My vision is to see every individual pursue their heart's dreams; to create for themselves a heaven on earth filled with love, joy and an appreciation of God's miracles daily.
Hopefully, my blogs motivate, inspire and encourage you to do just that! Nobody should be afraid to dream BIG. Don't allow the fear of failure to stop you from achieving your success. Love and enjoy life through an ever-thankful heart, and appreciate the beauty and miracle in each moment. And when the going gets tough, keep smiling. These are the words I tell my spirit on a daily basis.
"Above all else, guard your heart for out of it flows the wellspring of life" Proverbs 4:23
Purposefully placing God first in every decision I make. Because who better to have on my side, guiding my every move, than the Creator of the universe, eh?
What do you do with your inspiration?
When you are inspired, what do you do with your inspiration? I asked this question on social media because I wanted to invite a discussion on this. I wanted to know what happens after I leave the stage and the auditorium and walk away feeling encouraged by the positive responses of 'thank you for sharing your… Continue reading What do you do with your inspiration?
Inspired by the Next Generation
On Wednesday I donned my red and blue Team GB (Great Britain) kit to Longcroft School in Beverley. But this time my role was different. Rather than preparing to jump into a sand pit (I've actually never had the chance to do that in this particular kit due to injury) or, as I've been doing… Continue reading Inspired by the Next Generation

1 Quick Tip to Increase Productivity in Your Life
On Monday evening I hit the gym for the first time in a week or two and certainly for the first time since I started walking on two legs sans boot! It was exhilarating both during and after.

Sports: An Achilles Tendon Rehab Program & Videos – Week 8 Post-Op
Six days ago on Thursday 7th July, I stepped out of the boot and walked unaided for the first time since 30th April 2016. Here's an insight into the rehab journey so far...
Road to Recovery: Striking the Right Balance
My rehab journeys always teach me something. On Monday, after a rather too-intensive 45-minute gym session, I realised I had failed to strike the right balance between pushing myself and pacing myself. Here was my Monday gym program: Cardio Cross trainer (10 mins) Rower (2km 100m "sprint"; 100m steady intervals, approx. 12mins) Steps (500 steps… Continue reading Road to Recovery: Striking the Right Balance
A weekend wedding in Manchester
It was a toss-up between a post about my wonderful weekend at my darling cousin's wedding or one on food prep. Hmmm I wonder which one is more inspiring for a Monday! I can't believe my cousin is entering into marital bliss from Saturday! She's MY AGE. It's at this point and with every wedding… Continue reading A weekend wedding in Manchester
Black Lives Matter? Here’s what I think about that.
This past couple of days has been absolutely insane in my life and the world in general! I am never one to talk politics or to really actively engage in too much of what is going on in the world. It's not me being ignorant. The reason I actively disengage is because most of it… Continue reading Black Lives Matter? Here’s what I think about that.
