12 Days of Blogmas Day 6 : Setting Boundaries – I Can Do Anything Not Everything

Welcome to day 6 of Blogmas! A wise friend once said to me: Zero plans days are the best. I try to have more of these days than not. At least two days in the week and one weekend day I try to leave with nothing organised. I have always tried to book out “free”Continue

Autumn GYST Days 🍂

After my first 7 weeks of being fully self-employed, lord knows I need a couple of get-your-shit-together {aka GYST} days! And what better way to document my plan {and progress} then to brush off the old blogging skills. Just to set the scene, I technically went fully self-employed with Pro Clerking at the start ofContinue

Setting Intentions for 2022 {in Business Health & Home}

It feels as though I’ve been working towards 2022 for MONTHS by way of designing and launching the BH&H 2022 Life Planner. And here it is! And let’s face it. No matter what your thoughts are about setting goals and starting new endeavours on the 1st January there is NOTHING {in my humble opinion} moreContinue

The Atomic Habits {mini} Series Section 1 | Finding Your Identity

Last week I started a read-along with This Splendid Shambles {and co.} of Atomic Habits by James Clear. Basically, a group of us would read a section of the book a week to then discuss and dissect. Now, this is a book I have previously delved through but has been on my list to re-startContinue

Setting Boundaries | {I Can Do Anything Not Everything}

A wise friend once said to me: Zero plans days are the best. I try to have more of these days than not. At least two days in the week and one weekend day I try to leave with nothing organised. I have always tried to book out “free” or “zero plans” time into ourContinue

Project Simplify | 30 Day {Health} Challenge

Ok, so following on from my 30 Days of Personal Development {which is still underway!} I’ve decided to launch the first of 2 {if not more!} additional 30 day challenges. And although my all or nothing tendencies are screaming to do everything at once I’m really trying to be sensible {!} and take one thingContinue

80:20 Rule {Intuition vs. Consistency}

“Which Chipmunk are you?” This was the question posed by Sarah Knight from the No F*cks Given podcast as I ironed a million pieces of school uniform. Turns out, similarly to Sarah, I appear to be a Simon teamed with a sprinkle of Theodore. Which is why {put simply} I like to be super organisedContinue

10 lessons I’ve learnt from {home learning} | Lockdown 3.0

{Thursday 21st January 2021} I think it’s pretty fair to say that week 3 of lockdown 3.0 has pushed me to the edge. It was always going to happen. My inner perfectionist kidding me into thinking we can do it all and come out feeling rosey on the other side. Yet here we are. FreshContinue

Habits over {motivation} | 8 habits before 8am

I am a BIG fan of routines and when thing get on top of me laying out a plan of action is definitely a big part of my go-to self-care toolkit. But creating {or sticking to} new routines is HARD. We so often think we need to be more motivated or have more willpower thenContinue

New year {same me}

Happy New Year! 2021 – the year that HAS to be better than 2020 right?! Yet here we are. Still feeling confused and unsure of what the future holds. Back in lockdown and home learning/working/childcare-ing. Another new normal. Who took down their Christmas decorations before the New Year? I’m usually desperate to clear the ChristmasContinue
