Learning to ask for help
After 43 years, I’ve finally done it.
43 years of defining strength as stoicism. Integrity as independence. Freedom as fortitude. Self-determination as defiance.
Now I realise the opposite is true.
The show must go on
When I started writing these newsletters in January 2023, the rule I set for myself was that they must be helpful, hopeful and true.
As you will know from last month’s message, I have been struggling recently to feel hopeful and helpful.
Feeling not suppressing
I am a professional processor of other people’s feelings.
But guess what I’ve learned the hard way?
I have to process my own too.
Letting go of judgement
As a creative, your taste is your North Star.
So why, at 43, have I decided to turn mine off?
On compassionate leave
Hello and welcome to my March newsletter.
New subscribers; thank you for signing up. Although I should say that this month’s message is unusually unprecedented. You might want to read last month’s newsletter to give you a better sense of what you can expect from me moving forward.
Because move forward I will. Eventually.
We are all a work in progress
Last month, I shared some of the different tools we can use to help us live life on purpose.
This month, I’ve been thinking about those we journey with.
Live life on purpose
At a time of year when many of us are resolving to keep promises to ourselves, pursuing and facing change or simply but mightily weathering the storm, I offer three different approaches that have helped me live life on purpose.
