Pope’s Sydney Visit

World Youth Day has Sydney buzzing. The atmosphere literally puts a smile on your face. Our first encounter was in Central Station at 9pm on Friday night, where young people walked through the hallways (with less luggage than Lyndon & I!) chanting and singing. I could hear them before I could see them, although the…

iphone launch

iphone mania captured me too, I must confess.  I was down at the Network Communications store before 9am to pick up the first of only three allocated to the store… it amazes me that there was such a shortage – maybe someone didn’t realise that there were people like me who suddenly appreciate the best…

International Happiness Day

International Happiness Day is today, World Gratitude Day is coming soon… we celebrate Mothers Day, Father’s Day, Easter, Christmas, Thanksgiving, the list goes on… it’s great that we have these reminders to focus on various themes and appreciate certain people, but we can choose our focus everyday.   What does International Happiness Day mean for you?…

I’ve just completed an amazing coaching series with a long distance client who has successfully rewired her brain – her definition of the process, and an accurate one. She’s completely changed her focus in…

Mothers Day

Mothers Day is a special one – there’s no way you’d be here except that you had a mum! I hope you had a fantastic weekend – I spent Saturday at a beautiful location on the outskirts of Orange at Mary Brell’s Women, Wine and Wisdom. I wrapped up the day with “Wisdom in Everyday…

A beautiful weekend and a lotta love

Sandra Groom was my one of my first Mentor Coaches and has become a dear friend. Her first visit here was the day after we started moving in, and the whole house was full of boxes. It’s not everyone you feel comfortable with when you’re surrounded with stuff to the point of having to eat…
