Do you have a “Word” for 2020?

Leave a Comment

I heard about this concept around 2015, when I was working with a dear mentor in the US, Paul Zelizer. Up to then I was very familiar with choosing goals for the upcoming year — yet just “one word” was new to me. I didn’t get into it for another year or so and the first word I chose to really get ...

Visibility Will Lead to Loneliness

Leave a Comment

If you’re a sensitive introvert with a small business, you might know the conundrum… “I want a successful business. BUT. It means I’ll probably need to be more visible (and my coach is telling me that). AND. I don’t want to!“ Does that sound familiar? I am intimately acquainted with this inner ... [ Read More ]

Visibility – What’s your Reaction to this word?

Leave a Comment

If you're an introvert, that word might want to make you turn around right now and run for the closest hills. I get it. For years, I was a "closet business owner". Yes, I had a business.

Lessons from Pushing Past my Energy Reserves

Leave a Comment

Have you pushed yourself to run on an empty tank? What was the impact? I did that recently and learnt some valuable lessons. I don’t have it all figured out fully.

Super hero

As a coach for introverts and sensitive people, I'm guessing that if you are one, the "super-hero super-fast" picture to the left might not appeal to you. Introverts are more inclined to go for slow, steady, careful action and not have to show up as super heroes. (If your palms are sweating - ... [ Read More ]

Performance Anxiety

Leave a Comment

Last week I went to an organ recital in Christ Church, Spitalfields. It was the largest organ in the UK for about 100 years. The hour-long performance was a very special experience for me - I was a musician for many years before I made a radical change to computer programming, and then 12 years ... [ Read More ]

Introvert Tips to Thrive during Busy Times

Leave a Comment

Recently I made the longest and furthest trip ever without my husband, and the first back to South Africa since we moved to London, from South Africa. It was an incredibly packed 2 weeks with business to finish off (banks, mobile contracts, dentists, hairdresser), seeing friends and colleagues, and ... [ Read More ]

Tall Poppy Syndrome and the Fear of Judgment

Leave a Comment

Tall Poppy

This past week I wrote about Tall Poppy Syndrome on my Facebook Page, and it had some surprising reactions. I thought to share my thoughts here too, in case it meant something to you. Are you familiar with "Tall Poppy Syndrome"? It's something like - someone in your community stands out and ... [ Read More ]

Who Else Finds Change Hard?

Change is hard

How comfortable are you with big changes? Divorce? Separation? Moving house? Moving to a different city? Or a different country? Leaving friends and family behind….
