So I am now thinking I have so many Enneagram stories I might need to turn this into chaptered posts. 😱😜 Without a doubt, one of the many benefits of using this tool is the clarity and insight that it has given me in understanding other people, especially many of the children that I work with. …
Day 14: Be Brave Challenge – The Enneagram Part 1
I have always been an incredibly up/down type of person. When I was in my late 20’s I seriously thought I might be bi-polar….in hindsight I had little understanding of how debilitating real manic depression was….but for me at the time it still felt overwhelming. (Ummm…of course, it didn’t help that I was fuelling myself …
Day 13: Be Brave Challenge -Random Rant
So this morning I woke up at the ridiculous hour of 1 am again. Seriously what’s up with that? (I’m not a bloody insomniac.) Lay there for 20 minutes before I finally thought “stuff this” will just work on today’s post. Which I did quite happily till 3 am….when my brand new (week old) phone …
Day 12: Be Brave Challenge – Mother’s Day
I have been lucky enough to travel quite a bit in my lifetime which means I have spent a fair bit of time sitting in airports watching people. The duality of energy in airports always fascinates me. On the one hand, you have people eagerly awaiting the arrival of loved ones. Smiling happy, joyful, excited …
Day 11: Be Brave Challenge – Self Discipline
It’s been a weird two weeks doing this challenge. On the one hand, it’s been absolutely exhilarating actually just writing every day. I feel really proud of myself….still can’t believe I have actually kept it up for a WHOLE 11 days. 😁 On the other hand, it has completely knocked my sleeping pattern out of whack. I …
Day 10: Be Brave Challenge – Zumi
I love working with kids. They really are so sweet and funny. I especially love how honest they always are. Too often I feel children are discouraged from being honest for the sake of politeness. I try and encourage the kids that I work with to always tell me the truth…no matter how sucky it …
Day 9: Be Brave Challenge – Don’t Sweat the Small Stuff
Years ago when I was studying to become a life coach one of good friends in London, Harvey, gave me a book called…”Don’t sweat the small stuff”. I will not be doing a book review on that book because quite honestly I was way too busy sweating the small stuff to even read it. (I …
Day 8: Be Brave Challenge – High Value Man
Ok so just woke up from zombie apocalypse dream 💀👹😱😰…(Google dream interpreter says: “To dream that you are attacked by zombies can represent your fears of being helpless and overpowered.” Mmmm…..that sounds suspiciously like my love life ( I am going, to be honest…I wrote the post below on Monday morning…but then didn’t really have the guts to …
Day 7: Be Brave Challenge – My Wonderful Friend Constance!
I have to admit I struggled to get out of bed this morning. I lay there mulling over my Kuk Monday (why do things always happen in threes?) and feeling a little daunted by the fact that it’s only day 7 of my challenge..what the hell am I going to write about for another 37 …
Day 6: Be Brave Challenge – How Cute is my Nephew?
Today feels like one of those days that just knocks all the positivity right out of you🙄…so don’t really have much to say tonight. Good thing I’m a little like an energade bunny.…I bounce back fairly quickly after a some sleep.😉 Although the definite plus of my day was seeing my brother and his gorgeous little …
