Communications Coach
Feeling Overwhelmed? Here’s How Journalling Can Clear the Chaos Have you ever rolled your eyes at the idea of journalling? Yeah, me too. For a big chunk of my life I thought it was just one of those “airy-fairy” activities meant for people with way too much free time. Outpouring my feelings onto a page? […]
Ever felt like you’re just missing ‘something’? Job for life? Never my style. I worked at the BBC for 8 years, before moving on, and it was the same when I moved into Corporate Communications, another 8 years later. It wasn’t that I didn’t enjoy those roles, I did. And I performed them well – […]
Do things feel a little ‘off’? How are you? Be honest. Are you happy in your role and business? Is everything flowing perfectly towards your BIG vision? Or could you do making a few tweaks (or even a complete Trinny and Susannah style makeover?) Maybe you feel stuck, like you’re under a big black cloud […]
It was the same feeling I had the day after I finished panto. Once I’d hung up Hans’ tunic and hot pants for the last time, after months of rehearsing and performances, it took time to adjust back to ‘real life.’ And the same when I binge watched Ted Lasso in just a few days. […]

Storytelling. We’ve all heard about the power of telling stories in your business. But it can all be a bit of a mystery how the paloozas to use them to actually help you sell stuff. And where the heck are these stories anyway? Are they all hiding under a rock somewhere dancing to Harry Styles […]
Are you thinking about starting a vision board? I started creating old-school vision boards (with primary school style cutting and sticking) last year – and I LOVED it. The process was so therapeutic. And what surprised me about the whole thing was how much clarity the whole exercise gave me, not only around my goals […]
“Your priorities will change”, they said. “Your career won’t matter any more.” On the first count they were right. But on the second they were oh, so wrong.
“I don’t have a story.” That’s what I hear from people when I meet them at events. Even the most inspiring people you can possibly imagine just don’t find themselves interesting or worthy. Fact. You see, we never see our own stories – just like we very often don’t value ourselves as much as we […]
