Many people start their leadership journey in a sentimental date; many people are promoted in the beginning of the new year. It doesn’t matter when, it matters that the timing is right. It’s important to have good timing as a leader and to be able to guide your team towards that. Recently, the football club…
Regardless of whether it is the first day of school or the first day of a new job, excitement and apprehension fills your sleep the night before. We lay out our clothes the night before, organise what we will do for breakfast or lunch, take a photo to remember this occasion, and accept well wishes…
We start back to school next Monday but we are now winding down all of our activities. School uniform is all purchased ready to be labelled and will be put into PE bags before the weekend, just to enjoy our last Saturday and Sunday as a whole family before the school run starts. When you…
We all have moments where we scroll our various media channels thinking we have read or engaged with everything; but we haven’t. Sometimes I check the weather app 3x before I have really taken it in. It is a lot of data at once but as it is aimless scrolling, we don’t always go in…

It’s Wednesday and the weather is wonderful today. We haven’t run out to the park whilst it is cool before midday; enjoying a play dough morning. We did find some missing small lego pieces in the green play dough… a time reminiscent of lockdown at home activities that meant our living room floor wasn’t visible…
It’s the first time (without Covid restrictions) that I am not working during the summer holidays. Trying to organise every day to match the curiosity of the children is challenging- I would never downplay being the person solely responsible for various activities that they are interested in but may not be your own personal strength…
How do you feel when the schedule you have put together doesn’t go to plan? Not a great feeling, but being agile is so valuable these days and having the mental resilience to take ownership of it is underestimated. Planning all the activities we want to do this summer with the children has of course…
