This is where we get up close and personal with the topics you've asked for. Take some time to read through the categories and choose the best fit for you and your business.
We don't play small in this arena. It’s time to work.
Have you ever noticed how much your environment actually impacts you?
Remember that inexplicably strange feeling when you walk into a room and simply want to turn around and leave? Or spending time in your favourite coffee shop that smells so divine and has the most comfortable lounge that...
Colloquially the word 'Muppet' can mean silly, daft or, at worst stupid. Through cultural changes, the word muppet, in this sense, has been replaced by other demeaning words and phrases which I won't linger on here. Instead, I will refer to 'the Muppets' as the focus of this piece.
As...
Childhood trauma is an event, situation, or environment you experienced as a child that left you feeling vulnerable and like you could not count on the world or others to keep you safe. One crucial factor is to break misconceptions that childhood trauma only involves physical danger or harm. On...
"Quiet quitting" is the latest buzzword for the workplace, but its presence and effects are no stranger. For the uninitiated, "quiet quitting" describes the behaviour of an employee who completes only the tasks of their position without the usual "above and beyond" vigour. They aim to do what is...
I've always been fascinated by the similarities between our personal and money relationships. Some people love money, some fear it, and some have that kind of love/hate "it's complicated" thing going on. And our experiences of intimate relationships can be the same.
With February being...
It’s a fact. Most people don’t like change. Change has two very different sides. On the one hand, it can be positive, exciting and joyful; on the other hand, too much change feels overwhelming, messy, time-consuming, and takes up a lot of energy we simply don’t feel we have. It...
Many entrepreneurs, coaches and creatives can feel pressure to churn out new ideas and content constantly. Sometimes, this comes easily – the mind is bursting with imaginative ways to move forward, and it feels great – but other times, a creativity block arises.
This can be...
It's like I've had an epiphany.
As schools and businesses prepare to re-open and return to regular business working hours this week, we could be forgiven for saying it is appropriate to remove the Christmas decorations and return them to their storage home for the next 12 months. The questions...
Dear CEOs,
As I write this, I can notice the chill in the air. The leaves have slowly but surely started changing colours, and I feel a bit of disbelief that we're already in the last quarter of the year. Halloween and pumpkin spice lattes signal that Christmas music will be in the air...
From the moment you are born, you are influenced and moulded by the people around you and your environment. So whether you had a good childhood or not, we can say that our parents/ guardians play a big part in our upbringing. For example, I grew up in Singapore in a conservative Chinese...
Recently, someone posed the following question to me, which many of us can relate to.
"I started back at the gym (insert any activity) and went regularly for a few months and then I gradually stopped going. I haven't been back and I'm feeling really down about it. What advice do you have?"
I...
The phrase “We don’t know what goes on behind closed doors” is often used to express the view that we shouldn’t judge or make assumptions about others and must be fully informed of the facts (as far as possible) before making conclusions.
This has long been a...
Procrastination is one of the biggest killers of dreams!
I think it's safe to say that we've all got at least one dream lurking in our minds that we'd love to have come true. When the magic of a dream first touches us, we're filled with excitement and inspiration. Hours drift by as...
Our idea of creativity is constantly changing, but when you think about it, creativity has always existed. You can go back to the Ice Age period and see drawings on the walls and the stories they share. We were born to create.
These days, we can use our creativity to communicate our...
When I was asked to write this article, the brief was 'How to end the year strong!'. I thought - Why is the emphasis on ending the year strong when actually, you need to prepare for the following year to begin strong?
As entrepreneurs, we all get into this hype and mindset that January is a slow...
Are you returning to the office after working from home for a few months?
Did you have a 'business uniform'?
Did you have a 'casual' uniform?
Has the office 'dress code' shifted to a whole new look?
Are you feeling overwhelmed about what to wear to return to the office?
Trust me, you are...
