Surprisingly not too many.
What personal belongings do you hold most dear? I believe I’ve finally acquired a healthy sense of detachment to materialism and material things. Having said that, I am grateful for my camera, iPhone, iMac Air, as these are necessary to create and connect with others. They have purpose. I’m attached to photos (but having said…

My inner bowerbird …
Do you have any collections? Do shoes and boots count? Plants? No, seriously though I have been drawn to certain items in the past, where I’ve felt the need to amass new items, much like the bowerbird. My favourite objects to collect were brightly coloured Murano glass, in the shape of wildly wonderful organic vases…

My personal legacy
What is the legacy you want to leave behind? I’d be absolutely thrilled if I could leave a legacy of deep self-reflection (introspection) compassion, empathy, kindness and integrity. I’d love to know that I helped others learn to fully love and embrace themselves, while at the same time having compassion and understanding for others. I’d…

Give me heat any day … however-
How do you feel about cold weather? I much prefer heat, being Australian I’m usually spoiled for good weather. Add to this I literally love to swim every day.

Life’s not so black & white. There’s a whole shifting scale of kaleidoscopic colour.
Are you a leader or a follower? There’s times when it’s essential to be a leader, carving out my own path as I go. However, there are times when it’s necessary to sit back and simply go with the flow, following the lead of another or others. Life is complex, highly nuanced, and requires the…

Not fair, I can’t stop at just five.
List your top 5 favourite fruits. I love all fruit, apart from pawpaw, which I detest. I think it may be the same for Dorian (but I’ve never tried it). I’m not particularly fond of papaya, either. I love mangoes, watermelon, firm seedless grapes, peaches, nectarines, plums, all citrus varieties, cherries, pears, bananas, apples, kiwis,…

One small tweak – a huge improvement.
What’s one small improvement you can make in your life? Sleep – get to bed earlier than I currently do, so I can easily awaken at 5am every morning, instead of 6am. Then, I can enjoy a quiet home before everyone awakens. I could meditate, quietly exercise and/or write, all before my family wakes and…
