I am learning a really hard lesson right now. The Art of No. It is much more complex than I thought it would be and I guess I am a little surprised at myself for it hitting me so hard. I thought saying yes and saying no was pretty simple. You are asked a question, you evaluate the value to… Read more →

Friday Reflection #FrF Life & Beyond
This week I turned 31, I am in Europe and all that feels overshadowed by the fact that my sweet cat Hobbes has been put to sleep. He was absolutely perfect. I wasn’t there for his last moments, which I am actually sort of grateful for. I want to remember him for all his good stuff , the way he… Read more →
Friday Reflections #FRF Kid & Wisdom
Spending time with a 5 year old and a 2 year old for a weekend and then for 4 days could be enough to write 100 posts. Their boundless energy and curiosity kept me fascinated but also so tired!

Friday reFlection #FrF Task & Maintenance
I was grateful to spend a week teaching and learning. It was an exceptional week working with along side people who I admire and had the opportunity of making mistakes with. Seeing that together, we are all going through the same things and that this work isn’t about perfection. It is an honour to be reminded of the mess and… Read more →
Friday ReFlections (but not on Friday) #FrF
Ok, so it was clearly bound to happen that I would fall off the wagon. I thought about it all day on Friday, what was I going to write about. What was I thinking? So much had happened and it was a good week and then of course life swooped in and said, “actually, I need your attention over here…”… Read more →
