Here I am attempting to de-stress for Woman’s Own magazine. I can tell you that yoga is wonderful and my husband trying to massage my shoulders with his claw-like fingers, is not. Oh, to have more time for yoga! I also enjoyed doing a puzzle. Methodical, ultimately pointless, yet rewarding. Good, clean, honest fun.
Read MoreI’ve loved working with Carolyne over the years. We have published her story many times as it’s so amazing! Here she is in Closer, telling the story of how she became a mum at the age of 58. Carolyne’s beautiful son, Javeed, is growing up happy, knowing his mum did everything she could to make him. That matters more than age. He is loved, he is cared for, he is so wanted. Gorgeous story!
Read MoreI love writing these health reports for Take a Break - this one looks at the most important life lessons we were not taught in school. Hopefully today’s kids are being taught more than algebra because communication, emotion regulation, well-being, hell, even budgeting, would have been a lot more useful!
Read MoreIt’s me! Writing about me! I love doing these Challenge features for Woman magazine. In this one, I attempted to break up with my apps, which was great fun and highlighted just how dependent I’ve become on my phone and all the seductive little ways it convinces me to pick it up. Beware of your Black Mirror!
Read MoreI loooooove Purusha! I was so inspired by this story I tried to write my own list of 40 things to do to celebrate turning 40. Instead I did one thing - I had a baby. Turns out one thing can take up ALL your time. But, my list was never going to be as amazing as Purusha’s anyway. This woman is so brave, so hardy, so brilliant. Here she is in New, out last summer. I also wrote about Purusha’s Pacific Ocean Race last year and I know she’s cooking up a new challenge now which I hope to write about soon too!
Read MoreAnd I’m back! Quick year off to have a baby… I hope I’m still active and competitive when I’m older… these women certainly give me hope! A great line up of fantastically inspirational women who were great fun to interview. Out last year in Woman’s Weekly.
