What’s not working? How can we have more fun?

A few weeks ago, when of my favourite authors Gretchen Rubin shared the concept of ‘Halfway Day’. What I found interesting was the chance to sit down and say to ourselves, “ok, it’s halfway through the year. What’s not working for me?” Some things not working for me: Scrambling to get to my desk and sit […]

learn to build an online course psychologist

Four years ago I never could have dreamed that I knew enough to teach other people how to make and sell online courses. Four years ago, today I was just an exhausted mum with a good idea that I simply couldn’t wait to create. I sat down in a cleared corner of my office, drank half a […]

I think I have a poltergeist. Though it’s not the usual door-slamming, chilling-gust-of-wind type. This one likes to mess with my technology. I have a knack for asking my husband for help with something tech-related and then the second he comes over to help me, the problem magically disappears. But I swear the dishwasher wouldn’t […]

This past weekend I FINALLY got to meet up with my OG soulful strategy team. I think we talked are grazed for 5 hours straight. No one remembered to take a picture. Though I did take a picture of the platter I made. There’s a bit of Taurus/Virgo in my otherwise VERY Gemini chart somewhere […]

I recently engaged the services of a lawyer (sorry to incite terror so early on, but it will dissipate soon, I promise!). Much to my surprise and delight it was actually kind of fun. My upcoming book, social media detox for mums is pretty heavy on pop culture references. Everything from Baby Shark, Patti Smith, […]

Something you may not know about me is that I’m rather accident prone. Mind you, I’ve never broken a bone and I’ve never gone to the emergency department or anything. I might have strong bones, but I’m klutzy. If you’re of the generation who remembers the Baby Sitter’s Club books, you might remember there was a character […]

Dr Erin Bowe by Angel Phoenix

You know how sometimes you will have a moment of doubt and then a message appears at the perfect time? Confirmation that you ARE in fact on the right path? I had a moment of real doubt this week. Doubt about whether I’m doing the ‘right thing’ by sending out a weekly email that is […]

A version of this week’s blog is on Episode 14 of the Mum as You Are podcast HERE  I have a slightly shameful secret. I don’t like baby showers. So much so, that I refused to have my own. In my girls’ baby books there is literally a blank section where I’ve written ‘sorry, it’s not […]

One of my family members is known for their quirky idioms. While arguably less poetic than “one swallow doesn’t make a summer”, one of my favourites is:“It’s hard to soar with the eagles when you’re working with turkeys”Keeping family and cultural traditions alive with storytelling is important to me. Most of my knowledge of ancestors […]

Something a bit different this week. My mid 2021 taking stock post. A few points of ponder anyway. The idea of a taking stock post is something I’ve borrowed from Meet Me at Mike’s – a blog I’ve been readings since…maybe 2006? Here’s a bit of what I’m up to:   Making: Paper dolls, mud pies, and a pear upside down […]
