LEAD YOURSELF WELL
You cannot lead a business, a team or a life well if you are not leading yourself well. That belief is my mission. The question I keep coming back to is how do I lead myself well? Everything I do now is my answer, offered in service of others who want to lead themselves well too.
For me, it starts with taking care of yourself, moves to knowing yourself, and arrives at creating value from what you find.
Writing is the tool I use to practise it: a way to check in on my well-being, notice what keeps showing up in my life, and turn what I’ve lived into something that can serve someone else.
I share that work through my book, my essays, keynotes and workshops, and programmes for teams.
THE BOOK
The Self-Love Mindset
What does it mean to build a fulfilling life while taking care of the person living it?
In The Self-Love Mindset, I draw on my experiences of leadership, motherhood and burnout to explore how we care for ourselves, understand who we are and use what we know to contribute.
Part memoir and part practical guide, the book brings together personal stories, reflective questions and practices around self-care, self-awareness and service. It invites you to examine the expectations you’ve been living by, recognise your needs and strengths, and make choices that support both your wellbeing and what matters to you.
At its heart is a philosophy I keep returning to: Love Yourself. Know Yourself. Create Value..
FOR TEAMS AND ORGANIZATIONS
LEAD YOURSELF WELL, TOGETHER
Teams do their best work when the people in them are well.
I bring The Self-Love Mindset into organisations through keynotes, workshops and year-long programmes built around the book and its companion journals, so teams can practise self-care, self-awareness and contribution together, one quarter at a time.
MY PHILOSOPHY FOR LEADING YOURSELF WELL.
My experiences keep bringing me back to three practices.
LOVE YOURSELF
Care for the person living this life. Pay attention to what sustains you.
KNOW YOURSELF
Get curious about your stories, patterns, strengths and desires. Notice what your life is teaching you.
CREATE VALUE
Give expression to what you discover—in what you make, how you live and what you contribute.
Together, they are what leading yourself well looks like for me.
THE SELF-WRITTEN LIFE
I write to understand what I’ve lived, question what I’ve come to believe and discover what matters to me now.
In The Self-Written Life, I share that unfolding exploration: personal stories and reflections on knowing ourselves, leading ourselves well and finding the courage to choose and create.
This is an invitation to pause, recognise something in your own experience and consider what you want to carry into the next chapter.
