Ah, task and time management. If you’re neurodivergent, you’ve probably done everything “right.” You’ve bought the planners (shout out to my fellow planner addicts who just can’t resist!). Downloaded the apps. Learned the systems. You’ve tried the Pomodoro technique, time-blocking, and every “anchor” habit in the book. And yet, you still feel like you’re failing. […]

It might seem a little strange to be writing and sharing a blog about habits just before Christmas and the New Year. This is usually the time we’re told to pause, indulge, or wait and hold off until 1st January, when we can start fresh, do it “properly,” and commit with a clean slate. But

  Summer holidays — for some, they conjure images of beach days, family outings, and a slower pace of life.

Last week, I had the incredible opportunity to meet Becky, the award-winning food expert behind SimpliciB. I was really excited to meet her as our values align when it comes to wellbeing and how our behaviour – particularly when it comes to personal fuel – align and I wanted to know more!

  Happy New Year! January 1st is often a time when people choose to make better choices regarding their health and wellbeing, and this year happens to be a Monday as well (another common “start my journey” day!)

  As the seasons change and winter approaches, many of us experience shifts in mood and energy levels. For some, this natural phenomenon can evolve into Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), a type of depression that occurs at a specific time of year, typically during the darker months. In this article, let’s shed light on SAD
