I love social media and at the moment (it changes regularly) my favourite medium is Instagram. I love being able to peek into other facilitators’ classrooms and share top tips and I find it easy to connect there. So there I was one day, scrolling through, when I saw an announcement from another facilitator [...]
Because I typically spend lots of time in the classroom, phone calls have never really been my thing. Actually that’s not strictly true, I love talking all things learning with clients via any medium. And I take every opportunity to take to my family. But all other calls are a nuisance. There I said [...]
A few weeks ago I met up with a friend who has left the corporate world and is shortly about to launch her business working as a freelance trainer, facilitator and coach! As she builds her client roster she’ll be looking for Associate work. She asked me for concrete advice in the “things I [...]
It's the last week of January! We've almost made it through the first month of 2019. Where does the time go? Every week of the month so far I've shared a story of someone who motivated me in 2018. Inspiring, but also with lessons we could apply to our own lives and the goals [...]

Each week in January I’ll be sharing the story of a person who inspired me to help start the year off right, to give some added motivation and tips as we all start building and working toward our 2019 goals. I started last week with an amazing story of overcoming the odds, which you [...]
One of the things I do to give back, is work as a coach helping graduate students uncover what they want to do post-graduation and, once they've figured that out, working with them towards securing a role in a company that would help them fulfil their ambitions. My very first graduate coaching client came [...]
It's 2019!!!! Happy New Year!!!! Looking at all my social media channels, I can already see many people setting goals and making resolutions for 2019. A great start - but just the start though. Turning goals and resolutions into reality requires a bit more. What more? Glad you asked! To answer, each week in January [...]
