Because not all of us want to wear beige…
I am feeling reflective on a late Sunday afternoon in November. I've been talking loads about what has been and not much about what will be. That needs to change. After all, we're not going backwards, are we? As always, a song is linked to the blog's title. It feels like this is a thing… Continue reading More!
In the last blog, I spoke a bit more about my relationship and how ADHD, hormones and mental health are affecting it. One of the things I talked about is maladaptive daydreaming. This is something that could be linked to both ADHD and some mental health disorders. Essentially, you can daydream for hours and control… Continue reading Let me be your fantasy
Yep, another song track - but I'm not telling you who this one is by. Answers on a postcard, please... And yes, this is another blog about love, or at least my take on it. You all know by now that these last two years haven't been exactly kind to me, so my relationship with… Continue reading At the heart of it all
I am 50. I have no idea how I got here, but one thing that I've started to realise over the last six months since my birthday is that I am different. I really noticed this yesterday when I was wandering back to the car after being in the Trafford Centre with my sister. This… Continue reading Love me or leave me
This is not the first time this has been the title of a blog or an article. I originally used this over on LinkedIn as a title for an article which talked about the transition from corporate to freelance work, back in 2018. You can read that article here if you feel like you want… Continue reading Can you see the real me?
Yeah, I know; another song title and another blog quickly after the last one. But that's how I roll; music always is and always will be my first love. Gary Numan was one of them. 1979 Top of the Pops, with Tubeway Army, god, he was something otherworldly... Along with Adam Ant, before he was… Continue reading Are ‘Friends’ Electric
Before we even get into this blog, you need to know as soon as I think about the title, I am singing 'It's Tricky' by Run DMC. I need to get that out there - because it's sending me crackers! What we also need to get out there is 'it's tricky' is probably the biggest… Continue reading It’s Tricky
So before I get into the swing of this one, I want to clarify a few points. I am a 50 year old woman, I have been around a bit, and I have seen things. I am a feminist because I believe women should have the same rights as men. I am exhausted... So are… Continue reading Feminism v Misogyny
OK, I've been absent for over a hot minute, right? If I was to sit down and write about what had happened in the last two years, we'd be here for a very long time. No one needs that. Let's just say that life has been turned upside down on many fronts; I don't necessarily… Continue reading What the fudge?
I've not written in an age have I? I'll be honest, this whole in and out of lockdown had completely sapped my creativity in terms of what I could write about in this blog. I know I am not the only one, so I take some comfort from that, just! The last 5 months have… Continue reading Coaching, boundaries and general life
