Surviving but not thriving
Recently I applied to be part of a women-centred peer-coaching/ professional development programme at work. The application process involved completing a form and one of the questions asked was what you hoped to get from the course. While completing the form I had a revelation. I realised that so much of my time has been…

‘Emotionally Farting’ and other coping mechanisms for these God-awful times
I’m not going to sugar coat it. Everything is a bit shit now, and it may get shittier as the year progresses. We can’t change that I’m afraid, but we can explore ways to manage ourselves and our feelings during these challenging times, which is what this list is: an exploration of how to stay…

No, it’s not just you, everything is weird

Bring my ‘whole self’ to work? No thanks!
Not so long ago following the tragic and heart-wrenching killing of three children at a children’s dance studio in Stockport, race riots were initiated around the UK as a result of both misinformation and intimidation by knuckle-dragging racists with too much time on their hands. Depending on who and where you were, this was a…

Rebranding wellbeing and personal development
Wellbeing and personal development are hot topics and have been for a while. So much so that it’s not entirely surprising that you might be sick to death of hearing about them, not to mention put off by the cultish behaviour of some of the more ‘enthusiastic’ people involved.
