A little bit of both
Are you more of a night or morning person? I absolutely love the quiet stillness found late at night, when the household is fast asleep. I derive incredible joy, inspiration and energy from the quiet early morning, as outside I am greeted with a cacophony of birdsong and of day’s awakening. Perhaps I prefer early…

Each to their own
What are your feelings about eating meat? I haven’t eaten meat in over 20 years, and I know that I will never eat it again. All be it for some incredible reasoning , ie the state of the world depended on me eating meat, other than that it’s a definite No! However, I respect the…

Ah what to wear, what to wear where!
What are your two favourite things to wear? In all seriousness my two favourite things to wear comfortable, proper fitting shoes and comfortably fitted, natural fabrics. However, I wish I could wear a cloak of invisibility, as well as find a beautifully sexy bra that feels like you’re actually braless. I would also love to…

In hindsight…
What’s the hardest decision you’ve ever had to make? Why? In hindsight my life has been punctuated with tough decisions, yet they have all been interspersed with relatively easy choices.

It undermines self agency, experience and knowledge. In a world of big blue sky thinking and endless possibilities, micro management is like blinkered short-sightedness that robs us…

Almost all animals
What are your favorite animals? I know that this will be a very unpopular post, but I have a strong aversion to all domesticated cats. Like a really strong aversion, to the point of not being able to be in the same space as them. Whereas, I love tigers, lions, cheetahs, Pumas, lynx’s, jaguars, mountain…

Tough question
If you could meet a historical figure, who would it be and why? I would say in this moment I would like to possibly meet Pliny The Elder, who was an Ancient Roman naturalist, prolific writer, lawyer, naval commander and philosopher, amongst other things. He wrote the monumental ‘Natural Histories’ which is pretty much the…

January
What’s your favorite month of the year? Why? January would be my favourite month as I’m generally on leave from work. It’s hot, it’s summer and I’m generally happily swimming with my kids. January is a quiet month and a time to reflect, refocus and reset, planning both professionally and personally. And if we are…
