Just Love
I’ve put so many restrictions on love: how and why I should love, how and why I should BE loved. Whatever happened to just loving for the sake of it? Nothing in return, just giving love to others despite what my past notions may have been on giving and receiving love. Until I free myself...
I AM… A BUSINESS WOMAN
I am her, the business woman who has her “plan b” as a “plan a” because she knows there’s no other option. I commit to the success of my goals because to me nothing would make me happier. I am the one you may hear warnings about, telling you that no man will want a...
How-to Have It All as Women
I think it is fair to say that most of us want to believe that we can have it all. While definitions may vary, the desire to balance work, life and all the in-between is a constant objective. As I said in an earlier article, I want to have everything even if it’s in small...
How to keep fit while away on business
I actually enjoy a great sweat, but given the fact that I’m writing this from a hotel business centre, speaks to the fact that my work life has some obstacles that impede my ability to keep fit. Thank goodness for the lovely ladies of The Broken Heel Diaries. They give me an all access pass...
An ‘A-HA!’ Moment At Work
We’ve all been there: under pressure, uncomfortably seated and with unbearably sweaty hands -the dreaded job interview. Whether it’s your first, second or final round, those 60 minutes – that can define your future – are effortlessly nerve racking.

The Great Mommy Debate
I admit, I frequent quite a few blogs. I find comfort in knowing there are people halfway around the world with the same opinion, sense of humour and career-centric issues that I have. One of my favourite blogs: MODG or Martinis Or Diaper Genies is written by a hilarious 30-year old living in suburban USA....
I Get It From My Momma
My mother isnt a business tycoon. She hasn’t influenced our economy or built an empire. My mother was an accountant, a stay-at-home mom and an active volunteer. Still, shes the first and last person I speak to about any business opportunity. She calms my nerves and shifts my attention onto necessary details; qualities irreplaceable in...
I Quit My Job
I did it. After years of wanting to jump out on my own and embrace my entrepreneurial spirit, I’ve finally done it. As scared as I am knowing I’m about to break out on my own, it’s this fear that motivates me and deep down I know it’s what I’m destined to do. To note:...
Your worth…
I think I always say this to you guys, I hardly know my worth; in the workplace that is. I guess the secret is out, I have started applying for jobs. Fingers crossed, the response has been amazing. I don’t want to get too excited, as we all know getting an interview scheduled is half...
Career – Validation is so overrated
I spent many years of my career waiting around for validation. Waiting for a boss, or superior to tell me that my work was good. In doing so I failed to realized that I was giving way too much power to someone who couldn’t possibly care about my life as much as I do. I...
Appreciate my worth, please?
What else do I have to do, to prove to you that I am worth it.
