do the scary thing

Take A Deep Breath & Do The Scary Thing!

This time last year, I was staring at my to-do list, procrastinating like a pro. I was terrified, you see. I’d received an email months previously from a well-known business woman (via her assistant), inviting me to interview for a position with her. At the time I had done what Read more…

Are you an introvert?

Are You an Introvert?

I am an introvert. I didn’t realise there was such a thing – or that I was one – until fairly recently. When I figured it out, suddenly everything fell into place.  I’m sharing this because I feel like learning these things about ourselves can help us in many different Read more…

afraid to lose weight

Am I Afraid to Lose Weight?

I was going to write another Weekly Weigh In post for this morning. Most Mondays this year, I’ve published a post where I’ve written about my diet and exercise for the week, my weight and measurements, and whether I’ve lost or gained weight. I seem to go through the same Read more…

Seeing Shyness From a Different Perspective

  I have spent most of my life battling against shyness. When I was at first school, I remember wetting myself because I was too scared to ask the teacher to be excused to visit the bathroom. When I was a teenager I would often cross the road or duck Read more…

My Number 1 Tip for a Happy & Confident Life

As you may know, I had a massive breakdown a few years ago. I’ve suffered with depression for most of my life, and although I tended to call myself a realist, others would probably have been more likely to say I was negative. I was so shy when I was Read more…

6 Ways to Build Your Confidence

As I wrote in a post last week, I used to be so shy I was scared to speak to anyone – even my friends. And yet, last week I gave a talk to a room of strangers, and I’m currently planning a workshop, more presentations and one-to-one training. What Read more…

Changes Afoot

For me every year, the minute Chistmas Day is over, I want to clean and tidy and sort. My house, my life, my desk, my work; I want everything to be tidy and organised by New Year. I also get a sudden craving for all things fresh and clean: celery, Read more…
