There is a purpose to this phrase for me, it means ‘putting on the mantle’ or being the defender of a particular position. We all have many a role in our lives. In a day I move between coach, mother, wife, supervisor, domestic goddess (!), accountant, confidante, marketing manager, et al ……….& sometimes I don’t […]
The world is a much nicer place if we can hold it gently and with gratitude. It is also SO much easier for us to do our best for our careers, our families and our Colleagues when we come from a place of appreciation. So how can we maintain gratitude? Yes, the outside world can […]
