Sleep and Rest: Make space in your day to be a happier you

It’s always there isn’t it? The list. You know what I’m talking about don’t you, busy mum? The ‘To Do list’ you keep in your head each day – the one that means you can’t slow down and waits to pop into your weary mind just as your head hits the pillow. The one that robs you of precious sleep and rest and takes up so much of your time there’s none left just for…

Hey you busy mum, slow down and make time to self love. MinimalistSelf LoveSlow Down

Hey you busy mum, slow down and make time to self love.

Reduce your feelings of rush and trying to fit it all in. Initiate your self love process instead!  Does that sentence give you goosebumps? Maybe it sounds like an impossible? Perhaps your mind simply wanders there in gentle curiosity, as a nudge to you to start thinking about concentrating more on yourself? A possible?  Being a mother, we know it can be easy to slip into a space where you hardly get time for you…

Listen Up! Your House Is Asking For A Homely Renovation.

Do you adore your home and like me, little by little, love to pretty it up? Having a home which is gently and lovingly upgraded, reflecting you and your inner world is an absolute blessing I believe. This is all possible even if you are the owner of the house you dwell in or in some cases, even if you are not. Significant changes in your home can be either small or large; cost the…

The must do money thing. Self Love

The must do money thing.

When it all feels like it's crashing in ... The morning I shockingly discovered (omit any discussion) I was financially frozen out of all my money and all that I had been tirelessly working for, was right before heading to school for drop off. Fear intensely took over. Glacier still I stood, I was terrified to every inch. My life raced before me. F$%* my mind screeched and mapped! How would I put petrol in…

Behind the scenes – living large with less. Slow Down

Behind the scenes – living large with less.

Living large with less? What does it mean for you? Lets have a look.   I overheard someone say the other day … “I am doing this challenge with a friend at the moment; neither of us are buying a single new item of clothing in 2019. I have way too many clothes and too much stuff anyway, I don’t need anything else. I just need to simplify” she drifted off. This could mean living large…

A 6 figure salary. Overnight to nothing.

The #1 secret of living large with less. Terror took over. My (financial) future looked frightening. In an instant I thought “if my personal losses weren’t enough already, why now this professionally too?” and “how on earth will me and my kiddies afford to eat?” Never afraid to put my nose down and bum up, I have always been a working mama, juggling the juggles. A once encouraging and thriving career in I.T. travelling the globe…

3 Simple Steps. Jog On Through Adversity.

“Jog On. No One's Comin” A few years ago a friend of mine used this term to describe how he kept moving forward through major adversity he was experiencing in his life. Together we belly laughed over the phrase and its meaning. He didn’t mean it like it sounds, that he had no one to support him on that journey. Personal and professional support is key to getting through the tough stuff. He meant, it's…

What Would You Tell Your Younger Self? Minimalist

What Would You Tell Your Younger Self?

For 26 years, I have been a hairdresser. I have held other amazing roles during my career, including traveling internationally in a global educating I.T. one. I have experienced career thrills and highs and the feeling of “oh yeah, I am FINALLY going somewhere!” I have also experienced absolute and complete professional loss too, as in no job, no money, no seemingly visual way forward. I know what it’s like to be starting from scratch…
