 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.

New me

 Well, what to talk about today? I just want to share that I feel truly blessed as I now have not one, but two fantastic jobs! So I've hung up my freelance hat for now, but don't worry I will be back! Maybe in a couple of years or so, I'll just see how things pan out. So I'm working in the public sector in two jobs about healthcare.  I'm still navigating my mental health at work and still have very bad days, but slowly I'm starting to rebuild my career and with it my confidence. I can do this!

Rollercoaster

I've been reflecting a lot about my career lately and all the twists and turns it's taken in the last few years, especially since having my daughter. I've experienced a toxic work environment, redundancy, a need to change jobs due to ill health and a huge reduction in hours for my husband due to his M.E., but despite the odds my freelance business has thrived, I've secured a great part-time job and we've managed to keep a roof over our heads.  Also my dad just came out of palliative care as he's doing so well. We are survivors us Mitchells (maiden name). Well, Jacksons too - my Mother-in-Law was just given an MBE for her charity she set up due to a really impossible situation when she was denied contact with her first grandchild. Life takes us through many ups and downs, particularly as someone with bipolar and menopause, but it's how you respond that counts.  Just thought I'd share my musings as I thought you might like to see my personal side.

Winter resolutions

  So I haven't succeeded with any of my autumn goals - life gets in the way and all too often I put everyone's needs above my own. So that has to change. From December I'm setting intentions to stick to: 1. Going to do a dance or exercise class each week 2. I'm going to make time for my marriage 3. I'm going to reduce my working hours
