Twilight Marie Curie Walk 10

Twilight Marie Curie Walk 10

If you are registered for my regular coaching newsletter you will know that I was taking part in the Marie Curie Walk 10 at Killerton House in Devon on the Bank Holiday weekend. The walk was organised for the Saturday evening. Starting at 6.30pm and culminating back in front of the house for picnics, music and fireworks. The fireworks are set off at 10pm to coincide with the Marie Curie nurses shift change time and this makes it more poignant.

It was a lovely evening, the weather was perfect and the walk was challenging without being a beast! If you like walking and you are looking for a good cause, I highly recommend Marie Curie Walk 10, as the volunteers are adorable, kind, funny, helpful and grateful. They are all local people giving up their time for us to enjoy our walks. There are still a couple of walks before the end of the summer so get yourself booked on and get fit, raise money and have fun!

Only they have not been taught about the importance of discovering each client’s core values before embarking on change work.

Like these beautiful rock steps, all full of promise and leading nowhere, the non-enlightened coach, who does not know his/her client’s core values, will be taking steps to nowhere. As will the coach who has taken the time to Read More

Segway Life Coach

It seemed like a great fun day out. Going to Sibleyback Lake and hiring a Segway adventure, little did I know at the time I would learn how to ride the machine and re-discover the power fear has to evoke negative beliefs.

A little bit of background I love cycling and a few years ago I had a very serious biking accident; I was airlifted to hospital and fed liquid morphine. I would show you the pictures, only they are so graphic, I still baulk when looking at them. I am now back in the saddle (not horse saddle as in the blog post, Insolvency & the Self-Employed) of my bike and riding 20+ miles along the cycle trails. Must have good balance to ride a bike, someone once said.

Segway looks like a benign activity and I was Read More
