by Are you up for an important challenge? When you next go to shop, see how you can personally reduce the amount of plastic you will take home. Just try it. Being conscious about plastic is the first step towards your contribution […]
by It can happen in an instant. You just know that someone doesn’t like you. What is your response? Move beyond your 100%, spot-on accurate intuitive assessment of this and begin trying sell how great you really are? Behaviours can range from […]
by ‘You are receiving this text message because you were in his contacts list on his phone and may not have been contacted by other means’. And so I heard of the passing of a work colleague from a work project I […]
by I’ve long hated the concept of ‘going to work’. The routine, the set hours and the horror of being told when it was acceptable to take a break, a holiday, didn’t ever sit well with me, even from an early age. […]
by I once knew a woman who had a 120-pill-a-day addiction to Ford Pills. Yes, the type that make you have a poo. She was also into supposedly ‘natural’ things that made you poo, like grassy looking blocks of muck that you […]
by I remember when my father bought our first colour television. We lived in a hotel and a big boxing match was going to be aired on one of the three channels that existed in those days. The promise of a huge […]
by Yesterday an interview on the radio reminded me that young people were usually risk adverse. Bloody lucky them hey? All free and easy and posting magnificent and exciting stories on Snapchat, all while looking like a bunny rabbit. It immediately struck […]
by I personally love my social media. Facebook for keeping in touch with friends. Instagram to capture beautiful moments in my life and promote my arts, crafts and sewing. Pinterest to gain inspiration around all things creative, culinary and couture. A bit […]
by Instagram has strangely become like a soft porn site for the next generation of women. Pouts, looks of surprise, demure faces staring downwards, stretching sexily like no one is looking, doing cutesy jumps on the beach and looking like they don’t […]
by Seems that lots of my friends have had a crazy start to the year. Conversations about how weird the times are, how frenetic the energy is between people. That things have been tense and long held structures are now shaky and […]
by When I was small, the most important lesson I got was from my great-grandmother. I spent my days with her as a pre-school kid, bring mumps, measles and chicken-pox into her house, sleeping on her couch for my afternoon nap and […]
by The end of the year signals a tradition where we decide on a few resolutions which seek to improve our life coming into the next year. We laugh at how long we will be able to keep up the change; stick […]
by I’ve never heard a really fantastic story about love found on a dating platform. But I have spent lots of time with my mouth agape listening to the horror stories of dating gone south with these types of apps at the […]
by It’s funny what can end up in your Facebook feed simply because you click onto one random thing that a friend of a friend liked and, voila, you find yourself with all this information about how to do something. In my […]
by If you ask any woman, and leave her to think about it long enough, none of us are that surprised that an incredibly wealthy and powerful man in Hollywood has used his position to sexually assault and intimidate women to fulfil […]
by I am three days returned from a two week holiday as I write this homage to the washing. No, I’m not some sort of freak. I don’t like ironing or putting it away into drawers but standing beneath a line, hanging […]
by They say that money makes the world go around. But that said, money doesn’t necessarily bring happiness. My mother always said it was made flat to stack and yes, if it was all that easy, and flippant, us girls would be permanently on […]
by There are many roads to a peaceful life like taking up meditation to keep yourself in the now. The calming practice of yoga or walks in nature help to ground us in the now and push the pressures of the world […]
by I switched off long ago to the mass media and its soul sucking messages about what you should and shouldn’t be saying/teaching/showing your daughter. There are too many things out there which simply work to undermine our female self-esteem and courage […]
by I’m a week back from holidays in Fiji. Eight days with a long-time girlfriend spent in beach clubs, floating pontoons, swimming in crystal clear water, sail boats, champagne, great food and heaps of laughter. I have been stopped in the street and supermarket […]
