Putting our wellbeing first is one of the most empowered and empowering choices that you can make. And yet many of us are stuck in the story that we “can’t” do it. Not only are we allowing ourselves to be victim to our circumstances, but we’re also held stuck in the loop of back-filling our wellbeing because society profits so much from us doing this (coffee chains, I’m looking at you). What if - instead - we start with wellbeing?

Once you’ve identified what your needs really are, how can you go about having others support you in meeting them. In this post we explore the value in asking for support, and list some ideas for ways in which you can be supported by other people.

When we get triggered, angry, anxious, sad… our tendency is to look outwardly and try to fix the thing that we see to be causing this. Instead we might choose to take a moment to consider what this tells us about our unmet needs, and to look at getting supported with those. 

With the demands of being a leader, how do you also balance making sure that you take care of yourself? And in particular, how do you create that balance when you’re in the midst of physical or mental illness? This post seeks to explore how to see those moments as a space for opportunity in strengthening your leadership while also getting your wellness needs met.

Coaching and therapy can be easily confused. Sometimes one can feel like the other. But each serves a different purpose. And when experienced simultaneously, they create a powerful partnership in transforming our lives. 

What happens when Summer ends? All around social media I see celebrations of a wonderful Summer, and woes that it’s now all over as we get back on the hamster wheel of day to day life. What if the joy of Summer - the togetherness and permission to play - weren’t a moment in time, but instead a constant state of being? How would your life look different?

How do you serve your well-being? Do you take a walk? Take a bath? Go dancing? Are all of your well-being practices actually about “doing” something? And could they be in service not of well-being, but instead of trying to fix things in your life? In this post we explore well-being and well-doing, and share ideas for practices that blend both in service of making once-and-for-all transformations in your life.

With so much value placed on constantly “doing” and achieving, how can we instead find value - and even productivity - from simply doing nothing and just “being”? In this post we consider a value to doing nothing that goes far far beyond simply resting and recovering. 

When someone asks “how are you?”, how do you answer? Do you answer with a judgement (“I’m good” thanks) or an insight (“I’m really happy today”)? In this post we explore how this often flippantly placed question can actually disempower our true being, or empower deeper relationships with others when we allow honest answers to be shared.
