Oh Lance Armstrong, how gutted am I; you were the ultimate in marketing/hope story dreams. The cancer recovery, the seven wins of the Tour De France (my husband is a fan, and I like the bums), the amazing record. We’ve been listening for years about the fact that it was all a lie, but […]
Can a book help you if you are stressed or overwhelmed or depressed? Yes, it totally can. BUT it’s always sensible to mix being self-reliant with a bit of involvement from other people; so reading a great book doesn’t mean that sometimes we might need someone else’s help as well; wether that’s a chat with […]
One Thing I Am TOTALLY sure of is that .. Everyone wants to be loved just as they are. We don’t want to be loved, despite our less attractive bits. We want to to be totally and unconditionally loved. This is true of us all, from the poorest to the richest, from the kindest to […]
This is a message for the grumpy old man and the younger male driver who yesterday took umbrage at me pulling over to the side of the road with my hazard lights on and making it a little difficult for them to get out of their road because they had to pull out more than […]
I’ve made a massive shift recently and am now listening to myself a lot more. I’ve decided that talking to myself might be a sign of madness, however as it works when I recommend things to my clients, it would probably work for me too! So big in the Mummy Whisperer manifesto is for Mums […]
Wow, this week was a crazy week! Children’s nappies leaked twice and whole beds and duvets needed washing, babies puked, I bumped my car (ouch!), and I daftly scheduled Little Dimples vaccinations. In the meantime technology was not loving me, things kept going wrong and my computer was on a go slow. I was only […]
I learnt something about myself the a few days ago. I learnt why I have such a strong feeling about evolution of a person needing to follow a natural rhythm, rather than be forced or pushed. Have you wondered where your beliefs come from sometimes? There has always been one place where I differed from […]
Have you ever wondered what happened to the girl you used to be, or who you will become, or who on earth you have ended up becoming? I suddenly started wondering about this at the weekend as I watched one of my favourite films ‘Practical Magic’ with Sandra Bullock. I felt a tinge of sadness, […]
I realised something last week, which is that sometimes we actually have to bite the bullet and ask for help. This might seem obvious for some people, but it’s been quite a new concept for me; so, I’ve spent the last 10 days very sick and finding all sorts of different ways of asking for […]
Willow Phoebe Rose Pearson arrived on Saturday 13th February at 13.25, at a chubby 9lbs 3oz, at home in our lounge after a very relaxed 7hr labour, lots of chatting and a short dip in the birthing pool. Hubby and 4yr old son were downstairs during the process, watching films or playing computer games, and […]
