May 26, 2022 Be.Do.Have
Meet the creative/intuitive cycle. The greatest circle of life you've never heard of. I'm very excited about this. It's like when you see a piece of artwork that perfectly expresses how life is for you, but gives you new ways of looking at it too. Credit: Penney Peirce in the Intuitive Way.

May 09, 2022 When you get around to what matters
I CAN'T DO IT ALL. CAN I HAVE SOME FUN PLZ? Productivity is a joke, but that's not to say we can't organise our time better. Here's what my dream told me about taking a joy-first approach and asking the right questions.

April 26, 2022 You're not a factory. Newsflash.
Ever find yourself staring into space instead of being 'productive'? Not getting around to the things you enjoy? Maybe the old ways of brute force and planning just aren't for you. They certainly aren't for me any more.

April 05, 2022 What could have been "one of those days"
Things began so well. An early start. A swim. Good intentions. Then s**t happened. A live experiment in how a problem often isn't really the problem. It's the way we relate to it. Maybe.

March 31, 2022 A taste of my own medicine: micro pokes, intuition and joylessness
Here's what happens when we get stuck in our heads and repress our intuitive desire to be playful and do/make things we love. Micro-pokes is a product I'm building for you lot, to help with all the above. Yet it's stalled by the very same struggle.
