Equality And Carers Week

Inequality gets in the way of wellbeing.

Especially wellbeing in the lives of unpaid carers, people who choose to make time to look after others.

More equality makes carers’ communication easier; delivering care more straightforward; and life more balanced.

In #carersweek those goals matter.

Stay tuned for more content about carers week.

Coaching Welcomes Diversity Equality & Inclusion

Every Aspect of A Coachee’s Experience Is Welcome

The most powerful part of coaching relationships is how they support the coachee’s progress regardless of any #intersectional factors which could hold them back otherwise. All of the client’s life experience is welcome during those conversations.

For instance, in May mental health awareness is topical, so is opposing discrimination on the grounds of sexual orientation. Coaching the whole person means putting everything on the table and deciding what helps or hinders growth.

Feel free to find out what coaching support is available for you at the 23rd of May event in London shown via this link https://tinyurl.com/4mf3jfwb – see you there!

“And The Award For A Successful Life Goes To…”

Nearly all of us serve someone else, in our 9 to 5, or as boss of our own side project.

Whatever we do adds value to our clients’ day and hopefully means we feel our day has been a #success .

What else contributes to that feeling of success?

To paraphrase Arnold #Schwarzenegger In his book ‘Be Useful: Seven Tools For Life’, the key to a happy and successful life includes

Knowing where you want to go

And how you are going to get there

As well as having the willingness to do the work along the way.

These sound like the principles of a SMART goal which would help any business or personal journey. The principles wouldn’t be set in stone, but adaptable to the changing circumstances we run into along the way.

When we reach our destination we might not win an award, but we should feel good about having got there.

3 Ways To Reduce Our Fear Of Failure

Entrepreneurs at the #startupshow managed their fear of failure

By the 5th of February some new year resolutions have long been abandoned.

“A vision without an action, is just a dream”

We settle for our old approach to being healthy, thrifty or creative.

Perhaps we were afraid of what others would say if we failed to transform ourselves fully.

We can reduce our fear of failure in 3 major ways

Remind ourselves that we are free to be successful, not tied to past failures we encountered

Connect our objective with the benefits we and others will get  

Surround ourselves with people who selflessly support our goal

What route do you take to manage your fear of failure?

What’s The One Emotion We Will All Know?

A YouTube Short About Grief

Grief takes different forms for different people

Some of us are quiet in our grief, returning to normal after a short while.

Some of us get noisy and colleagues realise  we are suffering for a long time.

Some people find grief comes in waves and involves quiet times and noisier moments.

However we experience it, living with grief is the one emotion we will all know in our lifetime.

However, we face it, one thing is true.  

We all deserve space, time and support to grieve in our own way.

Why Caring For Ourselves Matters

We Can Care For Others Better If We Take Care Of Ourselves First

Looking after others’ needs takes time, effort and resilience.

We should ensure that the wellbeing of people providing unpaid care is a priority, all year around, not just during #carersweek
