The past few weeks have tough. I cannot put my finger on one thing, there is just a lot of noise in the system at work and outside of work that is conspiring to narrow my bandwidth. Talking to people over the past few weeks it is not just me that is feeling this wayContinue reading “Leading a Value’s Based Life (an antidote to a shitty few weeks)”

Do you still strive for the Insta family lifestyle?
We all know it is unrealistic to expect our family life to be perfect, but we cannot help but compare our lives with our perception of the lives of those around us. Whether that is on social media, or just watching those glamorous parents and school drop off and pick up. It always seems thatContinue reading “Do you still strive for the Insta family lifestyle?”
Surrender to Our Emotions and Start to Really See Our World
About 2 weeks ago now I was listening to Brene Brown’s Dare to Lead Podcast (of course I was). She was talking to Sarah Lewis (a writer and academic) about her book “The Rise: Creativity, the Gift of Failure and the Search for Mastery. I have not read it, but with that title it isContinue reading “Surrender to Our Emotions and Start to Really See Our World”
18/07/20 Trying to get back to some normality
It has been nearly 4 months since my symptoms began. They are much improved, they do not have a huge impact on my life anymore, however they are just not present enough to irritate. I get breathless, have headaches, indigestion mind fogs, and moments of irritation and anxiety. I have decided to live with thisContinue reading “18/07/20 Trying to get back to some normality”

Today is day 9 of my quarantine, and I am feeling better, my cough was less aggressive overnight. I now feel battered and bruised, I feel breathless and my chest really hurts this morning.

01/04/2020 My faith in humanity is confirmed
What a truly lovely bunch of people we all are. Over the past week I have witnessed how kind and compassionate people are.

31/03/2020 Day 7 of the symptoms
It has been nearly a week since I started with symptoms. Yesterday I think was the worst day I have had. The coughing fits seemed more frequent and I was more fatigued than I have been.

28/03/20 Boris, Disney, and coughing
Well it turns out I have something in common with Boris. Get well soon Boris and Matt. This disease does feel like a juggernaut relentlessly rumbling around the world in an unstoppable wave of destruction. The only way to beat this is to stay inside as much as you can. Reducing contact reduces the abilityContinue reading “28/03/20 Boris, Disney, and coughing”
