Slowly Dying Inside
Ever felt like a fraud? That you don’t know enough and are less of an expert than others perceive you to be? In 62 studies, with over 14,161 participants, the prevalence rates of impostor syndrome varied widely from 9% to 82% largely depending on the screening tool and cutoff used to assess the symptoms.

How To Lose Friends And Influence No One
27 year old me was so naive. Allow me to set the scene for you: I’m at this hole-in-the-wall Greek Restaurant called Estia’s with my sister Natasha and her friend. I’m feeling like Tanya 2.0 after a life-changing personal development seminar a few months before. And Ella (the friend) shares with me that she has […]
Have You Heard The News?
Have you heard the news? Elon Musk is selling all his possessions in his plight to colonise Mars. A billionaire, who could have anything he wants in the world, has decided to downsize, and sell his last remaining home, a 47-acre Bay Area estate, hits the market for $37.5 million.

Swimming In A Sea Of Deb
“Save 10% of your income!” Thanks to The Richest Man in Babylon for this mantra. This is a great idea, but there is a caveat; if you’re in debt and have no savings it doesn’t make sense. Here’s a scenario: You’re in debt, and maxed your credit card out which you’re paying 19% interest on […]
Hey, Is It Loud In Your Mind?
“I’m a failure, my business isn’t growing as fast as I wanted it to.” **Deep sigh*** I hear this from new business owners a lot.

Tantrums And Tissues
Bonnie turned 2 last month. This had come with a flooding of people saying “oh, this is when it gets really tough, they throw tantrums, get upset, refuse to do what you say, say no ALOT.” So let’s talk about the terrible twos. No, let’s talk about human behaviour because let’s face it, even as […]
Have You Found It?
After spending a long weekend with my family, I hugged my Mum goodbye and for the first time in my entire life, she cried in my arms (you know the sobbing that makes your whole body shake kind of cry). Wrapping my arms tighter around her small frame I asked “What is hurting in your […]
Universal Principles Unfolded
In the Mindset Class last week, one of our MG Members, Danny shared he wanted to embrace criticism. We’ve all been there at one stage or another. I reflected on who I perceived to do this well, and hands down it’s Donald Trump. He could be composed and continue about his business while receiving intense […]
Angry In 0 – 100 In 1 Second
Zero to 100 in 1 second. That’s how fast I found myself fuming! (that’s faster than a lamborghini BTW). No one can make us feel anything except your perceptions of your experience creates how you feel. It is the realization that you are the only person who can be responsible for your feelings and your […]
