It also saves time and mind power by not having to think about [...]

How often do you practice self care?

2024-07-10T08:11:27+10:00July 10th, 2024|lifestyle|

It might be something as simple (and necessary) as going to the gym or for a long walk, getting a massage, practising meditation or locking yourself away with a good book for an hour. It might be something as indulgent as a trip to a health retreat or a weekend away with your best mates. Whatever it is, I'm here to remind you (and [...]

Are you managing your debt effectively?

2024-07-03T08:08:52+10:00July 3rd, 2024|Home loan|

If you're anything like my Instagram or Facebook friends (and even my real life friends!), chances are high that you've either just returned from a winter break, you're about to leave on one or you're planning something fabulous to escape the cold and explore the world. I love everything about holidays and really love to see that our freedom to explore has returned and [...]

Growth mindset

2024-06-26T09:10:20+10:00June 26th, 2024|Tips|

I’ve been noticing lately that my approach to challenges can vary greatly depending on what those challenges are. I have quite a competitive nature so if I think it’s something I can win or achieve, I tend to tackle it head on. If the challenge is out of my skill set or interest, I tend to avoid it, delegate it or deny it ever [...]

A Winning Combination

I recently read an article in a magazine about the power of mindset and mindfulness. Each of these alone have an incredibly powerful impact on the results we achieve, but when used together, they are a powerhouse - a truly winning combination.

Are you still open to learning?

2024-05-29T09:29:33+10:00May 29th, 2024|lifestyle|

Who are your mentors? Who inspires you? Who do you learn from? As we get older I've found that our mind tends to shut down a little to learning because we kinda know a lot. We've got experience, we've achieved stuff, we've had successes. But, in my experience, I've found that I have so much more to learn. I just have to find the [...]

What’s the plan?

2024-05-22T08:23:12+10:00May 22nd, 2024|lifestyle|

What’s the plan? Are you an organiser or a “fly-by-the-seat-of-your-pants” type? Planning is something that I either excel at or is a complete nightmare.

Totally unstoppable, laser focused and determined to tick off every item. It’s like I’m an athlete [...]

This morning I came to the big realisation that I’ve been running lately - not physically - just mentally. And I don’t like it. I’m trying to do too much - at work, at home, socially - the lists just keep getting longer and it’s adding unnecessary stress to my days. The song that plays on my alarm is “Last Request” by Paolo Nutini. [...]
