Kids movies are certainly more than meets the eye (often)… I’m grateful today for a few thoughts from Finding Nemo, which Ethan watched this afternoon as I worked on my new (almost complete) book. I absolutely love Dory’s philosophy when it comes to uncertainty or challenge – “just keep swimming, just keep swimming…” (and it’s…
I’m so grateful for the opportunity to share the day, the weekend, and the business journey with some very inspiring people. It’s been said that we are same person 5 years from now except for the books you read and the people you spend time with. This is an exciting thought, as I read great…
Another day of moving forward with the book and meeting fabulous people! Charyn and I spent the morning on our books and then went into the city (Adelaide) to meet a friend for a late lunch. The most special moment in our lunch together was when Michael spoke about his 2 and a half year…

Jumping out of the comfort zone! I’m grateful for a day with family today – as it was Dad’s birthday yesterday we came out to the farm for lunch. I took a few photos of everyone out on the lawn, with this blog in mind, but as the day progressed I found even more to…
So grateful today for some very exciting mail… especially for the sender! Julie Woods, That Blind Woman, from New Zealand, launched her book recently, and popped a couple in the mail to me. How exciting! The book covers Julie’s first 10 years of blindness, and explores her learning along the way. Julie has featured in…
I’ve been sitting here contemplating the day – I have much to be grateful for – but what did I take a photo of today in my book-busy day? I’m in a silent house and suddenly startled by the “brrrring” of the Live Chat on our site. A new friend Lindsay popped in to…
