✨Book Journey Update !✨

"More LOVE at Work" manuscript is back from the editor

I have received my editor’s first draft review feedback – thanks so much Rachel Warmath 🙏📚💖

Rachel, thanks so much for your insightful comments and advice. Your feedback has been instrumental as I go about refining my work, and I am incredibly grateful for your support and guidance. Rachel is not only a book editor, but she’s also an accomplished author, yoga teacher and sage. Your expertise truly makes such a difference - Thank you 🙏📚💖

Submitting my manuscript was such a cathartic experience after the intensive book writing experience. However, this is also a time of tremendous vulnerability and angst.
What will the editor think? Is it crap?
Will there be lots of rewrites?
Is it even worth publishing?
I am sure that many authors feel this way, but it doesn’t make it any less daunting!

Stay tuned for more updates, and thank you all for your support! 🙏📚💖

✨Exciting Announcement !✨

I’ve been keeping this under wraps for a while now, but it’s time to share the news with all of you. A few people have asked about my second book, so here it is:

✨ The title of my new book is "More LOVE at Work"! ✨

I’m still working on the subtitle, but I couldn’t wait any longer to tell you about it.
This book introduces a leadership style that I call The Holistic Leader. It’s a modern approach designed to bring greater connection, resilience, and fulfilment into the workplace.

In "More LOVE at Work," I present the L.O.V.E Model of Listening, Openness, Values, Empathy. This framework is all about developing and integrating personal and interpersonal qualities in leaders, aiming to create a more compassionate and effective leadership style.

The new model combines the most effective aspects of past leadership theories and propels us into a new era of leadership with more heart, more service, and more love in the workplace – The Holistic Leader. This model is inspired by observing dynamic, successful leaders who embody these traits and from my own experiences as a leader.

I can’t wait to share more details with you as I progress along the publishing journey.
Stay tuned for updates, and thank you all for your support! 🙏📚💖

I had a chat with a good friend last week about the meditations I recently uploaded on my YouTube channel, and she inspired me to create one focused on empowerment and connecting to our centre.

🌟 I’m excited to share with you a new meditation: “Connect to Your Power.” Click on the link below to join me on this journey to inner peace and strength:

👉 Watch the 15-Minute Connect to Your Inner Power Meditation https://youtu.be/ZOKUtxMnKDI

Empowerment is about more than just personal strength; it’s about living a life that reflects our true values, aspirations, and potential. By embracing our inner power, we can navigate life’s challenges with confidence and create a meaningful and rewarding life – we can bring more of us into the world through:

*Self-Confidence: Trust in your abilities and make decisions that align with your true self.

*Resilience: Bounce back from difficulties with mental and emotional strength.

*Purpose and Direction: Gain clarity on your values and goals.

*Healthy Boundaries: Recognise and respect your own boundaries and those of others.

*Autonomy and Independence: Take control of your life and shape your future.

*Positive Relationships: Enhance your relationships with mutual respect and understanding.

*Personal Growth: Continuously seek new experiences and self-improvement.

*Happiness and Fulfilment: Feel content and joyful by aligning with your true self.

In this meditation, we will journey inward to connect with our heart and centre, embracing the fullness of who we are. By setting the intention to deeply understand who we are, what we bring to this world, and what we can let go, we will cultivate a profound sense of self-awareness and empowerment. Join us as we honour our true selves and learn to show up every day with confidence and authenticity. Let's awaken our inner strength and step into our power together. 🧘‍♂️ ✨

✨Bounce Back Fast – Audiobook RECORDED !📖 🎧 ✨

I am so excited to let you know that I have recorded the audiobook for BOUNCE BACK FAST – 5 Practical Steps to Resilience!

Recording this audiobook has been a significant milestone for me. The biggest challenge was getting started – carving out the time and space to fully immerse myself in the process. Narrating my own work required me to embody every message within the book.

Revisiting the content word by word reinforced my commitment to the insights and advice I share.
I had to resist the urge to ad lib and embellish as I was going along – there's so much more I'd love to share!

The journey from my desk to Audible is a long one - Now, it is off to the Sound Engineer to do his magic 📖 🎧✨

The Power of Focus: Lessons from my book writing journey

Having now written two books, I've learned that being 'in the flow' can lead to amazing accomplishments. During our Book Writing Intensive, I was in the zone, writing over 5000 words a day for about 12 hours each day. The words just flowed, it felt like a breeze! ✍️📖

Instead of feeling tired, I was energised and excited to show up for our coach check-ins and continue writing. I isolated myself from my family, got into my writing groove, and everything just clicked.

Once the intensive week was over, I needed to review my manuscript and send it off to the editor. Easier said than done! Stepping out of the zone made everything take longer. I had to reintegrate with family, catch up on emails, and handle my usual commitments. Plus, we celebrated my darling Lachlan’s birthday, which was a top priority. What should have taken a few hours stretched into a week.

The reason I’m sharing the story of my manuscript review is to highlight the stark difference between working 'in the zone' versus dealing with everyday distractions. We can achieve so much more when we're present and focused – something we all know intellectually but often forget in our fast-paced, media-filled lives.

My first draft is in – let the publishing journey begin! 📚✨ 📖

Writing my second book in one week has been both challenging and exhilarating. ✨

Everyone’s journey through this week has been different. I have done 12-hour day writing sessions and wonderful check-ins with my tribe, every moment has been filled with determination, passion, and a sprinkle of magic. 🌟

I have felt the focus and drive to bring my unique message to the world. The process has been a whirlwind of creativity and connecting to my heart and soul.

I love creating a beautiful space to bring out the best in me and my writing, so I got a bouquet of flowers to brighten up my desk. I specifically chose the proteas as a reminder of my South African roots and Australian natives including the eucalyptus leaves to celebrate this beautiful land, I now call home. 🍂

I have to admit that my week was powered by lots of 95% Lindt chocolate – I don’t drink coffee and chocolate is much healthier – as far as I’m concerned!🍫

Stay tuned and join me in celebrating this amazing journey. 📖✨

✨I did it !! ✨

I have written my SECOND Book in One Week! ✍️📖

This time, I explored what it takes to be a modern leader in today's fast-paced world.
This new book will provide fresh insights and strategies tailored for the challenges and opportunities leaders face today.

✨Stay tuned for more details, and get ready to take your leadership skills to the next level! ✨

My background photo for this post is the beach I went to on Monday at the start of this book writing journey to get grounded and ready to write. And what a journey it has been!

This has been an intensive writing week and it could not have been possible without Dave Thompson, Davina Davidson, Keri Lynn and our beautiful editor Rachel Warmath - thank so much to you all and the amazing group of fellow authors ❤️

I was so excited to share my book BOUNCE BACK FAST with Rotary International President Gordon McInally. We are deeply aligned in our shared passion for raising awareness and prioritising mental wellbeing.

Yesterday, I had the privilege of attending a luncheon with our RI President, where we were inspired to CREATE HOPE IN THE WORLD.

I was deeply appreciative of his heartfelt gratitude for our individual contributions.
He reminded us that the efforts of one person delivered through a massive organisation like Rotary actually changes lives - of one person at a time!
We also had a very informative talk from Prof Pat McGorry on Youth Mental Health status in Australia.

With greater resilience, we create a ripple effect of hope, encouraging those around us to persevere and strive for a brighter future.

Rotary International
Rotary Club of Balwyn Inc.

I’m so excited!!!
I’m Writing ANOTHER Book in One Week! ✨✍️

After the amazing journey of my last book BOUNCE BACK FAST, I'm pumped to take on this wild adventure once more. I just know that it is going to be an exhilarating, and creative rollercoaster ride, and I can't wait to share it with you all!

I'm diving deep into the process, fully immersing myself in the world of words. I'll be going offline and focusing all my energy on crafting something special.

Can't wait to share the journey and the finished product with you all once the week is complete.
Stay tuned for the reveal and thank you for your continued support and encouragement! 💖 📖✨

Navigate change with 3 STEPS

Change can be scary – generally not easy – but do-able!
I have put together 3 steps that can help you navigate the whole change process with greater ease – and BOUNCE BACK to get on with life!

In this short YouTube video, I describe the challenges that we face when we are going through a period of change – this can be in our personal lives or in the workplace.

Change is probably the one constant in life – apart from breathing!

Step 1 – Know your SELF with The Awareness Triad
When you tap into that inner power, that sense of personal control – that is when you can truly navigate the change in your life – with self-determination!

Step 2 – Mindset Matters Most
Beware of the stories you are telling yourself and cultivate a mindset of flexibility and adaptability.
Instead of viewing change as a threat, see it as an opportunity to stretch beyond your comfort zone, to explore new possibilities, and to challenge yourself in ways you never imagined.

Step 3 – Acceptance
Are you accepting the situation or are you avoiding change?
There are no mistakes – only opportunities for growth.

However you choose to navigate through your period of change, it has to be right for you, it has to bring you peace.

I know that it can be scary to write down our thoughts and feelings, relive our anger and pain, and possibly past failures and regrets.
BUT, old buried baggage is the stuff that emotional triggers are made of!

So, STEP ONE is always look within and get to know who you are, how your life experiences have shaped you - TAKE OWNERSHIP OF WHO YOU ARE.

The Awareness Triad is the quickest way to get to know your SELF.
