    Why is it so hard?

    In what ways does hard work make you feel fulfilled? This question got me thinking. So what is hard work? Reality is that it means different things to all of us. I think hard work is how someone really leans in to do something. It is about applying persistent effort to achieve a specific outcome… Continue reading

    Do you mind?

    What’s the trait you value most about yourself? I value being mindful. Being in ‘The Second 50’, I’m really conscious of the importance of living on the moment and being present.

    Get me on the plane

    List three jobs you’d consider pursuing if money didn’t matter. My first, second, and third options. I would travel and then write novels. I already have several unfinished manuscripts I’m craving to get finished. I just need time and space to create.  I will definitely do that when I retire from full-time work, but it’s… Continue reading

    First time out with the Olympus E-1: Kodak Colour Science?

    *** Re-posted with permission.*** When the Olympus E-1 was introduced in 2003, it was the first time a camera maker had designed a camera exclusively for digital photography from the ground up. And the Olympus E-1 was, in every way, a camera designed for the pro digital photographer. Not only is it the best feeling… Continue reading

    I’m brand agnostic

    What brands do you associate with? I don’t associate with any brands. I don’t buy brands. If I like something, I buy it regardless of a swoosh, label, or trend.  And I think it’s a bit silly that I should have to pay for the privilege of walking around with someone’s brand on my jumper,… Continue reading

About Me

I’m 50+ years and I’m not wasting a single day. I’m married, a mum and live near the beautiful Barossa Valley, South Australia. I have lost 40kgs+. I focus a lot on protein and am on a journey of self discovery about gut and brain health. I love travelling, particularly through outback Australia. I enjoy hiking and bush walking. My camera is my phone.I work FT and recently commenced a grad cert at uni. My views are my own.
