SME owners and sole traders often struggle with finding lasting solutions to the problems, issues and challenges (both routine and exceptional) that inevitably come up in business. There are all kinds of reasons for this which fall broadly into 2 areas: 1. Mindset. Typically, they are leaders and entrepreneurs – neither of which find it [...]

In Gratitude of Beloved Friends, Strangers & Words

By on July 16, 2011 in Authentic Living, General/News, Inspiration, Poetry & Prose

I’ve not blogged in ages, eclipsey June and the Cardinal Cross or T Square or whatever it was/is have kept me busy elsewhere.  Back now though. I think. How have you been? If you’ve had/are having a tricky time, then these words from my dear friend Noreen may bring some comfort… Other people’s words seem [...]

By on June 1, 2011 in Authentic Living, Heart-Led Business, Inspiration, Soulpreneurship

Flow: an illustration. So. Recently a bunch of ideas and stuff that had been floating around in my head for a while and things that I feel really passionate about came together in a wonderful burst of creativity and insight and a real ‘this is what you shall do’ moment. And one of the things [...]

By on May 18, 2011 in Audioboos, Audios & Podcasts, Authentic Marketing, Blogging & Social Media, Client & Tribe Attraction, Creative Marketing Ideas, Heart-Led Business, Inspiration, Personal Branding, Soulpreneurship

So I was in Facebook when an Ad I’d seen before, but not clicked on, showed up again. No idea why, but this time I clicked and what I found at the end of it was so utterly fantastic that I immediately created an AudioBoo: In Awe of Jenny Shih. As I say in the boo, [...]

2 Utterly Brilliant Men… first up, Paul Fuggle…

By on April 26, 2011 in Audioboos, Audios & Podcasts, Heart-Led Business, Inspiration, Recommended Resources, Soulpreneurship

So, I was saying… I’ve been working with these 2 amazing guys of late… in totally different ways and on entirely separate projects… although they actually have a fair bit in common in terms of style and values etc. One of them is Paul Fuggle. I guess he’s a ‘business mentor’, but that doesn’t really [...]

And another month has passed…

By on April 24, 2011 in Authentic Living, Inspiration

It’s Easter Sunday… evening of, and I’m sat on the bed in the guest room at my parents’ house in Melton Mowbray where I’ve been since Thursday night… (At their house. Not on the bed.) I can hardly believe this is my first visit since September… where does the time go? I am also a [...]

You are marvelous. The gods wait to delight in you.

By on February 10, 2011 in Inspiration, Poetry & Prose, Random Ramblings

Saw a video of Tom Waits reading The Laughing Heart by Charles Bukowski on a friend’s Facebook wall…  I’d had 2 emails in the previous 24 hours which immediately sprang to mind when I read it – because they’d echoed some of the themes. When that happens, I assume there’s a message there for me [...]

Why ignoring Facebook is bonkers!

By on January 14, 2011 in Blogging & Social Media, Client & Tribe Attraction, Inspiration

I was discussing various client attraction strategies with a client late last week… ”You might want to think about using Facebook a bit more.” I said. The silence at the other end of the Skype line was palpable. ”Oh do I have to?” pleaded B (like a teenager who’d been asked to tidy her room). I went on [...]

Please Listen Carefully and Try To Hear What I’m Not Saying…

By on December 30, 2010 in Authentic Living, Inspiration, Poetry & Prose

I originally posted this on a blog that I’m about to kill off, so I’m posting it again here as I love it so much and don’t want it to be lost… I don’t know how to import the comments (or Facebook ‘likes’) from the original, so I’m posting them afresh… “I saw a quote [...]
