Here’s the big news – I’ve FINALLY launched the podcast I’ve been dreaming about doing for the last 2 and a half years! If you follow me on Instagram you’ll already know since I’ve been bombarding my stories and grid with photos of microphones and me looking uncomfortable in oversized headphones, but you may be wondering what all the fuss is about and why I’m such a podcast advocate. Truth is, I really believe they can save your sanity…

“It is from the empty spaces that the future begins in moments of creative insight, where our world is re-patterned in an instant: where we are no longer able to think what we thought before and where we see a new way of leaping forward. You are now here.”
This landed in my inbox this week from NoWhere Group. Isn’t it beautiful?

I have to tell you something. I’m in love with professional trouble-makers. Not the hooligan kind that disturbs and disrupts maliciously, solely for their own entertainment. No, I’m talking about the good guys, the rebels leading with kick-ass kindness who are changing the game for the rest of us…
Continue reading “WHY I LOVE PROFESSIONAL TROUBLE-MAKERS…”DO YOU MAKE (ENOUGH) MISCHIEF?!

I sure don’t.
(Yet).
But for some reason I can’t explain, over the last few years of soul-searching, of looking for a purpose and trying to make sense of who I am, I keep coming back to this one word: MISCHIEF.
Continue reading “DO YOU MAKE (ENOUGH) MISCHIEF?!”LIFE IS A BLANK CANVAS…

…AND YOU GET TO CHOOSE THE COLOURS.
The shading is up to you, the marks you leave are your legacy so what are you going to do with it? We don’t need to be artists to create a work of art. We don’t need to label ourselves creative in order to pick up the paintbrush. We just need to wake up and realise that every day when the sun comes up, we get another blank canvas to play with and another shot at making life epic.

JUGGLING MUM LIFE AND PERSONAL LIFE…
I knew it had been a while since I last blogged but I was shocked when I realised it was 5 months ago. I had been doing so well at balancing regular blog posts with looking after my son and studying for my social media course but then somehow I fell off the wagon (not for the first time). I’m not sure what happened. I got sucked into social media, via Digital Mums, I kind of ran out of ideas for things to write about here and raising a hyperactive toddler became distinctly more tricky than looking after the sleepy, immobile baby I had grown to know!

FINDING THE RIGHT NICHE…
Are you (like me) wondering which business direction to go in? Confused as to whether to broaden or narrow your business ideas? In this great article from Talented Ladies Club, Hannah Martin sets the record straight;
“One of the biggest mistakes young businesses make is trying to be everything to everyone. When taking a generalist approach, you pit yourself against industry giants who, with huge budgets and a very well-established name, are extremely difficult to compete with.”
So how can we survive in the business world? Continue reading “FINDING THE RIGHT NICHE…”

One of the ways in which I’m trying to gain clarity and stay motivated on my long, entrepreneurial journey is to listen to podcasts.
