Book, Bouncing Back and Plan B
At the start of this year, I began my book-writing journey, and what a journey it has been. Writing about something so deeply personal, while sharing practical tips and strategies for facing crisis and growing through adversity, has been both challenging and cathartic. I’ve discovered that the initial writing process comes quite naturally when you’re speaking from the heart, but once your words land in the hands of others, that’s when the real work begins.

Leadership Lessons for the new season
We all lead without realising or recognising it. You lead in your family, in your friendships, in your community, as well as in your work. The myth that leadership only counts when it’s official, loud or public is just that, a myth. I like to remind people that they already carry influence in their life. The real question is, how you will use it?

Face Your Front
“Facing your front” means focusing on your own path. Not looking left or right or watching what others are doing and measuring yourself against them. It means putting your energy into what you’re building, not what others appear to have already built. It’s about trusting that what is meant for you will not pass you by and, recognising that your journey is not supposed to look like anyone else’s.

Everyday Joy
I believe joy is a gift that we can all access. It’s something deep-rooted and unshaken by circumstances unlike happiness which relies on things going our way and let’s be honest, life doesn’t always play ball. Joy on the other hand, is grounded in contentment, a quiet confidence that even when life is messy, there’s something steady and whole inside of you.

Resilience isn’t fixed—it’s something we grow with time, practice, and a bit of self-compassion. When it feels like everything is coming at you at once, see it as an opportunity to strengthen that resilience muscle.
