This time last week I was sat in a field waiting for the kettle to whistle, listening to the birds sing and feeling the sun and soft breeze on my face.

Away camping for the first time in about 15 years ...i thought it would make a change.

It did.

I chilled, I relaxed, I got back to basics. I got rather cold at night, i swam in the sea, enjoyed the stars, I watched the babies get covered in grass stains, I experienced a rollercoaster of emotions ( the joys of grown up children with their children).

I took time for me.

I didn't open my laptop, I ignored my phone (ish).

Nothing broke, nobody died, the world didn't end. Upon returning the office looked the same, the inbox slightly fuller but the world didn't stop.

But I did, just me pausing for a little while. Giving myself permission to be, do what I fancied and to think....just gutted my first visit to the beach, after 10mins it rained on me...i think thats sods law! I just laughed.

I would like to say I'm fully refreshed, I think that's a lie, but I am keen to rest more, to enjoy the birdsong and maybe boil a kettle in the garden just to hear the whistle.

Hope your last couple of weeks have been kind...mine have :)

Sometimes things don't seem so bad when you take a moment to critically explore where you are...get down to the specifics and the numbers.

We seem (I) to run on assumptions and guesses and many of my clients do to.

When I pull them up on the specifics quite often the catastrophic thoughts are untrue and not correct, things shared also don't seem to be quite as huge!

As a coach sometimes I need a coach, a reminder of where I am and how far I've come.

This isn't weakness is this basic human need.

And it delivers so much....when was the last time you explored the specifics in your world personal or business?

Yesterday was my HMBiz 4 Women networking meeting with guest speaker Claire Wozencroft and she didn't disappoint.

I have known Claire for a long time and she chose to ditch the PowerPoint and tell her story, carefully weaving in top tips for marketing, personal growth and business in general...just brilliant.

Leading into a great discussion and the chance for people to off load and share how things are tough, scary, positive and all things In-between...a special safe place where no one feels judged just supported and included.

I love that creating this space is the gift that keeps giving. That the benefit is clear and hopefully fun is mixed in also.

Thank you ladies for helping to create brilliant sessions and to my speakers who dare to share and be themselves it delivers more than you could ever know..thank you, I am blessed!

When does the day of the week really matter to you?

Is it a Friday because it is the end of the working week and you have two glorious days off?

Is it a Sunday because you are dreading the daily grind of the Monday?

Is it Monday because the kids go back to school?

Is it Wednesday because half the week is done?

This week my diary and days were upturned by a personal incident. I had to let my client down and dash to the hospital with my daughter having a suspected heart attack. I spent nearly 24 hours in a&e and came home exhausted...I couldn't work because I had to sleep!!

So today is Saturday and still tired I am playing catch up - the beauty of being self employed is the decision to make whatever day I choose a work day.

Now thankfully my daughter is ok, more tests and stuff to follow but my priority was her and being there as i decided that's how I want my days to roll.

Life is too short to do anything else.

What days matter to you?

I spotted this kiss on the floor as I was leaving the Shell Store for a meeting today .... some might say it is a cross.....or some might say its a bit of wood. It is all down to the meaning we put onto something.

I opted for a kiss.

Our interpretations of the world around us, affect our communication, how we emotionally respond and how we react, often misunderstanding is down to personal misinterpretation.

A message hasn't truly landed until we check the interpretation of the receiver....how often do you consider that your communication is going to be interpretated by someone else's model of the world, not yours and do they actually get what you are trying to say?

The team called me a weirdo for the kiss photo, I shall interpret that i am special for all the right reasons :)

I have just cleared two weeks possibly three in my diary!! I am officially booking holiday time. Yeah yeah, so what??

I don't really do that... but I know I need to. I keep trucking, then I become a right moody mare, I have no creative spark, I feel disinterested and generally a bit meh!

So today I have officially put it in the calendar, in my diary and in my brain.

I have booked some camping and might just see where the wind takes me for other days....any suggestions?

It is a team coaching kinda day...looking at communication with individuals and exploring barriers and growth in an impressive Herefordshire business.

This personalised and tailored support, that I deliver makes me a happy bunny.

We are working together to improve team cohesion, communication and connections.

Asking the tractor traffic gods to be kind on my journey there and more importantly home as it is going to be a full on day...

Love my work 💓

What are you doing today?

Love my job!
