As this new year starts, I want to pause with you for a moment.

Before the resolutions.
Before the plans.
Before the rush to “do” anything at all.

We are standing at a rare threshold —
the turning of a page.

In my years as a doctor, and now as a writer and publisher, I’ve learned something simple but profound:

Very little changes in our lives until the words we live in change. "The words we speak become the house we live in."
Sometimes those words can exist as a form of prison!! We can get trapped in some of the stories we tell ourselves, or beliefs that we have about ourselves that are not even true.

When we are surviving, our words are often complaints — about the past, about what didn’t happen, about what shouldn’t have been. Those words help us cope, but they also keep us stuck.

When we begin to wonder what's possible, our words shift:
From complaint to gratitude.
From coping to choosing.
From reacting to creating.
From demanding to contributing.

A new year doesn’t demand that you fix yourself.
It simply offers you a blank page.

A Get Up and Go Diary or Planner is designed to meet you there — not just to organise your days, but to inspire better conversations with yourself… one page, one thought, one choice at a time.

As you step into the year ahead, I invite you to choose words that:

ignite wonder and curiosity

encourage courage

nourish wellbeing

invite clarity and calm

and help you create the future you want to live into

✨ If you haven’t already, now is the perfect time to choose your companion for the year ahead.

👉 Explore the range of Get Up and Go Diaries & Planners
👉 Start the year feeling inspired, supported, and ready to begin again

Thank you for being part of this community.
Here’s to new words, new possibilities, and a brighter year ahead.

With warm wishes,
Eileen

✨ New Year’s Eve Reflection ✨
As 2025 comes to a close, we’re all standing before a blank page.
A new year.
A fresh start.
New words waiting to be written.
What you write matters.
Because the words you speak become the house you live in - they shape your actions … and your actions shape your results… and your results shape your experience of being alive.
A Get Up and Go Diary or Planner isn’t just about dates and dates and to-do lists.
It’s a daily invitation to pause, reflect, choose your words wisely —
and step into 2026 with courage, clarity and intention.
If you’re ready to turn the page and begin again,
start with a diary or planner that inspires you every single day.
💫 Make 2026 the year you don’t just get organised — but truly get up and go.
👉 Available now on our website.
Here’s to new words, new choices, and a brighter year ahead. 🥂✨

Twixmas Thoughts ..

25/12/2025

A comforting thought ..

If you're feeling a bit sad this Christmas, I need to tell you something... 👇🏾

Several years ago I was working in a call centre in Manchester on Christmas Day for a company called LateRooms - booking strangers into hotels while they travelled to see their families.

My shift ended at 10pm. I walked home to my room in Moss Side, Manchester, knowing that I was back in the call centre early tomorrow, and I spent the night feeling really sorry for myself about the reality of my life...

I made the mistake of opening Instagram.

Everyone's perfect Christmas. The matching pyjamas. The table with fifteen people round it. The feast. The boyfriend surprising his girlfriend with the Pandora bracelet. Kids losing their minds over presents.

I stirred powdered oats into lukewarm water for Christmas dinner (see the actual picture below). My brother Jason Bartlett had given me a bag of it months earlier "for emergencies."

The loneliness was palpable.

A decade later, that night in Moss Side feels like a completely different life now.

Not because it made me stronger or any of that motivational stuff, but because it made me understand something I've never forgotten in my hardest times:

Life happens in seasons.

Within a year my life was different, within 2 years completely different again, within a few more years I was living in a different country, in love with a wonderful woman, surrounded by 10+ family members on Christmas Day, nieces and nephews and living a life that I feel deeply grateful to live.

Life can change so quickly!!!! Even within a year things can look unrecognisably different.

One day - and it could be next Christmas, could be in five years - you'll be somewhere completely different, surrounded by people you haven't even met yet, living a life you can't imagine right now, and you'll think about the Christmas you spent feeling lonely, unhappy or unfortunate and you'll be weirdly grateful for it... because it taught you you about seasons, and that winter comes before summer.

Merry Christmas 🎄❤️

Sending my love to you and your loved ones and thank you for a beautiful year!
