… Ages and Ages since I’ve done a blog post! I’ve been taking time to enjoy my family, yes, just us, and identify more with my role as a mother, a parent and a wife. I’ve been teaching myself to take it easy and not to try to plan all detail to the nth degree.Continue reading “It’s been a while”

Leading a Team and Facilitation
Facilitation is one of those words that can be judged as soft/ fluffy/ intangible and passive. In reality, it isn’t. It is a vital skill for leaders. Everyone talks about putting active words on your CV rather than passive or those relating to soft skills. This is an outdated perspective as the soft skills areContinue reading “Leading a Team and Facilitation”
The summer start
It’s been a very short amount of time but the long summer holidays looks short. We have been spending as much time outside as possible, in parks and in the garden.

I look at my children and with theContinue reading “In a Minute”

Getting into a Routine: Chore or Necessary?
It’s been a very short amount of time of me being off of work, but my children have quickly adapted to a new routine. We have been visiting one park almost every day (except for the STOP day!) to play tennis, head to the pond to feed the ducks, and then go for a walkContinue reading “Getting into a Routine: Chore or Necessary?”
