YES I LOVE TO PLAY WITH WORDS... that would come as no surprise to those who know me... ⁠
⁠
I love the art of words; within my author work for children and adults; my speaking engagements; my screenwriting; my Speech Pathology background... and my intuitive life/business coaching and consulting, where "Wordology" is something i passionately teach from an energetic perpsective.⁠
⁠
My Monday message today is encompassed by my new word... "PHILOSO-BE"⁠
⁠
This word is a simple yet powerful reminder that...⁠
⁠
...the success of what you teach is communicated by the extent to which you have embodied your own teachings. ⁠
⁠
Enjoy some mindful moments with this...⁠
⁠
May we flourish together,⁠

Monday Mindful Moments....⁠
⁠
Today i put forward the question as to whether you make mistakes; or whether they make you?⁠
⁠
As someone who identifies as a 'previous perfectionist'; there is great liberation in realising and emodying the greater/ higher gifts that come from anything you may have deemed a 'mistake'. ⁠
⁠
Let us flourish together...⁠
