Making school lunches is a form of parental torture. Like trying to find lost school jumpers and listening to preps read The Dog Walked Down the Road school readers 5 nights a week (yes I know we are supposed filling in the reading journal 7 nights a week but no one does that do they?)

In my meetings with mums who are returning to work, there is often one overriding fear. No, it’s not what to wear to an interview (although that is probably number 2). “I have been out of the workforce for too long, no-one is going to want to hire me” There are so many reasons that […] Read more…
Still not ready? How does December go so fast? Right. It’s too late to order online for Christmas. Breathe. It’s OK. My last gift post is some of my favourite Geelong and Bellarine goodies so you can buy local. Or at least get a voucher from. It will help keep the money in our community, […] Read more…

Do you love lists? I love lists. I probably spend more time making lists than actually actioning things on the lists. I know it drives my people mad, especially when I lose my list. You do not want to be around me on those days. I actually have no idea what I am doing without […] Read more…
In my previous role, I had the great pleasure of working for Cotton On. You may have heard amazing things about the working environment at Cotton On Head Office…and most of them are true. Never a dull moment and no day the same, it was an exciting place to work. The one thing that resonates […] Read more…
When you write a blog you find yourself wondering if anyone is reading. Other than the family of course (Hi Mum and Dad). So it was a wonderful surprise last week to have 3 different people come up to me and say they follow my blog and they like it. Now I was sure it […] Read more…
