You can stop waiting for the permission slip

February 1, 2016
Right now I’m dancing my way through Big Magic by Elizabeth Gilbert, so I’m not going to lie about my inspiration for the title of this post.

See Elizabeth Gilbert understands permission like no other. Over the years she’s progressively unschooled herself in what it means to live a creative life. On every page you can devour her lessons from the journey thus far, all while creating ‘whatever causes a revolution in your heart’. Among the anecdotal notes, she generously shares with the reader a whole chapter on permission.

Today, I wanted to share with you a recent discovery I had on this very subject.

Discoveries come at the strangest of times and not to mention in the strangest of places – in the shower, on the toilet, driving to work. Today, permission cracked me wide open in an interesting place.

Picture this common setting, the local pool, screams, laughter and the slapping of water as bodies hit the surface. I happened to have Big Magic open on this day and usually struggle to pull myself out of its vortex, but on this occasion a scene played out in front of me that stopped me in my tracks.

My favourite books and podcasts to inspire, expand and enlighten you

December 23, 2015

One of my core-desired feelings is Inspired and one way to guarantee I’m filled to the brim is learning.

This year, a stack of books often accompanied my gratitude and meditation journals next to my bed. While I’m not the fastest reader on the planet, a handful of carefully chosen books have become ‘references’ throughout my journey – and even more so as I transition into life coaching.

These holidays, if you are looking to indulge in a little downtime with a book or two, then I present in no particular order, my 2015 favourites:

Playing Big – by Tara Mohr

I began reading Tara’s book around the same time I declared that I wanted to transition to coaching women, about 6 months ago. I stumbled upon this gem as I was heading away on a holiday with my husband and it seemed like an appropriate time to shift my mindset and up the ante. In the book, Tara takes you through a series of insights discovered through her own life and work as the founder of the Playing Big leadership program. Each chapter asks you a series of journalling questions which allow you to gain insight into how you can move from playing small to playing big.

12 lessons learned from my first year in a new city

December 1, 2015

As the year draws to a close, keep a little gratitude in your back pocket for how far you’ve come on the journey:

Musings from me on change and embarking on life in a new city.

Always keep your winter essentials in the wardrobe – all year-long – especially if you move to Melbourne. You will soon know why Crowded House wrote Four seasons in one day about the extremes of this city. 
Don’t settle for bad coffee, ever. Or chai if that’s your poison.
You are never really alone. Your tribe, your kin, is everywhere.

Side note: I wrote about surrounding yourself with goddesses over here, this approach will change your life.

Attempt Bollywood dancing at least once in your life.

No joke. True story, that happened only a couple of weekends ago. No alcohol involved (more on that here), just a bunch of women shaking it like their mama.
