Dear overwhelm, I know I get stressed sometimes when you're here. But I've been doing some inner work and now I totally understand why you keep showing up, I've realized it's time for me to listen because you have come to teach me valuable lessons about myself and this life. I am ready. Here's what I've learned from you lately I need to walk before I can run. It' ok to take baby steps to build up momentum on a new task, relationship or challenge. Stop taking such big bites out of life. I am not going to miss out. I can take smaller bites and what is truly for me will still be waiting for me to embrace on the other side. You've come to teach me the art of delegation and that if something needs to get done that badly it will. I don't have to take on…
The world can be a pretty bleak place if we wander around consumed by the daily grind. Perhaps we don't even realize that we have any control over our direction or circumstances. It's easy to lose ourselves in the mists of monotony. If you could choose to live in darkness or light which would you choose? You do have the choice. Have you ever considered who or what drains your power and keeps you from your true work? What even is your true work? I mean seriously we wake up every day and do what we're 'supposed' to do, as prescribed by the societal idea of Normality. We struggle and strive to meet other peoples expectations, we bend over backward to please everyone but ourselves. We tiptoe around people and their emotions so as not to touch or trigger their thorns. We get consumed by the bad news and negativity,…

So I often find myself feeling stuck and not knowing what I want or how to accomplish it when I do. Today was no different. I had a task to complete (write this post) and I put it off until the last minute. At this last minute, I started to feel justified in putting it off until tomorrow because I was sooo tired and I had run out of time and I didn't know what to write about and blah blah blah... as usual. But I have a new tool in my box these days and it's called self-reflection and it works wonders when I'm subconsciously trying to play small. So I stopped myself when I realised I was just making excuses. I mean, running out of time?? What a cop out. My time is not up yet and hopefully won't be for a long time. Time is also precious…
Dearest soul searcher, you're so full of potential, chances are you’ll make a few mistakes along the way so I wanted to tell you a few things that might guide you on your journey. Life can be tough so I thought I’d send you the letter I wish I’d had when I was your age. I hope you find some useful tips in what I'm about to tell you.

Get familiar with saying no when you need to. Don’t allow others to overstep your boundaries. Stop doubting yourself, you are truly worthy…
I've been known to sit and procrastinate for days. Then I realise that the reasons for my doing so are based in fear and overwhelm. So many things to do & worry about, So many rules to follow. There just don't seem to be enough hours in the day to do everything. But then I realise my overwhelm is keeping me stuck. I hardly get anything done and I definitely don't get it done well when I'm worrying about all the other stuff. So I set out to create this system to overcome overwhelm. Now next time that I feel overwhelm creeping in I can get on top of it quickly. I hope it helps you too. Take a Time Out I can gain alot of clarity just by doing a quick mindfulness excercise or taking a short walk. I highly recommend taking that little time to reset and refocus…
Self care is more than just bubble baths and candles. I'm here to talk about the deeper elements of self care, the inner work, which if we get into the habit of doing regularly, can have longer lasting results. If there's one thing we have got to get down if we want to live a passionate, purposeful life, it's self love. We are so used to putting everyone elses needs before our own that we forget or rarely have time to look after ourselves. Looking out for others is great, but we can't pour from an empty cup. It's not selfish, it's imperative that we find, carve out or create the time and space to look after number one. So hang tight while I go through a few tips to get you started on the road to loving yourself fully and completely, so you can go out and make your…
One single mission is the purposeful parenting blog, for parents committed to exploring Personal Power and Self-Mastery for the sake of the kids. My mission is inspire the next generation to be their own superheroes. I believe previous generations left the school system with little or no confidence or self-esteem. It was rudely snatched away in random bursts of judgement, manipulation, forced conformity and public humiliation!! But guess what, I’m here to claim it back!!! Did you know we didn’t even need to go there? Yea, it’s education that is compulsory, not school… but anyway, I digress. Are you playing small? I believe that empowerment is the answer, hopefully by mastering ourselves and reclaiming our power, we can inspire a generation of superheroes who aspire to greatness and naturally reach towards their awesome. We have learnt to play small in this world but there is so much more I just…
