Procrastination has set up a tent in your head? Waking up more knackered than when you hit the pillow?... Continue Reading →
As the curtains close on the past three decades of my life, from 25 to 55, I feel a sense of hope. Reflecting on the diverse experiences, moments, and hard work instills optimism for what lies ahead.
