I am More than My ADHD
Last weekend I had a timely reminder that there’s so much more to me than my ADHD and that thriving is possible. This is not about super powers but rather connecting to the deeper part of us that has more in common with other humans than not. Read on to learn more about the Hoffman Process. […]
How has Coaching Transformed your Life?
In this month’s blog I am talking about what coaching is and what it isn’t, and how and when it can be helpful. Coaching is sometimes in the news for all the wrong reasons. As it is an unregulated industry, not every coach is properly trained or cares about your wellbeing. This is why it’s […]
What are your Non-Negotiables?
January often arrives with a loud bang. New year, new you. Fresh starts, big goals, ambitious resolutions. And yet for many women I work with, especially those who are postnatal, perimenopausal, neurodivergent, or simply exhausted, January can feel like the worst possible time to overhaul your life. As a Scandinavian who pays close attention to […]
Hello Spring: A Fresh Start for Goal-Setting
Hello Spring! Well, not quite yet, but the longer days and occasional rays of sunshine definitely hint at better things to come. Many people use the new year as a time to set resolutions, but I prefer a different approach. Instead of January 1st, I use the spring equinox (March 20) as my opportunity to […]
What does Health mean to you?
Health is such a broad topic and as a health and mindset coach, I often ask my clients: what does health mean to you? And here are some of my clients’ answers.

Are you Prepared for the Changes that the Perimenopause might Bring?
If someone told you that oestrogen has over 400 functions in the body and when it starts to drop, you’re going to potentially notice a lot of changes – would you stop what you’re doing and take notice? Do you know how well you might cope with these potential changes – both at work, socially […]
Bye Bye 2023, Hello 2024
Last January, as I was running a challenging half-marathon race in cold, strong winds and rain in Richmond park, I saw a sign that said ‘Breathe & Believe’ (thanks Run Through UK) and this became my mantra for the year. It helped me achieve my goals on more than one occasion and got me through […]
Less Strength, more Softness needed
This summer I’ve learnt a very valuable lesson: I want more softness in my life, not more hard, tough and strong. Every mum I meet is strong, capable, competent. She can do – and is already doing – hard things. *She’s gone through pregnancy, perhaps a really tough one full of sickness, or possibly several […]
London Marathon 2023: I’ve Learnt that I can do Hard Things and you Can too
The biggest lesson I’ve learnt on my marathon journey is that I CAN DO HARD THINGS! This has given my confidence such a huge boost which has carried over into both my professional and personal life. I’ve learnt that I can have a laser-sharp focus, work consistently towards a clear goal and don’t give up […]
Worrying about your Skills and Confidence after Mat Leave?
Back when I was working for big corporates, I was often sent on presentation courses to help improve my public speaking skills. They didn’t help much as the focus was nearly always on what I was doing wrong. They kept saying: practice makes perfect. But I never felt that I improved, despite practising lots. A […]
