Burnt out mum with a dream

 It is tricky being a mum and keeping up with everything.


Our kids ages are spread out from 12 years to 26 years, and we are grandparents too now. 
From time to time we also foster children.

I remember really having a loss of identity, 

As soon as you become a mum, life as you know it is gone.

Washing, dishes, feeding the tribe, house work, school drop off, school homework and 
then full cycle of doing it all again.

One of the things I have always loved is to learn new things, I can remember that baby 
brain feeling, and then after that the feeling of just wanting to do adult stuff again, talk to 
adults and for me I wanted to learn more things and make money.

I started my personal development years ago, I always liked the idea of learning about 
myself and about others.

I then decided against what seemed like all odds to start a business that worked around 
my children, I didn't want to lose time with them, I wanted both, to work on something 
I was passionate about and show up for all the kids events and be the mum who dropped 
the kids to school and picked them up.

I worked hard while the kids were at school and then relaxed when they got home. It was 
a win win.

I have always been on the look out on how to simplify this even more, working less hours 
for more return and being able to do my own thing during the day like the bush walks I love 
to do

You know the other thing I struggled with, 

was finding like minded people, people who want to live in a high vibe state and not be 
dragged down. 

I remember going on trainings and I loved it and then when I left the training room I felt 
like I had left the tribe.

I wanted that feeling of those high vibe people around me more,
you know those people,

who inspire, who hold you accountable on your dreams, who uplift you and believe in you 
more than you do at times.

I found that tribe, I love them, and with that came the opportunity to be part of a fantastic 
online community building an authentically you on line business.

There is so much uncertainty in the world and I love that I have different ways of having 
streams of income.

Manifest. Abundance. Connection

 Manifesting. Abundance. Connections. One thing all of us need is connections. We need connections to feel safe, to grow, to love  and to feel connected to someone or something else. One of my beliefs is that if we can always give someone 5 minutes of your time. In that 5 minutes of genuinely giving someone your time and attention, connections can be made.  The secret to this strategy is to have good boundaries so that you don't become the person who has to listen to everyone's story over and over and it become draining on yourself.  Most people wouldn't be able to tell you the last time someone took a straight 5 minutes to listen and communicate without other distraction. Yet this form of communication is the most important. In that 5 minutes you could have unknowingly been someone's light house, someone could have been having the worst day ever, and your kindness of just listening, talking and being there 100% just for 5 minutes can change the protectory of their day,

Special Needs Children - Angels that walk the Earth

Over the years I have had a fair bit to do with children with special needs and their parents. The sheer love and determination from parents of special needs children, shines though, and parents learn ways to manage different problems they have to overcome. Years ago as a teenager I used to visit a friends brother in a residential care home for children. My first visit left me feeling sad and overwhelmed. Being a teenager and really thinking mostly about myself, I felt I had enough issues in my own life to deal with, growing up seemed hard enough at the time. So I choose not to go back and visit again.  Something inside me keep bugging me and months later I returned to the home and my visits become weekly Friday night visits.  My love for these children grew and grew to the point I gave up Happy Hour at work. Remember I was a teenager, happy hour in the middle of town on a Friday night was a ton of fun.  Something inside me gave my night away in order to visit my friends at the h

Welcome to 2015, Let us make it the best year yet.

Happy New Year to you all.  It is hard to believe how quickly the days, months and years roll by.  How was 2014 for you? Hopefully it was a good year for you.  What would you like 2015 to hold?   We all have goals and dreams, some we achieve and some we just don't. Sometimes we can get caught up in the thought the dreams are for others. I truly believe that if someone out there is doing what I want to do, then why can't I.  Often what stops us are our self limiting beliefs.  Sometimes we can hold a fear of failure, so it is easier not to try because we might fail, and who wants to fail.  Let us change our meaning of failure, failure is merely feedback.  Every time something doesn't work out the way we think, we learn not to do it that way, so we try another way.  Failure can be very useful and maybe try changing the wording to feedback. I believe Success is a Birth Right. Every one has a right to be successful. Success is a personal journey, so the meaning of succe
