    Episode 219- Your Children Are Watching Every Move You Make

    Today, we’re exploring a topic that’s both powerful and humbling: Your children are watching every move you make. As parents, we often focus on what we say, but the truth is, our actions speak volumes. From how we handle stress to how we treat others, our children are constantly learning from us, whether we realise it or not.   In this episode, we’ll uncover the subtle ways your behaviour shapes your child’s values, mindset, and future. We’ll also share practical tips to help you model positive actions, even in life’s most challenging moments. So, grab a cuppa, take a deep breath, and join me as we reflect on how to be the role models our children need. Because every moment is an opportunity to teach, inspire, and guide them toward a brighter future.   Thank you for joining me today.

    Episode 218- One Thing You Can't Get Back Is Time

    Today, we’re talking about something that every single one of us has, yet none of us can ever get back, time.    Time is our most precious resource. It’s the currency of our lives, shaping our relationships, our dreams, and our memories. But here’s the thing: how often do we stop to think about how we’re spending it? Are we investing it in the things that truly matter, or are we letting it slip away on distractions and obligations that don’t align with our values?    In this episode, we’ll explore why time is so valuable, the impact of misusing it, and how you can take control of your time to create a life filled with purpose and fulfillment. Plus, I’ll share actionable tips to help you prioritise what matters most and make every moment count.    So, grab a cup of cuppa, settle in, and let’s talk about how to make the most of the one thing you can’t get back, your time.   Thank you for joining me today.
