Is it delicious to look after yourself…?

You have heard this before right? That to look after yourself is THE priority. Problem is, whilst we are aware of this, we often don’t know HOW to do it. And maybe it’s not even that we don’t know, it’s that we are so busy rushing towards the pursuit of happiness, that we don’t even [...]

Oprah’s Love Letter to us…

Did you watch the last ever episode of the Oprah Winfrey Show? I did and I was in awe of all that this amazing lady has done…. for us. And I hope for herself too. I was so touched by her words and what she shared summed up some of the greatest things we could [...]

It’s time to VOTE for YOURSELF…

It’s time to VOTE for YOURSELF…

Relationships, the intimate kind are a big topic on the radar for us women. We spend a lot of time dreaming of our prince before we meet him, then we spend a lot of energy trying to impress him, keep him, understand him, cry over him, be disappointed by him, figure out what makes him [...]

What “STUFF” are you coveting…??

What “STUFF” are you coveting…??

A friend once told me you get more done when you slow down. Take time to let the answers and inspiration come rather than perceived busyness. I found that concept hard to believe at first but after a period of what seemed like a lot of activity, I realized I was burnt out and not [...]

So What Now 2011???

Ok. So now 2011 is starting to roll along so fast and it got me thinking about how we are all going with those New Years Resolutions. And rather than looking at the year as a task filled with resolutions to tick off and then forget about, there is one major thing I want to [...]

Converstions with Bruno…….What Are they really thinking?

Ok ladies I’m going to share a treasure I’ve unearthed recently, my friend Bruno! I’ve decided the only way to know what men are thinking, is to ask them! Sure there’s nothing like our girl time but sometimes we just talk it in circles and while our girls are good for the consoling and giggling,  [...]

Living in the Social Network….

“We lived in farms, then we lived in cities and now we’re gonna live on the internet”
~Sean Parker.. (The Social Network, 2010) I’ve just seen the movie, “The Social Network”, about the founders of facebook and I loved it! The movie is not so much a reflection on the users of facebook, but the relationships [...]

Reunite yourself with someone you love!

Reunite yourself with someone you love!

“I like to see people reunited, I like to see people run to each other, I like the kissing and the crying, I like the impatience, the stories that the mouth can’t tell fast enough, the ears that aren’t big enough, the eyes that can’t take in all of the change, I like the hugging, [...]
