I choose FUN
Seriously. I do things that light me up. If your life isn’t making you happy, ask yourself what changes - big or small- could you make to get more fun into it.

I travel as much as possible
Whether it’s to new countries or just a beauty spot a few miles away, I get out there to see the world while I’m fit and healthy - it’s amazing.

I hang out with people who lift me up
Friends, family, colleagues… find those who support you, inspire you, and make you the best version of YOU!

I do things that scare me - just a bit
Being brave, getting out of your comfort zone, the exhilaration and knowing YOU DID IT reminds you that you’re alive.

I embrace my age
Truly. Life -BEING ALIVE - is a privilege, I don’t squander it wishing I was younger. I’m lucky to be here and I’m going to savour every moment.

Past my prime? You must be joking, I’m just getting started ❤️

Who’s with me? Follow along and let’s live our best life together

Some stories arrive fully-formed and urgent, and then settle somewhere deep in your heart. Somewhere Only We Know is the book that will stay with me forever.

It’s a story about love that doesn’t end, even when everything changes.
About finding the courage to take a step forward when standing still feels safer.
And about discovering that sometimes, the places we go… help us find ourselves again.

If you’ve ever needed a fresh start, if you’ve ever wondered what possibilities life could hold, I hope this story feels like a companion on your journey 💛

Somewhere Only We Know is out this Thursday, April 9
