100 Days of Gratitude – Day 17

Birthdays are a great opportunity to especially express Gratitude – today I took my friend, client, colleague Ellen Bathgate out for her birthday. Check out this lunch!  (And imagine the big pot of berry/fruit tea we shared…) I’m thankful for Ellen, for her brilliant marketing skills that attracted me to her business, where I became…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 16

I am so grateful that Ethan’s had a wonderful 9th birthday!  We went out for dinner with his four adoring Grandparents, and today saw his Great-Grandparents, my Dad’s parents.  As we left their home, his other Great-Grandparents called from their home in Sydney to say Happy Birthday.  I love that he is building beautiful memories…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 15

A swimming pool (heated, at this time of year) is not only something I’m grateful for, but a wonderful quiet place to contemplate what I’m grateful for.  I love going for a swim and pushing beyond the aches that tell me to stop (they kick in way too soon to take them seriously) and swimming…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 14

A powerful conversation is something I’m often grateful for, however a little tricky to photograph.  I am so grateful for the privilege of coaching a brilliant man called Peter, who has made dramatic changes in his thinking over the past 5 weeks.  He knew nothing of coaching, until his boss introduced him to the idea. …

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 13

I’m so grateful for the people in my world who love sharing positive thoughts and experiences.  We support each other to grow and fulfil our potential. I opened my Facebook page and felt so encouraged by the interaction and lovely comments – I thought it worth sharing as my gratitude today! Connecting with people is…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 12

I am so loved!  I looked at these photos from last weeks photo shoot and there were so many great photos where I’m wrapped in love – 8 (nearly 9) year old love and over 15 years of married love… wow… I am so blessed. Are you more loved than you realised?  Quite likely!  How…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 11

My son is absolutely gorgeous and I am so, so grateful for him.  He suggested that my blog today was about him – and how could I resist?!  I am grateful for him everyday, and his wonderful Dad, who will feature soon… He is fun, compassionate, very mathematical and loves learning – as long as…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 10

It might sound silly to say that I’m grateful for my hot water bottle and its furry cover, but as I photographed it before taking it to bed last night, I thought more about it.  How many people in the world don’t have one, or even a blanket, or electricity to boil a little water?…

100 Days of Gratitude – Day 9

Grateful today for the curiosity and playfulness of a kitten.  Yes, a little random, but I’m looking for 100 different things to be grateful for – otherwise every post would be about people!  Now that I’ve mentioned and photographed this gorgeous kitten belonging to my cousin Karen, I can also add that we loved the…
