At this time of year, we make plans. We think about that person we want to be, that year we want to have and we make it into a resolution. 

Maybe we write it down, maybe we keep it secret, or maybe we share it with our loved ones. 

But how often do we follow through?

This week I’m talking about how you can make them really stick this year. I’ve got four simple steps so if you want to see a change in 2020, give this episode a listen and start making your dreams a reality.

We all know that people come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and I’m talking about our personalities here: our strengths and our weaknesses. After a few decades on this earth we tend to to accept who we are. 

But I’m here to tell you that this doesn't have to be the case.

Who we are, or who we were doesn't have to be who we become. 

If you think that you are messy, disorganised, scatty or have poor time management, it doesn't have to stay this way. Honestly. 

But before we get into how to change all of that, let’s look at your starting point. I’ve created this little quiz to help you determine which of five time management styles you fall into and I talk through them in more detail in this episode.

Feel free to take the quiz either before or after listening, it really doesn't matter, but make sure you do both because this is where you take step one of becoming the person you really want to be…

Take the quiz at www.sophieatton.com/quiz and let’s start this journey together!

Have you thought about what your 2020 goals are yet? Do you want a quick and fun way to help you pinpoint EXACTLY what you most want from the coming year?

Inspired by this TED Talk, I invite you to imagine it is Christmas 2020 and you are writing an old-school Christmas letter, looking back at your successes in 2020. What would it look like?

Listen to this short episode to get the details on two quick tasks that will help you not only reflect on your successes in 2019 but also get ready to make 2020 your best year ever.

Christmas is round the corner! It’s a time of joy and love and giving… but it can also be stressful. There is just so much to think about and to do, and it can feel a little overwhelming.  

So this year I’m running through a few tips and tricks for you to stay on top of things. I get deep into it. I cover:

Food - when and how to buy everything to make it as easy as possible. What not to bother making yourself plus a few quick things to make from scratch that you may have never realised are super quick and easy. I also go through the best way to approach cooking on the day itself.

Presents - who not to buy for, and some out-of-the-box ideas if you’re totally stuck or on a budget. 

Decorations - the simple step to make buying and hanging decorations easier and quicker every year.

The build up - little festive tweaks you can make to get you and everyone around you in the spirit and making the most of the weeks running up to the big day.

The day itself - you do this your own way, but there’s one important rule everyone needs to remember.

Hands up if your inbox is out of control. If it’s over flowing with unread emails and they are coming in faster than you can get them out.

This episode is for you. 

Last week I ran a challenge and one day included a short version of what I like to call ‘the inbox diet’. And because I want to share this with all of you, I’ve taken this one day and turned it into a podcast. 

In this episode you will hear about:

• How to prevent so many emails coming in and the questions to ask yourself to help you with that

• A quick and easy to remember system for sorting through new emails quickly and KEEPING your inbox tidy

• A simple way to stop your inbox controlling your day

And as an extra step I’ve made a little document for you to help remember the inbox sorting system (listen to the podcast first so you know how to use it).

Do you find the idea of travelling with a baby totally overwhelming? Do you have no idea where to even begin with getting yourself organised?

I’m just back from two weeks away with my little one who just turned one and, together, we made it through two 11 hour flights and two 8 hour time changes! I also did a similar trip when my baby was 5 months old, so I’ve got experience with travelling with the little ones too. Also… you may not know this but I worked in the travel industry for 11 years and my husband still does. So all in all I’ve got some good experience to share with you. 

In this episode I talk about:

Packing - what you’ll need and what you won’t! What you’ll need in your hand baggage and even how to best pack when there’s a baby involved - do not make the mistake we did on our most recent trip! 

Flying - how flying with a baby works from a pricing and seats point of view, as well as what you will need on board, how to cope with sleeping and popping ears and what your fellow passengers are really thinking. 

On holiday - the surprising items that are hard to find, how to get hold of your baby’s milk and our own experience of a one year old with jet lag. 

Plus lots more!

In this week’s short episode I talk you through the things that went wrong in the first year of my business.

The bad lessons I had to unfortunately learn the hard way. I talk about how I bounced back from them and pass on some lessons you can hopefully learn from if you’re ever getting ready to start your own business.

This week I jump in and talk about change - something that affects all of us.

If you think back over the last year or two to both your home life and work life, I doubt you can tell me you’ve not had to adjust as you go through some kind of change. 

There is a whole science behind how to deal with change and it's definitely not as boring as you think.

So listen on for how to cope with change, adjust quickly and the youtube video that you all must watch…

Watch the video for Who Moved My Cheese here. 

I’d love to hear what this means to you and if you found the youtube video meant something to you or if you found it too… cheesy… so please get in touch!
