  • Turning 40 – A Milestone, Dinner and a Show

    I have reached my 40th Birthday.  After many years of joking  that I had been undergoing 40’s counselling, the big day came….. and went!  Surprise, surprise, it was just like any other day and I don’t feel any different today!
    Of course, the ‘big party’ is this weekend, so maybe I’ll feel a little different next [...]

    Compassion

    I’ve been a little quiet over the last few weeks and I thought it time for an update. Stuart and I took the children to World Internet Summit from March 12 to March 15 – a very busy time and tiring.  We all arrived back home very enthused about what we can be doing to [...]

    Why Encourage Your Child To Be Entrepreneurial?

    Over the past couple of days I have been asked by many people why I ‘allowed’ my child to pursue her own entrepreneurial endeavour, particularly in a field like Psychic Development.

    Welcome!

    Well, I can hear many people saying ‘About Time’ as they read this blog. I have been ‘online’ for over 12 months now and this is the first time I have set up my personal blog.
