Making the best of a tough situation

2021-07-07T10:41:48+10:00June 30th, 2021|lifestyle|

A whole lot of us have been plunged back into lockdown and it doesn’t feel great. Concerns over our health and financial security have arisen again, as has our sanity. For those of us with kids, I’m not sure if navigating home schooling was harder than dealing with the disappointment of lost holiday plans and lack of structure. But we will get through this. [...]

Are you looking for more?

2021-06-28T16:35:55+10:00June 23rd, 2021|lifestyle|

Over the last 12 months we've seen a huge increase in demand for regional properties. Many people are looking for a sea change or a tree change. They're being driven from the cities looking for "more". Whether that "more" is a slower pace, more connection to family or nature, more time to do things other than work, less financial strain with a smaller mortgage, [...]

Self Care

2021-05-14T13:40:57+10:00May 4th, 2021|lifestyle|

Self care is such an important concept and one that is forgotten all too easily. The old adage “if you can’t look after yourself, you can’t look after anyone else” is so true, yet in our day to day life, especially as busy executives, we can get so busy doing things, putting out fires, solving problems, caring for others, that we run out of [...]

Taking time

2021-05-03T17:04:46+10:00April 27th, 2021|lifestyle|

Last night I took some time to stop, find a perfect viewing position and watch the rise of the pink super moon. It was one of the most beautiful sights I’ve ever seen. And what I really loved about it was all the other people around me who also stopped and took time to watch this moon rise. This isn’t normal in my experience. [...]

Is your wardrobe your biggest investment?

2021-02-02T11:14:52+10:00January 20th, 2021|lifestyle|

Whether it’s clothes, shoes, handbags, jewellery or watches, I get it. I love them too and am guilty of having the most amazing handbag and watch collection in my early 20s. But investing in your wardrobe is not the right thing to invest in if you want to get ahead financially. There will always be a reason to lash on out something to make [...]

Financial self care

2020-10-28T17:11:33+10:00October 21st, 2020|lifestyle|

I was reading a blog the other day from a US based financial planner and the writer was talking about Financial Self-Care and I just love this concept. Self care is something that is so important to both our physical and mental health that I just love the idea of moving it into the financial realm as well. The writer @Ellevest defined financial self [...]

Spring has sprung!

2020-10-05T15:41:44+10:00September 12th, 2020|lifestyle|

Summer is just around the corner and it’s my favourite time of year. It tells me that new beginnings are here. New opportunities for growth, fresh starts and spring cleaning (and I don’t just mean your home or wardrobe). The mornings are brighter, the days are getting longer and there seems to be more time to just get stuff done. It also signals to [...]

Decisions

2020-08-11T16:52:39+10:00August 11th, 2020|First home buyer, lifestyle, Tips|

How good are you at making them? How good are you at making sure those decisions are aligned with your goals? If you have a goal to buy a house or an investment property or save for a post COVID holiday or a new car or anything, what decisions are you making today that will impact your ability to reach your goal? If you're [...]

Connections

2020-06-16T02:00:23+10:00April 16th, 2020|lifestyle|

There’s one thing that’s really being highlighted around the world right now and that’s the importance of connection. It’s a basic human need that so many of us are being deprived of at the moment and it’s having a big impact on us. We can’t see family or friends, we can’t live life as we usually do and whilst we know that it’s all [...]
