Perspective

  Have you ever been immersed in something so deeply; a project, task, personal or professional goal, or just in your daily life, that you just feel stuck and forget to notice the wider picture?

It is a feeling that I think most people can relate to in their personal and professional life.   I had a climbing project once; a towering boulder, an

What is a Life Coach and How Will it Benefit You?

Hire a life coach and harness your inner leader today... Maybe you have a huge life dream, career or personal goal, need to channel your confident leader or simply want more of something or less of something you are fed up with. Perhaps you are seeking to reconnect with your inner spark. Did you ever notice that once you have shared your dream, goal, desire for change or whatever it is, that it becomes - gulp
