Love is not about feelings, it's actually about hard, selfless work. It's about commitment and unconditionally choosing, again and again to remain, to work through, to figure out, to keep going.

The Gift of Motherhood
I've discovered that every moment is a new opportunity to try again and get it right. Every moment is a fresh start, a new breathe, a new chance to love and lead and mother again. Motherhood is truly a mission, but I've come to realise that its also very much a gift.

Book of the Month – May 2020
This book is about belonging. It’s about cultivating true belonging in our communities, organisations and culture and helping us to find courage and connection. It may seem a bit odd to be delving into such a book in this current climate of isolation, self-quarantine and sequestering, but after thinking it through, we decided that now is as good a time as any to be reading about and discovering ways to better connect and belong. Once we are able to resume...

Marriage Monday – 20th April 2020
Marriage is wonderful, delightful, romantic and special. It's anger, fighting, misunderstandings and making-up. It's forgiveness, understanding, togetherness and journey.
