Do you realise the miracle of the mistake?
Talking about the “miracle of the mistake” is one of my favourite topics. I think it is because – as a recovering perfectionist – I found making mistakes incredibly painful, especially in my youth. I was so mistake averse that I would rather not do something if I...
The science of habits simplified
When I think about the essence of the work we do with individuals, leaders, teams and organisations, we are really the architects of behaviour change. We support our clients to change the structure of their brains, change their habits and get better outcomes, whether...
What is YOUR formula for SUCCESS?
The last 5 years have seen our business go from strength to strength. I often feel like pinching myself to have the privilege of doing work I love. Yes, it comes with huge pressure, very long hours at times (this last month has been very intense, and I haven ‘t stuck...
The Power of 10%

Boundaried people are BRILLIANT!
For me, boundaried people are brilliant to work with. I always know where I stand, I know I won’t hear promises that can’t be delivered on and can rely on them to push back if my requests are unreasonable. They will be direct (with respect and empathy) without fearing...
Swap perfect for progress!
Fixed mindset and perfectionism typically go hand in hand. Perfectionism is the act of always having to be perfect, never allowing mistakes and concerned with how you’ll be judged. People with a fixed mindset think that the world is constantly judging them, and if...
Just show up!
Just show up, as you are. You don't have to look or feel great. You don't have to be prepared for each challenge or know all the ‘how's’ of every situation. You don't have to be fearless, or have all the answers, or be 100% ready. Nobody is any of these things. Nobody...
Do you shape your own psych safety?
I’d like to focus this article on practical ways we can shape our own psychological safety and promote self-love and the best environment for ourselves to thrive. It seemed apt with all the messages of love around leading up to Valentine’s Day. All too often, we...
