Ah the serenity.
Given that I am away camping at the moment, actually I am sitting in my tent, listening to the sounds of the rain as it falls against the taut canvas. This morning shone bright, birdsong filled the air, and the early morning sun’s rays filled the solar panels. I cooked brekkie on the campfire –…

Why stop at just one personality trait?
What personality trait in people raises a red flag with you? A lack of compassion and empathy are massive red flags billowing in life’s winds. As are ignorance, arrogance, hatred.

How do I relax?
How do you relax? I relax by holistically feeding my body, mind and soul. I relax by soothing my nervous system. I relax by being in nature, and removing myself from unnecessary noise and intense energy, people and situations. I relax to music, movement and calm.

When there’s the promise of light & energy.
What’s your favourite time of day? I love the promise of early morning, when dawn quietly unfurls her rays of light, and birds fill the air with songs. Likewise I adore evening, as the moon etches across the sky – leaving a trail of dreams behind her. Yet, there is another magical moment when as…

My family
What motivates you? I have multiple sources of motivation, however the greatest is my role as mother and parent. More importantly, it’s the fact that I am a special needs parent- that is I have a daughter who has a disability and additional life-long support needs. My daughter woke me from a deep sleep of…
