This week is air ambulance week! And as our family used the air ambulance 10 years and 3 weeks ago, I definitely wanted to write a post to share my appreciation for what they do.

But how do you do that? Do you somehow twist and turn it into a business post?

I definitely could. My husband's accident has eventually led to burnout. I then decided to take some time off to recover and start working again. Only to realise that I’m heading in the same direction again. So I signed up for my level 1 of Huna (Hawaiian energy work), which has led me to neurolinguistic programming, hypnosis and havening. All of them are the cornerstones of the therapy part of my business.

Or I could just say thank you! Thank you for getting him to the hospital within minutes, nice and smooth. Rather than a bumpy one-hour ride across the motorway. I remember seeing the chopper at the hospital when I arrived there an hour later. Grateful for him being assessed and treated for an hour already.

And as all this makes me a little emotional, I’m not deciding between the two options. You can choose which part resonates more with you.

David was getting ready for a speech at a conference and realised that he needed help.

This is what he said after working with me for two sessions.

I love that he points out the training that is coming along with the therapy I’m doing with my clients.

After working with me, you have a toolbox that you can use for public speaking - and for so many more things that push you out of your comfort zone.

In this video, I'm sharing a simple yet powerful tip about food and mindful eating that I wish I'd followed earlier today (and I'll tell you why!).

It’s not about dieting or deprivation.

It's a strategy to help you check in with your body and truly listen to what it needs.

This simple practice can help you avoid that heavy, uncomfortable feeling and enjoy your food more, without the guilt.

This concept isn't just about food—it's a mindset that can be applied to many areas of our lives.

It's about pausing, checking in, and making intentional choices rather than just going on autopilot.

How often do you find yourself eating mindlessly?

What's one small change you could make to be more present in your day-to-day choices?

My client J.W.M came to me as she was invited to speak at a large event, which she very reluctantly accepted. And very quickly she realised that she needed help.

I have seen a video of her at the event (not the speech itself) and it was wonderful seeing her enjoying the day. She clearly felt comfortable and at ease.

"I was amazed at how much I achieved in just two sessions. It was like ‘flicking a switch’ and changing my mindset from being negative and self-critical to being calm and confident, which is how I felt on the day."

Thank you so much for working with me!

I’m walking in the pouring rain and don’t really mind. Is there something wrong with me? 🤔

It's strange, isn't it? If I'm already out, a bit of rain is no big deal. But leaving the house when it's already pouring? That's a whole different story!

It reminds me of momentum and inertia. Once we're in motion, keeping going feels easier, even through challenges. But overcoming that initial resistance, that 'stuck' feeling before we start, takes so much more energy.

Think about it:
1️⃣ Starting that new project you've been putting off.
2️⃣ Making a career move that feels daunting.
3️⃣ Prioritising your well-being when your schedule is packed.

That initial push can feel like wading through treacle. But what if you could decrease the energy needed to make those crucial changes in your life and career?

If you're feeling stuck or facing a big transition, imagine how much smoother your path could be with a clear plan and consistent support.

I rushed out the door to get to an appointment and left slightly later than I wanted to.
I was 10 minutes into my walk to where I needed to go, just started to calm down and noticed that I’d forgotten something.

No headphones!

25 minutes walk each way without podcast or music.
“Shall I turn around or keep going? It’s too late to go back and grab them.”
It was too late; I had to rawdog it, as they say these days (aka do it without comfort or distraction).

I got calmer.
I started to enjoy it.
At some point, I didn’t even miss my headphones anymore.

And now, at times, I leave them at home on purpose.
It made me realise that I can be relaxed and calm, walking with no distractions.

You might think, ‘No s**t, Sherlock’.
I agree, not the biggest realisation ever.
But why did I have it?

Because I was open to it.
I let go of my initial frustration on that first walk.
I decided to turn something a little annoying into an opportunity for a new experience.

All those are things my clients learn in my coaching program.

If you would like to learn how to let go of uncomfortable emotions and enjoy life a little more, drop me a message. Let’s have a chat.

It was a delight to coach Gwen. What I love most about her testimonial: "She ... often managed to surprise me by pointing me towards ideas that were already within me".

That's what coaching is about! Showing you that you have all the resources you need. Which means you don't need to be "coached for forever". But you come out of it with a new set of tools you can apply to improve your life further. So much more empowering than paying a coach for years and years because you think you need them.

Life lessons from a Harry Potter origami: Keep the end result in mind; the rest will follow. 💡

I recently did a Harry Potter origami, which is my way of getting myself to the edge of my comfort zone and have a bit of fun. I know, doing this kind of activity usually gets my inner perfectionist out, at some point I feel bored, then annoyed and want to throw everything into the bin.

So I managed the chocolate frog and the sorting hat. Then I got to Harry, who had a 3 out of 3 difficulty rating. I got to step 7, which included 3 pictures for the same step and I had no clue what they wanted me to do. I kept faffing around for a while and realised that the pictures in step 7 wouldn’t get me anywhere. 😫

New approach: look at step 8 and I might find a way to get there. Nothing.

Okay, last resort before throwing everything into the bin: Look at Harry, the whole thing. Go big picture. Where do I need to get to in the end. Ah, I can’t fold his face in half as it needs to be complete. And that’s where his scarf needs to go. Within 2 minutes, I figured it out.

Sometimes when we are in our 💩 it’s very hard to step back and see the bigger picture. And sometimes it’s all it takes. That’s where a coach who can ask questions to get you to see your problem from a different angle is invaluable.

Where are you stuck? Where have you tried everything and keep going in circles, where it might get a little better, just to crash down on you again? Send me a DM if you want to break out of that and finally move on. ↗️

I'm proud of myself 🌟 I've done something hard today. It didn't go as planned. I walked out of it and felt like a failure 😞 And I realised that I only had one narrow measure of success when there was so much more. So on the way home I stopped and rewarded myself. Because I did well. Not the kind of well I wanted. And I still did well ❤️

10 things that ruin any speech or presentation… 🗣️

1. Have your notes printed on an A4 piece of paper
2. Answering questions in a defensive way
3. Ignoring the time limit
4. Speaking in a monotone, flat voice
5. Read off a script
6. Overprepare
7. Underprepare
8. Don’t connect with the audience
9. Be nervous and fidgety
10. Rushing through the content

And numbers 4 to 10 are all indicators of anxiety around public speaking.

If you want to overcome your fear of public speaking, let’s have a chat (and don’t worry, it will be just the two of us).

⚠️ Warning: Only read if you can deal with philosophical posts! ⚠️

This is a portion of a (pretty crappy) picture I took on the way to the A pigeon just taking off. When I looked at it today, it hit me that:

1️⃣ At that time, so many women were on the way to their first conference and just about to take off on their journey
2️⃣ I'm just about to take off with my coaching business
3️⃣ I'm also about to take off with going full-time on my self-employment

After two days of listening, processing, letting go and some good amount of dancing I walked away with a new vision for my coaching, a limiting belief that now falls into the filing cabinet "Used to be true but no longer true" and a new belief that is pretty scary. But I also realised that I'm pretty good at "feel the fear and do it anyway". I'll share more on that in a video later this week.

And all of that made me realise: THE BEST IS YET TO COME 💣Bring it on!
