 I recently posted on my social media (in haiku form, as you do!) that I had some time free at the moment and was pondering how to spend it well. The overwhelming response, was just be. Don't try to do. I've been embracing that and really enjoying the time and space I have at the moment to be mindful and enjoy my time. 

That being said, I've achieved a huge amount. This week, I've seen 3 specialists to get support for my health and mental wellbeing, which has taken a large battering over the last four years. Finally I feel we have a plan and I'm starting the road to recovery. It's a long road but I can see the end in sight. Now I'm reflecting on just how amazing it would be for my career if I can get and stay well! 

So I'm making lots of plans for when that happens, not least to start teaching marketing and comms, or coaching others. If you have any suggestions as to how I should go about this and gain experience, do let me know.

I can do this!

But not the hot flushes and night sweats - they are horrid, but I am focusing on mood disorders that are exacerbated or triggered by the perimenopausal hormone changes.  I'm talking brain fog, memory issues so much so you think you have dementia, anxiety leading to phobias, and the depression which is all-consuming. I want to share that I have all this every 3-4 weeks at the moment and have done now for nearly 5 years. Surely this will end soon? They say 10 years is possible. I've recently started following Louise Newson from Balance; she's a doctor with really great advice and support around menopause and all the problems it brings for women. As well as Davina Mcall, she and Dr Greenhouse are sending out a very clear message which resonates ...
