a friend the other day (who also happens to be a nurse) and she was saying that just like we service our car every year (or more often if you drive a lot), we should be having a medical check up every year. I tend to leave going to [...]
Spring is finally here and I always think it brings a hint of optimism with it. It's time to shake things off and bring out the new. It's the perfect time to spring clean your home, sort out your wardrobe and anything else that could do with a review, tidy up or starting fresh with anything that's no longer working for you. For the [...]
