Comedy of errors is what I would name this week 😂 everything seemed to go pear shaped.

From costs blowing out on new product launches, to products ending up in the wrong location 🤦🏼‍♀️ and presenting at two full day meetings thrown into the mix, it’s been a week.

So I’m soaking up the beauty of my ‘hood. This is afternoon. Perspective is a wonderful thing.

I’m surrounded by spectacular beauty.

Look up.

Unexpected beauty everywhere. The clouds across the moon tonight reminded me of how nothing stays the same. ☁️ 🌖

Seasons change 🍁
People change 🤷🏼‍♀️
Goals change 🚀
Friendships change 👯‍♂️

Tonight was a reminder that I too am changing. I’m moving and changing and noticing the beauty along the way.

For the rest of your life, the only person with you 24/7 is YOU.

You don’t need anything else except you.

There is only one you and you are enough.

Make your very next decision, one that makes you happy and one that makes you proud.

I want you to succeed 🚀

The best part of my day job is the travel I get to enjoy and the people I meet.

This week - Auckland ✈️ Christchurch ✈️Auckland 🚙 Waikato 🚙 Auckland and finally 🏡

Task: photography shoot for front of pack NPD images, social pics, video and lifestyle shots and some BTS footage.

Although the days are long and tiring, it is never far from my mind how privileged I am to live this life.

Life is meant to be lived. 🌸

Why are we all wearing shoe covers? No we're not going into a super clean factory or medical unit.

Raising our children, we believe in nurturing openess to new cultures, religions, traditions etc. This shows them that there is no one way of seeing the world, but many different ways, through different lenses. Not right or wrong, but simply different.

So when we heard that the beautiful temple that we've watched being built in Auckland over the past few years was open for viewing, hubby and I jumped at the chance to show the kids a new perspective.

To say it was beautiful was an understatement. The workmanship was immaculate and the contemplation areas were magical.

Our eyes and hearts were opened with this beautiful experience. 🙏

What a beautiful sight to end this productive Tuesday. I love sunsets 🥰

Celebrating the end of one season and the entrance of another.

As much as I love summer, autumn brings its own charm, beauty and exotic colours,

I loved taking my son and his friend to watch the spectacle across the water.

All my values are tied up in this moment -
beauty | connection | joy 💥

Here’s a reminder to enjoy the small stuff and make more of the small stuff count.

Some days will be fun and other days you need to bring the fun. 🌶️

When my 13yo asked to be a chilli pepper for sports day, my first thoughts were ‘what a pain! I’ll have to rush to the costume shop after work and he’ll only wear the costume once, it’ll be a waste of money.’

But then I stopped those thoughts and chose joy instead. I got the costume.

He loved the sports day and when he got home I dressed up too just for a laugh. 🍌

We had a good giggle and he’s planning to be a chili for Halloween too (I won’t be doing the same 😜).

It’s been a beautiful weekend 🤩
Here’s a loving reminder that you and only you are the one who can bring that beauty, calm and energy into your work week.

You decide how to react. You get to choose what will anger you or energize you. You’ve got this. Have a good week 🔹

I said NO!!

Is this task critical to do right now?

You cannot grow a business if you react to everything that comes your way, like:

🔹problems
🔹new information
🔹new product development
🔹customer service.

These all need to be attended to, yes, but not at the expense of your growth. Carve out time that is untouchable, for you to focus on that one area that will move the dial and protect that time fiercely!

You can be very busy doing what has to be done but not what is going to grow your business.

Marketing can sometimes be overwhelming and while it is very important in your business, it is one element that you should focus on for a period of time, put the strategy in place, implement and move on. It should not take over your day!

Running your business and making a profit is the most important thing. Focus on areas that matter.

A great, well thought out marketing and business plan takes time in the beginning but will free up time in your day to day. #smallbusiness #marketing #focus on

Strategy is required!

Planning is key to getting the most out of your efforts.

If you want to:

🔹focus
🔹grow
🔹succeed

in your business, you need a plan!

What the heck?!

I remember the day so clearly. My manager, the CEO of a global pharmaceutical company told me that my next position would be his, CEO. ‘Let’s work on your 5 year plan to get you there.’ I could hardly believe it, I was 37. Everything I had worked for was finally happening for me!

WAIT A MINUTE!!

No, no, no! I love marketing, I don’t want to be a CEO!! What happened?

I was so busy climbing the corporate ladder that I had no idea what my ultimate goal was, and it certainly wasn’t CEO!

As Ross in Friends would say: PIVOT!!

I resigned and started a marketing consultancy and have not lost focus of my first love since then.

Don’t climb ladders that are against the wrong walls. Mindless action is not healthy action if you’re living someone else’s dream.

Calling all small businesses 📯

Social media tip for 2025:
Use social media as ONE of the tools in your marketing toolbox, not the only tool.

It can suck valuable time that could be better spent on your business.

This is where a strategy starts becoming important.

Never forget where you were and how far you’ve c

Never forget where you were and how far you’ve come.

Sometimes we criticize ourselves for where we are, not realizing how far we’ve come.

Consider spending some time working through negative self talk and give yourself some grace. 2025 could be your best year yet!

Always be proud of how hard you’re trying. #sma

Not everyone loves the Christmas holidays.
If you’re:
🔹mourning the loss of a loved one this year
🔹lonely
🔹dropping kids to the ex
🔹not feeling merry for any reason

I see you.

Please reach out to someone. Don’t struggle alone.

Vomit 🤮

These images may look like we’re having a lot of fun and we have had some, but keeping it real, I spent the first 3 hours of Christmas morning on my hands and knees trying to clean my son’s vomit off a carpet. We went out at 7am after scrubbing, to make a happy memory so that we didn’t make this Christmas the ‘vomity one.’

Please reach out if you’re struggling. 💕

Merry Christmas from my heart to yours. 🎄🎅🏻

I wasn’t happy with the way I looked when I filmed this reel so I didn’t post it at the time.

But it’s a great message to share.

When we feel overwhelmed and scared of being judged:
🔹Slow your breathing
🔹Try to remain calm
🔹Take the next best step

Leading in Life 🙌🏻
